Life was simpler in the 90s, and so were our vehicles. As someone who appreciates the straightforwardness of a car minus all the bells and whistles, the current trend in automotive innovation is alarming. With every new model year, the technology packed into our cars skyrockets, and so do the prices. In a few years, when I'll be on the hunt for a new vehicle, the cost will be unreachable—forcing many like me into financial strain

We are calling on major automotive manufacturers to reintroduce more models that focus on the essence of driving. Cars built for safety, quality, and affordability should not be a relic of the past. Reviving technology-free options can cater to a significant portion of consumers who prefer minimalist vehicles that meet their primary needs without the overwhelming price tag.

Join me in urging car companies to reevaluate their direction and offer technology-free options that respect customer diversity and choice. Sign this petition to show that there is a strong customer base yearning for practicality and affordability in their next vehicle purchase.
