we live rural but we usually have a 5 mile radius of driving - it's not that things are far but there's no easy way to traverse without a vehicle and car/truck is most efficient time-wise. the starlink stuff is kind of cool -- i could use it to slap a curfew on the car and a maximum speed when the teen is out, all from the palm of my hand. so right there, a parent should see great insurance discounts. but no data-sharing <eye roll>, no easy discounts.

nearby we have "the long bridge". a local standing challenge is who can go for the longest time periods without having to cross the bridge. husband's record is about 18 months. the corporate trackers will be very bored scanning our habits. home depot, grocery, home depot, home depot, gas, school.
