re: "hoses, batteries, etc."
I do the basics - spark plugs, batteries, tire rotation, wipers, filters, fluids, etc. Even that starts becoming tricky, though. With my truck, rotating the tires requires a computer reset afterward, and I can't do that. Same with changing the oil.
When I was young, I replaced alternators, water pumps and even a carbueretor. But those vehicles were simpler, and I had the motivation (which means I had no money.) I'm not interested in doing that anymore.
