" Now cars generally go 100K miles or more before even getting their first
" minor tune up. The ones that suck and can't do that? They generally
" sucked back then too.

100k between tuneups has been a federal mandate since the '90s.  all
new cars can do it.

old cars are as common on the roads today as they ever were, if not
more so.  the difference is that today they're still in great shape.
the reason is federal mandates to maintain emissions and safety
performance.

" I love old cars, but do not want to maintain them on a daily basis.

my solution - tell my mechanic to give my car a thorough physical at
inspection time.  it's still cheaper than a new car.
