the reason such machines don't use that kind of antiquated tech is that the new stuff is just simply better, more efficient, and more reliable.
you're looking at the past with rose tinted glasses like someone with modern indoor plumbing wishing they lived in the seventeen hundreds... but not realizing that they had to wipe their asses with corn cobs and used rags etc and shut in an outhouse and washed their clothes maybe once a month.
the reason modern machines like trucks and washing machines aren't repairable is not because they use electronics, it's because the electronics they use are bespoke and closed source and incompatible from one machine to the next.
this is a very solvable problem, but it will not be solved as long as the ignorant masses like YOU keep buying from and rewarding the companies for making hardware and software that locks you into their walled garden.
in other words: if you bought a John Deere, or if you run Windows, or if you own an Xbox, etc etc then YOU are precisely the cause of the problems that you complain about-- and so you have no right to complain. YOU ARE DOING THIS TO YOURSELF.
if you demanded that Ford or Chrysler or john Deere open up and provide the source code for their electronics, if you run Linux at home on your computer, if you bought an open source smart phone etc, then you are part of the solution and have a right to complain.
