The problem is "true hobbies" are going away. Fewer people tinker with
their cars
Are you nuts? Kids are as much into cars as they ever were...
and way more into them than audio..
With all the aftermarket stuff available and programmable
ECMs kids can screw around with their cars more than ever.
Toss in dirt bikes, quads, and buggies and motorsports
in general are going strong.
Let me guess...you live in NYC?

Disagree. Cars are far less tinkerable. I don't know what kids do, but
the average motorist is certainly far less equipped to get his hands
dirty than a few years ago. I knew a lady who use to do a valve grind
on her car in the early 50s. I'd like to see that now. Anything much
beyond an oil change is a course.
