How do you think it came to mind? I was doing the A/C and ended up doing everything on the belt. It is NOT a simple repair in a lot of cramped engine bays. Yes, I could do it in a NA Miata in under 2 hours, probably, if I remember correctly. A lot of engine bays, even from 90-2010 are very, very cramped. So this "simple" repair ends up taking days. And yes, if you actually worked as a mechanic for half a decade, you can still do it fast, but here are my points:
1. These are colossal time sinks.
2. New car owners don't have to worry about this.
3. New bonus argument: Sometimes I wonder if depreciation is cheaper than all the parts I am throwing at my old car, entirely ignoring the time cost.
4. Old car will still feel like an old car.
