Speaker 1: Ron Anian.

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 2: The guess cap was loose, and I usually don't like

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 2: to touch gas caps because I don't know if I'm

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: hiding the problem, ignoring the problem, creating a problem.

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: I'd rather smoke it. No, I don't smoke it no more.

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,479
Speaker 1: I'm trying to wake it up on the phone, the

7
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: car Doctor.

8
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,319
Speaker 3: The problem is that my gas gage doesn't work on

9
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 3: that track.

10
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 4: Okay, because I understand to replace the gas gage is

11
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 4: a pretty big job.

12
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: Well is it? The gaugers at the sending you.

13
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 5: Welcome to the radio home of ron Anian, the Car Doctor.

14
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 5: Since nineteen ninety one, this is where car owners the

15
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 5: world overturned to for their definitive opinion on automotive repair.

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 5: If your mechanics giving you a busy signal, pick up

17
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 5: the phone and call in the garage doors.

18

Speaker 6: Joe in Michigan. Joe Michigan, you're my leadoff. How can

29
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:14,759
Speaker 6: I help you today?

30
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: Sir?

31
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 4: Hey? Ron?

32
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 7: How you doing?

33
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 4: Oh?

34
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 8: I love your show man, Thank you.

35
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. What's cooking?

36
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 8: Okay? I?

37
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 4: Uh? Ron? I just bought a a brand new Chevy

38
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 4: Track twenty five Chevy Track, okay, and I haven't done

39
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 4: an oil change on it yet.

40
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 8: I was wondering what you thought about using synthetic oil

41
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 8: on my oil oil changes?

42
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 6: Well, I think that's all you're going to be able

43
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 6: to use, all right, What's what's the discuss?

44
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: What's the viscosity rating for the vehicle? Do you know?

45
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 9: Oh?

46
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 8: Ron, I don't know that, Okay, I don't know that.

47
00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 6: Most most vehicles today, most modern vehicles today just synthetic.

48
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: And it's for a variety of reasons. If it's if

49
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: it's a.

50
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 6: Zero twenty car, there there is no zero twenty conventional

51
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 6: that I've ever found. All right, So from a vescal

52
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 6: so from a viscosity point of view, if it's zero twenty,

53
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 6: it's going to be synthetic. If it's a five point

54
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 6: thirty or a five twenty car, you know, to use

55
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 6: synthetic to me, just makes sense if you had the

56
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 6: if you had the option to use conventional, to use

57
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 6: a synthetic just makes more sense. A synthetic oil is

58
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 6: more molecularly balanced, meaning it's it's it's better chicken soup

59
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 6: for the car, if you know what I'm saying. You know,

60
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 6: if mom were.

61
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: Telling you to eat your chicken.

62
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 6: Soup because you're sick. The other thing, and probably the

63
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 6: key thing to look for when you're picking out oil

64
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 6: is it has to meet the manufacturer respect. It has

65
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 6: to meet specificy all right. So you know, as I

66
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 6: said last Dar, and I've said in the past, go

67
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 6: into the supermarket everybody's in the supermarket at least once

68
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 6: a week, and go down the automotiveile, turn around bottle

69
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 6: of oil. Start reading the back of that bottle. Does

70
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 6: that bottle meet GM spec? Does it meet Ford spec?

71
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 6: Does it meet Volkswagen spec? You know, we literally have

72
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 6: cabinets stocked with you know, three four different kinds of

73
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 6: five thirty three, four different kinds of five twenty. You know,

74
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 6: I can't tell you how many different transmission fluids we

75
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 6: keep in the shop. I can't tell you specifics on

76
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 6: driveline fluids because everything is a specific requirement. So it's

77
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 6: clearly not one size fits all, one brand fits all,

78
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 6: one one designation fits all. It has to meet with

79
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 6: the manufacturer saying, so just just so.

80
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 8: Important, right, Okay, So all right, okay, you.

81
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 4: Know second question, No, Well, just one thing I wanted

82
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 4: to add to on the on the oil.

83
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 8: Actually I did I now that I remember, I did

84
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 8: see something on the cab that didn't say five W

85
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 8: thirty or anything. I think I think I could be

86
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 8: like a zero and then something and I was like,

87
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 8: I've never seen that before. You know, what kind of

88
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 8: oil is that?

89
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 6: Right?

90
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: So zero, it's either zero twenty.

