I drive an "ancient" or at least old car by today's standards. sure IT might be an 1981 Honda Civic wagon with only 60,000 original miles, no A/C, no power steering, manual transmission, no power windows or door locks, and no computer.

But I love the thing because it is a breeze to work on. Nothing to go bad, nothing is "power" powered.
As an amateur mechanic I love being able to pop the hood and actually check the oil level with a dipstick.....heck, I even change the oil myself when it needs it.

It constantly amazes me how few people know how to, or are willing to learn how to change a tire, let alone check the oil level.
