With all the computer junk in our cars, vans, and trucks, it costs more to replace the "brains" than to get another car. My sister just had this done on a car she was so proud to have completely paid for, and it cost her nearly $3,000. I was just telling my husband the other day we should seriously consider an antique for our next vehicle, one that can be fixed with non-computer parts. Then, you have to wonder if there will be any parts available for it. *sigh* We can't win.
