Did anyone else click the video and see the 22 minute length and back out like me?

What’s worse is that in my Midwest town, during the winter when’s there’s heavy snowfall, the make parking on odd side the of the street illegal the first night and the. Even the following. If you don’t move your car the nice plow man goes around your car and makes a nice ice/snow about hood height around your car.
Dude that still comes out to like 15-20x the average cost per mile of ownership. Not arguing reliability of any automaker. Just arguing that 50k over even forty years is a lot of dough for any car of any make. ASE master mechanic at a dealership where we print out people’s cost per mile of owning/ repairing the…
I live in live in Lincoln Ne, population around 300k. Not big by many standards. There is a couple places that custom make driveshafts here. I once put a 76 Chevy 3/4 ton axle under my 96 Tahoe simply because I did the same thing as this guy but involved mud instead of pavement and suddenly hooking up. Anyways they…
If you can drive any trike off road you can drive just about anything off-road. Had one of those until I broke the front tire off trying to jump it. You know how people say “when you’re young you’re dumb and feel Invincble”, yeah I totally get that now. I just wish all the shroud shit I did was in the “smartphone” era…
I grew up playing racing games, I can attest to this. Also. Grew up on an acreage with a 4wheeler and go kart. I spent every moment I could I those. So many times pushing my luck and getting tossed from quad. I learned real quick the usefulness of the skills displayed in the video. And of course how to purposefully do…
Well that WAS murder, not getting caught smoking weed in your car on interstate. Which I think the latter is more of the caliber of crimes Cris Carter is referring to.
Same principle**
I'm sure as I have not seen every car on earth. Although I've never seen one in person that fits your criteria. I have seen them with an entirety separate caliper just for parking brake. Same prince as the screw out piston style but standalone.
My favorite quote from an instructor when learning electrical diagnostic skills was this. “Electricity is lazy, it only works as hard as it has to”.
Just posted a tip about using a piece of plastic like parts bag. Same principle, amazing trick.
It’s how a disc brake without an internal drum can still have a parking brake. For safety concerns the parking brake needs to be entirely mechanical. A slow leak in the hydraulic brake lines and you’d eventually lose braking force. The reason the screw in is so that they can be screwed out for parking/emergency brake…
Work at a dealership. A lot of newer cars with rear disc brakes are going to that design. It mainly used for ability to apply braking force for the parking brake. I've seen some iteration of it in just about every make now.
This Is a Pretty handy and simple one. If the nut you need to install is inaccessible to start it with your fingers, I take a piece of plastic bag and hold it over my socket then wedge the nut into it. The thinking here is that this makes it so the nut can’t fall out. But once installed you can easily pull your socket…
I laughed pretty hard at the any fluid drops in your mouth one. Just happened to me last night.
Did he use a digital tire pressure gauge?
I know the motorcyclist could’ve probably gone faster, but is anyone else slightly impressed that the Ford Fusion was even able to keep up let alone gain on him? I mean there were at least two times the car was almost completely stopped with the bike getting by while rolling and yet that damn fusion just appears next…
Worked as a ford tech for several years. Service manger was big about denying warranty repair. Cold air intakes were one he like to abuse.
I didn’t realize the windshield/roof/rear glass are one continuous piece. I'd be scared of the replacement cost on that. Obviously I'd love to have to it. But dear god would I cringe to sound of rock hitting the windshield.
I being a mechanic, would assume the clutch was dumped with far to much brake applied causing the clutch to slip and not the tire. Then while continuing to heat the clutch up with all that friction it failed. With rpm it was at its no surprise it exploded and threw shrapnel.
