you're definitely not the only one. however, your car analogy doesn't really work as everyone has a fairly basic understanding of automobiles to the points they can hold a discussion about what's new in a more recent model. i don't think the same applies to software. plus the update frequency is much higher.
still on the analogy, with more recent models you also don't get detailed updates about what changed in the internals (e.g. "we're now using fuses Xyz mk2" vs "we've updated an internal dependency").
i guess making their update messages more interesting would require much more transparency on their development processes (e.g. open bug tracking). there aren't many solid reasons (in their pov, i assume) for them to do it.
