   I think ALL cars STILL have a dipstick - but sometimes
   they HIDE it so well you need a Wiki to locate the
   damned thing ! 99.9% are dependent on idiot lights
   or something similar.

   Anyway, my 20+ year old car (which DOES hide the stick)
   has a "low oil" message. When it comes on I add 2 quarts
   and don't have to worry about it for awhile. Always use
   pure synthetic - even if it's "low" it'll still do a
   good job.

   Several brands of cars came under fire over the past few
   years for "sudden catastrophic engine damage", mostly
   related to inferior oil delivery thru the little channels.
   The afflicted HAVE been collecting $$$ via lawsuits and
   class-action ... so likely this is not gonna be an issue
   for (awhile).

   The sad bit is at this juncture it's possible to build
   basically the "perfect" engine. Honda comes close, but
   at a premium. Electrics are MUCH simpler ... but the
   BATTERY situation still tilts the balance towards
   traditional gas/diesel engines by a fair margin.

   The LATEST insult - those water-based paints that PEEL
   OFF after only a few years. I see those everywhere.
   That's worth a class worth of class-action IMHO. Hey,
   if you can, special-order one with ONLY the undercoat
   paint ... flat grey  :-)