91
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 6: I don't believe GM is using zero sixteen, which would

92
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 6: be a Toyota vehicle. Mostly at this point, I haven't

93
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 6: seen zero sixteen or anything other than a Toyota. But

94
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 6: I'm guessing it's going to be a zero twenty and

95
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 6: in that case, it's going to be synthetic. And I

96
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 6: would you know, I'm a if it's brand new, I'm

97
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 6: a change the oil in the first Oh listen, I'll

98
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 6: be generous fifteen hundred two thousand mile range because to me,

99
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 6: that first oil change, it's not just changing oil, it's

100
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 6: also looking the vehicle over leaks, drips, bolts, clamps assembled right,

101
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 6: missing this missing that. I'm very cynical on a new vehicle,

102
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 6: you know, assembly. I'm just overly cautious. Now I will

103
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 6: say this too, I have noticed of late that most

104
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 6: of these little turbocharged engines, not just the Chevy Tracks,

105
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 6: just all of them. They're coming in five six thousand

106
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 6: miles that oil is smoked, black, beat up, lucky murky.

107
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 4: You know.

108
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 6: The turbo chargers are making these little engines work that

109
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 6: much harder.

110
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, we're.

111
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 6: Trying to make We're trying to make somebody that's out

112
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 6: of shape run uphill on a bicycle at the same

113
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 6: time carrying a fifty pounds sackets. We're making everything work harder,

114
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 6: you know.

115
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 8: So at should I stick at the three thousand ranges?

116
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 4: I would do.

117
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 6: I would do the first one fifteen two grand and

118
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 6: make sure obviously they're a good filter on it, all right,

119
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 6: either a no Wee filter or a Wis you know,

120
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 6: a Wix oil filter will do a great job there

121
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 6: for you. And you know then then at that point,

122
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 6: you know, if you want to go to a five

123
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 6: six thousand mile interval. It will also come down to

124
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 6: how often, you know, how how many minys you're going

125
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 6: to put a year on this car. But you've got

126
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 6: to understand, it's a it's a little engine in a

127
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 6: moderate sized car. It's going to work really hard. So

128
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 6: good oil, good filters, you know.

129
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, I think that's.

130
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 8: I think it's a one point two leads right.

131
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it's tiny, it's tiny. It's it's it's moving

132
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: that mass down the road.

133
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 10: You know.

134
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: So if you go out to uh, if you go out.

135
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 6: To wicksfilters dot com, you can read about oil filters.

136
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 6: They read about older filters, but you can read about

137
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 6: oil filters and what they do and how they do it.

138
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 6: And you know, oil filters are critical and like I said,

139
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 6: quality of oil and specificity of oil is just.

140
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: Very very important. Also, was there a third question? Joe?

141
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 8: Well, Yo, we'll quick. There's a nineteen eighty four oldimobile

142
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 8: ninety eight across the street from me that's been parked

143
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 8: there for like twenty five years. It's covered up.

144
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,559
Speaker 4: The guys get ready to sell it.

145
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 8: You guy have to do a lot of work.

146
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 6: Sell it or drunk sell it or junket I mean

147
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 6: really twenty five twenty five years.

148
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: Brother, Yeah, uh, you know it's.

149
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 6: It's it's take the cover off and decide how much

150
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 6: you want them to pay you to take it off

151
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 6: his hands. You know, I love I love these I

152
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 6: love these guys that hang on to these things that

153
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 6: Oh my.

154
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 8: God, Ron, I can't believe it. The car is beautiful,

155
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 8: but he's just been sitting there right.

156
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 4: You know.

157
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: It's they they let it sit there.

158
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 6: They have these they have these obnoxious dreams about oh,

159
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 6: I'm going to put it back on the road someday,

160
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 6: or I'm going to drive it someday, or you know,

161
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 6: come on, you know in Michigan, in Michigan, this is

162
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 6: a Michigan car, Joe.

163
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you know, the.

164
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 6: Northeast, depending upon the climate cold, hot. You know, I

165
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 6: don't see a lot of cars survive long term sitting

166
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 6: storage in the Northeast, sitting outside.

167
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 8: Yes, outside, Yeah, you got you.

168
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 6: Gotta ask him, how how much is he going to

169
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 6: pay you to remove all the mice and animals and

170
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 6: all the things that have crawled up inside.

171
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: That come on?

172
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 8: You know exactly.

173
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 6: You know I'd have to, Joe, I'd have to see it,

174
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 6: to be honest, all right, it's a simple car to

175
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 6: work on.

176
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: Now, keep in mind this is an eighty four. Yeah, yeah, so.

177
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 8: Either three or eighty four ninety eight all right.

178
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 6: In nineteen eighty one, General Motors went electronic computer command control.

179
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 6: I remember going to class for it down at the

180
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 6: training center way back when electronic carburetors. Oh my god,

181
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 6: come on, all the seals have dried out. Everything's going

182
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 6: to have to be rebuilt, all the rubber parts.

183
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: It's it's it's you won't know until you try to

184
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: start it. Listen it.

