lol at the thumbs downs...Did the Toyota fan boys miss the part where I said I love this vehicle? hahahaha
People are dumb 🤷🏽♂️
No, they just read the title and dislike the video
I don’t think it’s the fan boys. It’s likely that your gripes are pretty petty.
@@JazzyJames33 you hit the spot with this comment. But if this is all he had a problem with, as petty as he seems, then he just sold me on the Rev4. So thank you haha
@@DylonDylonDylon good point!
Start stop is easily the WORST modern car “feature”
Its forced by the people who think we can fix our dirty planet lol...You get money back if you buy electric cars and have to pay fees if you buy vehicles with big V8 engines...
There are a few videos showing how to permanently disable it.
I enjoyed the video and I’d be interested to see what the 5 things you love are. I’m still not used to so many things requiring an app to access many of their functions, but I guess I should get used to it
I drive alot of cars for work alot of differant ones. I love it when its the end of the day and i get into my old mazda. With all the features i want. Basics no neew eletronic features. Im happy therr are people like jeff still around. Great video as alwags
Hi Cutlerylover, I was just wondering if you're also hearing some kind of humming sound on acceleration and deceleration or as it pick up speed and shifts to next gear on your RAV4. This vlog is informative. Thanks
I used to really hate the start stop on my new F 150. After having it on a couple vehicles you start to get used to it. If I use sport mode in the F150 it disables it, but I agree it should be off, unless you as the consumer choose to turn it on.
@iPac9mm you can’t turn it off and leave it off. Yes there is a button to disable it, but you have to push it every time you start your truck or you can always run in sport mode. The point is that you should be able to turn it off once and be done with it.
ruclips.net/video/x_mCKrdfzr4/видео.html
Honestly those 5 things arent that serious, Id still say you got a good vehicle. The only thing that seems actually annoying is the start/stop feature, I feel like that would drive me nuts.
No they are not serious at all, they are all honmest complaints but this video was meant to be fun, not serious...I love the car for what its offering...
The start/stop-feature is hard to avoid though. Some cars have it for over 10 years now. Though that bumping seems weird on this particular vehicle.
These things would drive me crazy.
Can it be disabled permanently?
@@cutlerylover So, likely in a year or so - I'll be switching to an SUV - from an Accord.
I'm gravitating towards a Rav4 for the Toyota peace of mind. I'd love a Forester - but considering I hold vehicles for a long time, my concern would be long-term ownership reliability/cost. I just can't imagine it being close, but who knows.
Physical e-brakes take up a lot of space, it's hard to miss it other than the experience of using them. The better use of space is quickly appreciated assuming it's used well.
Great view of that little stream at the :30 second mark. Where is this and can you name the stream? Thanks
I have a 2022 XLE Hybrid RAV4 and only have one complaint . The inside door handle is a bit to forward and feels awkward closing the door.
I wonder if there is a way to permamently turned the auto off feature, off?
Truth is that you don't need a super strong horn to get the job done. I noticed that when I rent cars on vacations with weak city horns. My trucks have strong horns but they're overkill most of the time and the high pitch could send someone in a rage more easily than a weak city horn. There was a study on it I believe about stressed drivers reacting differently to different horn pitch and volume where the louder one was unnecessary and more provoking. Haven't heard of a city horn not working since it was too quiet. I wouldn't mind my 3 trucks having them but I won't spend on getting it modded.
On hating the start/stop function, I have to ask, did any of you test drive the car?? I have a 2021 Highlander Hybrid, no start/stop thankfully. Doesn't need it to save fuel. I would think that the Rav4 Hybrid doesn't have this feature either.
Hey OP I'm thinking of buying one of these. How was it after two years?
Does it have smooth ride on highway 🛣 like Camry? Or it’s bumpy
I have had so much fun watching your review b/c it's so realistic. I think the stop start feature is horrible. It causes such anxiety. I have 2018 vw tiguan limited the small tiguan same year they came out with the new on. And I don't have this feature. I was considering trading it in for something bigger,, but now having second thoughts.
