Good point. as much as I like my old trucks. I will readily admit when they actually work the newer fuel injected disk braked vehicles will out preform the older ones. The only problem is when the newer stuff breaks down you cant fix it alongside the road. Im at a quandry with a 92 ford mustang at this time. It quit running. Everyone says its the fuel pump in the tank. Pull the tank and hook a battery to the pump nothing wrong with the pump. bypass the emergency shutoff and that not it. so its the throttle sensor of module or something else. 4 cyl with eight spark plugs and gadgets that do who knows what. I know they have their fan,s however even when they where brand new Y block fords and GMC V6 engines wherent really any good. It was rare to see one that lasted even 50 thousand miles. Ford made the Y block from 1954 thru 64 and GMC made the V6 for about the same mount of years. Yet the chev small block came out in 55 and is still being made.
