Cars shouldn't be affordable only if you can fix everything, they should be made so that they don't completely fall apart like the late 90s E320 series. Ridiculous.

When I was in my 20s my mother had an aluminum roasting pan she'd bought when I was a little kid. After about 20 years, the aluminum had begun pitting in the bottom. She was angry and wanted to take it back to the store where she bought it. This thread reminds me of that. Who in all seriousness has a tantrum over a 19 year old car needing repairs and maintenance and wants to hold the original manufacturer responsible? Your expectations for a car are absurd. I suspect anything with moving parts wouldn't suit you. Uber and Zipcar are made for you. Please do yourself and us a favor and use them and spare us the ongoing outrage.
