This is when I go back to something with a carburetor and points ignition.

someone posted this the other day. Seems like a horrible idea and hopefully something we can shut off or opt out of. Guess it's worth not getting the higher packages with all those cameras. I should be perfectly fine in my base

You'll need to get the higher trim level to be able to opt out of the ads.someone posted this the other day. Seems like a horrible idea and hopefully something we can shut off or opt out of.

Just another innovation in vehicles, brought to you by the guy who invented the “auto off” function when you’re at a stop…

No higher trims will not be able to opt out - You'll just see it on a bigger screen 12" vs 8".You'll need to get the higher trim level to be able to opt out of the ads.
I wouldn't worry quite yet. Lots of auto manufacturers (and companies in general) patent ideas that they never do anything with.

I can see it now... Ford sells cars for 40% off with in car advertising like Amazon does with phones. Don't want ads? Pay full price.

The only thing that surprises me about this horrible idea is that Google didn't think of it first.
not incredibly worried about. Companies patent EVERYTHING they come up with to beat the other companies to it for those "just in case" reasons. I bet if you look at all of Ford patents for the last 20 years there are a ton in there that never saw the light of day.
