    My car still has one of these, and I just happened to use it yesterday when the battery on my Bluetooth adapter died. Yes, my car is old. Given the state of new cars today, I think I’m gonna keep it as long as I can.

      My car is old enough to have a tape deck. Also old enough that I can fix pretty much anything that goes wrong, and unless I crash it, I fully intend to own it until I die. New cars are for chumps.

      Same boat with you. I like tinkering and fixing my own stuff. I love a free weekend where I can spend some time replacing something on the car. Being locked out of my own car and forced to pay someone to do it for me seems ludicrous.