I hate it too but it is standard these days, at least the start/stop is accessible with your hand on the shifter. Get in car, ignition on, hand on shifter/start stop off, shift and drive. Be happy you can turn it off now, I worry in the future that may no longer be an option
I love sport mode, especially when i need my RPMs to stay at a certain spot.
Plus it's really fun to shift the shifter to the left and drive manual for a little while.
I love being able to cycle through the gears when i feel like it.
I have the same car, the start / stop feature can be disabled by pulling the hood latch plug , and return it to the socket just far enough so it doesn’t reconnect but, keeps it from rusting. From that time your car will run normal and not shut off.
They must've made a lot of changes between 2021 and 2022... I just got a 2022 rav4 hybrid XLE... The start stop is not even noticable... But it's a hybrid so that's to be expected behavior... The engine is not hot at all. The tire pressure monitor does show on the dash... I'm not particularly fond of the parking brake turning on by itself, but I think I'll get used to it.. maybe there's a way to disable to automatic parking brake when the engine is still on? The horn, I mean, this car is not meant to have "balls" or be a hog on the road... That being said, you can upgrade the horn for anywhere from 20 to 60 bucks (piaa superior for example). For the hybrid at least, sport mode makes a huge difference.. it engages the hybrid engine as well as the electric rear motors, giving it over 200hp and hits 0 to 60 in just under 7 seconds.. it will snap your head back slightly when going from a stop and smashing the gas. Electric, the torque is instant with no build up, which makes a huge difference when working combined with a gas/hybrid engine. (The hybrid has a stand alone 60ish hp electric motor that is strictly for the back wheels). From what I've read and researched, the hybrid is leaps and bounds better than a standard RAV4, with 1 exception... The standard RAV4 has a locking differential so you can get 50 percent power to the front and back wheels... That's a big deal for me cause I live where we can drive on the sand.. I've been trying to find a good mode for sand driving and it seems like the hybrid is good for light duty sand driving at best if you don't want to risk getting stuck. I have a couple of vids on my channel where I was testing it. This is my first Toyota I've owned and I went from a 2009 4wd Yukon V8 to this.. I've been a Chevy man my whole life and I gotta say the rav overall is pretty great
So if you have a dead battery you have no way to set the parking break?
2017 Frontier 5 Speed manual. I hate that it doesn't have a factory backup camera. Being my first truck, it was a little intimidating backing up. Installed one immediately.
I’m with you on the start stop feature. I hate it! I have the 2021 Rav4 also. My hood stays up by itself. Overall I love the vehicle though.
ruclips.net/video/x_mCKrdfzr4/видео.html
I also own a 2021 Rav 4; I totally 100% agree with your thoughts on the engine auto on off feature. I HATE IT!!! I also agree that it has a weak horn. The other 3 items you mentioned don’t bother me. All in all, a great vehicle.
ruclips.net/video/x_mCKrdfzr4/видео.html
I got this stop start thing on my vw but somehow I made it (or it made it self) to give up permanently. Its a manual so it stops the engine If i put it out of gear and let off the clutch pedal, so not as annoying as the system in yours
Can you leave the air conditioning on to make the start stop stay off?
that hood prop complaint tho lmao
I agree with all of these but having no way to check the tire pressure in the vehicle is my biggest pet peeve. The quiet horn and hot hood prop are actually safety issues and really should be dealt with.
Thank you for sharing these points.
very first thing i did on my RAV was change the stupid meep meep horn
I saw this on a Toyota blog. Of course this person’s car is a 2022, but I wonder if it also applies to your 2021. “ I just found the tire pressure read out for individual wheels. The delivery person at the dealership did not know how to use the information center as he said that the tire pressure was only an idiot light.
Use the information center control on the left side of the steering wheel. When the main screen is showing the average MPG, press the left control arrow pointing left, 3 times. Then press the up arrow 3 times and the tire pressure display screen shows up with the 4 wheels.”
Is a sensor by the top of the radiator you can disconnect for the stop & start system
Seemed like a nice car. Thanks for sharing. Good luck.
