Hey Scotty it's Lisa I need to ask you a question they're doing the oil consumption test on my 2015 Hyundai Accent why did they seal off my dipstick
What two brands do you claim? I can't stand listening to you talk.
About a decade ago I had a Ford truck which had a terrible noise coming from the passenger side. But, it stopped when my divorce was finalized.
Good one , love it ,,,lol
Man, I didn't see that one coming! LOL. --Old Guy

Love this lmao!
GM once owned 80% of all car sales and they pissed it all away with greed and stupidity
Here in Australia they owned Holden, who once had 50% of the market. Holden don't exist any more. GM also drove Saab into extinction, and I note they lost big money on Opel and Vauxhall in Europe for many years. Within a year of those 2 companies being sold off they were in big profit - in just a year! GM has been clueless for many years, and remains so under current management.
Absolutely 💯 true
Lol!. The American way.😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
Also Bedford trucks in the UK.
GM has NEVER owned 80% of car sales.
Ford F-150 has been #1 selling vehicle in the world for centuries
Friend of mine had a ford lariat truck in early 2000’s. After hitting a poke and repairing at the dealer the heater fan never worked . Took it back numerous times. No fan. They quoted him $1600 to fix it. I smacked the dash with closed fist and fan was fixed. Just had to get that off me chest.
Ah, the Fonz auto fix guide.😊
Ha ha ha I feel your pain
That's how we fixed things back in the 50's.
You are a noble person.
Yeah, I'm pissed too! To use the GPS on my new F150 I have to pay a subscription fee. I'm glad I hung on to my old Garmin.
They already overcharge for the vehicle PLUS they want to charge you to use GPS?? Screw that!!!
Greedy.....to the MAX..😅😅😅
Used to have a Garmin until we realized it would only give directions going through Cracktown everywhere we went. Google maps for me.
Even though I have navigation on my Escape and other vehicles before, I've never used it. Never needed to use it. Was always able to find my way to wherever.
Yeah, isnt all this auto progress wonderful??
Others have said this but Ford and GM USED to make quality vehicles, it’s such a shame they are declining so much
They both are more focused on performance and fuel efficiency, not so much on quality and durability.
@@megacolinmillerthey are the biggest gas guzzlers around
@@megacolinmiller That's been the case for decades. Flashiness and value, but poor quality.
30 year car guy. Scotty is a breath of hand waving fresh air. Respect!!
Facts, those companies better start taking notes here.
Scotty has always been a cut above.
Fantastic person.
LOL
More like Plastic person.
Never forget my 1972 Lemans. Had some transmission work done that required the transmission to be removed. The mechanic didn't properly torque the torque converter to the flex plate. After a while the bolts backed out and it made an awful sound. Got it up on a hoist, removed each torque converter bolt, put some tite on them and retorqued them, end of problem. Later sold the car to some young kid who wrapped it around a tree the 1st time he drove it in the snow. I could understand that because those GM A-body cars were squirrely on slippery roads.
Scotty is great, tells it like it is, I’ve recommended Scotty to all my family, wish I had Scotty living close by, excellent mechanics are hard to come by!!!
I find myself rewinding all of Scotty's content. I drive manual transmission vehicles and I particularlly enjoy his content relating to that as well. Excellent work Scotty! Thank you.
That's too bad. Ford and GM used to make decent cars twenty years ago. All mine still going strong 💪

Always learning something here..keep it up Scotty
Like always..Scott's great info and his delivery spot on..👍🏻
Car manufacturers found out people would buy Sirus satellite radio subscriptions And On-Star and pay to have their car tracked if it was stolen. Why not charge them subscriptions to use cruise control and turn signals. Subscriptions to use the glovebox and the trunk. Or maybe even to drive the car over 35 miles an hour!
Car tracking from theft is not likely to happen. I know someone who reported a car stolen, the cop said the GPS doesn't work that way.
The GPS helps find stuff and relieve, but it's more complex then just looking at a phone app and seeing "there's my car."
Don't give the greedy CEO's any ideas lol! 😂💲💲💲💲
Thank you for your honesty Scotty plus all your knowledge. Keep them coming
Ford sure doesn't make like the did back in the day. I had a 1995 ford ranger with the 2.4 engine in it drove it for 24 years, hauled all kind of stuff with it. Put 489,853 miles out when the computer in it died. Sold it to a friend, he got running again and is still driving it today. Can't find that today
Ford never offered a 2.4L in 1995. It was a 2.3L. They later upgraded it to a 2.5L.
