Cars are too simple now and you couldn’t fix one even if you wanted to since they are so locked-down.

I mean, I'd argue they're too complex. But I agree, you need so many specialized widgets (many that vary by brand and model) that its impractical to do more than change the oil.

I was looking at a Model A on display at a dealership when I went car shopping recently. They had the engine open, and I was looking at the thing thinking "If you sent me this in a box as a 'Build your own car' kit, I'm pretty sure I could do it".

Sorry I meant simple to use. Repair and maintenance is very complex. You often can not even do some maintenance since you need specialized tools or software that only mechanics have access to.