185
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 6: Maybe put a battery in it, make sure the oil

186
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 6: is up to level, make sure the oil still has

187
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 6: is fluid.

188
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: It may start right up. But you know, from a

189
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: practical point.

190
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 6: Of view, you know, what could what could it be worth?

191
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 6: It's an eighty four old it was. It was kind

192
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 6: of but ugly in the day. It wasn't exactly a

193
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 6: desirable car. I mean, come on, we're talking, you know,

194
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 6: it's you know, if it was a seventy four, you're

195
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 6: right on the fringe of okay, But the eighties cars, yeah,

196
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 6: you know, I would really be shocked under what's underneath

197
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 6: that what's underneath that cover?

198
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: I'll put it to you this way.

199
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 6: About four months ago, all right, four months ago, I

200
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 6: cleaned out the books at the shop, you know, because

201
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 6: the library was just it was, it was becoming a

202
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 6: room onto its own. If it was made, if it

203
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 6: was made nineteen eighty or less, I kept the book.

204
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 6: If it was made nineteen ninety five or newer, I

205
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 6: kept the book that fifteen year span between eighty one

206
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 6: and ninety five. Those books are gone because those cars

207
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 6: are gone, because those parts are gone and nobody wants them.

208
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you know, you know you're not.

209
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: Is there something in there that's desirable? Yeah, I'm sure

210
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: there is.

211
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 6: I'm sure somebody's getting upset because I'm saying this, But

212
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 6: you know, reality is except for the occasional maybe a

213
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,679
Speaker 6: Z twenty eight or a Mustang or or something from

214
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 6: the Chrysler family, you know.

215
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 1: Or I mean, listen, I just heard a story the

216
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: other day.

217
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 6: In eighty six, Toyota Ursell sold for fifteen grand, a

218
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 6: customer of our sould to somebody because it was like

219
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 6: some super desirable front wheel drive. Yeah whatever, you know,

220
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 6: there's that odd ble. But as a rule, an eighty

221
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 6: four oldsmobile. My question is, why did the guy park

222
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 6: it in the first place. You know it's probably gonna

223
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 6: be well. You know, the trans had slippage because those

224
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 6: had the turbohydramatic two hundred trans as they were the

225
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 6: small trans in the big car. Oh yeah, and they

226
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 6: didn't right, and they didn't hold up. Come on, and

227
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 6: then you've got to think all these years sitting and

228
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 6: rotting and gaskets and oh my god, listen, I'm supposed

229
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 6: to be cheery and positive, so I'm gonna leave it here.

230
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 6: I'm positive there's problems. I'm cheerfully going to tell you

231
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 6: it's not worth a lot, and just ask the guy

232
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 6: how much he's going to pay you to take it

233
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 6: off his property.

234
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 1: So and then he'll look at you like you've got

235
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: three heads. All right, kiddo, Good luck to you.

236
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,480

00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 6: Oh my god, what's it worth? Not much? What's the

240
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 6: price of scrap today? I'm running any in the car doctor.

241
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 6: I'll be back right after this.

Speaker 6: Here's Rob Let's Oh, let's go to Kansas and talk

246
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 6: to Mark twenty one Chevy truck and some questions.

247
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: Mark, Welcome to the car doctor. Sir, How can I

248
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: help you?

249
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 7: I'm contemplating purchasing this truck. It has twenty four twenty

250
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 7: five thousand miles on it. Okay, you were talking about

251
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 7: electronics going out not being able to get part.

252
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 3: Uh.

253
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 7: It is a four wheel drive, two wheel drive, then

254
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 7: there's a button for pose track. It has a four

255
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 7: wheel low and then it has an all wheel drive.

256
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 1: Okay.

257
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 7: It sounds like the more things are on these things,

258
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 7: the more that there's to go wrong. What is your

259
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 7: thought about it?

260
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's.

261
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 6: Listen, that's that's always been the way, right. But the

262
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 6: problem becomes or the fact is, you can't get away

263
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 6: from it.

264
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 10: There there is you can't.

265
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: You can't.

266
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 6: You know either either that or you're gonna go back

267
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 6: fifty years and buy a seventy eight k fifteen hundred

268
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 6: square body GM right with a four with a four

269
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 6: fourth four wheel drive lever on the floor, and you

270
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 6: know you're gonna be fifty grand deep into that because

271
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 6: by the time you buy it and go through it

272
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 6: and restore it and bring it back to level. And

273
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 6: then you're gonna buy two more trucks to sit in

274
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 6: the yard for parts.

275
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: So you know, where where does it go? You know,

276
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 1: I've said did this for years. Mark.

277
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 6: They're losing site. They've lost sight of what an automobile was.

