I had an old Volvo that would “vapor lock” on short trips. It’s amazing how reliable cars are now compared to 20 years ago.

  In my experience it was more than 20 years ago that this happened. It was when most cars switched to fuel injection. Late 80s, early 90s. Treating a car as an appliance and having it 'just work' became so much easier when fuel injection was invented. 20 years ago was 2003, which is practically yesterday [in my mind...].
