      I had a 1996 Elantra - 320k when there finally developed a rod knock. A 1998 Elantra went 310k -- the non replaceable frame rotted out and I couldn't get enough metal to weld and the hood wouldn't stay tight because of the body twist so decided to junk it but the engine and tran/clutch was still good when it went to the yard. Timing belts every 100k, oil changed every 5K, only repairs were a few alternators, batteries and a couple CATs. I have a 2018 Elantra that gets 44 MPG and its been (knock on wood) trouble free. I also have toyotas, hondas -- all lots of miles.

    Guys and gals, we are ONLY 3K away from putting Ray over that 500K mark. FIRST, check and make sure YOU are still subscribed because sometimes the gremlins get in there and dump you out. SECONDLY, if you are subscribed, talk to your friends and family, ESPECIALLY if they have an interest or love their cars. I know it might be hard but we MIGHT be able to get Ray to that mark by Easter. Let's do it!.

    I know shit all about mechanics, but the videos for some reason are addicting to watch, I learn small things as I watch. Keep up the work!

    don't apologize for not uploading for the past few days. You have a private life that should be taken from us. so do all the subscriptions. So we don't get to see your video the same day you get up. then we'll probably do it the next day. I hadn't noticed you hadn't posted in the last few days until you said that
