Yes, Spec War, I'm with you on the old days vs. today on being able to do your own stuff.

On my old Chevelle SS396, everything under the hood was so simple and you could see EVERYTHING right out in the open. On my new Hemi, oh-my-gosh there's so much stuff under the hood that I can hardly even see where my spark plugs, etc. are!

But on the other hand, I gave up on the 255,000 Chevelle because even after restoring a large part of the car, it was still... well, a 255,000 mile car!

So nice to have 364 miles (not 364,000!) and a lifetime power train warranty on my new R/T

I just hope Chrysler (or somebody) will keep that warranty going.

And as for the ECM & electricals all over the car, well, if Chrysler (or somebody) stays in business when my 3 year / 36000 mile (even though I'll never put 36000 miles on in 3 years!) warranty starts to run out, I'll be picking up a lifetime warranty because I plan on keeping this car "forever" (well, I said that about the CHevelle SS396 until.... the Hemi R/T came out!!)
