The basics are still the same, computers can make it easier. I got this blue tooth transmitter that plugged into my data port on my pick up. It uses an app called Torque and does all the diagnoses of my motor, pretty cool.
I haven't had a flat tire in a long time. Last one, just put on the spare, drove to a pep boys and replaced the two back tires. That was 4 years ago. I don't have a tire machine, nor do I want one.
I do have wrenches from 4mm up to 1 1/2 in. I have tools that few would even know how to use, I have an oxy-acetylene set up with every torch set up, I have a Mig welder and SMAW. I have 3 jacks, one for the Harley. Metal cutting chop saw and a wood miter saw.
My stepfather was a machinist so I have all sorts of measurement tools. I have 3 air compressors. One really small one for camping and one a little bigger for portability and a bigger one for the garage so I can paint and run air tools.
I'm lucky to have a 4 car garage, all them room I need.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
