Why can't standalone companies design exteriors for popular platforms?
Why can't other companies just design interiors?
And why can't components such as Navigation systems be made modular such
that when in two years it is hopelessly outdated, you can just run down
to Best Buy and buy a newer model that just plugs in to your dash?
In short, why can't cars be more like personal computers? The technology
is over 100 years old for Anders' sake! It should be manufactured and
sold as a commodity at commodity prices.
P.S. I'm sorry for taking your name in vain Anders. Don't strike me down
with a lightning bolt. I'm now in LA area. So, I may buy you a beer
sometime. Too bad I don't drive a Saab anymore, or else I would have
you work on my car.
