Introduced by Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. (D-NJ) in response to automakers removing AM radio from some new vehicles. My man Pallone gets his emergency scoreboard alerts from 66 WFAN too

The cost they charge for buying a new car and the cost they pay for the parts of that car are very different things.

They will charge $50k with or without AM radio and would rather do it without.

The other side of that is that they will gladly spend more to add things they can successfully get people to pay for. AM radio is… not one of those things that will increase profits.