278
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 6: Was supposed to be. An automobile was designed to replace

279
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 6: the horse. It wasn't because they wanted to give us

280
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 6: something to watch go drag racing on Saturday night, okay,

281
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 6: or you know it was it was. It was meant

282
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 6: to replace the horse as a basic means of transportation

283
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 6: to get back and forth to work, to do our jobs, to.

284
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: You know, live life.

285
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 6: They've made them so complicated and so overly complex. You

286
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 6: know what I was, And I sort of an aside

287
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 6: to your question. You know, I wonder what happens when

288
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 6: people go to rent cars. Imagine the person that comes

289
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 6: out of a twenty twelve automobile and they go to

290
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 6: rent a car traveling on business maybe, and they get

291
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 6: into a twenty twenty five model something. I you know,

292
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 6: I recently went through this. My plumber drives a twenty

293
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 6: nineteen Ford van. He was going to Kentucky on a

294
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 6: family reunion. He rented a twenty twenty four Toyota Cea

295
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 6: in a minivan.

296
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: He had to come by.

297
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 6: I had to show him how to, you know, engage

298
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 6: the Bluetooth, how to use the GPS, how to use

299
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 6: the electronics in the car, because it's just it's overwhelming.

300
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 6: So I think part of the answer is we've got

301
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 6: to get creative in how we source parts. And I

302
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 6: think once the vehicle is paid off, if you're planning

303
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 6: to keep a vehicle, if you buy this twenty one

304
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 6: and you're planning to keep it ten years, right, you've

305
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 6: got to start to go ahead.

306
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 7: I'm still driving a ninety six Ford Ranger, but my

307
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 7: mechanic get parts for it. I have a brand new

308
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 7: ninety six Pontiac Bonneville fitting in a climatically controlled garage

309
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 7: with only twenty thousand miles on it, but getting more difficult.

310
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 7: You know. My other question is what is the three

311
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 7: what is the three points or the five point three

312
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 7: leader v eight? What is the What is your opinion

313
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 7: about that as far as the engine goes? And then

314
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 7: also what is eco boost? What does that mean?

315
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 6: Oh, that's their fancy way of talking. If it's an

316
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 6: ego boost engine. It's it's gonna be turbo charts. That

317
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 6: five to three is not an ego boost correct.

318
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 7: Uh, that's I hope not. But he Selvian said something

319
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 7: about eco boost.

320
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 6: No, maybe he was talking about a variable cylinder displacement.

321
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 6: The twenty one Silverado with a five to three should

322
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 6: be a variable cylinder displacement where they deactivate cylinders, so

323
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 6: it will it will run as a V six on

324
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 6: the highway as under certain modes. And that's a whole

325
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 6: other can of worms. All right, you know, I think,

326
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 6: go ahead. I like the Silverados. I've had four of

327
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 6: them over the past we else, beginning in model year

328
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 6: eighty one, you know, do the mask I generally get

329
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 6: rid of them, not because of mileage, but because I

330
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 6: plow with them and I'm kind of hard on them,

331
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 6: and I don't have time to do major repairs, and

332
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 6: it's just easier for me to, you know, as a

333
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 6: business decision, replace it by another one. You know, I

334
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 6: don't want to be out in a snowstorm broken down somewhere,

335
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 6: you know, I don't.

336
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: I don't like that.

337
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 6: I don't like that idea, you know, I think, out

338
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 6: of all the big trucks. I think Chevy makes a

339
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 6: heck of a truck, you know, I think it's a

340
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 6: matter of doing oil changes, in maintenance. It's a matter

341
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 6: of getting created. My O four suburban just is finally

342
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 6: creeping up on ninety five thousand miles, and you know,

343
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 6: I've got a pile of parts and I'm looking everywhere.

344
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 6: One of the companies I'm really paying very close attention to, well,

345
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 6: I have over the years, but I'm finding more and more.

346
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 6: There is Dorman Dormanproducts dot Com. They're actually coming out

347
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 6: I can't say, actually they have out electronics. I just

348
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 6: bought a heater air conditioning control head for my suburban

349
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 6: through Dormant. They're starting to replicate a lot of the

350
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 6: parts that are now obsolete by manufacturer.

351
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: So they give me hope.

352
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 6: They give me hope that, hey, here's a possibility, right,

353
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 6: you know that we'll be able to get stuff, you know,

354
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 6: because the things that the manufacturers make obsolete just boggles

355
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 6: my mind. You know, you can't hear, you can't. I

356
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 6: defy anybody to go find a master cylinder for a

357
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 6: ten year old anything. It's it's crazy from the manufacturer.

