Agree on the full-size spare tire/wheel assembly where I've taught my kids
who to change tires before I taught them how to drive (although, by law,
it's illegal to teach your kid to drive in California for their first
drive).
They do have a tough time with the size of SUV wheels nowadays, where even
I lately have had to lay on the ground and lift them up with my thigh and
hands to place them on the wheel lugs (where the bimmer has just holes
which make it even harder without an alignment pin handily available).
I taught them all how to break the bead, patchplug the insides, mount the
carcass back on the rim and balance on the static balancer.
The girls hate it. The boys tolerate the lessons. Which is kind of like
what is happening here as I try to teach you Apple trolls about Apple.
Back to the topic, it's pretty clear that you pay from 1-1/2 times the cost
of your iPhone to almost twice the cost just to equip and maintain it.
Why do you think iPhones cost so much to maintain compared to Android?
Do you think this math is wrong?
What would you change to make the math more correct?
