I watch your videos daily---It is like therapy---I am an industrial maintenance person---Chrysler Kenosha engine plant retired (still working)---After 45 years and 15 vehicles driven---I have come to the conclusion that the entire vehicle industry has conspired to brainwash society into buying things they do not need--I love watching and learning from common sense type people--After researching for the last 8 months I have come to the conclusion that one of the best vehicles to buy is a Kia sportage--front wheel drive- non turbo-6 speed auto--regular tires no low profile--2.4 liter engine similar to the Jeep/Chrysler world engine developed with Hyundai ~ 2004--I can get a 2019 like new 24,000- miles for $16,400-- smooth, quiet, safe, and actually luxurious ------Toyota new engines are loud and transmissions are not smooth, others not any better--------------AM I WRONG ???????------Yes I am cheap---I have seen what happens in a billion dollar engine plant---Base product vehicles and top of the line vehicles are all the same in a way-----Thanks for all your hard work on those videos----good luck in your new home

@klob
true words. Sometimes reliability isn't everything.
Agree .. I have put myself into a position I can daily driver and fun cars. I try and do 99% of work on car myself. Which saved me a ton of money. Bought my tools up over time.
But a lesson I have learnt. Never ever make your fun car your daily driver.. u dont want to pulling something off ..find u are stuck with the pressure of time.
Good luck
@klob
That's possible when money is no problem.
Agree .. but I am not rich and just a working man myself.
But learn how to fix cars from the school hard knocks.
Bought junker and fix them up and sold them just to fund my hobby.
Good luck my friend