Great vid! “Weak sauce” horn😂. I thought I loved that car. Too many electronics for me. Thanks for the insight. 👍
lol no problem I didnt even touch upon all the other stuff like lane assist and adaptive cruise control, it id chock full of tech...
I have a '21 Highlander and luckily the Auto start stop doesn't engage that easily. I have to depress the brake further than I normally would at a stop basically with a lead foot before the Auto start stop will engage. I have 1700 miles on the car and never had it turn on yet besides once to test it out. Funny when the TPMS, it's opposite for me, I guess the Highlanders do have a TPMS reading on the dash but I can never get it on the App!
I have the 2019 le.. lowest trim. Complete basics module. Love my rav4.. it has a key 🔑.. this trim is basics of the basics, it doesn't have that start/stop option, and also that stupid push to start crap.
Thinking about picking up a new LE. Any idea if they still kept the the start/stop out of it, or am I going to have to turn it off each time I drive? I noticed the base models also come with steelies & hubcaps, but if they're not significantly heavier than I don't think I care that much...just looks cheap. Whether the steelies or alloys, definitely want a smaller wheel and a fatter tire sidewall for a smoother ride over rough roads. Looking at the light color interior (feels more spacious). I'm reading that they've added some sound deadening under the hood on the newer models as well, hopefully the LE's got it too.
I think on the LE you can upgrade to alloy wheels 17"
Great video, good content, useful
I couldn’t help but notice how these are all modern additions to the vehicle. I drive a 2002 Jeep Wrangler, that thing barely has air bags. It has no computers trying to manage stuff (there is a indicator to shift up, but it’s just a light). My personal favorite is that there’s no massive ugly screen to support a backup camera, just a radio that plays music. The only downsides are that it’s very loud on the highway (absolutely zero sound dampening) and the gas mileage isn’t great (17 average city)
In big cities with lots of traffic the stop/go function is decent. Rather have it shut off than be constantly on if you go and stop for a long while. Rural roads it's very annoying that it shuts off at every stop when there's no traffic
I’m getting the 21’ rav 4 le delivered tomorrow and I did buy the 23’ Prius xle thankful it doesn’t have the start stop feature everyone is talking about. Imma be annoyed with my Rav now more but I need an suv for winter and rav is perfect.
Are those things present on the 2022 version?
i have 2020 RAV4 XLE and i HATE Start/Stop button. Everytime time i start engine, i have to push Start/Stop button everytime.
I drive a 2021 Rav4 here in Sydney, Australia. You are spot on about what you hate, apart from that, I love the car.
Got a few beefs as well. I own a 2021 Rav4 Trail. Drives fantastic, excellent safety features, comfortable to no end. Problems occur at temperatures below -30, there is a continuous drain on the battery while parked. I am losing enough to drain the battery to below 11 volts after 5 days. Ended up buying a battery maintainer, which is a pain. When I go to my cottage in the winter, I have to carry another 12volt battery in the back, so I can boost the car to get it started, or disconnect the battery. The cause? The computer and communication does not shut down while parked and puts a continuous load on the battery. That phone app should also tell me the battery voltage, but doesn't.
There are no hook points in the front (my previous 2009 Rav4 had two that I used dozens of times in a year) to attach emergency pull points, and to tie down a 17ft, 90lb canoe. The roof rack crossbars are spaced too closely together for let's say a 17ft canoe. The gas flip up cover, allows ice to build up inside, jamming the opening. Door locks freeze up, making entry debatable in cold temps.
I like the vehicle, though.
Note: Be warned the trailer hook up, is a flat4, not a 7 pin type used by camper trailers nowadays.
what about the rattling noise when car startup and idling?
Hey Jeff! Put a deposit down on a 2022 Toyota Sequoia for my wife. How do you like the Toyota app in general? Never had any experience with it.
Usually the Auto Start-Stop can be disabled by default at the dealer, so it's off by default and if you want to use the feature then you press the button.
You don’t need to do all that. Just don’t press the brake pedal so hard and you won’t trigger the auto stop.
I own a '17 XLE Rav4 and my biggest dislike was the stereo system. It does not have the premium sound and boy was that obvious! The sound was pathetic. I recently replaced the head unit with an Apple CarPlay, 50 watts per channel Pioneer. What a difference! But thank goodness my 2017 does not have those 5 hateful things!
