I was thinking the same thing.

He likes doing that

Yeah, I asked him about it on Patreon. He said "I'd didn't put a ton of effort into editing this as it's more of a filler, but that's not much of an excuse". Its not all that large of a problem, but all it needed was a second of silence after his last line on the video to fit his normal comedic abrupt cut off, and you basically wouldn't be able to tell just how filler this was.

@@deefdragon I just found it funny how it ended after an ad. Bye bye little smart car. Just waiting now for the next weego video.

I thought my Chromecast glitched out at first... Had to go back and make sure from my phone that the video actually ended..

The angle at 4:56 makes it look like it has two front wheels on one side of the car. Perspective is weird.

A very wild stab in the dark - an early Merc A/B class (5 spoke twins)

I think I know what it is. A German company makes conversions of small cars to put the two rear wheels very close to each other, legally qualifying it as a three-wheeler, I think.

@@s.v.berezin1562 That is just the perspective angle what you are seeing is the front wheel

Yeah, for a spare car, I wouldn't have given you much for it either.

Is it thee BOLOCCCKS plalte?

Flawless special effects

Cyberpunk 2077

the smart car thanos snapped his clone out of existence

This was genius

Reminds me of a European who got on Reddit some time ago and professed his undying love for the Dodge Charger which are about as common as lamp posts around here. He posted photos of one he saw in Paris and despite being a bare bones base SXT model, it still made him happy. I think there's something about wanting something you can't have that makes it romantic and special.

@@deloreanman14 as a European myself, I can confirm, whenever you see a dodge charger around these parts, it's a special day to remember. They are quite rare here and always makes heads turn when one of them drives by.

@@deloreanman14 You can (could?) order a Dodge Charger from the dealer in Germany normally. Unfortunately, almost nobody did that. The problem is that (in the past, when gasoline was still affordable) some people drove it at full throttle for hours on the highway, which is certainly not a good idea with a production car straight from the USA. A relative drove many Chryslers back in the day and always had problems with the automatic, which was not made for sustained high speeds. I'm sure that has changed in our globalized world and these problems no longer occur, but that's how people remember it. We drive a SsangYong Rodius, which has only 155 hp and 360 Nm in Germany instead of 185 hp and 400 Nm (in Korea). That's the end of the line at 185 km/h. The car then lasts much longer and the manufacturer has no problem with the warranty. This is a bit surprising, because the engine comes from Austria (AVL List) and the transmission from Germany (Mercedes Benz). BTW: I heard that in the US musclecars, like the Ford Mustang, are only driven by novice drivers. These would be typical "young people's" vehicles. In Germany, there are a lot of Mustangs driving around, but they are mostly driven by men who are in the midlife crisis.

​@@Hessi great message! 👏👏

it sounds like something a state would get sued over... Missouri doesn't know how to do vehicle emissions testing

@@kruleworld It's not their fault. Like I said, some of the jump without anyone touching them.

Whoops. I didn't think to rewatch my own video to get my own facts straight. I should've realized my memory is faulty when I picked out the clip of myself soldering the SAM. I watched myself wiring in a couple bypass wires, and I had absolutely no memory of doing that or what they were for

@@agingwheels don't worry. That's just age.

@@5Andysalive Aging brain

no no no silly he needs another terrible rare car to fill that empty space

Dahaitsu Copen?

A Wartburg would be a good choice. Another East German two-stroke from the cold war era. Much like the Trabant, but bigger, with a few technical quirks of its own. Keep the German theme going.

@@Elena-xh5nq As a (West) German, I say: Please don't! And if, then only the first series as a station wagon with lots of chrome and many windows. There were - especially in the 1950s - totally crazy subcompacts from Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and France. A Wartburg is simply not a fun car. It has as much esprit as a Golf or a Passat - so none at all. I think that you do not understand his motives. He collects cars that are different. Especially from an American point of view. A Yugo is a legend in the USA, the Trabant a sign of the end of the cold war. He's not an Eastern bloc fan, he's a car enthusiast.

The bus featured

That could also mean that the emissions test failed because the car wasn't outputting the correct signals though it's still quite weird since the signals themselves are digital and shouldn't be readable if not correctly connected.

You could certainly wire one if they don’t make it. Better yet, direct wire in a better ECM but that would take too much time money and attention

Its the same in Japan, too. The 2002 Skyline only has one rear fog light and one rear backup light for the same reason.

My VW Polo 1988 had this stupid issue and I never drove a VW again. Until our VW Tiguan 2018 which … has the same issue

This many?

he can't cause he sold it wa wa wwwaaaaaa

That teenager was 13 years old when he bought it! Can you believe?

Yup, same here - 1st gen Smart, LHD 5 years, 50 000 miles, no problems. Curiously, LHD can be very useful at times here in the UK.

Yep. I now drive an ED version and I still have my lhd petrol 2001 model. You get attached to these things.

the problems are oil burning,misfires, and probably the doors wont open

patreon thing? or is this just something ive just managed to miss.

@@invetegon4596 Watch the newest series of car treck episode 2 I beliveve.

Me thinks he's only just found out via ......!

@@connorarnold9362 I found a playlist made by vinwiki of all the car trek videos and the last one was made 2 months ago and none of them seem to have anything to do with aging wheels in the thumbnail or title. If you could provide a link that would be great because I want to see this lol

With that wire it looks like the wheego is on life support and that sticker is the tape holding the nasogastric tube to its face

I don't know what you're talk...

@@agingwheelswat do y

Wha

That was really w

seriously? I thought my internet hav

also, you can park it ANYWHERE

Mainly because of how fucking ugly the new ones are. doesn't resemble the originals in the slightest

@@Knaeckebrotsaege new ones look like a generic french small car from Renault

@@Knaeckebrotsaege The 2nd Gen was the best one, has one for more than 5 years, it had better proportions and bigger boot than the old one. Never had any problem with it and it was much hater in Smart snob circles MHD model. New Smart is ugly and basically just Reneault Twingo.

@@AndrisJankevics Just to clear up what I mean with "the ugly new ones"... I'm talking about the 3rd generation (C453, A453), sold in NA from 2014-2019 and everywhere else from 2016 to present.

As you do.

They've done a cross-over video about a Figaro, figuratively.

@@kruleworld Robert has also been in one of Alec’s videos- I think it was the one about brown.

until they are ten, then they are anual.

Good that he only has the WORD on display.

we live in Northern Mi. A neighbor had one, it sat on blocks every winter till she sold it.

Same bud hahaha

lol same here

Yup. Had buddies get cars registered with no title that way

Amen, guvmint has no business "inspecting" private property, and emissions inspection are just tax by another name

I bet the Swatch company came up with that idea.

Yes, but do Americans know what it means?

I am surprised he got rid of it when it is a terrible car with all the problems it had you think it would entertain him alot with how many problems it had cause it was broken like the wheego

go to the bus stop. you're sure to see one eventually. He's not going to work on the bus project if the shed is too hot or too cold, which is always.

We want to watch him do bus stuff in the dungeon!!!

@@p.b.1589 I was referring to how relaxed the laws are in Michigan for what you can register.
