I’m starting to look at those old cars just to not have built-in trackers on my vehicle.

I won't drive anything I can't fix. That seems to be old vehicles only.

Whoop whoop carburetor gang rise UP!

Yes, carbs are great if you love working on cars. A factory fuel injection system these days (anything newer than the old Jetronic pieces of shit) is pretty much set it and forget it, plus if you do have a bad sensor or something, it'll usually tell you (by live data reading if not DTC). Way easier to maintain than carburetors.

Carburetors waste a lot of fuel.

Ha. Just switch to an electronic ignition, improved coil, and spark and it's as peppy and efficient as fuel injection.

efficient as fuel injection

That's quite wrong.
