My 10 year old car has 4 wheels, a good engine, comfy seats and bluetooth. Heating and cooling are fantastic.
It does not have sensors that shit themselves if you get too close to a road line, does not need to go to the dealership for an authorized computer reset after the oil is changed, and it doesn’t have any “eco” turbos waiting for their seals to leak.
What more can I ask from a vehicle? Maybe I’m getting old and cranky, but everything they’ve added to new cars is useless crap to distract drivers and eventually break.
