And um might 36 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: be in reference to some of the comments I'm about 37 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: to make, because I've got some things i want to 38 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: talk to you about. It has been a well, let's 39 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: just say, a a bone crushing week at the shop 40 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: and a lot of different things going on, a lot 41 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: of different conversations. I'm not sure do I want to 42 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: talk about Do I want to talk about green lights? 43 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: Did you ever notice? Now I realized this is a 44 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: nationally syndicated show and the internet and it's heart around 45 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: the world. But but green lights just seemed to mean 46 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: something different in New Jersey. I've noticed. I've just come 47 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: to the conclusion. I used to think a green light 48 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: meant go, but it doesn't. To me. A green light 49 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: means okay, the light changed. Now what do I want 50 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: to do? Do I want to keep texting? Do I 51 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: want to keep talking on the phone? Do I want 52 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: to keep looking outside the window to see what the 53 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: weather is gonna be? Like? I want to pick my nose? 54 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: What is it that I'm trying to do to accomplish? Oh, 55 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: maybe I'll accelerate and and and then they take off 56 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: and they go. A green light doesn't mean go anymore, 57 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: it really doesn't. And I could talk about that, but 58 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: I saved this. I want to talk about this. I've 59 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: got an email in front of me. Hey, Ron, I 60 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: began noticing the vibration bumping in my tires, so I 61 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: went to the place I always get my tires from. 62 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: This is from Kelley and Virginia. This just came in 63 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: this morning, so she's probably gonna be shocked to hear 64 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,839 Speaker 1: this and had them a look at them. By the way, 65 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: this place has been in business many years. I only 66 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: put about a year on these tires and they were 67 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: six years old eagle vision. These tires are starting to separate, 68 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: which caused the vibration bumping. Not wanting to buy new tires, 69 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: but I did anyway, and the vibration bumping has gone. 70 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: And by the way, they checked the old tires and 71 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: they were correctly balanced. My tire dealers said that tires 72 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: don't last long anymore, so I asked about the general 73 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: tire and he said his two least favorite tires here's 74 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: a Rocket scientist Our, Firestone and General. I didn't ask why. 75 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: He said the best was Michelan and since I don't 76 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: put many miles on the car, he offered a good, better, 77 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: and best tire, and I just went with a good tire. 78 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: And the name is Durall, which is made in Indonesia, 79 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: so I didn't see getting the very best since maybe 80 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: replacing them in a few years. What are your thoughts? 81 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: You can read this on the show. If you're like, 82 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: you can email me. I listen to you sure every 83 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: chance I get. Thanks Kelly from Virginia. UM, So I 84 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: got a lot of thoughts here, Kelly, and you know, 85 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: it's like, wow, is the first one? UM? First of all, 86 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: about two weeks ago and I talked about this on 87 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: air UM that remember I went to the liability class. 88 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: We were talking about liability of parts and what happens 89 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: when a part fails and you know where the issues are. 90 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: And you can't sue China, I'm pretty sure. But unless Durall, 91 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: which I think was a cigarette back in the seventies, UM, 92 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: I think Durrell, unless they have headquarters here in the 93 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: United States, you can't sue Indonesia either. So one of 94 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: the things that I want to point out is be 95 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: careful of the tires you buy. And this is what 96 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: st have brought this to the highlight in the forefront here. 97 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: You've got to really be careful with Chinese tires, Indonesia tire, 98 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: Southeast Asia offshore tires. Are they built in the same standard, 99 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: what's the success rate? I'm not talking about Handcook Handcook's 100 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: Korean tire, but they've got headquarters here in the US, 101 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: all right, And I'm not having I'm not gonna have 102 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: the debate about General Firestone Michelin Handcook good Year. That's 103 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: not what this is about. You just bought offshore tires 104 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: from a manufacturer that I'm betting this tire place has 105 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 1: a direct relationship with and they're buying them by the boatload, 106 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: bus load, car load, et cetera. And they're getting them 107 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: really dirt cheap. But here's the catch. Dirt cheap is 108 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: dirt cheap. You buy something cheap, you get what you buy. 109 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: And my concern is, I have two concerns, well three. 110 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: One is you put them on your car and now 111 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna go out on the interstate and drive at 112 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: fifty to sixty. The second is I might be in 113 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: the car next to you at fifty to sixty. And 114 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: the third is when you have a problem with those tires, 115 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: who are you gonna sue? You're not gonna sit well, 116 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna sue the tire guy, I guess, because if 117 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: he hasn't if if they have no headquarters here in 118 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: the US. With the liability class from two weeks ago, 119 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: taught me was the insurance and the lawyers follow the money, 120 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: so they come after the guy that seems to have 121 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: the most that's the most accessible. I'm pretty sure, nobody's 122 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: ever sued Indonesia and had any success at it. But 123 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: the problem here becomes your overall safety. What do I think. 