Owning Old cars 2000's

[Oreokitwizlegend™]

It is so horrible specially if the engine is like uncommon and has zero tutorials in the internet about it.

Depends on the popularity of the vehicle and the manufacturer's stance on Right to Repair.

My 1991 Miata has full shop manuals available on-line.

A fuse box diagram for my wife's old 2012 Jetta wasn't available anywhere outside of a VW service department.

What do you think about dudes who drive nice sports cars but don't know anything about the car mechanically?

I got made fun of all time by friends for owning a 2007 Toyota Corolla.

That's why I got a sex change.

when I moved to my area in the early 2000s, picked up a 2003 Subaru Forester that thing is a tank. Survived both my kids, youngest has it now in his university parking lot.

Haynes brand service manual is what you need, they are popular...

Sometimes I wish cars were more simpler and cheaper. But instead they add features to cars that jack up the price to 50,000 dollars minimum.

I offered to buy my dad a brand new 2025 car but he told me no and that he likes his 92 Nissan. He said the parts and labor for that new car will be outrageous and I'm not going to pay for that when it breaks down. And I can still find parts for my Nissan. So I have no use at all for a new car.

They do, dax. But you can still get older cars to work on without all the bs.
