I am not reminded of low technology when seeing this pump. Instead, it invokes the 'good old days' or antique sentiments, nostalgia. The height of the pump vs the tree and the rest of the crop are well thought and create a nice balance against the 90 degree corner in the background. The white car is a huge distraction and looks very out of place, perhaps a tighter crop would fix this, but could defeat other aspects the composition. The green tone and overexposed sky do little to nostalgify this for me, but perhaps some grain and a sepia toning with no car would give a more solid 'old' feel to it.
