as a street folk ask if i'm afraid to "pilot" a 1967 Piper PA18 Super Cub....NOPE, the way aircraft HAVE to be maintained vs a car is night and day. Its all MAINTENANCE and its required by the FAA

With cars being so expensive now, you cant afford not to maintain your vehicle.

[bbailey]

I really appreciate both of you. The honesty and wealth of knowledge is priceless .

[emilramirez]

Always glad to see the two Toyota masters of Youtube. It's true they don't make Lexus like they used to, they don't even come with leather anymore.

[BaconCruiser]

Today is a good day! I’m loving this combo!

[danw.]

Today we get to watch two of the best together... Thanks Guys....

Regarding people not maintaining cars now as much as they used to in the past, is it because modern cars are just so complex to even change oil themselves - whereas older cars were much easier to work on - DIY as well?

[briankalagher]

So awesome to see David at AMDs place! Loved all the knowledge they shared. Would also be amazing to see AMD visit Japan some day for a factory tour.

I plan on keeping my 2002 ES300 until "the wheels falls off". I change the synthetic oil every 5k miles and have replaced several 20 yr. old OEM parts (Starter, alternator, exhaust flex pipe, front brake calipers, struts) since i bought it from the original owner w 160k miles in April 2022. Currently has 185k miles with struts replaced 2 years ago it rides like new. Quality control, and build quality in the 4th gen ES is outstanding. Not one creak or rattle, sound insulation is amazing. Super quiet ride and smooth 1MZ engine. Every switch/button works, nothing is broken. Key is maintenance and great build quality. These engines and transmissions will last till 300k miles or more if properly maintained

This is probably the best car reviewer collab video on Youtube right now! I've been following these guys and watch their videos and it is always a joy to have sensible content on their channel and i believe they have helped a lot of people regarding car maintenance and also choosing which cars to buy. People will have tons of car knowledge with them. I wish to see AMD and David when i go to the US!

[syedali]

Two Legends meet. Best guidance given. I see a lot of "WISDOM" behind the guidance. I wish you both the best of luck & thank you so much!

[LAP]

💯 in agreement with ALL of the maintenance tips Ahmed and David have discussed.

I’ll add one of my own. If you drive a late model vehicle with All Wheel Drive (AWD). You need maintenance of the transfer case and rear differential and must use the correct fluid/oils.

My two favorite people, thank you for sharing, very informative! Mr. David welcome to Chicago.

Great to see David & AMD together. I enjoy both of their content.
