If you're in California, be aware that there's a hidden/sneaky "EV tax" and you'll be paying (nearly) double registration fees every year. Mine went from $330 to alamost $700.

And then they'll need another permission to access your photos, contacts, text messages... They'll grab and run with everything what's in your phone.