358
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 6: Let me throw that caveat in there. Maybe it's not ten,

359
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 6: maybe it's twelve years. I can't tell you how many

360
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 6: two thousand and nine f one. We've got a customer

361
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 6: right now with a two thousand and nine f one

362
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 6: fifty can't buy a master cylinder for the truck. Now,

363
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 6: you explain that to me. You know, two thousand and

364
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 6: nine f one fifties. They made a few of those, right,

365
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,360
Speaker 6: They're not just you know, they're not just some new

366
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 6: off the wall vehicle, like how many of those were made?

367
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 6: But you can't buy a master cylinder for it. You

368
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 6: can barely find one in the aftermarket. You can't buy

369
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 6: one from the manufacturer. Shame on these manufacturers that they're

370
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 6: doing that and they're forcing us to buy the newer stuff.

371
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 6: Which somebody said it to me the other day. You know,

372
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 6: you buy a new car, it doesn't mean you're buying

373
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 6: something better. You're just buying something you can get access

374
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 6: to more replacement parts for it that you're probably gonna need.

375
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: In the long run.

376
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 6: So anyway, I hope I helped you, Mark, But yeah,

377
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 6: think about dormant, think about successive oil changes on a

378
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 6: constant basis. I'm ron an Indian I'll be back right

379
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 6: after this. Well, here we are, you know, down to

380
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 6: the last half hour this week. We are smoking it

381
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 6: this week. Holy cow. Let's go over to Chris and

382
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 6: Delaware eight FJ and some transmission issues. Chris, you're on

383
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 6: with the car doctor at eight five five five six

384
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 6: zero nine nine zero zero.

385
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: How can I help?

386
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks for taking my call. Like I said, I

387
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 3: have an eight FJ and it has one hundred and

388
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 3: eighty seven thousand on it.

389
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: I bought it with a excuse me, just broken in.

390
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 3: Just broken in, well, and I bought it with one

391
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 3: hundred and five on it, not really knowing what the

392
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 3: maintenance was on the on the automatic okay. But after

393
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 3: about twenty five thirty thousand, I had it flushed with

394
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 3: a reliable transmission flush fluid okay. And and anyway, probably

395
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 3: another fifteen thousand miles later, it started to whine a lot,

396
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 3: and my mechanic, who I trust, said that the transmission

397
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 3: is failing and it's probably not long okay, And it's

398
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 3: and it's at this point in time is not it's

399
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 3: not slipping, but it's you know, as he says, it's

400
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 3: probably going to happen. It's common, but right, Yeah, so

401
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 3: it's gonna be about five thousand replace it. And I

402
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 3: just you know, listening to your show when you mentioned

403
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 3: that there's supply chain issues. I know you mentioned mostly forwards,

404
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 3: but where you can't get parts on these older cars,

405
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 3: you know, modules and abs, modules and such that they're

406
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 3: not produced. I just wondered if if Toyota has the

407
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 3: same issues as you know, as other makers, and you know,

408
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 3: are there is there an achilles heel as far as

409
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 3: the modules and electrical stuff goes that goes wrong with

410
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 3: Toyotas because I would I want to preserve the car,

411
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 3: and I'd be willing to go buy the module and

412
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 3: have it sitting on my shelf.

413
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 6: You sure, Yeah, absolutely great question. And I think as

414
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 6: a rule, if I had to give points to anybody,

415
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 6: I'd say Toyota has a slight edge amongst all the

416
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 6: car manufacturers.

417
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: They tend to keep.

418
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 6: Parts a little longer. It's it's probably Toyota, Honda, Ford, GM,

419
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 6: and Chrysler.

420
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: I just see.

421
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 6: But Christ has been through so many owners in the

422
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 6: last twenty years. You know, you wonder who's got the

423
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 6: keys to the warehouse and who's who's keeping the parts

424
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 6: and making the decisions you wonder. So that being said,

425
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 6: but you know, talk to your mechanic, start thinking about

426
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 6: critical systems. If you needed a radiator, If you needed

427
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 6: a radiator for this car, radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses.

428
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 6: We know you can always get a thermostat. Motorad makes

429
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 6: great thermostats. I have no problem putting a ownerrat stat

430
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 6: in anything, you know, But you know, can you get

431
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 6: a radiator for it? Can you get hoses for it?

