I don't want the car reporting to insurance hard breaks and such. But frankly I just find these things creepy and I just want a base model car.

Makes sense from a financial point of view. I tend to do extensive research before a big purchase and wouldn't want to be changing cars too often.

From an energy and pollution point of view it makes sense to buy quality and maintain the vehicle over a long time period.

It's tricky at the moment because we are transitioning to electric powertrains and these vehicles are not comparable to internal combustion.
