One of the biggest problems faced by today's mechanics is not simply the issue of purchasing an annual subscription for each manufacturer of vehicle (which is a considerable expense if there is insufficient use of the subscription for that year,) it is also the shameless robbery of the TOOL MANUFACTURERS who only allow a subscription for a number of years BEFORE THE TOOL IS OBSOLETE and IS NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCEPT UPDATES.

The main problem with having an oil place change the oil is that you drive in , they pull the car into a bay and drop the plug. As soon as it slows down, they replace the plug and dump in the new oil and filter leaving at least a quart of the old oil in the crankcase. Doing it yourself you leave it overnight then replace it.

@miguelberrios19 3 месяца назад

And you run the risk of them doing it wrong, like using gear oil instead of engine oil. And another thing which is very common is that they leave the old filter. Happened to me once.

@northdakotaham1752 3 месяца назад

The guys working at those places always crank the new filter down so tight you have to literally destroy it to get it back off again the next oil change. No idea what you are getting for an oil filter or oil.

Plus my ranger has way better reliability and longevity than a new one because ford used to make their vehicles right, and I can literally find anything part wise for it because they made almost every part interchangeable with most models, can a brand new f150 do that? No what you get is a 56k truck that has 14 recalls now, they may not cost anything but most people can’t afford the time to mess with those, at least 2 months worth of dealership work, if I ever replace my ranger I’m getting a Tacoma

Hi, Scotty. I am from Canada. I have always enjoyed your topics. Anyways , our governments are trying to get us to buy EV's, but what they are not telling us, is that, besides being very expensive, the replacement of the battery can go as high as $ 20,000 dollars. Also , the cars are heavier and the tires wear out faster and these cars are bad for the roads. The lithium for these batteries is hard to mine and a lot of it is under the ocean floor. So any reduction in emissions by buying a EV , is gone. Mining this will cause more pollution . There is no advantage in EV's.

" a diet fast food chain" says Scotty then laughs at the prospect. When I was a kid in 1050's Australia, there were virtually no fat kids or adults except those with a medical condition. What were the differences from today? Very limited fast food availablity (mum made everything we ate), no TV to lounge around in front of while stuffing your face and getting no exercise and the relatively high cost of food back then. It's too easy to become fat today. We have to make societal changes over a long period before obesity is diminished. What say you?

I've bought Fords for years, beginning with my 1966 Mustang. My last new car was a 2014 Ford Fusion ... the best car I've ever owned. It had over 332,000 miles and was still running flawlessly when I sold it recently. Unfortunately, it looks like Ford has abandoned making quality gas-powered cars anymore, and are instead focused on extremely expensive trucks and SUVs with much poorer quality. Instead, I finally gave up on Ford and bought an old low mileage well-maintained 2013 Lexus ES 300h. It's a pleasure to drive, and will probably be around a lot longer than the junk being produced today.

My car was being a little sluggish so I took it to my usual place to get the oil changed again after 2.6k miles(I change it every 4k). I was told that it was 1 quart low and that was after I added a quart. They also took 10 min between two guys to change my cabin air filter and another 3 min to put the cover back on. The only thing they did right was clean my windows which is also policy according to them. I told my wife there is a reason why I go to the same oil change place, the same tire shop, and the same mechanic since 20 (now 34) even though I moved and live 50 min away from them.

True but why does Subaru make the CVT plug extremely easy to see and the oil plug has a door on the plastic under cover, you have to open to see? The CVT plug should be hidden and not look like an oil plug. IMO it is subaru asking for DIY and quick change shops to screw up.

@mrgarrison3516 3 месяца назад

The Subarus CVT drain plug is in the middle/center of the car & the oil drain is at the front of the car (& my Subaru doesn't have a plastic cover hiding the drain plug). It's not hard to tell what is what

Not too long ago Ford made terrible cars if you look at consumer reports Fords had some of the worst ratings and my parents told me many stories about Fords not making it to 100k miles. Given American companies obsession with making things as cheaply as possible I'm not surprised American cars are garbage. I might be willing to buy a cheap American made item but if I'm going to spend thousands I need quality. Most Japanese cars can make it to 200 or 300k miles. I have never considered buying a Ford because of their past reputation. Car companies need to think twice before they produce a shitty car because the bad reputation they will get might haunt them for decades. It doesn't help that most of Fords new trucks cost 50-75k, way more than the average American can afford. Believe it or not their was a time when trucks were not super expensive. It also doesn't help that most trucks get terrible gas mileage a 30+ mpg truck would be a gamechanger. In Europe they have a few trucks that get 35-40 mpg and a few sedans that get close to 60 mpg so a fuel efficient truck is possible.
