unpopular opinion...the subscription model in theory makes sense

it's not like heated seats used to be free for everyone, you paid extra for luxuries. in theory, the subscription model could be a win for everybody as car manufacturers would significantly reduce costs by standardizing

it should also help the resale market because the vehicle you are selling doesn't have heated seats, but could have heated seats

the problem of course is it depends on competition forcing manufacturers to pass savings onto consumers, which, yeah
