I agree 100%. Plus, unless you're lucky, these cars require a good bit of "basic maintenance" that a lot of us took for granted when we were growing up. I don't see those skills anymore with today's high school boys. In fact, I would bet that if you went to your local high school 99% of the senior boys there could not change the spark plugs or change the oil in the car they drive.
