My car is 17 years old. It won't be long before I need to look out for a new one. Posts like these make me wary of buying a new one.

What would annoy me the most is having little to no physical buttons for trivial things, and the built in SBC to be slow as fuck. I hate lag on these systems. My wife has a smaller car with android auto and using the interface is just dreadful.

If there would be an electric car with the interior of my current car I would probably take it. It has a small chromosone display, just replace with a color one and let me control it with android auto and done.

Posts like these make you wary of buying a new one. At this point I see this so regularly though that I don't know if the usage is even wrong given how many people use it

A lot of people use it wrong. Wary would be acceptable. Leery would be acceptable as well. Both mean cautious or suspicious. Weary equates to tired and doesn't fit the context.

It's still wrong... Don't let the "language evolves" people convince you otherwise.
