Dewy,
1. All caps when on a forum is considered yelling and rude. So turn off the caps lock.
2. Most of the electronics are because of emission mandates from the EPA, they are here to stay.
3. Built to last? The good old day cars from the 40's 50's and 60's went somewhere between 80K-100K miles for head work, and or rebuild. Todays engines are running without anything major, for 200,000 plus miles. Yea the good old days with 12k mile tune ups and so on. Todays cars run on less gas and less maintenance making them cheaper to operate.
4. If a guy has the diagnostics stuff he can repair a modern car. For under 150 a guy can buy a hardware/software kit that will allow him to attach his computer to his car to trouble shoot it. Works best with a laptop. And systems requirements are pretty low. Google it.
