Beg to differ.....my first car, 73 Pontiac Ventura, compact car...points, cap, plugs rotor every year...auto choke adjusted every 6 months...exhaust replaced every other year....tires and brakes every 3 years or so....body and paint every five years. Drove it for ten years,125,000 ,miles, motor was using oil, rear springs were coming,through the floor, car was done. Just quit driving a 99 Toyota Corolla...310,000 miles, one tune up, original exhaust, body, paint, runs like a clock but floors had rust issues. Like all newer cars, you only had to start it once...none of this cold stalling etc. I agree when a computerized control gives trouble, it can be frustrating...but that does not happen very much anymore as systems have been perfected. A new full size car will give me at least twice the fuel mileage as my Pontiac did and blow it into the dust, and require far less servicing and at least if not far more dependable. I say again, they don't build 'em like they used to, they build em better. Ben
