Isn't it funny how the fossil luddites want to freeze time with a particular technology ? They want to lock in their particular technology and stop the advancement of the competition. It's almost like they are paid to do so.
Vehicles continue to get better by the year thanks to advancement in engineering. Today's vehicles are fantastic compared to those of old. More powerful, more efficient, more reliable, safer etc.
I laugh out loud at threads like this.
For the record: I own several old vehicles and drive them regularly. The types that have " a wire from the battery to the starter motor and distributor ". Lol.
