The 7 reasons you can't work on your own car

I'm sort of in disagreement with the article citing OBD-II being the turning point in a vehicles longevity. I think tighter engine tolerances and improved engine fluids have done that. Year ago you could get 100,000 miles out of an engine, since the mid 90's, seeing vehicles in excess of 100,000 miles and the engines not dripping fluids, knocking and tapping, or burning oil, car makers have come a long ways since the early days. It's sort of perfection in engine, and drive train technology.