I opened it on the dodge Door I'm the mazarodi.
The Pinto would choose.
Cheese. Oh cheese
Scotty is awesome. An honest mechanic is hard to find.

7:41 in Europe🇪🇺 this car was known as the Ford Sierra, and was hugely successful
I have a 2002 Buick Park Avenue with a 3800 engine and almost 214,000 miles on it and it still runs great. Just normal wear and tear that you'll have with any vehicle.
Those engines are bulletproof.

@@michaelnomura5196 3800, incredible engine, as good as any Japanese, the US could actually make cars when we wanted to.
You can't beat the 3800 for reliability and longevity. Buicks are great, cheap used cars, usually driven gently and maintained well by Granny and Gramps. Like a living room on wheels.
" Two Companies That Are Going Down Faster Than Water At Niagara Falls " ! That is one BRILLIANT remark, from
THE SCOTTMEISTER, regarding the ongoing policies of GM and FORD !! ❤😂❤ 🇺🇸 Roland Singh, Canada 🇨🇦
GM and Ford are only still in business because the US government won't let them die.
They are not going down anywhere, lol every car maker tries new stuff. It may fail , it may succeed. Ford and GM Already going forward.
Leased Hondas for 20 yrs, now I own one (2020), never happier. Toyota was my 2nd choice and when i compared the two vehicles i liked, Honda beat it but not by much. I would have been just as happy with Toyota, but Honda had a few less newer computerized gadgets that i didnt need or want.
Generally, people who prefer Honda like the more sporty things offered. Toyota is very basic. Both are good.
Leasing can be good...
if it fits your budget.
Had RX300. Nice car. After 17 years, and 100000 miles, the fuel consumption was going up, and other glitches were appearing. I figured that gaskets, seals were drying out, cracking. The materials flash-off solvents, like paint does....only slower.
Thanks to these videos you make, I was able to find out what was wrong with my Hyundai Tiburon. It lost power suddenly one day, checked it up and down and turned out to be the fuel pump.
My mom had a Catera. After having the head gaskets replaced twice, she traded it for a Toyota Camry.
I appreciate you Scotty, even though you don't like my Chrysler 200.
It was a rebadged Opel
We had a 1998 Catera. Bought is used in 2001. At times, it would not start after haven driven for a while Ironwood, MI, Ottawa, ON, Mifflintown, PA, all on the same trip. Problem was finally identified as the alternator. It was a wonderful car to drive and it has a full set of gauges.
I wonder how the other rebadged Opel, sold as the Buick Regal, is faring. It was interesting. Buicks last sedan.
Sorry to hear about your mom's op. Or is that participle misrelated?
Well done Scotty! I've wondered for quite a few years, when will William Clay Ford Jr. become so embarrassed by the management of his company, that he wants to take the family name off of it? This company has ruined itself.
When did William Ford say that?
I would agree. If Electric Vehicles are the future, they're going to be for little vehicles that can whiz you around in a city full of charging infrastructure. EV's are never going to replace big work pickup trucks. The Lightening F-150 was always going to be a colossal mistake, as was Ford believing they could compete against Apple, Tesla and Google in the software market. What are they thinking?
@@nakoma5 Ralph says, "When will William Clay Ford Jr. become so embarrassed by the management of his company, that he wants to take the family name off of it? He never said William said to take his name off.
I had an 87 grand national with no heat shield on the turbo the 15 years I owned it. I eventually wrapped it in fiberglass exhaust cloth to keep the heat in and that worked very well and was easy. Definitely more effective and easier than welding a metal one on.
Ford and GM. What a disaster pair.
They sure are lol😂
I'm currently driving a used 2005 Ford: Crown Victoria LX sport. 3yr. Ran a 1987 GM Celebrity wagon: 2000-2007. 7yr.
The Management need to be held to account.
and Honda's now merged with GM .....they want sloppy seconds 🤭
The first car company that starts producing basic cars, without computers, CVTs, cylinder deactivation, iStop (i.e. ESS), and lower the prices to $15k, will own the market, imo. Bring back the 1960s Ford Falcons and Chevy IIs.
How about the El Caminos? I loved those.
Like, that idea now .
