@isaias ojeda No, he'll say the CVT is unreliable and expensive to replace. Try a 2011 Camry 4 cylinder.
Hey Scotty, I’m 18 and planning to get a 2011 Nissan Altima as my first car for $2,700 and 176,000 miles. Is this a good first car?
Hi Scotty! Myth Busters did an episode on Golf ball dimpling aerodynamics. Their findings? Car had less cg of drag! I'm gonna Eagle hole #9!
@Mark Codiroli thank you
@Mark Codiroli Car dealers are businesses. They're not their to hold your hand and give you good feelings. You're a man. Learn how to negotiate if you don't want to feel taken advantage of.
The dealer buys the car for 300 bucks or 500 bucks
How do you feel about 2012 manual regal gs
Bought a 2014 camry 150000km , good move ?
"Drives like a lunatic!" Made my day... lol
Scotty do you love any car regardless of price. I’m tired of walking!!
Cash 💰 it Advantage!!!
Well I messed up because I financed a 2021 LE but honestly I love my toyota corolla
I remember an earlier video by Scotty warning us not to buy the Camry with that 8 speed transmission. I had that car as a loaner and though the ride was compliant, the continuous shifting was kind of annoying. I ended up buying a new Camry hybrid because I scored a good deal. There is no shifting here as it is a CVT. Quicker than the regular 4 banger and scoring over 50 mpg. I am good...
Toyota has mold lawsuit. Well made cars built to last yet have toxic mold blowing you in the face putting your health at risk. Should you buy a Toyota? Several models of toyota are at risk. Several forums say the newer ones smell like vinegar. Was that their fix?
I like toyotas
What’s your take on a modern Challenger RT? Are they relaible?
whoa whoa whoa Chevy Impala's from 2014 - up were the highest rated GM vehicle EVER by Consumer Reports. Now granted CR's rating may not be real world reality but my Daughter has one and says it's the best car she's ever owned and she's had a bunch of cars. As a former mechanic myself the web sites and FB posts that I see do not condemn them..
Hi Scotty What about an Alfa Romeo Stelvio? Are they good cars? Is it worth the $30k + price tag?
Is Chevy Malibu 2008-2015 good cars?
Going back to Houston, Houston, Houston!
There is a saying in my family. " Don't force it. Just get a bigger hammer."
Scotty I have a question, Hope you can help , my Wife has a 2018 Toyota Corolla SE , it has 90, 000 miles I said the oil transmission need to be replaced or changed but the people from the dealer said we don’t need to, since this car doesn’t have the stick to check the condition of the oil, I don’t know what to do, what is your advice the manual doesn’t say anything, thanks
Sounds like a lazy mechanic. They can easily check the fluid at the fill plug. Just TELL them to change your trans fluid, don't ask them. Toyotas aren't magic cars (except my 95 Camry) and they will not run forever on the original fluid. It definitely needs changing at 90-100k if it has never been done. If they don't want the job take your business elsewhere.
I used to park under a giant oak tree. I spent like 5 years driving cars that looked like the Titleist edition because they had so many acorn dings 😂
That was the rule of thumb when I was working in a music shop & buying & selling used instruments. The Double Our Money principle 😂 we bought it for $200, we had to sell it for $400 to break even.
You the man Scotty, Preach!
Scottie Your a living idol! Type Rs will last longer that most drivers due to how fast They drive, boy that was funny!
We know what Renegade means 😏
Dealers also give you some sort of guarantee or some after sales support, at least good dealers. Private sellers do not. That’s a good enough reason to haggle.
Go buy a bmw. No one wants you to know
I'm thinking about buying my wife a Lincoln Mkx used any opinion.
Scotty got down on this video lol
People selling used want as much as dealers but they don't seem to want to certify them first or detail them. Another reason many people want so much for used is because they owe more than the vehicle is worth. That's what you get when you opt for 7 year payment plan.
Please make a video on synthetic fuel‼️
Scotty, is that blue supercharged Mustang fastback in the background made of Legos?
I have a question is Toyota Sienna good cars
Ls engines were made a certsin period the numbers on the engine tell when it was made so compare that to the vin number engines have letter codes duh so compare the code with the engine
6:28 that’s all I do & the transmission automatically got fixed.
