The government stepped in and mandated the design of the automobile and the price jumped up accordingly. There is quite a bit a government manadated component tracking that goes into the manufacturing that the typical car owner doesn't know about or understand. There is also the cost of the EPA intervention required to build a car without poluting the environment. The cars before government intervention were basic transportation and very simply built and therefore what seems now to be inexpensive. Inflation has also taken it's toll on the price of the auto. When cars were simple there were approximately 12 engineers who did the engineering on a particular transmission. Now the engineering is subdivided into component types so one group does all of the structure while another does all of the lubrication systems and yet another to do the electronic control strategy and so on. It takes many more poeple to handle all the additional tasks. We had new engineers that came to work from McDonald Douglas and were amazed at the complexity of an automobile transmission as compared to an aircraft system.
