Well, here it is . . .

From 2018 model year on, if you have a Toyota with factory remote start - gonna charge you $8/mth or $80/yr, in order for that feature to work !! . . . phhhhttt . . .time for aftermarket remote start !!

The nerds have inherited the earth : Once 3G cellular is killed off, then any vehicle with over the air use of 3G, won't be able to accept anything from over the air. Maybe you can PAY to have software & hardware upgraded to 5G ?!?! . . . look out !

Happy Wednesday !

Cheers
