How would you tell her? By phone? Isn't that inconvenient?

*YOU* can't! *I* can! I have a button on the dash that connects me to
the house via a "long range (1/2 mile) cordless phone". So, I can talk
TO THE HOUSE (not to her) and tell *it* that I am on the way home -- adjust
the HVAC, lighting and entertainment, accordingly. If I've been out
shopping, maybe tell SWMBO (for me) that I am on my way and would appreciate
some help unloading the car. Open the garage door BEFORE I get to the house
and have to wait for it to completely open.

If THE HOUSE realizes that it can't safely open the door, the HOUSE tells

You have very clever houses in your area.
I prefer to adjust the lighting when I'm at home, not from half a mile away.
Some day, you too, may be able to afford such a place! Maybe before you have
to trade your home's equity (plus a bit?) to gain admission to a retirement
home (and your life savings to pay your rent, while there).
I prefer for technology to address all these mundane things -- for the same
reason I have an alarm clock instead of relying on a rooster to wake me
(roosters are only applicable if you want to be awakened at sunrise; alarm
clocks are more customizable!)
If the location which does my oil change is uploading my driving habits to the car manufacturer then I would certainly like to
know
about that.

By what means? Please describe the specific communication channel the car is using when it uploads my driving habits to the

Ask your car *manufacturer* what bands they use.
Is this the secret car communication network I'm not aware of?
I think maybe I'll just park my car in a Faraday cage.
You must have an old (or cheap) car. Most modern cars "talk" to their
makers. I can "get help" or ask for specific directions to a location
not present in my GPS's database by simply pushing a button.
I suspect electric vehicles are even bigger "tattlers" -- esp with their
software update needs...
