Scottie I bought a 2006 Subaru outback AWD in mint condition from a used car dealership, but the original seller knew the guys at the dealership. Absolutely not a spot of rust anywere on the vehicle and the person before me supposedly stored it inside in the winter here in michigan and I have to believe him with 0 rust. But my question is I only paid $2211.00 for it runs great 0 rust is there anything I should watch for because I have never owned a Subaru. Thank you.

Several years ago when I was looking for a car, I went to a larger dealer that was 50 miles away but supposedly had a reputation for integrity. They said they had the perfect car for me and had a salesman bring it around front for me to look at. Water was leaking out of it. When I told the salesman, he said that was just condensation from the exhaust. I started walking the trail it left and found myself in back of the building where many vehicles were parked. I could have followed the trail to it's original parking place but I turned around to go back to my own car. When I got back around the front, the perspective car was still leaking water from somewhere behind the rear fender, opposite the exhaust side. The salesman said they had just washed it and that's where the water was coming from. I didn't acknowledge him, I just walked to my car, remembering the consumer warnings on TV about dealerships peddling hurricane flooded cars from down south. Supposedly there were consumer safeguards in place to prevent that but apparently they found a way around it. I've never been back.

It's possible if it was flooded by a tide like say at the beach or something in the sand, and was on a sloping shore, only the back end was submerged. If the tailpipe got full of water then maybe it wouldn't start because of that and so it was just totalled without being thoroughly checked out.

Hey Scotty! Thank you for your videos! I have a question, what inexpensive vehicle would you recommend as a work car? My husband does tech work and needs room for his tools, and be gas efficient (he's looking at 20mpg combined). The biggest issue, we're living in an apartment and are limited to two cars. So in case our family car goes out, his work vehicle needs to fit 4 people. On the plus side, we both know how to drive a manual 🙂

Easy answer: Honda civic, Toyota corolla, Toyota Matix, or if wanted bigger, Toyota Camry. Early 2000's. And yes, you can fit tons of tools in all 4 of these if you utilize drawers, etc. I think your husband should look at the Toyota Matrix or Pontiac Vibe (same thing) for the win. Toyota Sienna only if wanting to go bigger. No dumb 4x4 truck necessary or needed.

I would guess that those Toyota trucks would be pretty water resistant, not water proof, but at least water resistant. If it just got got hit with a high tide while it was off, it seems like it would handle it about as good as any truck would, and if it had the chance to dry out completely before being started again, the electronics should survive. This guy got a great deal.

The car was never turned on in water. All the lights came on. Abs, BSM, power steering, tmps, srs, tss, Pre Collison, dynamic radar cruise, everything. Opened the windows to let it dry and vacuumed 8 gallons out of the carpets. Claimed insurance, and they totaled the car due to flood damage. Before insurance towed the car about 2 weeks later, everything was back to normal except the smell of mold and the srs air bag light on. The car still drove fine, never hydrolocked.

our dodge one ton came with 4x4 the truck every now and then wants you to engage the system in 4x4 mode. usually from not being used it simply wants it turn on or put into that mode. you just drive forwards for a few miles low speeds to exercise it after that it’s re set. then stop put it back into 4x2 drive on.

I sure hope so! I use to detail cars and if they didn't pull the seats out and the carpeting to get down to the padding, that would stay wet a very long time. If not get all the way down that low and get some fans to blow through there.

Scottie I bought a 2006 Subaru outback AWD in mint condition from a used car dealership, but the original seller knew the guys at the dealership. Absolutely not a spot of rust anywere on the vehicle and the person before me supposedly stored it inside in the winter here in michigan and I have to believe him with 0 rust. But my question is I only paid $2211.00 for it runs great 0 rust is there anything I should watch for because I have never owned a Subaru. Thank you.

On Subaru the transmission is always the worst lasting part. I always see, mine included. Subaru for sale in great condition with plenty miles left on the engines, but, the transmission is always shot. I think Scotty has a video on those. They are fun while they run. 🤗
