This is the first car we’ve had with power windows - and the first expensive repair we’ve had to do. We don’t drive a lot, and don’t need to spend a lot of money on something that only needs to be reliably utilitarian for us.

I recently bought a new toaster - the one we’ve had for 20 years finally gave out. The new one is all whiz-bang and modern; but the toaster I had 40 years ago, with none of these special settings, worked a lot better.

(One thing I was expecting in a new toaster was a grounded plug; but this ‘modern’ one didn’t even come with that...)