432
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 6: You know, sure you can get hoses. Gates is out there, absolutely,

433
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 6: But can you get major components? Water pump, radiator? Could

434
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 6: you get a fuel pump for this out of Toyota

435
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 6: if that's what you wanted? Can he get one from

436
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 6: a decent brand? Cause and I won't I won't tell

437
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 6: you the brands I'm gonna use because I'm in North Jersey,

438
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 6: and North Jersey is gonna be different than Delaware is

439
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 6: going to be different than California is gonna be different

440
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 6: than Florida because everybody's got regional issues. That being said,

441
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 6: the electronics is a national issue. And I will say

442
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 6: this out of you know, out of all the repairs

443
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 6: we do on a regular basis, I think modules are

444
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 6: the smallest percentage of actual module replacement. I think we're

445
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 6: more likely to do software updates and enhancements than actual

446
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 6: module replacement. But yeah, it wouldn't it wouldn't hurt to know.

447
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 6: I mean, ask your mechanic to find out if you

448
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 6: need it to get a main engine controller for this

449
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 6: vehicle or there's there's probably I'm gonna say probably there is.

450
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 6: There's a trans control module of some level for this vehicle.

451
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 6: Could you get a replacement one of those? You know,

452
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 6: it comes down to it's no secret. I drive an

453
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 6: OH for suburban. That's my everyday vehicle. It's and I

454
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 6: made a decision in a long time ago that every

455
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 6: month I take a look at pattern failures. Most repair

456
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 6: shops if they're on an automated shop management system. We're

457
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 6: on Mitchell Mitchell one's shop management, And with Mitchell One's

458
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 6: shop management, I can look at and see what common

459
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 6: repairs my vehicle goes through every month. You know, what's

460
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 6: what's failing, what's what's everybody replacing. And I sit there

461
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 6: and I look at that, and I go, well, let's see,

462
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 6: according to Mitchell, this is what I'm using. Then I

463
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 6: want to buy fuel pumps. I want to put a

464
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 6: fuel pump on the shelf. I've got right now. I've

465
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 6: got GM factory fuel pump, air conditioning compressor. I overhould

466
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 6: the cooling system five years ago. I'm good there for

467
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,479
Speaker 6: a while. You know, I don't think that I'll ever

468
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 6: have to do it again, because by then I'll be

469
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 6: done with the vehicle.

470
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:46,479
Speaker 1: You know.

471
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 6: It's it's I'm using the shop management software to tell

472
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 6: me what's likely to fail. I've got window regulators because

473
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 6: it's cheaper to put a monthly parts payment on the shelf.

474
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,160
Speaker 6: Because I don't have a car payment anymore. Then it'll

475
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 6: it will be to go replace that suburban. That suburban

476
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 6: is one hundred and five thousand dollars now.

477
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 3: Right, That's that's my thought too. Yeah, I want to

478
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 3: preserve this thing right now.

479
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: Now, you know, what's the rust like on that vehicle?

480
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: All right? And what's the undercarriage look like?

481
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 3: And yeah, I know they tend to rust, but mine looks.

482
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,719
Speaker 6: Good, right, you know upside You know, you gotta get

483
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 6: underneath it, and you got to look at the underneath

484
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 6: and then.

485
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 3: If that trend is going to pour four fifteen the

486
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 3: frame on it.

487
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, poor fifteen or New Hampshire oil undercoating is a

488
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 6: great product, you know, to take to take a look

489
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 6: at that. You know, my one question would be, and

490
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 6: this may sound weird, but it's five thousand dollars enough

491
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 6: to spend on that trends. Is that being rebuilt at

492
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 6: a local level or is that a Toyota Reman unit?

493
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 3: And you know, I was told it's going to be

494
00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 3: a Reman unit, but you know, like a jasper or okay, right,

495
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 3: you know?

496
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 6: And then and then so then what does what does

497
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 6: a trans out of Toyota cost?

498
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: Right?

499
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 6: If the trans out of Toyota was seven grand and

500
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 6: the reman, whoever it is, is five grand, that we

501
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 6: know that Toyota trans the original Toyota trans got you

502
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 6: to one hundred and eighty with no maintenance or little maintenance. Right,

503
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 6: I don't know that. I don't know that the reman's

504
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 6: going to do that because that that Toyota trans to me,

505
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 6: the rebuilders are having problems meeting the testing standards that

506
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 6: the manufacturers enable and go through. And I see that

507
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 6: on a lot of components. And then the last seed

508
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 6: I'm going to plant in your mind too, Actually, if

509
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 6: I can is if the engine failed tomorrow, not saying

510
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 6: it will. But if the engine failed tomorrow, would you

511
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 6: put an engine in it? And what would that cost?

512
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 6: And then if you put I don't know in the

513
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 6: next year, if you put ten thousand dollars worth of

514
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 6: widgets in this truck, transmission breaks, tire shocks, whatever, right,

515
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 6: and it gets totaled.

516
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: What's your insurance.

517
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 6: Company going to pay you on it? If you still

518
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 6: have collision on it? And if you don't have collision

519
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 6: on it, is it a total lasson? Are you're ready

520
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 6: to accept that?