124 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: I think you brought the wrong tires. I don't care 125 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: how cheap they were. I don't care the fact that 126 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: you're going miles a year. What your old tire has failed. 127 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: From from my seat here, from your description of your email, 128 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: it sounds like they dry rotted and they cracked out 129 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: and it was a matter of just failure from age. 130 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: Anything's going to do that. But you know, what's your 131 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: safety worth over the next four or five years? And 132 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: that's my concern. And I don't mean to sound like 133 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: I'm scaring you, and I hope I'm not. I'm just 134 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: trying to make every one of you, each and every 135 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: one of you, each and every listener, that you've got 136 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: to be careful where you pick your parts from, because 137 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: the offshore manufacturing problem is really a problem. There's a 138 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: reason that that seventy five dollar tire, a hundred dollar 139 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: tire is sold here in the States for ten bucks, 140 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: because I hear that's the way the game works. I 141 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: hear that it's it's a five to ten dollar tire, 142 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: and it's sold here, and you know the reason is 143 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: because they're cheap and they don't hold up. And yeah, 144 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: maybe you'll get the one that goes a little bit 145 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: of a distance, But how long have a distance can 146 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: it actually go? I just I would never do it, 147 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: all right, And I'd like to know his rationale and 148 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: why he don't like General. General has got some of 149 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: the highest reviews and some of the highest ratings and 150 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: rankings right now in the tire world. What is it 151 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: that this guy is doing? If you want my opinion, 152 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: it sounds like he had a large stock of the 153 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: rail tires and he sold what he had wanted to 154 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: help get rid of that and and move his day 155 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: along because he's trying to make a number. Just just 156 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: my way of thinking, Kelly. I don't care how many 157 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: years they've been in business. Believe me, if they've been 158 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: in business a long time, Um, the guy that started 159 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: it is probably not around. Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. 160 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: But just because the business has been there forever doesn't 161 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: mean it's as good as it once was. I can 162 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: talk about a whole lot of companies that kind of 163 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: fell by the wayside, that are no longer what they 164 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: once were. When the founders put them together and had 165 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: their vision of what the future should look like. Just 166 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: my way of looking at it. Hello and welcome to 167 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: the car doctor. Let's turn around to a cheery or note. 168 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: Hello and welcome to the car doctor. Zero nine zero zero. 169 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you also this hour. Maybe 170 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna do a survey for every call, for every 171 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: caller that calls in UM. I had a visit this 172 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: week from a company that makes a chat. You know 173 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: what chat is. It's about this big and it plungs, 174 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: it plugs into the O B D two connector. So 175 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: here's my question to you as you calling this week, 176 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: and if you participate in this wealth I think I 177 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: wanted to give away. Should we give away some T 178 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: shirts today? Let's see. I don't know what sizes we 179 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: have left because the T shirt pile has gone has 180 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: gone down. But maybe we'll do a T shirt giveaway 181 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: this week. Let's see how I feel after we come 182 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: back from the break. But here's my question. If if 183 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,599 Speaker 1: you could buy this little dongle, this little chot s 184 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: key and plug it into your O B D two 185 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: port and you know we're the scantil plugs in and 186 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: It would tell you when the check engine light comes on. 187 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: It would send you an email, tell you what the 188 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: fault code is, what the description is. It will also 189 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: warn you when the battery is running low and the 190 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: charging system is not working properly, things like that. It'll 191 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: give you a general vehicle health statement, UM, it would 192 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,119 Speaker 1: tell you when the vehicle is due for service maintenance. 193 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: And it would do all this via email. And here's 194 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: the best part. Here's the part that kind of got 195 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: my attention. Would you, as a parent, I want to 196 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: utilize this because you could send your kids to college 197 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: with this device, and when the check engine light went 198 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 1: on in Pittsburgh and you're back in New Jersey, or 199 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: you're in California and they're in they're in Florida, when 200 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: the check engine light goes on in their car twenty 201 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: hours away, you get the email as well, so you 202 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: can call your kid up and say, hey, the check 203 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: engine lights on.

