Just read that the average car has over 30,000 parts
Found that stat in an old textbook at the library. Anyone else have a random fact that blew your mind a little?

I always pictured maybe a few hundred parts max. Then I saw a diagram of just the wiring harness for a modern sedan, miles of wire and hundreds of connectors. It made that 30,000 number feel real.

But a wiring harness is basically one part, just a really long one. They probably count every single wire and clip separately to get that huge number.

Count each wire and connector separately.