Next up: 5 things I hate about being a millionaire. That's what complaining about a Toyota is like. They are single handedly the most reliable and capable vehicles on the road and that's coming from a Honda fanboy.
I bought a used 2017 Prius Prime Advanced Trim, so far.my biggest complaint with it has been one of the original selling points, it features the largest (at the time) Display ever in a Toyota, the infotainment touchscreen is 11.6 inches, portrait orientation. Big screens are cool right? Well, it's a huge reflective surface, it has some matte properties to it, but it still reflects a light especially in the morning or evening. Second, still with of the screen, they moved the AC controls to the touchscreen as well. I'm used to tweaking the AC settings in my car since I'm in California but you can't do anything with the touchscreen u til it completes it's little startup animation. Basically, I think they put too much emphasis on the screen. Nearly everything else about the car is an absolute pleasure. If I may include an honorable mention as well, some other features they had as selling points with this car have been discontinued. It used to have a lot of those remote functionality like in your Toyota app, but the Prius Prime used to use "Toyota Entune" to manage that stuff. Well they killed it off like a year ago and never brought in any of the removed features into the Toyota app.
2008 F-150 King Lariat. Love it!
Yes, I do not care for the Start/Stop Feature either.
Mainly because it put more wear & tear on your engine and mostly the starter.
But Car Companies have to meet emission mandates too.
One 'Fix' I can think of for the Prop Rod is to wrap thick 'Gorilla Tape' around the plastic holder to help with the heat.
ruclips.net/video/x_mCKrdfzr4/видео.html
I have the start-stop function/button on my Ford Edge and absolutely hate it as well. Should be able to disable it in the settings but of course they will not allow that. And those ebrakes suck too - more moving parts and expensive to repair compared to the conventional cable operated brake.
The Start/Stop mode is on all new cars as a federal mandate. You can always install an Auto-Start/Stop Eliminator from the aftermarket.
Yeah man that start stop feature would most likely be a deal breaker for me...especially if you couldn't turn it off. I drive a 2007 avalanche with just now a 100k on it, we will be getting something newer in a year or so and I am definitely going to look for something that does NOT have that lol, thanks Jefferson, great vid
start stop feature should definitely be a deal breaker. Imagine that - it takes 1second to reach over and press a button to disable it!
@@bobibufi1389 read much?
@@Shanes_sharp_sheet If you just press lightly on the brake pedal, the auto stop won’t trigger. That all you have to do.
Super easy and you don’t have to remember to press the button.
ruclips.net/video/x_mCKrdfzr4/видео.html
I don't have my vehicle yet, but people say that the start stop thing is seamless on the Hybrid because you usually start moving with the battery, so that by the time it starts the car the magnet is spinning very fast, and it starts much easier.
Im not sure about that I have the XLE premium which is 100% gas...All I can say is if you are new to auto start its not good at all however after almost a year now I shut it off with the button initially the same as I start the car its automatic for me to push that button...Its just a learning curve...
I bought a new 2021 Subaru Outback this Past fall. It had the start/stop. Hated it. Went back a month later to the dealer and drove a 2021 Subaru Ascent and saw it didn't have that feature... The heavens opened up and light beamed down from above. I bought the Ascent.
I have a '21 XLE. Sport mode is GREAT for passing. Also the steering tightens up and is noticeably stiffer. Sport mode is fun to use on curvy canyon and mountain roads when you want to really move or get around slow moving motor homes and semis.
I know this is a dumb question, lol, but do you press the Sport button WHILE you're driving, or do you put it in that mode as you're parked and getting ready to go?
@@repentjesusiscomingsoon1529 You can do either. While driving you can press sport, eco or normal as you wish. You can do the same while stopped and you can do it with 8 speed auto in Park or Drive.
@@SwordsCutEmDown Thanks so much for replying!! Nobody explained that to me when I picked up my RAV4, appreciate it very much! God bless you!
The start stop "feature" is mandatory in Europe I think, you even get it in a Ferrari 488 Pista.