You know? And 245 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: I did, and I opened it up, and there was 246 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: a clown face pressed up against the glas Because I 247 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: saw my reflection. It was really scary. So let's get 248 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: over and talk to uh, let's go and talk to 249 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: Mike in Stanton, Virginia, and let's see what's going on here, Mike, 250 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor, sir, how are you? I'm gone? 251 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: Thank you? What's going on? You're welcome? What's going on? 252 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: We have a two thousand seven Toyota Highlander my wife drives. 253 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 1: We bought it is is actually a dealer car that 254 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: we bought with about twenty thousand miles on it and 255 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: has any thousand now and I don't know if I 256 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: should do anything about servicing the transmission at this point. 257 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I ever did. At We had 258 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: some pretty heavy maintenance done to it, but I can't 259 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: find the receipt through find out whether I actually did 260 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: the transmission then or not. You know, do you think 261 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: they did the trans service? I mean it would have 262 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 1: been a drain and fill. It wouldn't have been super expensive. 263 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: This is this is type four. This is the older 264 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: style transfluent. Uh you know, um, I guess the question 265 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: sort of also comes back to what color is the fluid? Now? What? 266 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: What does it look like? Is it it's got to 267 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: be browned by now? Yeah, Well, we have the well 268 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 1: change to a change place and they never mentioned that 269 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: needs changing or that it looks bad. Well, let me 270 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: ask the question this way if if you haven't changed 271 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: trans fluid and listen, I'm I'm one of those guys 272 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: that I think, I think you that you, the vehicle owner, 273 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: have as much stake and taken care of it as 274 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: the mechanic. I mean, I think it's a two way conversation, 275 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: and I think the mechanic is liable in the sense 276 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: that when that car comes in for service at certain mileages, 277 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: I think he's got to speak up and say, hey, 278 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: here's here's manufacturers recommended maintenance. Not here's what I feel 279 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: like selling you because I gotta buy a new piece 280 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: of lawn furniture. But you know, here's here's what the 281 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: manufacturer calls for it such and such a mileage. That's 282 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: why they call it manufacturer recommended. So if you haven't 283 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: done the trans service yet, maybe what else haven't you done? 284 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: And I would I would tell you it's time to 285 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: take it into a mechanic for a review at this 286 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: mileage and put together some kind of a list of 287 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: best recommended services that may not have been done that 288 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: are due. You know, because off the top of my 289 00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: head at twenty eight thousand miles, you reduced park plugs. Okay, 290 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: that's good. Um, cool, cool and service, okay, timing belt, 291 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: timing belt, have not done timing belt, the cars didn't 292 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: even if it had a timing belt. Yeah. Uh, this 293 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: is a four cylinder or six six cylinder in two 294 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: thousand seven? Has it has a belt? There's a belt motor, 295 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: all right? The chains we're in two thousand eight. Um, 296 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: this should be a three three right, a three point 297 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: three leader, yes, yeah, that should be a belt motor. 298 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: So that's there. Obviously you do it. You do a belt, 299 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: You're gonna do a belt of water pump and a thermostat. Alright, 300 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: good solid maintenance ten years old. You know. Obviously the 301 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: cool one has been done, you know. And then yeah, 302 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I guess air filter, cabin filter, 303 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: those things. But then you know, if the trans has 304 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: ever been done, and then is this a four wheel 305 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: driver or front wheel drive? Mic? It's four okay, So 306 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: then is a transfer case involved here that's got gear 307 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: oil in it. There's a weird differential that's got gear 308 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: oil in it. You know, Uh, servicing that now is 309 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: a good time, you know. So the fact that it 310 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: hasn't been done doesn't disqualify you from having to do it. 311 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: It's a matter of you know, when do you want 312 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: to do it? Uh, you know, before it becomes a 313 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: bigger problem. Up until about ninety thousand miles, we had 314 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: everything done at the dealer and did what they told 315 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: us we needed to do. I'm betting it was done. 316 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm betting it was done. But then from that point 317 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: on we've been going to an oil change place and 318 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: they haven't recommended anything except you know, the oil and 319 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: filter in the cabin and the air filters. Can I 320 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: can do that automatically? Can I ask you why you 321 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: stopped going to the dealing Mike time was as as 322 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: big an issue as anything else. The dealer took over 323 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: an hour to do an oil change in the neial 324 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: change place? Does it in ten minutes? But then what 325 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 1: about the other what about the other service and maintenance? 