    Hopefully any tracking would be easy to remove, I mean it doesn’t even have a stereo so wiring should be pretty simple, of course unless its baked I to the ECU or something

      The telematics module is an optional extra-cost accessory! It doesn’t come with it by default!

        You have to pay extra to give them free data to mine and sell for profit? What? Why would anyone buy that?

      I’m hoping the low price will incentivize jail breaking and hacking these things if needed. We need OSH vehicles (like local motors promised but never delivered). EVs should make it a lot more possible for kit cars to exist, but maybe soon.
