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

Cheap electronics has made everything of cheap quality. Go buy yourself a washer and dryer and tell me if you can get more than 10-12 years out of it. Just like cars, the quality is WELL WELL below the cost value.

I was convinced when even the Nissan DEALERSHIP Parts Manager told me that parts are way over priced, when I tried to buy new wheel covers for my THREE year old Sentra.

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

  Almost none of this is accurate

LesBaker96May 05, 2024 03:02PM

  I disagree.

Ramgator101May 05, 2024 03:32PM

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

Ramgator65May 08, 2024 03:44PM

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

LesBaker71May 09, 2024 03:33AM

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

Ramgator73May 09, 2024 09:22AM

JamesJM122May 05, 2024 03:36PM

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

Ramgator75May 05, 2024 03:40PM

  Your right Les

ScRAM98May 08, 2024 04:47PM

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

Ramgator73May 09, 2024 02:23AM

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

ferragamo7966May 09, 2024 02:47PM

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

RAMbler64May 08, 2024 04:13PM

sstrams66May 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.

Ramgator80May 09, 2024 02:34AM

  REally I had 2004 and 2009 CRV

ferragamo7990May 06, 2024 06:17PM

Ramgator73May 09, 2024 09:17AM

IowaRam70May 09, 2024 12:55PM

  That CANNOT be good for an engine.

Ramgator56May 09, 2024 03:53PM