326 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: The Uh? I have another mechanic that does breaks and 327 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: fair point my tires and all right, and and I'm 328 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: okay with that. Listen. You know, I just wanted to 329 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: know what the disconnect was that took you out of 330 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: the dealership. And you know, it's a it's a it's 331 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: a it's a personal opinion, it's a personal preference. I 332 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: get that. Here's here's here's my way of thinking. All right, um, 333 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: and again, just just my opinion that when a car 334 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: gets older. When a car gets older, it's a lot 335 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 1: like a person. I don't want to start taking them 336 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: to individual places and bouncing around and getting I want, 337 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: I want. It's more critical to have one person working 338 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: on it at the time or one person overseeing it 339 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: at the time when it's older than it is when 340 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: it's younger. What what I notice a lot of is 341 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: people will stay with a new card dealer until the 342 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: sixth se mile mark, and then all of a sudden say, hey, 343 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 1: you know what, it's it's time to move on because 344 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: it's getting too expensive to take care of this old car. 345 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: So they put a lot of money into the car 346 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: for maintenance, or they'll put normal maintenance in it up 347 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: for the first, you know, seventy eight miles, and then 348 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: all of a sudden it's let's And I get that 349 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: it's a time thing, and I get that it's you know, 350 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: that's an issue, but I'm just trying to make a position, 351 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: just the thought that maybe when it's older, you want 352 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: to kind of hang onto it and um, you know, 353 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 1: just just just keep continue to take proper care of it. Hey, Mike, 354 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: don't go away. I want to come back. I want 355 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: to talk about the poll and uh, let's give you 356 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: a T shirt. Let's do that. I'm gonna make a 357 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: worthwhile for you to hang onto the line. I'm not 358 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: any in the car Doctor. I'm coming right back. The 359 00:18:50,160 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: Zombies for heavy song. The guests included Roninanian Recula and 360 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 1: his song. Hey, welcome back. While I'm meeting the car 361 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: Doctor here, we're talking to Mike and Stanton Virginia. Mike, 362 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 1: you're still there, sir, Thanks for holding on. I appreciate 363 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 1: you taking the time. So let me get just back 364 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: up a second. Did that answer your question about the 365 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: Trenty or did I go off on a tangent on break. 366 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: My wife was was listening. She actually had the receipt. 367 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: I didn't have it in my records. We did have 368 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: transmission service, timing, belt um fuel injection service, and it's 369 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: all typical good stuff. And that's good, good, good good. 370 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: So now it's time at a d get the trans 371 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: changed again. It's not an expensive process. It's a drain 372 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: and fill. You know you're not gonna really drop the pan. 373 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: It's a it's a breast screen, so there's not much 374 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: to see in there. And and doing that that trans 375 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: is typically you know, you service those trans is, they'll 376 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: go a hundred and sixty thousand miles, they'll they'll run 377 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: a good long time. Um, so that's to your advantage. 378 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: So let me ask you a question. You heard my 379 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: opening conversation. Would you would you spend twenty five dollars 380 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: a year? Two? You know, if you had a little 381 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: choky in New Jersey. It's a thing about this big, 382 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: like the size way pack of cigarettes, and it it 383 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: plugged into the O B D two port under the 384 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 1: dashboard where they connect the scan tool, and it's it's 385 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: pretty much out of the way. You wouldn't see it, 386 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: you wouldn't even know it's there. Would you spend twenty 387 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: five dollars a year? If that device would tell you 388 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: that why the check engine light was on, If it 389 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,479 Speaker 1: would tell you the check engine lights about to come on, 390 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: so it would give you pending information. So let's say 391 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 1: you're leaving on vacation Friday, you start the car up Thursday, 392 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 1: it would tell you, Hey, you're about to get a 393 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: fault coat in this area. Okay, Um, it