I bought a 2010 GMC Sierra. I planned to drive it till I could find a good deal. Still driving it but looking at a transmission rebuild at 150k. I haven't had a car payment in so many years I think I will rebuild the transmission. The discs were slipping causing mild shifting flares when cold. I have a tuner to disable DOD so I slightly increased the shift pressure. No more flares and smooth as glass, but I know the discs are worn so when the time comes, I'll rebuild it because I love not having vehicle payments.😂
I'm with you about car payments. My other tactic for a good cheap car is to buy used Cadillacs. When they are about 8 years old, nobody wants them, but they are usually well maintained and pretty snazzy. I got my last one in 2016, I think. It was a 2008 DTS in mint condition, 5 pages of over-maintenance such as tires, belts, etc., and 71,000 miles. I scooped it up for $13,200 including taxes and tags and fees all paid. I am still driving it, and it is a great ride. Just an idea. --Old Guy
The way everything is going no one can afford a car payment I've been driving my 2011 Ford Escape since new and it has 30800 km. Still going strong glad I don't have no car payment
Hey, the way I see it if it’s still in great shape why not? I don’t care what the car is “worth” rebuilding. The transmission is still cheaper than a new one and the rest of it is in good shape so it’ll last even longer. I think you’re making a good move.
What is the price of the rebuild? In your comment it looks like you typed $150,000.
@@FumariVI150k miles driven on the vehicle! A transmission rebuild depending in the car and year it could be 1k or 3k...
Fully agree about Castrol full synthetic. Used it since 2012 in my Mazda 3 Skyactive. Now has more than 300,000, runs fine, and doesn't burn any oil.
How refreshing, a truly amazing mechanic who gives honest advice without being swayed by major corporations.
2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport ES (the base model), 5 spd manual, just turned 19k, looks new, not even 1 door ding, no water spots, 1 minute chip on front bumper (dang landscapers!)
At near 72yo it should be my last car.
Smart to go with the 5 speed. If going with the CVT, try to figure a way to get a warranty replacement before the 10yr 100K warranty expires. And before Mitsu leaves the U.S. if in the states.
@@greggc8088 5spd was dropped by Mitsubishi in ‘21, maybe ‘20. I’ve had few auto’s in my life. Always figured that’s what my mom had😂.
Outlander Sport is a very dependable vehicle. I'd like one myself. My mother bought a new 2015 GT. It's at 70k miles. The only issue yet was needing to replace the gas cap. My father also bought a new 2019 ES. I think he's at 40k miles. No issues yet. Old design, but a very good little CUV.
@@greggc8088 People have been saying that for years. Mitsubishi has no plans to leave the U.S. and their sales have actually improved. The brand recently received an award for top customer service.
@@palebeachbum Not nuts about new design. I actually prefer the generation before mine.
Still drivin my 03 tacoma. It's the 2.7 liter 4 cyl 5 speed. I've had it since February 05. All i've done is brakes, tires, n exhaust. Best vehicle i've ever owned 👌
I still have my 2004 tacoma, dependable vehicle
Good on ya mate tell it how it is you got the experience and knowledge
Always good information. 😅
Overall I'd agree with the advice on Toyota Tacomas. However, we had a 2002 that I bought new because at that time I couldn't FIND a USED crewcab Tacoma. 18 years later and after having been rear-ended about ten times on SoCal freeways (I kid you not!), and BACKED INTO once, the truck had so many issues that I never could get fixed right. I used to joke that my wife either had the worst luck, or she was the worst driver ever and used Jedi mind tricks to convince the cops and the other driver that these collisions were always the other driver's fault. For example, the passenger side door would refuse to unlock but only if somebody was sitting in the passenger seat. The passenger side window would refuse to roll down half the time. I started getting electrical gremlins. Sometimes the floor shifter would stick in Park. The ignition switch would take finagling to get it to move to Start, regardless which key I used. I finally traded it for a 2011 Tacoma in 2020 because I needed a truck with more trailer towing capacity. I also really wanted 4WD for moving to my midwest hometown, but I ended up settling for a truck with limited slip rear because 4WD trucks in SoCal are priced beyond reasonableness.
"...going downhill faster than water over Niagara Falls". Classic Scotty!
😂😂😂😂
My Yamaha 950 twin Bolt is fuel injection and I love how it works.
Don't quit Scotty! You're real good at what you do!
Had a Chevy once….never again.
Scotty is a master gem. He made me love cars and engines...
