Yeah, I don't want it. I spend the past 7 years in automotive engineering (firmware/controls systems stuff) I much prefer older stuff. Every time I hop in a newer car and it jerks the wheel from me or slams the brakes because a smudge is on the camera or a reflection. My truck weighs nearly 8klbs and is over 20ft long, I carry enough insurance to assume myself and the vehicle I hit will all be dead, god forbid it ever happens. Again my experience in automotive I have learned that newer is not "built to last" in a business sense and parts manufacturers (and remans) obsolete parts for newer vehicles faster as well (or at least the supply chain dries up MUCH quicker), we have seen vehicles scrapped for easy reasons because the repair job cost more than the vehicle was worth IMO due to complexity or availability.I could continue to blow hot air in your direction for hours. Needless to say I'm hoping to get out of automotive and keep my old vehicles on the road for as long as the government allows.
