It seems to me quality is much better than it used to be. A car today is just getting broken in at 200K miles, my mid 60s Fairlane was done at 100K. What we have today is a lot more choice for any product and some of that choice is lower end and less expensive. When I was younger I made my living working on cars in a Ford dealer and really valued quality tools most of which I still have. I am also willing to go to Harbor Freight and buy something low end that I will only use once for a special job. I am also willing the throw it away knowing there is some chance I may need to buy it again in the future as I hate clutter.