would it 394 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 1: would give you the ability to tell you, hey, Mike, 395 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: you due for an oil change, you're due for service, 396 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: your battery is marginal. It would give you a general 397 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: health check of the vehicle. If somebody else had your 398 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: vehicle far away from home, it would email, It would 399 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: let them know and let you know that the vehicle 400 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: had a problem. Is that worth five dollars a year 401 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: to you? It would be? He said, I think you 402 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: said per vehicle, right, per vehicle. Um particularly, you know, 403 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: our children have grown and in a way now, but 404 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,479 Speaker 1: when they were in school, that definitely would have been 405 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: something that I would have wanted on their vehicle. Now 406 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: that we're a little bit older and don't pay attention 407 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: to things like that as close as we used to, 408 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: it would be really handy to have that kind of 409 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: report available, all right, because we're gonna take this show. 410 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give this. I'm gonna give this show to 411 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: these manufacturers and uh, you know, it's it seems that 412 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: this is the way the industry is going. On a 413 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: couple of fronts, a bunch of a bunch of people 414 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: are starting to talk about this and do this, And uh, 415 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: I said, you know what, I'll do a little on 416 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: air research. I'll do something very impromptu, Mike, I appreciate 417 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: your input. Stay on the line. Tom's gonna send you 418 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: a T shirt. He's gonna talk to you about that. 419 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: Pick a size. Pick two sizes because we're not sure. 420 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure we've got all the sizes covered in 421 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,959 Speaker 1: some kind of depth. But it's the end of the season. 422 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 1: We're getting ready. We're moving out these T shirts because 423 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna be coming up with a new T shirt 424 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: for next spring. So stay on the line. I appreciate 425 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: your patients. I appreciate your input. Tom. We'll get your information. 426 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: Let's go and talk to Alan Maryland. Al, welcome to 427 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: the Car Doctor. So you had some comments about tires. Yeah, Ron, First, 428 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: thanks so much for your show. It's always informative, and 429 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: not only do you have expertise, but you've got a 430 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: great way of dealing with callers. It's a pleasure listening 431 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: to your show. Thank you very much for uh. I 432 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: heard you your monologue about the offshore tires, and I 433 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: had a pretty sorry experience, which I thought you and 434 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: your listeners might might find instructive. I bought four tires 435 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: um and I'll give you the brand name it's Nan 436 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: Kang made in Taiwan. Brought them from a local tire dealer, 437 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: and I've dealt with them for many many years. Uh, 438 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,719 Speaker 1: they have their house brands. I've used them, haven't had 439 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: a problem. After I bought these four tires, about six 440 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: months later, I had one of them start to go 441 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: flat when I was on the road, and it eventually failed. 442 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: By the time I could get to a place where 443 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: I could change it, the tire was pretty well shoot up, 444 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: and I just thought maybe I ran over something, you know, 445 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: bed luck. I went and bought another one, so now 446 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: altogether I had five of these tires. About a year ago, 447 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: I was rotating the tires and I noticed that the 448 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: tire had a bulge, not on the sidewall, but on 449 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: the actual tread. You know, the tread. You know, you 450 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: got maybe four or five grooves across the tread. Between 451 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: two of the grooves, the tire had bulged. So one 452 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: side of the tire you know, again they're talking about 453 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: the tread now, not the sidewall. One side was flat, 454 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: the other side had this bulge in one spot. I 455 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: didn't realize how disastrous that could have been. I kept 456 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: on driving. It kept on watching it. I put the 457 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: tire on the right rear, and all of a sudden, 458 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: one day I'm driving along and I hear this pop 459 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: and it sounds like, you know, a shotgun went off. 460 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: I pull over to the side and road. The tire 461 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: is losing the air. I get it off. The tire. 462 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: The tire had ruptured, the rubber was all twisted, the 463 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: metal inside the tire, the steel belt in the words 464 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: had come through the tread, and the tire was was 465 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 1: all warped. Uh So obviously I got it off. Put 466 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: another tire different, you know, not the same brand. About 467 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: a month ago, I was driving and all of a sudden, 468 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: I started to feel some vibration in the steering wheel. 