Agree, and if I may add, I think cars are worse because their primary function (transport) hasn't changed nearly enough compared with that of phones (voice calls into computation/information-at-fingertips). Therefore, it's harder to justify the same exponential increase in complexity and 'smart'. Maybe OTA hardware tuning ala Tesla will prove me wrong in the future...
