Verse the NAB trying to force auto makers into antiquated technology? Why should I pay for AM?

AM reception in cars should not be government mandated...period.
There were many economy cars that did not come equipped with FM reception as recently as the late 1980s.
AM deserves no special treatment for automobile purposes.
There are plenty of home radios and AV receivers on the market that lack an AM tuner.

Next thing the NAB will be forcing homophobic bakers to make cakes for Gay weddings.

I just received my Lexis/Nexis Risk Solutions report. They are the main buyer of data from the auto companies for insurance purposes. Luckily, only speeding tickets from a long time ago appear. No new age driving info is included in my portfolio...

About a year ago I had to rent a U Haul van. I believe it was a Ford. The radio was FM only.
