Quick headsup for the Mazda owners here. It has been removed due to a cease and desist from Mazda, unfortunately.

I don't see how it's silly.
Hyundais and Kias literally have the defect of exploding into fire. The manufacturers say not to park indoors. That's a great reason not to invest in one of their machines.
I'll take a broken third party integration any day over an unsafe car.
That's a false choice. Nobody is saying that there aren't other good reasons to avoid a manufacturer.
It's all down to personal preference anyways. Cheers
If you're investing in a car, you're either obnoxiously rich or don't know what the word investing means.
Sure, we can argue the semantics of it being the wrong word, but I would argue that a car can be an investment. A necessary way to get to and from work. Even if it's ultimately a money pit that devalues the second you drive it off the lot, it's a required part of living in a lot of North America. Don't blame me for 100 years of suburban sprawl and steady dismantling of any decent mass transit.
So no, it's not that I don't know what the word means, it's maybe that we have a different understanding of the value of a car as an integral part of mobility based on our different geographies. If I want to do anything, I have to get on the highway. I'm sure if you want to do something you can walk down a few blocks to the high street.
You know what? I actually agree with you, in that context it's a (little) silly
