Gotta move with the times. Cars are cheaper these days and you get a lot of car for not much money than yesteryear. Fight it all you want, the days of cars running for decades with simple systems is a thing of the past. Use and recycle is the future, not resale.
sounds good in theory, but those things i listed have heaps of labor involved and parts cost , abs /dsc/etc /etc pretty much work the life of the car at no cost.
