I grew up in the NE too and we were lucky to get 60-70,000 miles out of a car before it was rotted out. I have a 16 year old Mazda 3 now with no rust at all, I think it's mostly because so much of it is plastic. Cars last much longer now, you can easily get 150,000 miles out of car these days with a little care. I have seen newer pickup trucks rusting out, but I never see rust bucket cars on the roads like we used to.

Love the dude that doesn't want it to "get over 10" when his dog is fueling his car. He's just being funny, but some people really do that. I once saw a guy put $2 of gas in their car and then walk into the station and buy a $5 lotto ticket. He told the cashier, "when only you got 2 ones and a five, you gotta make priorities." If the lotto makes your list of priorities, you're too dumb to drive, but guaranteed to have your car shown in one of these videos.

8:16, all engines should have a oil drain like this. Maybe have some sort of security device, or safety on it, so it can't be opened accidentally or maliciously.

@johns1625 2 ай бұрын

Maybe make it so you need a specific tool to open it. Like, you could put some sort of socket over a hexagon shape and turn it to make it open.

I have one on my Subaru. It has a plastic retainer clip that prevents it from being opened accidentally. Makes oil changes a breeze. Doesn’t have any protection from someone with knowledge and malicious intentions opening it, but the chances of that being an issue are next to none, imo

@ReadTheShrill 2 ай бұрын

Fumoto valves have a slot that the lever fits in, so they can't be opened accidentally. There's enough spring pressure that in order for vibration to open them, you'd likely have to be in an accident that destroyed your car anyway. They are awesome for the DIYer. I put them on both my car and my truck, saves a lot of time, hassle and mess when changing the oil. Mine have a little flange on them so you can pop a bit of hose on the end, so there's zero splashing. Now if they could just find a solution for changing my oil filters, which make a giant mess.

@wykydytron 2 ай бұрын

If you drive your car everyday for long enough for it heat up then there is much lesser chance fir rust. I have 2011 Camaro here in Poland(a lot of salt during winter) when I was doing minimum 60km trips daily I had zero dust issues over cars lifespan but as soon as I stopped using it as daily it started to rust after year of driving it once a month. So yeah, rust is often sign of car sitting outside not being daily driven.

@BruceCarbonLakeriver Ай бұрын

Having a garage makes a huge difference, having proper letngthy trips also. And washing it at least once a week during winter time as well. So there is much you can do, which others don't. Greetz from Austria from the Alps :))

How did the driver with the melted bearing not notice an issue during his pre trip? I shut my truck down because of a spot of oil I saw on the wheel, and the shop I took it to said I saved the wheel and bearing because of that. I borrowed a friend's truck to finish my day. Thankfully, it was parked at the same shop 🙂 Same question with the trailer brakes. I hope the driver caught that on his pre trip. Truthfully, upon seeing that the one slack adjuster wasn't even connected to the brake chamber, I would have ended my inspection right there, and never looked at the rest of the brakes as there's already a problem, and the trailer needs repairs before going out. I would have told the mechanic "You ain't gonna believe this" and left the trailer with him. I suspect that the driver probably did just that.
