Old farts hate some changes.

If you told me 40 years ago that I would someday work on fuel injected, computer controlled cars with ABS technology - I would have thought you were stoned out of your mind. But, I work on DOHC, F/I engines and find them simple.

But I hear ya - I don't want my car braking for me, parking itself or doing the driving.
