if they give people those cars freely, why not
edit for the downvotes : i'm not proAdvertisement. I'm just considering a situation where, let's say in a city with a shared car service, you rent cars for a couple of hours you need, instead of owning a car (it already exists in some cities). I guess some people would be willing to see a couple of ads instead of paying for the rental and in that case: why not
they probably have rental car companies in mind, where if the driver has no choice but a ford with ads, then that's what they get. and you can bet your ass that if forcing ads on customers means a lower price for their fleet, that's exactly what they're going to do
Fucking hell you’re right
Free for the first year and they will eventually charge for the "Standard subscription with ads". You can always upgrade to premium. Hopefully, the adaptive suspension will then start working!
