Hackers can take control of cars as they are driving down the road. Of course they can do simple things like open the doors. Computers need regular patches to keep hackers away. Car computers are not patched weekly like home and business computers are. People usually have to take their cars to the dealer for a patch, which is rare. Some car computers are never taken to the dealer for a patch.

The old cars had a much better ride. New cars are so light that every bump in the road is a jarring experience.

Cars were more affordable too, back in the day.

sadly, most the folks where I live drive old junkers with no computers, so I won't be nicking me a new car soon.