My usual starting procedure is: Disable start stop > put on sport mode > disable esc (sometimes)
Feels like you're piloting a plane (not really).
ruclips.net/video/x_mCKrdfzr4/видео.html
I am guessing start/stop is mandatory as on most new cars I know. I hate it as well. You should be able to turn off only once and stays that way until you turn back on. I found if you stop then ease up on the brake it won’t shut off. Works on a Telluride.
Just adjust the start stop pedal pressure to be really hard so it doesn't kick on unless you apply really hard pressure
I like the kick, I want the pedal to be responsive, if you want laggy response buy a CVT.
Hated the stop start on engine in my Volvo s60. 2011 model which you couldn't turn off!
Handbrake button drove me crazy too.
Needles to say didn't keep it long.!
Didn't you realize the car had a start stop feature when you test drove it?
I bought my Mazda CX3 last year and the only thing I don't like is the fact that there is no storage inside the car. No little compartments or anything to hold things. Only ones are on the doors. You have to raise the arm rest to get to the cup holder.
The tire pressure display is usually placed in higher trims not the lower models.
If the push button E brake in on cars with standard transmissions, that could be a problem if starting on a steep hill. In the old days you could pull the emergency brake and let out the clutch as you released the brake. That way you wouldn't roll backwards.
My daily is a 1991 f150. I absolutely love everything except the gas mileage… I average around 16 mpg which I guess isn’t bad for a 30 year old vehicle. Oh and it’s so old I don’t have to get it inspected anymore!
The start stop is annoying at first but you get used to it. Lol I always forget it’s a thing now. It’s an adjustment but not a big deal.
I agreed with the braking problem because I have LE AWD canada. I found a solution for the braking problem. By not pushing downward your foot at brake paddle. The car will stops and the engines will not turn off . Try it out.
Thanks for the info about the start/stop situation. Deal breaker for me.This would drive me nuts. Not thinking about buying a RAV4 anymore.
Ik use to it now BUT keep in mind its pretty standard on so m ay vehicles these days so whatever you decide to look at check if its the same or worse for that one...You might be surprised how common it is now...
Love my 2021 Rav4 but there's one thing I really don't care for - the placement of the gas door release being so close to the hood release. I have accidentally pulled the hood release instead of the gas release many times while at the gas station. Not a huge deal, but I thought it was poorly designed to be so close together.
I have lost count how many times I pop the hood instead the gas door. LOL
I am on my third RAV4 and love it but it is a '16 hybrid. I really cannot feel the motor cut off and on. That start/stop feature would drive me nuts. I probably would keep it turned off as you do but every time I start the car is to much. It needs a full time permanent turn off.
With the stop/start feature. I keep the brake pedal just soft enough at stop to keep it from activating if I'm at a long light I'll press harder on the brake pedal to activate it.
I have a Mazda that I love. What I absolutely hate is the Mazda nav. When I select a destination, for example Go Home, the first press it shows navigate home? So I have to press the button again and then on the screen it has a 10 second timer before it starts navigating, so I have to press the button a 3rd time. Whoever programmed that to work that way should be fired. And forget trying to use voice to find a destination. It sometimes brings up a music list when I say "Go to Home Deopt". And like you said, I hate the e-brakes because I can not feather it while driving. It is either 100% on or 100% off. I hit it once when I was moving and it was not a good experience.
My previous Toyota’s had struts to raise hood & hold up. Props a pain in neck & especially when moved to hood & hot! Who tested that before sign off?
Cheers 🇨🇦😎
Jeff, just FYI on the auto start/stop. I seriously dislike it as well. It makes me feel like the car died (like my old 1999 beater), but it's set default on so that car brands can get better EPA ratings in the "standard driving mode". Something you may want to try is leaving the car in sport mode with auto start/stop turned off. If you shut the car down in sport mode and turn it back on, some models have the sport mode remember the auto start setting. Good luck and great car!
It’s not that difficult. Just don’t press so hard on the brake pedal when you stop and you don’t trigger the auto stop. Your brake pedal pads will probably last longer too if you don’t press the pedal any harder than you need to to keep the car from rolling at stops.
