Cars are getting an 'F' in data privacy. Most major manufacturers admit they may be selling your personal information, a new study finds, with half also saying they would share it with the government or law enforcement without a court order.
Safe from a privacy perspective. Otherwise they’re very unsafe by modern standards. Minimal airbags. Often no ABS. What ABS that is there is less sophisticated than modern systems. Worse structures for crash protection. No stability control. No traction control.
Plus they’re just old. Last year, I spent more on my 20 year old car than I did on my 2 year old car, that includes loan payments on the new car, fuel, tires, insurance, and maintenance.
I was being a smartass, but im in roughly the same boat mines 22 years old. Also I think yours would be 24 years old unless it was built late in the year.
Go for a car from the 19th century just to be sure. They might miss a few features, such as differential, but if you’re worried about your privacy it’ll be worth it!
They sell other cars you know?
Great.
Which ones will not spy on me?
Cars made in the 20th century are probably safe.

Get something from this century at least.
Twenty years old is this century, twenty years ago is 2003.
To be specific my car is actually 23 years old. To be really pedantic, it was manufactured in 1999.

/j obviously.
I guess you’ll have to do your research on that but you saying there is not one car for you is just wrong
This article is literally about how they tested 25 brands and zero of them passed privacy review.
I will drive my 06xB till the wheels fall off
