cars are built better today than in the 80’s. I had a decent amoount of cars over the years and as time goes on, cars get much more reliable. The metal in today’s cars doesn’t rust like it used to, normal maintenance beyond oil changes is rarely needed, and newer cars can take the same abuse an older car can take (my 2000 altima was proof of that). Anyone that thinks the 70’s, 80’s, or even the 90’s cars were built better than today’s cars is a retard.
granted, this is normal everyday driver cars, not modded to hell and back.