Lmaoo
I financed a Tesla with bitcoin. I can’t keep up with the payments so it self-drove back to the dealer.
Scotty, it's refreshing to hear an Old school mechanic giving such honest advice.
That's why i keep my Civic MB6, new cars are good but do not last , they are crappy and expensive without reason.
Scotty left Houston and it froze over.........😳
Scotty what's your opinion on a 08 f250 with the 6.4
I got mine Tacoma trd sport 4x4 17 private party for 28 and at dealers same condition and miles they asking 30-31 plus doc fee and other stupids thing they put.
My 09' Kia Forte is kicking at 190K miles. No major issues except my suspension due to all the dirt roads and long road trips. I was highly impressed with this car.
Hey Scotty 🆘 I have a 03 Toyota Camry 2.4 L The check engine light went on brought it to AutoZone they said it’s the top bank O2 sensor I bought and tried four O2 sensors from them and none of them work. light is still stays on can you help me please. 🙏🏻
Hi Scotty! my Toyota exiv (3S FE 4WS 2.0 L ) of 23 yrs(200,000 km) showing problems with its 4WS systems, rear wheels to turn opposite to the front wheels, how to fix it, please.
What every happened to that car app you were working on making?
O agree with you scotty
Always negotiate the price....always... offer low and have some negotiation points. Move in increments using your arguments as you go along. And be willing to walk away. Best option is usually to be cordial but firm.
Hey Scotty, what do you think about a 2014 Mercedes Benz CLA45 AMG?
Damm
Scotty! I brought a 2007 FJ Cruiser for $7,500 with 138k miles. The ONLY problem is the differential is making a whirling sound and there are metal scraps in the differential oil. Besides replacing the differential, what do you recommend? This is my first Toyota and I want to keep this car running for years to come.
Scotty I’m trying to find a good used car for my wife that is under 8-10 years old so I can get a loan from the bank. Something under 10grand that is reliable and good gas mileage
Scotty what are your thoughts on 05-10 hummer h3 ??? The 5 cylinder ones
Scotty. Where is the video you made at the old garage about jumping new cars? You said don't jump the neg side from battery because of the comp..or electronic module? could malfunction. Hook neg to frame or motor. I want to share that and I can't find it again. You were at your Red Shop. thx
After 200000 km is a car dead?
Things you never expect to hear: A penguin JDM cars with mufflers Scotty telling you not to buy a Toyota
I hope you can answer this question or if it’s even the place to ask . have a 16 Ford explore 37,000 miles on it want to change the transmission fluid like you say but they want to run the car while changing the transmission fluid what are your thoughts on it.?
Where are you located in texas I have a 2012 honda accord with PCM issues ?
@Kevin F76 ook thanks !
Michael Gobin He lives in TN now.
They build cars to be throw away they want you to keep buying new.
If you don't mind bumpity bump bump
What is an LS engine? If you're going to use acronyms at least give us a clue as to what you're talking about.
I thought scions were Toyota how are your Korean car am I missing something???
Junkyard == Chevrolet dealership. Got it Scotty!
Unless you're in massachusetts, then you just dont get the inspection sticker on the car for the first 30 days, and if anything goes wrong, the dealership is legally obliged to fix it before the end of the 30 day period.
Scotty, I see that flag behind you, thank you or family member for your service
Acura RL: FTW!
Scotty if you earn $850k a year, would you buy a 2021 Lexus LC500 for $95k?
To be honest Scotty is the reason all Toyotas are higher than any other brand. He let out the secrete on reliability and the rest is history.
I won a 2019 civic type r if you put in comfort mode it rides pretty good ! it does not beat you up at all !
Who else saw scptty's cat in a new position @ 2021😂
Scotty love ya but stop telling your fans dealers buy cars for half of the value. 28 yrs a sales manager in three states I have appraised thousands of cars. A 25000 retail book car is not taken in at a dealer for 12500. You said you bought a used car for 500 private party and dealer wanted 7000 you ripped that guy off. Trade in book, auction values are used. If the trade has body damage and a transmission that wont shift the reconditioning is deducted. Everyone wants to bash in the head of a car dealer. I worked for a dealer that lost $140,000 a month in wholesale loss and had no problem with that. That means he put way too much money into a trade to sell new ones. His angle made him #1 retailer in country, sold more parts and service that anyone and it made him and his employees rich enough to be happy. His sales people stayed forever, hundreds of customers would only buy from their sales person and he did not have to spend 400 thousands on advertising only about 70. Your great and I have learned a lot from you. STOP PERPETUATING ALL CAR DEALERS ARE CROOKS. I know many dealers that are great companies that provide outstanding service to there customers. If they are crooks then every business that makes a profit including you are a crook. Sick of this all dealers are crooks dialog.
