I was talking about something along those lines with a friend. Not only about the cost of a repair, but also about some easier availability of replacements.

Heck, I still lament the fact that I cannot buy wind-up windows anymore, especially when one or more of the powered ones fail to work. And are they really better except for the minor inconvenience of not having to use a muscle or two to wind up manual windows? What happens if/when you roll the car into a lake with all the windows up and the electric system shorted out and you can't open the doors? Which system is really better then: manual or powered?

That's a good point, even though I never lurked about getting a car to drop it into a lake...
