I just want a vehicle made like they used to be made. No computer chips and physical handles I have to turn to get the window down. An entire vehicle I can fix myself when things break down.

It shouldn't be a hard ask, but here we are... Overly complex shit, with many features no one needs.

No computer at all? Gonna have to track down something with a carburetor and hope it still runs. The newest you're gonna find is a 1991 Oldsmobile.

It's a wish, not a "where can I find it" thing.

It would be nice if the option was made available.

Not a car, but you can buy a new Suzuki DR650 that has a carburetor. At least in 2023.
