Having been in the mechanic business for something like 38 years, and having been to more than a few factory tours and seminars, why is the engineering department always closed when the mechanics come to town?
And why do we need a $40 smart switch, to control an $800 body control module, to turn on a dome light, when we have know from the days of Edison it only takes a switch ($3) and a few pieces of wire, to turn on a light bulb?
And why do we have aluminum assemblies held together with steel bolts, when soaked with salt brine for ten years become one unrepairable piece of corrosion?
Being this is a manufacturing forum, maybe someone can explain this to me.
