What's wrong with engineers now days?
I don't agree with late models being hard to service or not lasting.
I service a 2003 Dodge 3500 Diesel, 2005 300C, 2008 Liberty, & a 2010 RAM 1500 HEMI.
No harder to change oil & filter on than my race car, which can leak oil all over the headers, if steps are not taken.
Change the plugs in the 300C & the Jeep, Took an 1.5 hour on the first & 1.0 hour on the second one.
I have owned several Chrysler mini-vans, water pumps were a breeze, also true of oil changes.
Some said these are throw away vehicles, the difference being, that you threw the cars of the 60's, 70's, & 80's away at a 100K. The newer ones get throwed away at 200K +.
No complaints from my late model stuff.
