I beg to differ.. You dont need terabytes of data or crap to know that cars last a long time
if they are maintained and not abused. Its been happening for decades.
You just need to open your eyes to see.. you dont need to monitor temp sensors or know the expansion rates of metals to make your car last.
In fact the original question is kinda silly to begin with.. what did the OP do before this car?
this is a very entertaining thread in so many ways..
