I'm not privy to the hardware that the cars' software is running on. Is it proprietary as well? Is the solution to truly owning our own cars "Just build your own car!"?

I'm fine and understanding of the "build your own car OS" - but if the software is tightly coupled to the hardware this isn't what I'd call a realistic option.
