*disclaimer: I repair and refinish leather for a living, these are my observations from experience in the field and my training.

stop using leather cleaners and conditioners, in fact to keep a car clean it’s best to clean it with an all purpose cleaner as you suggested (i.e. soapy water) and dry it. No sticky shit to trap dirt, so shine to hide when the most touched areas start to get oily and need cleaned, no weird odor. Just clean surfaces.

lucky guy buying when he did. What a perfect car, not so nice that you have to worry about the bumps and bruises that come from actually using it, but still pretty. I woulda kept the A/C though.

all of those are better than what they call music today...even if they suck they aren’t as bad.

guarantee he/she brake checks too. 

other than neighborhoods there shouldn’t be 25mph limits. My gf’s Forte would likely idle faster than 25mph.

Northern California is more Texas than California.

Up in the Air is criminally underrated.

awesome video of dudes knees and the back of his seat. Man up and video it or don’t at all.

Romo can be a bit wordy and excitable, over time I think he will hone his craft and ultimately have more control of those things. I don’t want him to change, just polish the delivery a bit. I think he’s a good fit with Nantz too.

Aikman is starting to sound very “get off my lawn” old. 

Sounds exactly like the Mid-Atlantic. Everyone in this region thinks they have something worth something. They have no concept of what the actual value of anything is, they just think it’s still worth 75% what they paid for it.

automotive colors are dictated by fashion, which is a global industry. So this doesn’t surprise me.

and it’s louder underneath...typically DI ticking is louder up top.

Most families drive what we call “midsize MPVs”, so 5+2 seaters like the Mazda 5, VW Touran, Ford Grand C-Max, Renault Grand Scenic, Citroën Grand C4 Picasso, Opel/Vauxhall Zafira, etc.

the worst part of it is every time I see it I think it’s a photo shopped joke...but it’s not. That’s how out of place the grille looks. A $100k luxury sedan should not have the look of something that has afterthought design elements stuck to the front of it. Nor should it’s actual photo be confused for shopped photos

If you are going to host content on a YouTube channel, maybe be interesting and know how to entertain. This guy is clumsily reaching for descriptive words from the jump...and it continued for the 5 minutes of it I could stand. Hard to believe that 800 thousand people follow this channel. Dude sucks.

do you have that lag when selecting reverse from drive? It’s like a 3-5 second lag and is obnoxious. Along with trying to do any speed changes abruptly at highway speeds and trying to recover....getting cut off is a higher level of annoying in it.

but if you choose a cargo version it’s basically comes with “stage 3 weight reduction”!

I drive one every day and think it’d be real dope if the transmission didn’t suck ass. Otherwise yeah, mine handles pretty well all things considered. When it was empty I could see how a little more power and proper gearing this thing could be a good time. I have a long wheel base 2014 xlt.
