WW2 enthusiasts here...BMW did not build airplanes. They built radial engines (like American manufacturer Pratt & Whitney) to power the Luftwaffe's (German Air Force) fighters and bombers.😁
Yeah that one got my eyebrow raised. He should have double checked that fact, though it's still cool to see someone mentioned they were making aircraft components at that time
I was going to say this same thing. I believe most if not all the fwd Audi's now have a CVT. I actually own a FWD Audi... An 01 B5 A4 1.8t with a 5 speed manual. It's a little ripper!
This vid was great. Your views are all over the place. For as many subs as you have, especially. That's mostly a sign (to me, the uneducated), that you do diverse content. Which is awesome. Keep doing what you're doing! Long time viewer.

The thing I run into a lot is I have more trivia-grade car knowledge than I do mechanical. I know models, makes, etc but I am absolutely NOT the kind of guy that can walk up to a muscle car, and go "Is that the [model] with the [shorthand for the particular engine] or the [shorthand for another particular engine that car came with]?" and get into a convo with someone about the gearing, significant parts to the build and what components the car either had from factory, components that were aftermarket but period-correct, other components that were only available on specific models or trims of that car that they may have sourced and installed on the car to improve performance, etc. My hat goes off to people that just have that kind of mental encyclopedia to be able to leave me sitting there acting like I'm listening to Martian, and absolutely humble me as far as car-enthusiasm goes. And, while I do despise gate-keeping from people who then take that knowledge and use it to be condescending, those that don't, and instead like to be open about their knowledge to someone that doesn't know it, thats awesome.
I've got one. One of the biggest misconceptions in the automotive world, posted everywhere, ad naseum: "VW owns Porsche." The Volkswagen Group owns a controlling interest in Porsche AG (the manufacturer), but Porsche SE (a holding company) owns a controlling interest in the VW group. VW and all its brands are under the Porsche-Piëch family.
Your channel has been around for awhile now and I think the car knowledge videos is a great idea for all the newbies that have found your channel over the years. (I actually began watching your videos almost 7yrs ago when I picked up my first enthusiast car, an NB Miata)
You missed one that so many seem to have a misconception with, not every GT-R is godzilla, godzilla is the R32 GT-R and specifically the one that dominated the Australian Touring Car Championship series edit: forgot to add a word
Great video! Here are some comments/corrections: - Ford did not invent the assembly line, he "stole" it from the DeSoto Bros. - You forgot the 3000gt/Stealth for DSM - Rear end: in some contexts, this does encompass the housing as well (like a Ford 9 inch) - Engine size as designation is common nomenclature among most Japanese engines, as well as older American Engines. In the 80's, American engine designations started to get extremely arbitrary. - John DeLorean started the muscle car wars with the 1964 GTO, where he took a full size car engine (the 389) and put it in a smaller mid sized platform. The Mustang was not a direct competitor to the GTO, at least not initially, and like the Camaro, was a smaller pony car. The Camaro was a direct competitor to the Mustang, but it was the Chevelle that is considered the main Muscle car for Chevrolet. - Ironically, VW owns half of those German brands. - Top Fuel dragsters use to do the 1/4 but because they got so fast, Top fuel no longer does it. It was AWESOME when they did. - Audi logo is also... 4 wheels - BMW's legacy building planes is why the BMW logo is a spinning propeller - Many Car manufactures either originally, or at some point, made plane engines, including Rolls Royce - Flat fours (like the VW Type II and Subaru engines) are common enough to not assume a 4 cylinder is always inline - When talking left or right on cars, it is ALWAYS from the perspective driver, in the driver's seat, so you got that backwards: Nissan is left (Driver's), Toyota is right (passengers). - Lamborghini's gripe actually was about creature comforts, that Ferrari's race cars lacked, as they were "pure." This difference is still somewhat true today. - BMW's notoriously underrate their engines, and most of the time, the advertised power is actually closer to the wheel horsepower - Mopar is not, nor ever was a performance arm of dodge. It is an all encompassing arm that provides parts for all Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler cars, somewhat similar to what motorcraft is to Ford. Dodge's performance branch was SRT, until they spun that off to it's own thing. Now, Dodge does not technically have a named performance branch.
I'm buying my first manual car in 2 days, a 2004 Saturn ion redline to join my 2005 grand am and 2003 Bonneville. I hope everything goes well as I havent driven a manual in 15 years and don't know much about these cars but it's a heck of a deal I just can't pass up
I’ve got another one that notice newbies and veterans both get wrong wayyy too often. All Wheel Drive and 4 Wheel Drive are NOT the same, they’re actually pretty drastically different. If you do a part 2, you should definitely include this! It will save a lot of people from confusion and embarrassment.
I say this as high praise. You just made a cheat sheet for newcomers. We as car enthusiasts should be more welcoming and understanding to people wanting to join us in our interests
My first instructor/basic engine course 20yrs ago was an engineer on the Yamaha SHO Taurus. Old man was smart as shit but taught like Ben Stein in Farris Bullers lol. All he talked about was that Yamaha motor. He’s probably gone now but the pride he had for that car is something I’m still looking for as a car guy. Anytime I hear about the old Taurus SHO it kinda takes me back to this.
