I might never have figured out how to get out of the car, might have died there.

My 1965 Ford F-250 was the best vehicle I ever owned for maintenance. It had three options from the factory, limited slip rear axle, auxiliary springs in back, and an AM radio. Back then even the backup lights, windshield washer and passenger side windshield visor were options, were never installed on it. But I added some backup lights so I could see. It did not take long to figure out where all the controls were when there was almost nothing to control.

Sorry for getting far off topic here.
