Cars nowadays are becomming too expensive and extremely difficult to repair. It would be nice for engineers to return to simpler designs at least in the repair category.
I won't even mention all the regular and specialized tools and high end electronic scanners just to diagnosis a issue.
Heck, you can't even buy a simple inexpensive service manual anymore, Haynes does not make one for this car and the Lexus info site is too expensive for casual use.
Cars now days are not going in the right direction, you put it in drive and it backs up! :-)

Yea cars were cheaper back then and easily repaired.
They all had 2 and 3 year loans that were reasonable and easy to pay off in that period of time.
I guess you could argue that they were disposable after a few years, just buy a new one. That was then, not so much today.
Cars now days are 2 to 3 times more expensive than my first house I purchased in 1978!!!