I loved my 1979 ford F-250, twin I beam suspension and built ford tough, I don't know what they are making now days. I bought my first Chevy Truck in 46 years.
Thanks for the info
The absolute WORST car I ever had was my first new car, a 1985 Ford Escort. It had a horrible design flaw; an aluminim engine, with steel head gaskets, leading to the need for 2 (!!) rebuilt engines!
Instead of issuing a recall on that garbage car, they made me go through "arbitration", so I only received a fraction of what I would have received in a recall.
When I finally sold that "Wallet-waster", I purchased my first of 4 Toyotas, my 1994 Corolla. And I went from the worst car I've ever had, to one of 4 of the best cars I have ever had! I now have a 2022 Camry, another great Toyota.
I had a 1992 Subaru with an aluminum engine and it was an awesome car it has nothing to do with the aluminum engine
Subaru and Mazda both currently use metal head gaskets.
Say what you want about Ford's. I own a 2009;Ford Crown Victoria P71 former police car. It has over 300,000 miles on it. It has been taken care of. It loves the gasoline, but it is how it was designed. It has been a very DEPENDABLE CAR AND SAFE CAR. I have owned it since 2013. There you go. Facts ARE FACTS. FORDS ARE GOOD.
Yes the early ones are relatively good & reliable & are great driving cars, but the latest ,such as the Ecoboost engine that are fragile & temperamental. Those V8s are a sound & strong engines, pity Ford are thinking of making it obsolete.
Scotty is talking about the modern Fords being bad. He's said before how older Fords like trucks and the Vic were solid.
No...old Fords are good
Love your shows dude!!!!
All car companies are moronic for not offering small, cheap trucks. Ya know, like a 1992 Toyota Pickup. They'd sell millions.
I’d buy one
That's what the Maverick is, and why Ford has had a hard time meeting demand.
I'm glad to hear a honest response to the garbage coming out of Detroit.
Hey @scottykilmer! Love your work and honesty. Can you do a video on how to fix Reduced engine power readings on 03-05 Chevrolet?
My 2012 Ford Escape V-6 engine blew at 119k miles. It was perfectly maintained and serviced. I drive a Honda CRV Hybrid now…great car.
Hey Scotty my dad had a Cadillac cimaron from mid eighties and it ran great and had a lot of guts !!!
A friend of mine bought a 2022 Chevrolet Malibu certified from the Chevrolet dealership with 13,500 miles on it. At 20,000 miles, the transmission is failing and the rotors are all worn out The car makes a loud grinding noise with white smoke coming out of the exhaust. He is now going to sell the Malibu as soon as the transmission is fixed.
Retired automotive engine designer here. I'll give credit where credit is due. GM had one of the best research divisions out there. The problem was, they would release a report telling you what not to do on an engine and shortly thereafter GM would release a vehicle that did exactly what the research division said not to. Many similar stories on other design issues. The left hand just didn't know what the right hand was doing.
I have a Tacoma 2002 still running. had to get some sensors replaced recently, cost 1500 dollars, but i get another 30-40 thousand of miles for it. Worth it!
Ditto on the Fords and Chevys being huge piles of dog excrement, my friends/family have had nothing but problems with their vehicles, even a brother in law whose 2021 Ford Escape had a catastrophic transmission failure that caused him to wreck his escape
Buy a Ford, drive the best, drive a mile......Walk the rest!
My best Ford is my 2000 F-150 built in November of 1999. Never ever has it given me any problems. Just regular maintenance is all I have done to it. The new stuff isn't the same.
Plate C
Hi Scotty, I use weed eater or trimmer line. It is really stiff so it will not bend. You can push the line all the way through the hose to the end.
I had a 1987 Ford Escort coupe 5 speed, standard. Brand new, Very much like the Mercur, but faster!🏁
The Merkur was the German made ( for US market) version of the British built Ford Sierra built at Dagenham England from July 1982 untill 1991 . It replaced the Ford Cortina in UK & the Taunus in France , Belgium & Germany. They were fitted with OHC ( Pinto) CVH ( Escort/ Orion) & the Cologne V6 - some Australian & South Africa cars had the far superior V6 Essex engines. From 1984 to 1988 they were Britain's best selling car!
I can assure you there never was an escort faster than an xr4ti, that’s a turbo coupe drivetrain. 😅
@@TheMajictech I can assure you that there was, in fact, an Escort that was faster; The 1995 Ford Escort RS Cosworth.