521
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 10: I'm not.

522
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 6: I'm not saying you shouldn't. You've just got you know,

523
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 6: this is like you're getting married. You've got to ask

524
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 6: yourself all the questions.

525
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 1: Right, Okay?

526
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 3: So your point, yeah, and you didn't even think about

527
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 3: it get totaled, But that that makes sense, right, you know?

528
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: So you know, are you ready to accept that? You know?

529
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: Or do you find an outside insurance company?

530
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 4: You know?

531
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 6: Do you go to a Haggarty and you know what,

532
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,160
Speaker 6: will Haggarty let you put because it's it's an older

533
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 6: vehicle now, and will Haggarty let you ensure that? What

534
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 6: are the age limits? I think it's twenty years? But

535
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:50,719
Speaker 6: you're creeping up on that.

536
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: Now.

537
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,919
Speaker 6: I've also heard some of this, Yeah, yeah, some of

538
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 6: the some of the classic insurance companies are allowing you

539
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 6: to ensure everyday vehicles if you have they classic car

540
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 6: insured with them from the get go. So there's a

541
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 6: lot of factors here. You know, I'm not saying don't

542
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 6: drive an older vehicle, and I'm not saying the parts

543
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 6: issues will bring you to a stop. I'm just telling you,

544
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 6: you know what, just be aware that it's not going

545
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 6: to be turn key solutions in twenty minutes. It takes

546
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 6: a little bit of diggery, a little bit of effort,

547
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 6: but you know, that's life. That's life in the year

548
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 6: twenty twenty four, right, So that's what we.

549
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: All go through.

550
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 3: I just didn't know because I think it's the same

551
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 3: chassis and everything as a for runner, I believe. I

552
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 3: sure thought maybe the parts would be uh well, it

553
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 3: would be more readily available.

554
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 6: A lot of the suspension, you know, a lot of

555
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 6: the suspension, the breaks, the mounts, but the electronics I

556
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 6: find vary by model to model, depending upon the manufacturers.

557
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 6: So you can't take that as for granted. So but

558
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 6: you know, just just go think about what I said,

559
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 6: I think it's a great decision. I think it's a

560
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 6: great vehicle. Just like I said, you're getting married. You're

561
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 6: not doing this to get another two years out of it.

562
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 6: You're doing this to get another six to eight years

563
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 6: out of it. So I'm running Indie in the car doctor.

Speaker 6: fourteen Town and country. Ben, how can I help you, sir?

575

Speaker 6: Run an Indian at your service?

576
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 10: All right, thanks for taking michell. I got a fourteen

577
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 10: down the country, one hundred and eighty thousand miles on it.

578
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 10: My mechanic I have a won't pass inspection for some

579
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 10: cold that came up, and so we cleared those codes,

580
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 10: changed the fuel injector. But now a code comes up

581
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 10: and says emissions code, and it's for fuel and oxygen

582
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 10: next year. And my question is.

583
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 9: Is I I.

584
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 10: Think that I'm going to go with just replacing the engine, okay,

585
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 10: because he's got to tear down the engine to even

586
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 10: get to see whatever else is wrong inside the motor, right,

587
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 10: what do you think? Well, you know, I got to

588
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 10: have a pass inspection, you know, so it's you know,

589
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 10: one of the things.

590
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: Right.

591
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 6: So so let's just let's just walk ourselves through this. Obviously,

592
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 6: buying a replacement vehicle is out of the question, right, correct, Okay,

593
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 6: So what's it going to cost to put an engine

594
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 6: in it?

595
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 10: It's going to be is twenty nine for the twenty

596
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 10: nine hundred for the engine, right, and that's from you know,

597
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 10: your local picking parts here, right, and which I didn't

598
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 10: think that. I thought that was kind of high, but

599
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 10: I guess that's what that's how much they're going for now. Well,

600
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,239
Speaker 10: and you've got one hundred thousand miles on it, right,

601
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 10: and it's you know, then I got labor on top

602
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 10: of that, right, So.

603
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 6: It's gonna let's let's let's call it five grand all in, right,

604
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 6: you know, hoses, belts, tune up parts, Let's say five

605
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 6: grand fixes it all right, And my one question becomes,

606
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 6: and three months from now it pukes the trans.

607
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: How happy has been? Right?

608
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 10: Right?

609
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 6: So that's that's the first question. The second question is

610
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 6: you're going to put five grand into this. Let's say

611
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 6: life is wonderful as we go down the golden path

612
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 6: and transmission doesn't fail and the car runs for another

613
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 6: how long does Ben wanted to run for?

614
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: Two years? Five years?

615
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 4: Right?

616
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 6: How long are you trying to get out of it?

