Not true. I just never really paid attention to the amount of fucking plastic. Not to mention the only thing I've popped the hood for the past 3 years was oil changes.

Plastic over metal so your 3800lb car can pretend to be sporty m8.
Regardless of your unfamiliarity with your own car, it really comes down to you failing to be proactive and squeeze him for more detail.

I'm familiar enough with it. I changed a valve cover gasket a while back.
Like I said, I've always just overlooked the plastic. It's all literally just shit that exists to be moved out of the way.
