The thrill is gone?

Alot of the problem for me is what cars and trucks have become. I'd so much rather work on my 70s and 80s stuff, I have a '21 f150 that came into work on the hook, won't run. My scanner won't read it. The shop's won't either. I don't have $1k to update mine. I shouldn't have to for them. Damn POS won't come out of park either. If it was running it would put itself in park by itself as soon as I crack the door open to spot it on the lift. I despise such "features". I can still work on my /6s and 318s with the same timing light, vacuum gauge distributor wrench, and screwdriver I was using in the 80s .. no update needed. The EPA, Ralph nader types have taken all the fun out of wrenching. I'm 56 and have gotten by just fine without all their "dumbing down", you don't have to put it in park, or repeatedly turn the automatic headlights on repeatedly after I turn them to "off" over and over again, your truck will do it for you. Being able to shift my own gears isn't even a faint option any more, no more dash vents, no more wing windows, 26 function turn signal switches, and 37 functions on 4 buttons on the steering wheel//I'd rather have the dimmer on the floor, the wiper switch on the dash, where if I reach a certain direction I'm only going to be able to reach a switch that does one thing
