You and ChrisFix are the best car DIY guys on YouTube. You get straight to the point on what needs to be done, and if there was something left out, ChrisFix definitely has a more in-depth yet direct video also.

Ive had my honda del sol s 1994 for almost a year and it has 43XXXX miles, ive been seeing your videos on maintaining a car. They've been really helpful saving me couple hundreds. Ill like to thank you for your hard work and pointers.

[johncastle]

I like it how you make it simple and get to the major points, as others have low communication skills .

Scotty makes buying used cars not as scary lol

I like you. Beginner mechanic myself, mostly self taught and youtube, things of the likes. Doing research into replacing the struts on my wife's 2002 Kia Rio sedan and you make it seem so easy! Thanks.

I've become a professional mechanic watching you Scotty your advice is great and saves me a lot of money 💰 thank you for making these great videos👍🏼 happy holidays

Scotty, your video has always been useful and straight to the point with easy step by step. I had fixed a few car parts using your channel. Thank you!

Is it weird that I'm 14 years old and I'm attached to these videos and I'm on a marathon of all of these videos by Scotty?

[soxnpatslyfe]

this dude is super goofy, really explains things well. I LOVE IT!!!!

[curmudgeonsadventures]

Wait a minute, I just watched a video where you said NOT to use cheap quick struts. Would a KYB be considered a cheap quick strut?

[El_Funky_Habibi]

Im calling you Uncle Scotty from now on because this video helped

[eliskucevic]

scotty used the certified German torque method. Good-en-tight.

I replaced all 4 struts on my 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP with the Monroe Quick Struts. The upside: It was relatively easy as you showed in the video; the downside: the ride was about the same as stock without the bounce-bounce-bounce after each bump in the road. Too bad Monroe don't offer the Quick Struts with their better struts.

Well make up your mind Scotty, you want us to get quick struts or not?! : P

[flyingfish]

2:59 Is a great point to make about hand tightening the bolts and then dropping it down with the tires on so it all sets.
