The car can't keep time? How is the dashboard clock always right?

That's two different components, so they're made by two separate cottage industries in two different states to make sure you have leverage on more politicians. Connecting the two would increase the BOM by $0.1, which means a $1000 increase in retail price, and customers don't want to pay that, so clearly everything is the customers' fault.

It can keep time, but how can you schedule remotely?
