I have often thought the OEM’s should offer a version of their vehicles that don’t contain all of the advancements and safety features of the last 40 years.
They probably could sell them at a much reduced price for those that don’t like car prices of today. Of course the consumer would need to sign a waiver stating they won’t sue when they are injured or more likely killed when in an accident.
If you park a 35-40 year vehicle next to a new vehicle the differences are astounding.
Yes, but you could work on that 35-40 year old truck with room to spare.
I worked at a Ford dealer in 1978 and that was the first year trucks hit the $10,000 mark.
Have you even opened the hood on any newer rear wheel drive gasser vehicle? Or are you just stuck reminiscing about the “good old days?”
That question is rhetorical, as it’s a given you’re just complaining about “new” stuff.
Sure newer diesel emissions have mucked up under hood access, but you can’t compare the performance to whatever 40-50 year old pooch your referring to as having “room to spare.”
