problem is new trucks got 10 TIMES as many parts as they did 50 years ago.. Yea, lots of "NECESSITIES"... but with that comes many gremlins and more possibility of nuisance problems... Also i think the car companies and Govt " give a chit" more than they did 50 years ago.. If you had a problem back then, you LIVED WITH IT... No internet to look up and see how wide spread things were.

Even Toyota is not immune. I am glad that I don’t have to buy a new vehicle with all of the crap they are building these days. Maybe when sales hit rock bottom they will start building more reliable trucks with less electronic junk on them.
