47
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: Let's go over and talk to Herman Hagerstown, Maryland ninety

48
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: five Chevy pickup and see what the story is here herman.

49
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor, sir, how can I help Herman?

50
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: Are you there? Herman online? One? Oh?

51
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 3: You know what?

52
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: Then let me go back and read there was a

53
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 1: story I wanted to cover. Anyway, while the board, while

54
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: the boys are figuring out the board, always have something

55
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: handy on radio. It's always good to have a noise.

56
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 1: Let me get through this recent article by a Meredith Cunningham.

57
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: She titled that the car you have right now could

58
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: be the last you'll ever own, and she talks about

59
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 1: it and recently, if you remember in the news, it

60
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 1: was a conversation about you with GM and some of

61
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: the other car companies trying to license software that would

62
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: prevent you from really owning the car. Well, Meredith wrote

63
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: an article that talks about if you just bought a

64
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: car and it lasts you for another twenty years. Twenty

65
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: five years, there's a good chance you'll never buy another.

66
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: Why pair emerging tech like Google self driving car with

67
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: transportation app uber and it's looking like no one needs

68
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: to own a car in about twenty five years. I

69
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: don't know, is that possible. Is it possible I'll never

70
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: need to own a car in twenty five years? James Cassio,

71
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 1: he's a futurist. I wonder what a futurist is. He's

72
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: a futurist and a senior fellow. I guess he looks

73
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: to the future. At the Institute for Ethics and Emerging

74
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 1: Technology said, it's going to be a cultural shift even

75
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: more than a technological shift, because we have this romantic

76
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: culture around cars, and we're going to look back at

77
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: that and the same kind of wistful way that we

78
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: look back at the relationship people had with horses. And

79
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: I think that's true. I really think a lot of

80
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: what the I'll say the older generation. If you're thirty five,

81
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: forty years or older, I think you're I think you

82
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: romanticize about cars. If you're fifty or sixty, my god,

83
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: that was your childhood. You can't imagine a place for

84
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: a time without that, and it'll be easier for the millennials,

85
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: as I call him, the kids that understand that love

86
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: texting and that are playing with all their electronic gadgets.

87
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: Thirty years and younger, they'll be the ones that'll be

88
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: you know, uberizing and Google self driving, and to them

89
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: cars are not that important. And it makes an interesting

90
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: statement this article is the car you have right now

91
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: the last one you'll ever own. It really makes you think,

92
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: because if cars last eight to ten years and you

93
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: just bought one today and you're in your sixties, you know,

94
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: maybe you won't need to drive after your seventy five anymore.

95
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: Maybe Uber is gonna come around and take you out,

96
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: and a self driving car is gonna take you out,

97
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: and you'll just get in the car and say, I

98
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: want to go eat, take me down to so and so.

99
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 1: It really makes a strong case that could it be possible.

100
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: I still think that some of the economic demand hasn't

101
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: been thought out and the impact of what this will

102
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: look like on the economy, and we're going to talk

103
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: about that a little bit later this hour, but right now,

104
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: let's really kick open the garage doors for real. Let's

105
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: go talk to Herman Hagerstown, Maryland. Herman. Are you there, sir, Yes, yes, sir?

106
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: What can I do for you? Welcome to the car doctor.

107
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: I'm ronnin Inia.

108
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: I got the ninety five Chevrolet pick up, ninety thousand

109
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 3: miles on it, and when I take it. This all

110
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 3: happened last last year fourteen to tell. But uh I

111
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 3: had it out in the cow passed to hayee you whatever,

112
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 3: and it wouldn't hardly. I couldn't hardly get back to

113
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 3: the house. You don't like it's running on three cylinders?

114
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: What is the sixth cylinder?

115
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 4: Eight?

116
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 3: Sick?

117
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: Okay?

118
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 3: And uh so anyway, it did it to me again.

119
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: But anyway, I made it back to the house on

120
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 3: three cylinders and I never got back in it for

121
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 3: a couple of days. So it run all right, and

122
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 3: I never thought the more of it. So a couple

123
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: of months later it did the same thing, except if

124
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: I was because it died. I got home, but uh,

125
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: I had to, I had to use the truck. In

126
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 3: the other words, they had the truck loaded right. So

127
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 3: I got to the mailbox and then I had I

128
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 3: just turned around and came back. And then I waited

129
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 3: a couple of hours and I got back in then

130
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 3: it run just just like a brand new one.

131
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 1: Okay, let me ask you this herman, any any herman?

132
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: Any warning lights on on the dashboard?

133
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 4: No?

134
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: All right, do you haven't? Do you have an adamizer bottle?

135
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: You can put water in a little a little spray bottle.

136
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 3: All right, yeah, I got one.

137
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: Okay, why don't you Why don't you put some Why

138
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: don't you put some water in that with the engine running?

139
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: If you're out on a farm, this is probably the

140
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: simplest way to do it. To put it onto a

141
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: fine missed and just try to gently miss the ignition,

142
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: the wires, the distributor cap area. Does the truck start

143
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: to miss and break down? Does the car? Does the

144
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: truck change the way it runs? It sounds like this

145
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: is an ignition related problem. The only thing I can

146
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: think of being out in fields is if there's any

147
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: sort of moisture or humidity and the distributor is not

148
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: venting properly, If there's a problem with the ignition system

149
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: in that it's absorbing moisture, or if the inside vent

150
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: of the distributor is clogged, it could cause a problem

151
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: and cause cross firing and misfiring and things like you're describing.