0-60 in 4.9 seconds, quarter mile 13.9 seconds.
You said "never was an Escort faster than the XR4Ti", and I'm going by that claim from you.
@@Mr.Corinthians oh I forgot about the cossies. We didn’t get those in the states in fact the ones we had in 87 were completely different than those. My apologies old chap.
Scotty you should know about this. Insurers in NY at least are dropping Kia’s and only one insurer is insuring them but at a price of 1200 a month. I don’t know if it is nationwide or just NY
That's probably New York screwing over its customers like they always do. In Pennsylvania, my Kia costs me $45 per month to insure with full coverage.
Gotta be NY. I get my 2015 KIA Sorento insured comp/collision for $500/yr.
as in car insurance? I have my 2011 Hyundai Sonata here in Florida and pay 48 dollars a month@@gtech66
Isn't that because of the lack of ignition immobilizers?
@@timblinjerry yeah because of the theft rates
YOU THE MAN!!!!! Hey Scotty, I live in Hawaii and drive 10,000 a year, mostly highway. I have $8 to $10 K to buy a good used mid size sedan with. What do you recommend? What engines, transmissions, etc should I stay away from. Your videos have helped me soooo much. Thank you sir! P.S. NO EV EVER!
Toyota Camry or Honda Accord.
We need to vote with our feet.... call it the "Old Car Movement". Know some good mechanics buying up some 2013-2020 reliable models before supply and QC issues flooded in.
Try to charge me a subscription for car accessories? No only will I not buy the subscription, I won't but the car nor the brand.
Yet the employees want 4 day workweeks and higher wages.....probably why a toaster is not made in the USA anymore..GM and Ford cannot keep up with the demand of inexpensive vehicles?....good buy.
FYI, when I stopped working sub contracting for G.M. in 2019, the average worker had not gotten a pay raise in more than ten years, though they did get contract and performance bonuses.
During that time, production of the Cruz was moved to Mexico where the average worker makes less than a third of what a U.S. worker made, while U.S. production went to a two tier system where new workers made 18 bucks an hour and there was no price break to the buyer on the cost of that car.
The issue is not that UAW workers made too much, it's too many others make too little.
That propaganda you are pushing just isn't true.
Why don't you mention that the CEOs of Ford and GM make well over twenty million a year....leave the workers alone.
heyyyyy Scotty - the Ford XR4i was a huge success in Europe, esp when they came out with the Cosworth engine ... that car was an "everything" killer ....
Mr. SK , I differ on one point of interest. I use Valvoline Max Life high mileage oil on my old beaters. It smooths them out like no bodys business ! Best I’ve ever used !
Thank you Scotty, the voice of reason.
Ford has been making cars for over a hundred years and now they are going bankrupt oh well they had a good run if it's over it's over but they did have a great run if they did🤣🤣🤣

Toyota Tacoma willl go 4,5,600k with just oil changes ?…😮..wow Scotty 😂
I have a dead friend who thought he was screaming through the clips.
Hey Scotty, can you make the video about Toyota paint job, it's chipping, peeling, and then rusting!!!
The Merkur Xr4TI was a beast with a five speed manual and the High-pressure turbo 2.3 four cylinder. Mostly standard Ford parts on it but not the Merkur Sedan.
Ah…just make a simple decent car that anyone can afford.
Don’t cut corners. Don’t cheat. Get your hideous dealers under control.
Scotty I have a 2014 ford f-150 with 150k Mi and when I changed the oil the oil looked like a milkshake and it overheated on me and it was out of coolant what is wrong?
Sounds like blown head gasket. Is coolant and oil mixing? Milkshake like oil + overheating + white smoke from tailpipe are classic signs of Subaru HG issue, maybe same on other vehicles.
unfortunately 3 for 3 on a blown head gasket
Fords stupid water pump leaked coolant into the oil. Thats how it overheated. Plenty of youtubes proving thats what happened.
Ecoburst motorcrap ford. The only other company with major coolant issues is subaru. Ford Duratec heads have bad design watet jackets and spark plugs tear out the threads.
Kilmer can knock chevy and dodge because he is biased but they make better trucks than Ford. 2014 was when Ford F-150 went into bad design poor quality builds.
And prices jumped 30%. Cash for Clunkers took a 1/4 million used cars off the road. GM and Dodge took the bailouts. But Ford kissed barraks back side.