David I know you wont see this comment but im sending this too all my non car friends. I learned new things thru this video and I know my friends will learn something too. Alot of car content creators are so corny and cheesy and try to appease the Tik Tok car people but you stayed true to who you are and I cannot thank you enough for being who you are. Thank you for everything you do. Please do more.
3:41 something important to add here is that *not every Mitsubishi / Dodge shared vehicle is a DSM car*. A lot of people are quick to think of stuff like the 3000GT/Stealth, or the Starion / Conquest, but these AREN’T DSM CARS, they’re grey imports engineered, built, and assembled 100% by Mitsubishi. A lot of people make this mistake and it makes them look dumb when they do.
I loved this type of video. I love cars, but I'm not a car guy. I got next to no mechanical skills. I learned some stuff and shared this with my son. Thanks!
The "Spyder/spider" part gets even more complicated than that. There's also convertibles, roadsters, speedsters and cabriolets, which almost NOBODY can't tell the difference
Spyder typically denotes a car that was designed to not have a roof. Convertible is typically a car that is chassis reinforced to be able to withstand being without a roof. So MX5 and MR-S Spyder vs your traditional “drop top” car
The 05/06 Ford GT wasn’t called the Ford GT40 because Ford sold the rights to the GT40 name to a kit car company in the 70s which still owned those rights when the 2nd generation GT was sold.
So much good info for somebody just getting started! Seems super basic for most people but if you are just starting and none of your friends or family are into cars this is a great video to build base knowledge!
You could've explained some car culture terms like camber, stance, slammed, coilovers, etc. Also, you could have explained motorsports other than F1 and NASCAR, such as WRC, endurance, DTM, drifting, autocross, hillclimb, Indy cars, etc.
The honda "LS" is the b18b1 that came in the base and LS trim of the Acura integra. It is the non vtec version of the b18. You will hear honda guys use the term ls and they are not talking about the Chevy boat anchor.
I throughly enjoyed this didn’t matter if I already knew some of it or not 👍 Also as someone into both the GM V8 and Honda community “An LS Swap” is definitely one of the more confusing terms 😂
It's my experience that, if you know nothing about cars but want to get into it, approach anyone, identify yourself as a noob and tell them you want to learn. I almost guarantee you 100% that the person you approach will be more than happy to teach you. And don't be afraid to ask any question, because you'll never learn otherwise.
On Mopar it is just the service parts division of the Chrysler corporation. They are the equivalent to AC Delco for GM and Motorcraft for Ford. Its name comes from the 2 words MOtor and PARts. Direct Connection was the division of Mopar where you can buy performance parts at the dealer parts counter. Also when someone says they are a Mopar person that means they prefer vehicles from the Chrysler corporation
I was hoping you would cover the Toyota chassis and engine classification used before the new TGNA. Example, An AE86 means an A engine in an E chassis of the 8th gen of the 6 version. JZX100, JZ engine in X Chassis with 10th gen of the 0 version.
ENCORE ENCORE ENCORE! lol I knew most of this stuff being that I’ve been a jdm guy since damn near birth but a lot of it was new to me as well and highly enjoyed it! I think I speak for everyone when I say drop another! lol I love seeing RUclipsrs innovate in a way that actually works and keep it up dude. Much love from VA
@10:30... And if you look at the gauges in a lot of 80's cars, there's an indicator on the speedo at 55mph, like a red or yellow line. This is because the maximum speed limit in every state was 55mph. @10:55... Volvo invented the 3-point belt. 2 point belts had been in use before then. @12:30... Here's a fact that pisses off some people... A "Supercharger" is any device that forces air into an engine at higher than atmospheric pressure. There are three types, positive displacement, centrifugal, and exhaust driven. Yes, exhaust driven. This means a "turbocharger" is just another name for an exhaust driven supercharger. I always get a few people after saying this that will insist that a turbo is not a supercharger, but it is. @13:30... The term "LS engine" also refers to several engines used in the trucks, based on the LS architecture but don't use "LS" in their names. "LS" really just refers to almost any GM V8 made after 1997. @16:20... Ferrari's are Spiders, other car makers use Spyder. This is because there is no "y" in Italian. @17:30... Lots of cars use 4G based engines, which makes swapping in a turbo 4G63 pretty easy. Cars like the Dodge Colt.

Not all dsm use a 4g63 the green fnf eclipse had the smaller base model dodge neon derived engine.

For me this felt like hearing the Alphabet song, with one or two details that I didn't actually know, like identifying the Mustang V6. I take it the Oil Crisis will be on the next video, lol.

Ex, it'd be cool if I could show this to my GF and she'd understand what the difference between a rotary, inline, V, and W engine were.
One more fact you forgot. Procharger is just the name of a company that makes superchargers
Centrifugal superchargers at that. Vortech, Paxton, and TorqStorm are some others!

Spyder typically denotes a car that was designed to not have a roof. Convertible is typically a car that is chassis reinforced to be able to withstand being without a roof. So MX5 and MR-S Spyder vs your traditional “drop top” car
There is also axial supercharging. As well as centripetal superchargers, iirc VW was the only company to use a centripetal or "spiral" supercharger.
Great idea for people who are affraid to speak during car meets because they dont want to look dumb or say something wrong !
