If I can get easy replacement parts access and a Hayne’s manual for one of these, I’m all for it. I have both of those for my current car, along with a full toolbox for basic mechanic work.
Seeing EU and US auto maker get bent out of shape at the idea of having to compete on price… they want the state to step in to protect their captured market. clown capitalism for ya.
And before we start talking chinese state aid for their EV industry, let’s not forget that we also provide state aid to our daddies of the industry and they still punk us on price 🤡🤡🤡
I’m buying up vhs-c and hi8 camcorders and so many end user manuals have fucking schematics, parts lists, circuit diagrams, pcb layouts, timing charts, …
I’m old enough to remember owning things but never really to the extent you could build a whole new one from scratch and I don’t think those days are coming back, especially with the voltages involved in EVs
The high voltage stuff can stay out of my reach until I’m ready, but I at least want to be able to do a TPMS relearn and brake pad/rotor maintenance without needing to plug anything into the OBDII port.

Inverters and drivers are so tightly integrated, it’s out of reach for hobbyist, you’d have to be a full on EE to build one.
Yeah, Sell this shit to random people and there will be dead bodies and lawsuits.
I love working on my car but a day will come very soon when I’ll need to love working on my bike instead.

Can you tell me please, does a Hayne’s manual exist for a 2000 Mitsubishi Pajero V60?

Bam.
oh no, this only ships to US+AUS. I’m in Europe, so maybe I can find some mail-forwarding service…
Right into the tube!