469 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 1: Looked at the tires. Sure enough, got a bulge again 470 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: in the tread. So I took it off. I wonder, 471 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 1: you know, and I have to wonder, does anybody regulate 472 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: you know, off shore tis like that? You know this? 473 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: And of course I bought these tires four or five 474 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: years ago, so I can't go back and complain to anybody. 475 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: But two out of five tires failed, and maybe three 476 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 1: out of five tires failed. The first one. I can't 477 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: stay for sure because the tire was pretty too up 478 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: by the time I stopped. But the second one, the 479 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: steel belts apparently are not made sufficiently well and after 480 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: a while they apparently rupture, and ultimately you keep driving it, 481 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: it punctures it right through the right through the tread. Uh. Now, 482 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 1: if you go, you know, you can go to Nan 483 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: King's website and you know it's made in Taiwan. They 484 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: talk about getting certifications from Forward. You know, they sound 485 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: like the greatest thing since can beer. Yeah, but I 486 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: gotta tell you, you know, two out of five, maybe 487 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: three out of five tires failing in several years doesn't 488 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: sound like the right answer to me. And I've got 489 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 1: to tell you, forty three years of selling tires, being 490 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: in the business like I am, I could count on 491 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: one hand, one hand, the number of tires I've seen 492 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: that actually went bad. I think I've probably seen three 493 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: bad tires with manufacturing defects over a forty three year span. 494 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: It just doesn't It just doesn't happen. Yeah, I had 495 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: two out of five made three out of five within 496 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: a span of like a year and a half. And 497 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 1: and the sad part is, Okay, what I find is 498 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: the uneducated driver, the person that just thinks, well round 499 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: black holes there, it's good for me. They're not doing 500 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: the research that person is. They're a danger because they're 501 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: putting their putting cheap tires on the vehicle and they're 502 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: riding on the same road as you and me. Yeah, well, 503 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 1: I'll tell you to make it even worse. You go 504 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: to their website and they sound like they're wonderful only 505 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 1: certifications from floor and everything sounds wonderful, not a little 506 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: bit suspicious. The last certification they talk about is in 507 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. Well you know that was eight 508 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: years ago. Anything since um And the other problem is 509 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: that the place I bought him from is a reputable place. 510 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 1: They're a local tire dealer. I've had good dealings with them, 511 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: but man, you know, these these were just the bummer 512 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know whether I'm want to go back 513 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,719 Speaker 1: there or not. And I think I think, you know, 514 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: to sum it up out, it really comes back to 515 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 1: you've got to look at where you're buying your parts, 516 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: whether it be tires or parts or whatever from, and 517 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: what's the recourse If that place isn't around, how will 518 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: you then proceed and who will you then go after 519 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: you know, we look at parts. I'll buy motorcraft break pads, 520 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: all right. I take a motorcraft breakpad part off the shelf. 521 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: It says made in China, motorcraft, legitimate motorcraft, right from 522 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: Ford Motor Company. And then I'll take you know, brand 523 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: X y Z. I'll go to the parts house and 524 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: I'll look at it in the white box and it 525 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: says made in China. I guarantee you they're not made 526 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: in the same warehouse. There's just no way. Uh. You 527 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,719 Speaker 1: know that that set of motorcraft pads cost fifty dollars. 528 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: That set of you know brand X pads cost three dollars. 529 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: And you know, we have dumbed down society. Remember everybody, 530 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,360 Speaker 1: I told you two weeks ago this is gonna become 531 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: a political show. We've dumbed down society to the point 532 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: that cheap parts, cheap tires, don't care where they come from. 533 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: Nobody's got any more liability, And all of a sudden, 534 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: we're all standing around pointing our fingers at everybody and 535 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: there it's tearing the country apart. And that's exactly what's 536 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: going on. From an automotive perspective. You go out and 537 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: they break and you don't know where the heck they 538 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: came from their roll rounds and shining. You know. I'll 539 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: stay on the line. I want to come back. I 540 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: want to ask you the poll question because I think 541 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: you've got some good input here.