617
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 6: Because you know, yeah, you're not just you know, you're

618
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 6: not just replacing an engine. You're getting married to it.

619
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 6: And you know, so you know as much as you know.

620
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 6: I remember my old boss explaining it to him. He said,

621
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 6: nobody has the money to replace a car until they

622
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 6: are faced with it in the stark reality of they

623
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 6: must replace the car, which I always thought was an

624
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 6: interesting way.

625
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: To explain it.

626
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 6: And I'm not saying you must, I'm just saying you've

627
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 6: got to think about this, right. It doesn't have to

628
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 6: be a new vehicle if if you know, and it's

629
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 6: a met listen, this is a matter of budget and

630
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 6: choice and expense, and everybody's financial situation is a little different,

631
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 6: you know, but you know, if if you're going to

632
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 6: spend five grand, what does ten grand get you? What

633
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 6: does fifteen grand get you? Right, you've got to look

634
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 6: at that. You know you are you are putting five

635
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 6: grand into a ten year old vehicle, which and you

636
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 6: might have if you heard the show before I was talking,

637
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 6: Christ has probably got the worst track record for longevity

638
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 6: on parts, right, So you know it's are we are

639
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 6: we shoveling good money? After bed? You know, do you

640
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 6: need a minivan? Do you need a minivan?

641
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 10: Ben? Yes?

642
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: You do? Okay, So you know there's.

643
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 6: A premium there you're probably gonna spend if I were

644
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 6: to guess twenty five to thirty on something decent in

645
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 6: the used vehicle market, So could just swing twenty five

646
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 6: or thirty? And before you say yes, you got to

647
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:28,959
Speaker 6: look at it all. You know, you got to think

648
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 6: about what you're spending. You got to think about the

649
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 6: whole you know what else, and you got to play

650
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 6: what if? You really got to play what if with

651
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 6: this one, because what if something else breaks? Are you

652
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 6: going to be able to find reason to replace that

653
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 6: as well?

654
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: Number one? Number two?

655
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 6: Ask your mechanic is replacing the engine absolutely positively going

656
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 6: to fix your problem, catalytic converters, radiators, cooling systems, all

657
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 6: that stuff.

658
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: Do that.

659
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 6: Call me back next week, let's talk about it. I'm

660
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 6: running any in the car doctor. We're back right after this.

661
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: Hey.

662
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 6: So you know, judging by your questions this hour and

663
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 6: the previous hour, it's obvious a lot of you are

664
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 6: putting big money into older vehicles and you know, trying

665
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 6: to keep them going longer. And I can understand why,

666
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 6: with the price of new vehicles what they are, and

667
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 6: you know what things cost. So I want to tell

668
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 6: you this story. I want you to think of it

669
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 6: from this perspective, because here's another angle. We had a

670
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 6: twenty fourteen Nissan Frontier that came into the shop this week.

671
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 6: And Paul's a regular customer, he's been coming in for years,

672
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 6: and we've done all the maintenance. We know the history

673
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 6: of that vehicle. That vehicle has been maintained. It's straight

674
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 6: up and ready to go. He's getting ready to tow

675
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 6: his smaller boat down to Florida in late January early February,

676
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 6: and obviously Florida is a little warmer and a lot

677
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 6: hotter than North Jersey, and he's going to do it

678
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 6: in a ten year old vehicle with one hundred five

679
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 6: thousand miles on it. You know, ten years old, one

680
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 6: five thousand. It's not like it was twenty years ago.

681
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 6: But it's getting up there. It's at midlife as far

682
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 6: as I'm concerned. So one of the things I noticed

683
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 6: in the last service this week was it was down

684
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 6: about a quarter of cooling, so I topped up the

685
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 6: cooling system. I saw no leaks, I saw nothing that

686
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 6: indicated anything was going to be a problem, but just

687
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 6: out of careful consideration, I dumped the bottle of k

688
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 6: Seal in it.

689
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: I know if that vehicle is starting.

690
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 6: To experiencing any cooling system perocity or any cooling system

691
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 6: issues along the lines of head gifts, get or intake

692
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,720
Speaker 6: manifold or anything else, case Seal will.

693
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: Do the job right.

694
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,319
Speaker 6: And it's sort of that added insurance policy as I

695
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 6: sent him out on the road to travel eighteen hundred

696
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 6: miles round trip, to know that he's going to come

697
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 6: back without having to do major, major repairs to that

698
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 6: ten year old vehicle. Just another way of looking at it.

699
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 6: I'm not an ad in the car docket till the

700
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 6: next time. Good mechanics aren't expensive they're priceless.

701
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 9: See it

702
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 6: Shakes the busts down in the Windo
