When a failure, breakdown or accident happens, they can be alerted to send you help in the form of safety information, rescue service, fault cause or emergency services on the fly.  So as cars modernize, you can bet you bucks that more and more sensors will appear around the car and information is either relayed to the driver or the mothership.  Oil will be something a car owner/driver never see, smell or touch.  Its generally toxic, anyway.You can still buy older more low tech cars if you wanna get all greasy and dirty and be macho about it <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
