Hi Scotty, here in Quebec , Canada, we get 6 feet of snow, down to -50 with the wind chill and calcium and salt spread on ice roads ice that will rust your car fast. If you rent the car for 3-5 years then you dont really car about the rust but if you keep it than an anti-rust grease treatement is a must if you keep the car for 10 + years. Even with all theses conditions , there are still 20 + year old cars still on the road. My 2006 chevy cobalt is still running great but last month the right a arm broke in half and every year I do some body work. My wifes 2006 civic has aged much better than the cobalt with alot les repairs. I can argue without a doubt that the honda is way more relaible and durable than a gm product.

Hey Scotty, I just got my first car, which is a 1999 Chevy s10 Ls standard cab with 107k miles. What a mouthful. Mine has the I4 engine with a 4 speed automatic transmission. I bought it off a family member for 600$. And spent 300$ so far on various repairs. But works fully again. And I did have a bad vacuum leak the second I got the truck and was driven like that for who knows how long. I did fix that before putting hardly any time in the truck with new vacuum lines. It seems to be a fairly fun truck and it handles going 75-85 mph on texas highways. But what are your thoughts on it? From what friends and family tell me, they have seen these trucks go into the 400-600k mile range without too many problems.

Scotty, what do you think of the 2015 Toyota Avanza ?

The Honda may not be perfect, but it is still better a similar car made by GM, Chrysler, Ford, or the even worse Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, VW, etc. 😂

I had a prelude that had nothing but electrical problems. It cost so much money. No one can figure it out terrible and snow in New England.

I have 63,000 Miles on my 2017 Subaru forester. I replaced Rare brakes and rotors at 54,000 . My question is, do you need to replace rotors every time you need new brake pads? I was told I'll need new front brakes soon. LW. From N.J

Hey Scotty, got a question for you I have a 2017 Toyota IM Corolla with a 6 speed manual. 23,000 miles i'm the 2nd owner My clutch has absolutely no feeling and the bite point is extremely thin , the clutch is like an on/off switch there is little graduation. you really have to slip the clutch to get it going. -what would cause this? - I don't know what air in the line would feel like. - I also don't know if they used crappy clutches that are designed to last vs comfort. * the clutch doesn't slip, it shifts ok there is no unusual noises I'm no dummy driving manual I learned back in 03 on a 01 dodge neon, and had a 96 s10 much more confident clutch

how to submit questions to Scotty? I've been struggling with sticky brake pads on 2nd gen Prius for years. I've never spent on brakes so much on any cars that I had before.And Prius is supposed to never wear brakes. And I replaced 3 calipers too

What do you think about new BMW's? I have an eye on a brand new 218 Series (2022) for 38k, i don't make more than 6k miles per year, there reason i'm on this car is that i want something flashier than a Hybrid Corolla Sedan, do you think that it will be worth to buy ?

Hi Scotty. Your vids are GREAT! Where are you located? I have a 2007 Nissan van and I want to get rid of it and get something better but not new. I'm just a 62 yrs young single lady and I don't know where to start. I think you would say don't go to a used car dealer. But how do I know who to trust? I want to buy a car that YOU say is the best bet and value and is easy and cheap to repair. I have a little money to put up for something dependable but not fancy, so should I just try to sell the Nissan for starters?? thanks.. Michelle in central MO . ps I dont need another van, but I do like the idea of a mini van or SUV with rear wheel drive, or maybe some kind of hatchback with rear wheel drive. I live in the rural area and will never live in a city. I like practical more than pretty. What should I be looking for in terms of make model and number of miles on it? thank you!!!

I’ve read about problems with the VTC actuators on the 2.0 litre honda engines. Anybody knows if this happens on the 1.8 litre from 2012-2017 model range, like the civic?

This vid says it all why old toyota's are rare. Yes toyota's are very reliable the first 8 years. But i am very much noticing 10+ year old models sold by the millions disappear really quickly to being rare.
