The article does not say for sure but it mentions some cars lost connection when 3G was stopped. Funny that 3 happened before 2 for them.
3g had a lot more channels they could repurpose for 4g/5g. They're only running 2g on a single channel so there wasn't a big reason to shut it down. At least with t Mobile anyway
that makes sense. May have cost more to end than any value it gets them.
