Problem is that we have created a disposable economy. NOBODY wants to actually take care of something they own. Most people have resigned themselves to just always having a car payment and when the current one dies, they get another one. I see it with my own family. I have tried to get my wife and daughter to actually pay attention to maintenance type items that do require attention. Last week, they came home and told me that there was something wrong with the headlights on her car because they were "dim". Yea......I'm in Michigan and its winter. Nothing that a little glass cleaner could not remedy in about 2 minutes.... Oil? Well, that takes too much time to actually open the hood and check it. I guess part of is that they never had to "make-do" with old junk that DID require adding oil, fixing brakes, etc. We created this level of being dumbed-down.
