This is why I’ll stick to old cars for as long as possible

Old cars are more dangerous; I'm glad to see natural selection getting rid of technophobes.

I'm not sure how we're defining an old car here, but I'm pretty sure a car from 2010 is not noticeably more dangerous than cars today.

Preferring a car with more freedomey™ qualities because you don't want to be tracked, analyzed and want to increase the security of your car (as in, to be managed only by yourself) hardly qualifies as being a luddite.

Tell that to the pedestrians and cyclists that are killed in traffic.