I found a good deal on a 2016 Honda Civic Lx sedan with a cvt. Is there a reason to avoid that specific year & build? Can Scotty or anyone out there let me know?
wat what the price? I have been looking at used hondas and they are over priced
Scotty, we’ve had a 2015 impala for 5 years, 150,000 miles. It has the v6 engine. No problems with the car yet. Engine is really zippy. Just wish the seats were more comfortable. We’ve had Gm products for 33 years. 1 Bonneville, three Le Sabre’s, 1 Grand Prix. All over 200,000 miles. 2 over 250,000 miles. All with the 3.8 liter engine. Love that engine. We had a mechanic like you. He kept us on the road and money in our pocket. Sure miss him.
@scottykilmer How do you feel about 2018-2020 Ford Explorers?
The Florida pool pump motor repair guy approved ! that was good info
2007 Camry with 47,000 Miles .had it a couple years then number 3 piston cracked .Toyota used cheap rings .had it overhauled for $3200 .Thought they was Bullitt proof ?????
@James Abrams now you tell me.Gave $7500 for it then put $3200 so I hope I can keep it a while .We don’t drive much with having a home business anyway
Avoid years 2007-2009
Thank you Scotty, God bless you.
“He’s a lunatic” Scotty describes his older son, luv it mate.
No, he said he drives like a lunatic.
Noooooo! That's what I'm saving up for 🥺
Ay hands down the best video you got
You buy when you find a seller that NEEDS to sell. When you have to argue over price they are not ready.
Good advice about salvage cars 👍 thanks Scotty 👏
Can you list the car now still reliable
Is that Esso decal from Clemson, SC Scotty??? I’ll be highly upset because I live here and the greatest mechanic was around and I didn’t get a picture lol
Hi Scotty, greetings from Europe. A small clarification, the Jeep Renegade is made on a Fiat 500X base not on Fiat 500L. That said in Europe the best-selling crossover is the Renault Captur because it is the cheapest. That said, many Volkswagen T-Rocs and Jeep Renegades are also sold. Nobody buys the Honda HR-V in Europe, but we mainly buy diesel vehicles here.
I paid cash for my 2013 Camry from a dealer. I owe it out right. It's a nice car..
Did Scotty's wife say "my neck, my back...."
I was going to buy but this video come up
Korean cars are much better over the last 10 years
i have the pepperoni steering wheel cover and i find it lacks road feel, but is delicious on longer trips
how many sons he has ?
Type r is a race car🤣💀
Hi Scotty I have a 2018 Chevy Colorado do you think it’s worth keeping?
My grandfather worked as a mechanic for a used car dealer for 37 years. He never bought a car from a dealer.
I thought Scotty was a Toyota freak😂
Option on a 2010 lexus gx460 thinking about buying one
I want to buy a truck or suv. I have always bought trucks chevs .What truck or suv is the best to buy these days thanku much
I think the local Chevy dealer could find a better venue, than Scotty videos lol Especially because, when Scotty says "junk yard," he shows a Chevy dealer.
Yes
Hey can you put anything in gas to clean converter
Thank you!!!
Well Scotty, Kia en Hyundai are goods brands. It's just like you don't like Suzuki, but did you know the new Suzuki Across is a toyota Rav4?
UNREALISTIC!!!!! I am willing to bet money that the $500. car that Scotty bought was from a former (TRUSTING SCOTTY) customer or fan and NOT a stranger (like most everyone else would have to buy one). Pretty certain that Scotty has admitted to such transactions in past videos. In my experience, if the used Toyo is any near fairly priced, and you (as a NORMAL person / non AMget star like Scotty) try negotiating (much)... Either the seller wil just not take your calls or texts any more, or it will be bought out from under you faster than you can say "Sco...".