Now, you know, 560 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: we were talking about Chinese tires, and I want to 561 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: sum up the conversation this way. And this is something 562 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: I learned a long time ago. When they make a tire, 563 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: when General designs a tired, General just came out with 564 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: their Grabber X three. All right, it's it's it's a 565 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: really great off road on road, you know, all terrain 566 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: kind of tire. It took years of development and engineering 567 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: and prototypes and development, and you know, it wasn't something 568 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: they woke up one day and said, let's make a tire. 569 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: Look like this. Every knob, every every site, every piece 570 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: of construction in that tire has an absolute purpose. One 571 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: of the things I learned years ago was you buy 572 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: that General from a General dealer, and you know it's 573 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: it's got it's got some reputation and durability and responsibility 574 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: behind it. Okay, you buy that, you buy a General copycat. 575 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: If somebody had a copycat of that grabb Or X three, 576 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: which they don't I'm not saying they do. Or you 577 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: buy something from me, you have to watch. Even like 578 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: buying from some of the big name brand box stores, 579 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: they start selling private label, name brand tires, but but 580 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: the the general dealers won't let them do that. So 581 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: they'll change something in that tire. They'll make them change 582 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: the site or the position of the knob, or the 583 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: way the white letters. Something is different and it's not 584 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: the same tire. That's an issue. If that's an issue 585 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: buying something from China that has no you know, no 586 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: legitimacy in terms of follow through her design, you gotta 587 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: be out of your mind, um, you know, And that's 588 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: an issue. So but anyway, I just wanted to touch on. 589 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: You know, you go to the website and you see 590 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: these Ford certifications that they got and so forth, because 591 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: well that's because until until Ford jumps up there and says, no, 592 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: that's not true, you believe it because you know, part 593 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: of being American today as you believe everything, and you 594 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: know part of part listen, and I say this in 595 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: all series and that's a whole noother I told you 596 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,479 Speaker 1: this is gonna become a political show. Part of our 597 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: part of our responsibility as American citizens for those of 598 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: us that are left all right, is we've got a 599 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 1: question everything. And that's that's part of what we're supposed 600 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: to do. Anyway, the chats the thing that ugs into 601 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: the O B D two scan tool port five dollars 602 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: a year tells you what the check engine lights on 603 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: four tells you when it's about the set of fault 604 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: code tells you what the code description is. Allows you 605 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: to keep track of a vehicle that's away from home, 606 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: So if your kid has it away in school, it'll 607 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: send you an email.

So 644 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: there's a family radio station. There's a lot of things 645 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: I could say to that, but I won't. Um, let's uh, 646 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: let's close things out this hour, just a couple of 647 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: less some closing thoughts. You know, I write myself notes 648 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 1: during the course of the week when um, I'm in 649 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: the shop and I'm trying to figure out I think 650 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: I know what I was thinking here. I wrote a note, 651 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: you know, real quick, during the course of the day 652 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,479 Speaker 1: and the heat of the battle, charging what it's worth 653 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: to fix the car and with a repair shop be 654 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: better off with less customers. And I think what my 655 00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: thought process was that I'm noticing a huge trend of 656 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: the vehicle getting obviously more difficult to repair. But just 657 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: the converse here, I'll explain it like this. A woman 658 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: calls up, thought that it was a woman. Was just 659 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: was a woman customer and her car had a low 660 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: coolant light on? And can I just come by and 661 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: have you checked the coolant level? Yeah, sure, no problem. 662 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: And the next day she called and said I'm gonna 663 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: come by and I said, okay. By the way, I 664 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: didn't get she had never been here before. What what 665 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: kind of car is it? And it was a ten 666 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: year old Volvo. Okay, well that takes special coolant and 667 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: I've got to get some. She says, yeah, well maybe 668 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,439 Speaker 1: it doesn't need cooling because the light's not on now. 669 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: And I said, well, but I thought she's no. I'd 670 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,400 Speaker 1: start the car cold, the light would come on and 671 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: then it goes out, and I'm not really sure what's 672 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 1: going on. Oh see you need a diagnosis. Oh I do, Well, yeah, 673 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: where the coolant go? Well doesn't it just evaporate? No, 674 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: you know it leaks, But to lose coolant like that, 675 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: and then what if it's a censor. I don't think 676 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: the average consumer understands just what exactly goes into a car. 677 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: More time less cars to work on. I'm on an 678 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,280 Speaker 1: any in the car doctor, Good mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. 679 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: See you next hour by
