Will the 4 screws be enough to hold the reel full of water and with the pulling load? Should we use lag bolts into the studs instead?
@JustCarPeopleThings3 күн бұрын
You could totally use lag bolts as overkill, but understand a 3"+ construction rated screw can easily hold over 100lbs on its own. the risk of pulling it out of the wall are very low. obviously, you want to be screwing into solid studs and not just drywall.

@JustCarPeopleThings5 күн бұрын
I did 500, 5000, and 15,000. The extra one in the middle was probably overkill, but the fluid is cheap and very easy to do on the lift. I believe the service interval is 15k.

Those are OE but NGK Iridium’s are seen as equivalent and commonly used too. Doesn’t seem to be much consensus that one is dramatically better than the other. I did notice a slight uptick in fuel economy and the car seems to idle better. Either way, these are very stout engines and a good, quality plug from NGK or Denso will work just fine.

Great video. Would you recommend sun roof option on the 1le? I hear it affects structural rigidity of the car whatever that means but at the same time it's a sun roof lol. Also, what's the cutoff year that's similar to the 23/24? For example, 20,21,22 etc. Thanks.
@JustCarPeopleThings2 ай бұрын
I didn't opt for the sunroof as I'm a bit taller, the sunroof costs you 1-2 inches of headroom, which is particularly a problem for anyone over 6' who wants to wear a helmet. The rigidity thing is less of a concern as the Alpha platform is so stiff. All 1LE's are very similar from 2017 to present, but obviously as you get newer, it probably gets a bit more reliable/better sorted.

I have the same exact car, a 21 though. It’s not my daily driver though, so I only have 4600 miles on it right now. When I first got it I would stress over the little stuff like rock chips and stuff, but I’m slowly accepting the fact that it’s going to happen. The only things I’ve done to the car is RotoFab intake and Corsa exhaust with x-pipe. I thought it sounded good stock, but the Corsa is 🔥🔥🔥! I also added side skirts and rock guards too, because like you said, the tires pick up every little pebble…

Pretending there is no budget would you trade your 2ss 1le for a ls7 vet / camaro or is there anything you think is a more engaging car? Your car is really sweet thinking about getting one in that color or black. It's a shame no physical hand break, but I don't think it affects anything besides snow driving. Comparing this to a Mustang 350r or Mach 1 you got this because it handles better in corners right? I was cross shopping this car with an Lc 500/ rc f but no Japan manufactures offer rwd v8 with a manual. Even a Jaguar f type svr you can get for 60k a supercharged v8 with flashier looks but reliability now that's a different story. I thought the type r/ integra type s was neat but a 4 cylinder fwd car as great as it might handle wouldn't be as fun in the long term I believe. Classic v8 rwd is the move. I'm coming from a fwd v6 Avalon so I wanna move up in engine lol. Thanks! I learn a lot from your vids!

Nearly bought a C7 GS in Long Beach Red. It was such a great car but the notion of slapping snows on it and driving it year round…it just didn’t make sense.

Thanks for sharing. A year of use is a good time to reflect on how well you like your car or truck. Thanks also for the tip on the on star. Like a bozo I started with the on star when I bought my 2024 SS 1. Due to low usage, I felt it was a waste of money. I did like the theft protection that was offered. But dropped it. Had to laugh that they were willing to drop the cost just to keep me.Wow thanks for overcharging me from the get-go! Give them an inch. well, you know the rest. I've also notice the road goup that sticks to the lower panels coming up from the front tires mine are only 8.5 rims in the front. This is my first time having a car with Magne Ride, so far, I'm really pleased. Handles like a champ. Going to get the front PPFed soon before getting chips. I too looked at the eBay PPF, but like you it was the price that look good. But knowing a good place to take mine, I'm going to bite the bullet and get someone who does that for his living, not to mention the warranty included. Chips with a white car are easy to hide somewhat but slowing them down from the start maybe even better. Hope you get miles of smiles out of your 1LE.
