I saw this on Lenny about Jeeps. I asked someone sitting in a new Jeep if she got ads when she came to a stop and she said no. So now I wonder if there is something about the trim level or something. She said it was 1 year old. Maybe this just started.

They could also just be A/B testing shit to see how much backlash they get.
This offends me to the core. Stellantis has made my shit list, and I will never purchase any product they are involved in. EVER !

Some day every surface we look at will have advertising on it. Some Day.

Like the ridiculous subscription mouse a few months back, I'd be willing to bite with the right incentives, but those aren't incentives the manufacturer is going to be OK with. I'd take a car with ads, so long as it was sufficiently discounted compared to a normal car. And then I'd look up how to disable the ads.
Well let's just wait for the next "hacarthon" and see who can play DOOM on the pop-up first.
