Everything on the new cars is so computer dependent.

I took auto shop in high school. Some of the best times I had as a teen. It was the mid-1960s so no electronics, just basics like rebuilding engines and using welding torches. Reason I took it, when 16, I tore down the carburetor in my Dad's Chevy Impala and couldn't get it running; so after getting punished I decided to actually learn how cars work by the book and from teachers. Sadly, later on schools distanced themselves from teaching mechanical skills.