Nothing like peanut butter in your crankcase
What I’ve experienced with domestic trucks and vehicles ..seemingly they are engineered with limited lifespan on certain parts..either to cut cost or display new tech…they won’t engineer them like before where they last because they won’t be able to sell new ones…hate to say it but my last vehicle is a Subaru and I’m impressed…
That was some fast talking about a lot!! Managed to keep up😎👊🏼. Much Love Scotty❣️ Don’t know much about cars/trucks but, raised by a mechanic (wouldn’t teach me- I’m a girl🙄). Used to hang out in garages back in the “klunker” days😁. Picked up a little knowledge along the way. For the most part understand what you’re talking about.
Skotty awesome. Honesty is hard to find
Scotty is awesome.
Honest people are rare.
How is a Toyota generally not a crapshoot when not too long ago their brakes were going bad? Did you forget the recall?
Brakes, not the whole @ss engine blowing. I don't recall a brake recall myself.
I don’t recall any brakes going bad. I own two Toyota’s never heard anything.
Toyota fans have selective memory. They remember the issues with other brands but never acknowledge Toyota issues....like faulty fuel pumps, rust issues, etc

I'm just glad that I have a 09 camry and a 05 chevy 1500! Easy to fix and dadgum dependable!
I like watching Scotty, he’s very informed and skilled mechanic
Scotty is the best to tell us the truth ❤.
You on Toyota's payroll too?😂😂😂😂
Scotty pulls no punches.
So happy with my 2nd Toyota Tacoma. Will get another in 10 years.
Great Video Scotty. I love them
I read an article that Ford is discontinuing the mustang in 2028. A RUclipsr I watch on the weekly just bought on $100,000 dark horse. 😂
Jesus. I could be a millionaire and id never buy one.

Scotty, you have me 2nd guessing buying a 2024 Chevy Trax now...I have my name on one that is in transit. Supposed to arrive some time in January. What do you think of Mitsubishi RVR as a comparison?
Do not get a Chevrolet, they are junk. Get a Toyota and you won’t regret it.
Man, I would not be buying a Trax. Mitsubishi is a better bet
The trax will be fine.
@@user-iq2ng5cq2v not it won’t, stop leading people astray
Neither, especially if the Mitsubishi has that horrible unreliable CVT
Toyota and Honda are the best for a reason.
Great video, Scotty---But, maybe switch to De-cafe !
Yea, my 2014 Ford Focus has been reliable believe it or not, but the passenger outside handle just right out fell off and I'm single & no one rarely rides with me, lol. And the trans modulator has been bad since after the 1st yr I owned it. It's actually still under the extended 165K powertrain warranty, but I'll probably be buying a new car soon.
Golly, you make Ford and GM sound like Thelma and Louise driving over that cliff. --Old Guy
Wasn't it Toyota that started the paid services for the little extras on cars? I mean, I could be wrong, but still.
I thought BMW.
Thinking like @Jay that it was BMW. I remember Toyota tried and people lost and Toyota said it was a mistake that happened after the 2nd or 3rd year. I could be mistaken.
@hereforcomments I knew it was an import brand, but I couldn't rememeb see which one. So thank you for replying.
Toyota still does it for their sat nav and in car WiFi. We declined on both.
Transaxle differential oil burns up
And components inside damage
At low mileage on the bronco too
Do not need subscriptions for my car of my cars. I stripped out everything extra out of my mini Cooper, including the AC. Trust me I do not need subscriptions for my car the more basic it is the more reliable it is.😊
True .
Fantastic content, I love your videos.
Scotty is a blast to watch.
Scott i I had a Toyota Corolla for 20 years and very little trouble with it, and what trouble I did have was just normal ware and tare. The odometer turned over in it twice before I sold and bought new
Hello Scotty, I am your biggest fan from Serbia. I want your opinion about the mazdaspeed 3 bl. Thanks mate, keep it up, Serbia is watching you
Love your vids Scotty.
Please review the new Tacoma!!
I am still waiting on air bag replacement on my GM Traverse. So far I am continually advised by GM that the continued use of my vehicle is dangerous but the replacement parts are not available.
Yeah,that sounds about " right."
That's wild
Best to use seat belts rather than relying on ageing electronic triggering devices to deploy the Airbag!

Your BEST episode so far Scotty!!!!!
