Hi, this is Bill Sikkens, host of User

00:00:01,916 --> 00:00:05,291

2.0 Saturdays here on The Answer

with this week's Tech Wednesday.

3

00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:07,791

The car automobile market

4

00:00:07,791 --> 00:00:11,458

worldwide is changing a lotand

in some ways not for the better.

5

00:00:11,500 --> 00:00:16,041

There are some major car brands out there

that might actually go bankrupt in coming

6

00:00:16,041 --> 00:00:19,916

years, and others that are restructuring

and a big part of the cause for

7

00:00:19,916 --> 00:00:21,375

this is the fact that the average

8

00:00:21,375 --> 00:00:25,291

transaction price for a vehicle now

a new vehicle is over $50,000.

9

00:00:25,708 --> 00:00:28,458

And a lot of this is due

to the fact of what's in the car.

10

00:00:28,458 --> 00:00:32,208

So the question is, is technology to blame

at least partially for this,

11

00:00:32,583 --> 00:00:36,208

for making it more costly to produce

because there's more to it?

12

00:00:36,625 --> 00:00:39,416

We're going to be talking about that

this week on user friendly 2.0,

13

00:00:39,416 --> 00:00:43,958

as well as some of what these new systems

do, why some of them might be important,

14

00:00:43,958 --> 00:00:46,541

and why some of them might not even

be things you want to have there,

15

00:00:46,541 --> 00:00:48,833

but you're going to have to pay for

anyway.

16

00:00:48,833 --> 00:00:51,083

We're also going to be talking

a little bit more about subscriptions.

17

00:00:51,083 --> 00:00:54,291

Do you want to have to pay a monthly fee

for your heated seats to work?

18

00:00:54,750 --> 00:00:55,750
