Banna mine is a '98 C280 benz, runs like new. Newer cars have too many additions to go wrong. Ford recently recalled vehicles because of seat belts catching fire. Now how on earth does this happen? Then there is new shit used instead of air for tyres, one valve alone runs close to $100, it's all bullshit. The manufacturer that comes up with a basic car without all the stupid gimmicks will get my dollars.

I might get a 4x4 for where I now live.

Anyway  back to the thread. Why the heck does a man take a gun to church, hunting for the guys who strung up Jesus?

 

I agree that the older cars are less complicated although the newer ones are safer irrespective of that seat belt catching afire that you mentioned above. Nowadays, you can hardly fix anything yourself as everything requires a computer input. That new air is nitro but I believe you can use regular air with it too. The run flat is nothing new. We used to drive run flat in Guyana even back in the 80's.   I got a flat driving on Haley street one night close to midnight but there was no way I am stopping there to change my wheel. So I carefully drove run flat to Durban street where they had a tire shop that opens all night and had it patched there. I like the 4runner but the newer ones are too bulky. Now that I have been driving this high off the road, I am not very comfortable driving cars. Thankfully my ritual of filling up gas for all the cars only have to take me about 2 miles away.  I do this on a Sunday morning while others are still sleeping or in church.
