I remember a 1967 Ambassador i had way back then. Good cars that were
easy to fix.

These new cars will be too costly to repair when they get old. As it is
now an out of warranty repair costs a small fortune. 

Dealers are pushing leases to lower monthly payments. Pay by the month
and turn it in after 36 months or when it's out of warranty, then lease
another.

Hearing about lease cars without a single oil change. Either blown up
engines or valve rod noise going through the auctions with lease
companies losing their ass. 

Who cares, it's not their car, just put in gas and drive the hell out of
it!
