1. Common Sense

Some of us find it cheaper and more doable to fix an old car we've had a long time then the huge expense of a newer car

[THEPAPASMURFTHEOG]

scottys hand gestures are on time.. if I ever go deaf, I'll still understand scotty from his hands moving around.. the world needs more honest mechanics like scotty..

[Roman-zqwp]

The older I get the more I appreciate Scotty and his takes about bad designs and corporate crusades of stupidity; an oracle of wisdom (and humor).

Scotty I bought a 2004 Toyota Camry v4 because of your videos. In the last 10 months all I’ve had done is an oil change and replace the air filter which is extremely cheap. The car was only $2500 still runs strong. I wouldn’t have done it without your advice. Words can’t tell you how grateful I really am for you you’ve saved me so much🤝

I currently own a 2000 Chevrolet Impala and it’s the best car I’ve ever owned. Has over 245, 000 miles on it still running like new with the original transmission and engine in it. It’s been in the family for 15+ years and I remember growing up in the back seat like it was yesterday. These cars are super underrated 10/10 for a reliable 4 door family sedan car!

For me, Lucas is THE brand. My 2015 Fusion started getting terrible milage all of a sudden. I tried a different put-in-tank fuel injector cleaner and… nothing. I put in Lucas Fuel injector cleaning and within two tanks, milage was back to normal. I’m a customer of Lucas for life.

Love the tips you always giving Scotty been using them since subscribing

[sassedmany]

I agree with Scotty's quote of the day: "Corporations are dead from the neck up"

[JT-SE-OHIO]

Lucas really helps. A quart of it got me another two years out of a transmission that would not shift until the engine was screaming. As soon as I put it in the car shifted like it should. I had a steering rack leaking on another car, put Lucas power steering fix in it and it fixed the leak. The oil stabilizer works great also, at least in the older V8 engines.

[Daddyme]

Scotty talking about GM products are absolutely hilarious

[TheLizardKing]

My 94 Celica has over 342, 000 mile on it. I tried the Lucas Slip fix the other day. Runs like a TOP!

[jamesgizasson]

I used to pop the lever in my Cherokee when the aw4 started slipping.

Transmissions work better when shifted manually... who knew? It's almost like they should just be manual to begin with! X3

[TTime]

If the transmission fluid is mostly red color and it shifts fine then it's generally ok to change the pan fluid and filter. I've done it on many cars with 150k+ miles without issues

Scotty you seem to be in bad weather where ever you go. Houston floods, Tennessee floods and wind, Rhode Island Nor’easter. Wow! You still make your videos and pass out free, honest information! Thank you!

[caayydenn]

I have just under 340K on my 1990 Pontiac Bonneville with original 3800 V6 and transmission. Regular fluid maintenance has let me keep this car almost 70K miles since I bought it. Scotty has taught me a lot. Love this old car❤❤❤

[Cali]

I would only beg to differ on one point: spending about $1, 600 on a rebuilt transmission on an old daily driver beater like this is a good deal. Why, because I look at the cost of ownership. Spending a couple of grand and getting 3 or 4 more years of reliable driving is just good common sense. It's a lot cheaper than plunking down $35k on a new Toyota or Honda!

[barnabyjones]

I had a high mileage Chevy 3500 van with a slipping transmission so I took the pan off, put a new filter in and put five quarts of Lucas in it. Still driving it 25, 000 miles later.

[patriot]

Those Impalas were good cars! Great in the snow with studded tires!

[markiangooley]

You can always name an Impala Vlad the Impala… a definite plus!