152
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: So I would have to tell you the most logical

153
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: place for my seed here would be to take a

154
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: very hard look at the ignition system. And the easiest

155
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: way to do that is with regard to the is

156
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: with regard to the ignition system itself, as regard to

Speaker 1: and do some driving in last year, and we brought

185
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,160

187
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,320

00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 4: classic cars out there, and one I think did ninety

212
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 4: eight miles an hour.

213
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, something might Now I could see the guy spend

214
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: the money just to take his Model T and open

215
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 1: it up to see what it was.

216
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 4: That kind of thing that would be me, And that's

217
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 4: the that's the whole thing about it. Yeah, you can

218

Speaker 4: you can just open it up and go right, you know,

219
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 4: and where else are you going to do that? Now?

220
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,160

Speaker 4: Yesterday was my eighty second first day.

223
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,320

00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: you know you don't You don't sound eighty two. But

225
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,959

226
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: you don't sound eighty one.

227
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

228
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: So is driving fast cars the secret to your youthfulness

229
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: and longevity?

230
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 4: No? Because this will only be the second time I've

231
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 4: ever done it, So I can't. I can't say. What

232
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: is I think? Actually moving to Idaho and living in

233
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 4: a nice, quiet, beautiful state.

234
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, where where'd you move? From?

235
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 4: Southern California? Huntington Beach?

236
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: So it was always car culture for you.

237
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, we had a lot of car culture going on

238
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 4: down there, and yeah, it was it was great. It

239
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 4: was fun and we've always had some decent, interesting cars.

240
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 4: You know.

241
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: Do you have grandchildren, Shirley.

242
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 4: I have three grandchildren and I have one great grandchild.

243
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: Do they do they talk to Grandma about cars and

244
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: what cars were?

245
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 3: Do you?

246
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: I mean, can you explain you were you lived through

247
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: the sixties? Can you explain this to them?

248
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 4: As well. Unfortunately, my one granddaughter lives in Portland, Oregon,

249
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 4: my oldest grandson who has my great grandson, live on Maui,

250
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 4: and my other granddaughter isn't at least bit interested in cars.

251
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,080
Speaker 1: Isn't that amazing? Isn't that amazing? And you know it's funny.

252
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 1: I just read an article I was talking about it

253
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: on air in the segment before I brought you on,

254
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: about how in the future, nobody's going to own a

255
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: car because nobody's gonna need to. It'll be Google self

256
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: driving cars, and it'll be Uber technology where they just

257
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: come and pick you up and take you where you

258
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: want to go, and you know, rent a car for

259
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: that moment, and cars will just become something that you

260
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: use on an as needed basis. Do you ever see

261
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: that day as a die hard car person? Do you

262
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: ever see that day when you know things like this

263
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: will just be looked back at as you know, these

264
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: people were crazy. What did they have to own a

265
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: car for to go this fast? Do you think that

266
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: could happen?

267
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 4: Well, it could probably happen the way things are are going.

268
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 4: But because I know they already have cars out well

269
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 4: that will drive themselves around, right, But I really don't

270
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 4: think it's going to be anytime soon, you know. I

271
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 4: think it'll be quite a few years down the road.

272
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 4: But it certainly could happen. So I think they'd be

273
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 4: missing a lot.

274
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you know, going back to the race, surely.

275
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: So you're gonna you're gonna run this race tomorrow.

276
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 4: No, it's a week from today, the twenty fifth.

277
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: Okay, And you're still driving the same corvette.

278
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 4: I'm driving, Yes, the two thousand and C five Corvette.

279
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: And I had my foot on the floor of last year,

280
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 4: so we had to do some tweaking to it to

281
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 4: get it to go a little faster this year. And

282
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 4: they put on headers and they put a I think

283
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 4: it's a larger air intake valve on it, okay. And

284
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 4: they put it on the Dino last Thursday and she

285
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 4: got up to one eighty one.

286
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: So are you going to take it to one eighty one?

287
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 4: You know that would involve a lot. You have weather.

288
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 4: We're racing at over five thousand feet up there in

289
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 4: Sunday Valley, and you have you have you know weather,

290
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 4: whether it's cold, whether it's too hot, which way the

291
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 4: wind's blowing, you know. But I'm I'm working on from

292
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 4: one seventy to one seventy five anyway.

293
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: And if you can do that, if you can do that,

294
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: then you'll be happy.

295
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 4: Oh I'd be thrilled.

296
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

297
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 4: Last year it was one sixty six point three, so

298
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 4: it would just be very exciting to hit one seventy

299
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 4: five if I can.

300
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: Hey, Shirley, can I ask you what was the first card?

301
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: What'd you learn to drive in?

302
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 4: Actually it was a forty six nineteen forty six old ninety.

303
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: Eight, a stick, right.

304
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 4: No, it was automatic. I've there's only been about two

305
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 4: or three times in my life that I've driven a stick.

306
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, you do you prefer automatic overstick? Is it just

307
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: easier for you?

308
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 4: It's easier for me hip whyse and leg wise and

309
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 4: that sort of thing, you know, Yeah, yeah, all that

310
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 4: clutching and and stuff. It's just hard on my on

311
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 4: my old body, you know.

312
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: You know, surely you may have an old body, but

313
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: you've got a young heart, sweetheart. And I'm really impressed.

314
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: I've listened. I've I've ventured out and uh, I've taken

315
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: the hot rot out on some on some abandoned roads,

316
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: we'll say it like that. And I've done one hundred

317
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: and five one hundred and ten, and it's it's a

318
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: little frightening at that's being a two door fifty five.

319
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: So I can't I can't imagine doing one hundred and

320
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: seventy in anything much less a late model Corvette. And uh,

321
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's got to be the thrill of

322
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: a lifetime. It really is. Is there is there a

323
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: website that if the listeners want to go and see

324
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: was there a YouTube video about this last year? Or

325
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:53,760