How about no LED lights on the windows and doors lock buttons or overhead console buttons? The fog lights also suck. I love the sport mode,it tightens the steering making you in control.
I believe the auto engine off/on needs to be enabled by default to count for EPA testing.
I agree. I think all new cars have it.
its such a pointless feature its comparison to the amount of carbon any corporation pumps out isnt even on the same graph one thing it does more damage to is the engine it ruins engine life whats 3 seconds of sitting at a set of traffic lights in comparison to all the plastic floating around in the sea
@@victoriaevelyn3953 I agree. I wouldn't buy a car with start stop. Most new cars don't have that feature.
Wow even my 2004 VW Golf has a bonnet/hood gas strut 🤨 I do like the colour of your RAV though Jeff 👌🏼
Thanks me too its Lunar Rock
1) Can't charge with usb with vehicle off
2) It's impossible to leave the vehicle running and lock it
3) Even if you leave the accessory on you still have to turn it off to turn it back on thus you have to wait on the car to boot literally every time
4) The incessant beeping of the open door like I know the door's open I just opened it
5) There's simply not enough user settings
Is that the XLE Premium?
For the start stop feature you can extend it so it doesn’t do it that quickly the tpms is on the dash under the settings if you click and hold on settings there is a way to look at your PSI of each tire hope that helps! 😁
Certain Toyota models do not have the tire pressure on the dash gauges you have to utilize the Toyota app to see your tire pressure or check it manually, my CHR doesn’t have it.
How do you extend it?
Sorry but different packages and different trims from different years may show TPMS but this one does not, I even had a Toyota certified Tech tell me theres no way to get that info accept the app and he agreed its a way for Toyota to make you download and use their app...
@@cutlerylover and charge you a subscription fee.
Two things Toyota has never fixed after having 4 of them.
1-Slowest hatch opening in the industry!
2-heated steering wheel not heated all the way around!
Fine driving straight, turn a corner, hands go to the cold part. Makes a difference when it’s below zero!
I drive a 2000 Dodge Durango. I honestly can say I do love everything about my truck. its got all the room I need and its got a V8, so its definitely not a slouch by any means. I do hate the rust problem of Wisconsin though. I'm sure you being a person of the relatively same climate can agree that a nice ride can become a rust bucket in a matter of years.
PA winters eats cars alive here too...sad but no garage means half the vehicles life for sure...
@@cutlerylover yup. mine is succumbing to the same fate. bolts break and bumpers rust. the joys of owning a ride.
I just reserved a 22 RAV4 XSE at msrp. My wife and I are not set on it but can switch our reservation to another vehicle if we don’t like it.
Start-Stop feature is on by default because vehicle fleet emissions. And yes the yellow light is a bad choice.
A couple of those apply to most cars. Hard to avoid start stop. My 2019 GLi doesn’t have it because it’s a manual. I don’t like it either so I am happy about that. Also don’t like the electric emergency brake. Think it’s something else that will just fail at some point. My car has it. Agree the tire pressure info should be in the car.
Good review, I’m looking at buying one but wish it didn’t have the stop/start. I have it on my Ford escape, I got used to turning it off but wish they would do away with it.
Nothing in this video was worse than the Ford Escape issues so I think my mind is made up. Thanks for the video (even though I’m 2 yrs late seeing it).
:) Im glad it helped you decide good luck with it
My CR-V has the same start stop annoyance. No way to disable it my default so every time I start the car in need to disable it.
Good review.
Should try the 4Runner line, I’d say v8 but v6’ are nice too.
Go older when they didn’t have stupid electronics.
Did you get a kentucky built one or the canadian built one?
Canada
I don’t like that the accessory mode only lasts about 15 minutes if I want to sit somewhere and just enjoy some music. The car says something like powering down to conserve the battery.
