I forgot where it was exactly, but I remember a discussion on a podcast about how auto manufacturers deliberately price their replacement electronics to force planned obsolescence. The example brought up was an SUV that has a large display that controls everything from HVAC to the radio. The screen had an expected service life of something like 7 years, but a replacement price of something like $7k. The thought was that when people are faced with a price tag like that on a depreciated asset, they'll be more likely to trade it in for a new model. Maybe I'm just a curmudgeon but that would all but guarantee my new model wasn't bought from the same manufacturer.
