I agree with the simple fact that times change. I can remember when the first thing I did when I got a pickup was to bolt a CB radio to the roof of the truck and run cables to dual antennas.
I have a 79 that I have had for 20 years. Shortly after I got it I cut the dash and put a great stereo in. Now the radio is junk and the dash has to be repaired. But I don’t regret it-the kids and I had so much fun cruising and listening to that radio. Sure, if I had known then what I know now....
So I guess I can get on the list to get bashed!!
I’m just thankful to have lived in such a great era for vehicles. Thankfully I am pretty handy with a wrench and paint gun!!