5:09. There is a small wiring harness that can be bought and installed that will allow the tpms data to display on dash. Saw it on youtube
yes I would do that if my warranty was up but dont want to mess with wiring even if its not suppose to harm anything it might be a good excuse for Toyota to no longer cover warranty issues....I sold this vehicle aftre a year or so becasue it was worth more than I owed and finance Tacoma now...no start stop feature and I get my tire pressure on the dash :) but I did it for more winter capability as well as more storage
I also have a Toyota and the only thing I hate about it is the start/stop feature. The first time it kicked in, I had forgotten about the feature and thought something was wrong with my car until I researched it.

And I hate the electronic parking brake because I can no longer scrape rust of my rear disc brakes…
I live in Florida and have the AC on almost all the time. Will the engine shut off at a stop if the AC is on?
yes but the ac wont it will just cut back on the power so if your stuck in traffic and the engine keeps shutting off your ac might not be as cold but it will stay on
@@cutlerylover hmm, not liking that.
I live in Ga and run my ac nonstop. So far the start/stop feature hasn't been a problem with regards to ac.
Sport mode is useful on twisty roads and hills. Also, some prefer to drive more aggressive regardless of what they drive. It makes steering and shifting more responsive..perhaps it shouldn't be called Sport mode just for people who get confused at its usefulness
Why would you turn off auto ebrake? Not the biggest fan of the electric ebrake but it is nice that it's automatic
I can get over the noise but dont wish to wear it out as fast by it engaging every single time I put it into park, I only use an ebrake if im parking on a hill so I prefer to do it myself if needed
@@cutlerylover ebrakes usually seize from no use, not that I'm sure it's the same and I can see the motor going out but that's why it's got warranty right now I can see if it will die an early death
@@macro820 Only time will tell but the warranty would hopefully fix it either way :)
I bought a new SUPERDUTY truck in 2017 that is a bare-bones, plan-jane work truck just to avoid all of these types of digital / tech annoyances. This was a refreshing video as I thought I was the only one annoyed with these things...
I drive a dinosaur LOL,, a 2001 ford f150 extra cab 4x4 and I LOVE it and wouldn't trade it for any of the new crap, I love the simplicity of not having all that extra computer controlled stuff to go bad or drive you nuts, it's a well equiped model with all the bells and whistles for that year, it is also a manual 5 speed and not the auto's that I don't care for, it's the 4.6 triton 2v engine that runs like a swiss watch and with the 5 speed has plenty of power for anything you will ever do with a half ton truck and then some (I've actually towed and hauled way more than you should with a half ton but it did just fine with it ), it only has about 110,000 miles on it from new (I'm second owner, bought it quite litterly from a little old lady who's husband died and used to drive the truck as a second vehicle and it only had about 40,000 miles on it),,,,when I got it I bought brand new tires and rims because I hated what the old guy had on it,,,,factory firestones and factory rims so I put some nice rims and tires on it and used the stock rims for winter rims and had studded winter tires put on them( I live in a very mountainess area of the rocky mountains in Idaho and studded tires are nearly a total necessity), and I still have a year or 2 to go before any of those tire need replaced because I bought high quality when I did buy them, the truck has been flawless and hasn't cost me hardly a dime in repairs in basically 70,000 miles now, oil changes, 1set of brake pads and rotors on all four wheels that I did myself ( very easy to do on that truck and was only about $300 in parts), and I had to put an alternator on it about 2 years ago, and that I did myself also (real easy to do) replaced the alternator belt and idler and tensioner all at once just to be safe and all it cost was again about $300 for lifetime waranty parts and a half of a day to install them, but that is it in the 5 or so years I've had it,,,great truck and I plan on keeping it for many more miles to come. Edit LOL almost forgot the main reason I wrote this LOL you mentioned weak horn well my truck has you beat on wimpy horns,,,mine is wimpier than a neutered chipmunk with laryngitis,,,you could most deffinately be heard farting inside with the windows up than blowing the horn at somone, actually pisses me off because even when I want to aggrevate someone with it I can't they just end up laughing at my wimpy horn LOL,,,been threatening to get one of those aftermarket semi truck horns for it but then I'd probly get in trouble with it LOL,,,so that IS the one thing I hate about my truck LOL.
Is this a hybrid? Is that why it has the start stop feature?
All models have it
