related voltage question

Is there anyone of us out there that had a type 44 when new?
I have seen the problem a few times on my cars.  

With the lights on, A/C, rear defrost, radio, wipers on, sitting in rush hour traffic the alternator won't keep up and battery voltage goes down enough to kill the motor.
I can't imagine new car owners putting up with this.  Is it just that the cars and wiring are just getting old?
