I would argue that....

Lot of it I agree with but more dependable? I'm sure you can get more mileage out of engines today.... but the enormity of issues with cars these days is astronomical. Of course that could be because there so much more to go wrong now. Also -

When I farmed we did all our own maintenance and repairs.... can't do that today. They've made cars nearly impossible to work on without a small fortune in specialty tools.

  Our talks about "Modern" crap products...Yesterday, I chatted quite a while with our Mechanic.

Ramgator332May 04, 2024 02:43PM

  Almost none of this is accurate

LesBaker154May 05, 2024 03:02PM

  I disagree.

Ramgator166May 05, 2024 03:32PM

  This is you complaining about things that aren't real

LesBaker152May 06, 2024 01:30PM

  My rant is backed up by THREE Mechanics at a highly respected Automotive.

Ramgator122May 08, 2024 03:39PM

  Just 12-13 years ago, Honda Elements were EVERYWHERE.

Ramgator112May 08, 2024 03:44PM

  Dude its fairly common knowledge dealerships are a rip off on parts and service

LesBaker108May 09, 2024 03:33AM

  Talked to a Nissan Service Manager about that about 7 years ago.

Ramgator121May 09, 2024 09:22AM

  I would argue that....

JamesJM172May 05, 2024 03:36PM

  Yes! I have very minimal Mechanical skills but even so....

Ramgator130May 05, 2024 03:40PM

  Your right Les

ScRAM156May 08, 2024 04:47PM

  Call yourself lucky. You can call ME wrong all you want . Mine is just opinion.

Ramgator123May 09, 2024 02:23AM

  That's insane I do believe Hondas and Tototas are bullet proof

ferragamo79115May 09, 2024 02:47PM

  My 1993 Civic went for 212,000. I REALLY should have kept it.

Ramgator120May 09, 2024 04:02PM

  We had a few Chevy pickups....

Ramgator116May 06, 2024 03:37AM

JamesJM150May 06, 2024 01:11PM

  I REALLY want a Tacoma truck but will probably get a Carolla. Thing is....

Ramgator122May 06, 2024 04:09PM

  These days....

JamesJM127May 06, 2024 04:37PM

  Try looking at a Nissan Frontier

RAMbler114May 08, 2024 04:13PM

  I have a Nissan Frontier

sstrams122May 08, 2024 04:26PM

  I'll be told I'm wrong by Board experts but cars have little value at all as soon as you drive off the lot.

Ramgator129May 09, 2024 02:34AM

  REally I had 2004 and 2009 CRV

ferragamo79133May 06, 2024 06:17PM

  Ex and I bought one in 2007. Yes they were but....

ScRAM114May 09, 2024 08:49AM

JamesJM107May 09, 2024 10:44AM

  Anyone have a car that shuts down every time you stop??

Ramgator121May 09, 2024 09:17AM

  Both our Jeeps do that

IowaRam122May 09, 2024 12:55PM

  That CANNOT be good for an engine.

Ramgator98May 09, 2024 03:53PM

  The only thing that might save the engine..
