The frunk used to be standard, but now it costs hundreds of dollars to add to Ford’s electric SUV.

      Because your car is spying on everything you do and reporting back to corporate headquarters.

      This is silly because I have a car with a frunk. It is rarely opened but I keep emergency supplies in there, leaving my trunk free. So anyone monitoring my usage would say I’m not using it very much.

        I believe it’s like the lumbar support in Teslas, which were removed because apparently “nobody used it”. It’s not like your lower back moves every day so you have to tweak your seat settings every time you get in your car.

          They could’ve just, ya know, used the knobs like every other car for the last 30+ years. Why does everything have to be electronic?

        Yeah … it has always struck me as the perfect place to keep a spare charging cable, tools, emergency supplies, stuff you want to have with you, but don’t necessarily need to access often.
