For the gearheads:

If you think that engines are getting too complicated, you'll want to
take a look at Volvo's T6 engine. It has both a mechanical
supercharger and a turbocharger.

For sure, I like my old truck with mechanical diesel. The manual
windows go up/down, no air conditioner to break, no computer... you get
the idea

Did you see what Land Rover did, an app to control/maneuver the
vehicle?

I can hardly wait for that to get hacked and it will be for sure...

Oh, that's great. And because it's on a smart phone, nothing can ever
go wrong...go wrong...go wrong...

I'm a gizmo person, so I really like what that can do. Can you imagine
hooking up a trailer with that gizmo, cool! But it's going to be
hacked. Only question is what will the hacker command the vehicle to do?
