"And then I don't want to be the first in line for any firmware updates thank you very much."

Current cars, on the road right now, are already getting over the air updates from the manufacture and reporting back performance and other data. I doubt you'll get a requester box opening up on the dash asking if you want to download and install the updates. It will just happen.

Even if you could choose to ignore an update for your driverless car, that may invalidate your insurance when it all becomes standard.
