Hi...I am a father of 5 adult daughters and I love to see a woman working on cars. I've always told my girls that you can do anything you have passion for so I love your "can do" attitude. I'm a new fan and look forward to watching your channel. Craig
Professional mechanic here. This is good. I love to see a woman car enthusiast. It's always been a guy thing. You go, girl! I want my grand daughter to do what I've been doing for 40 years. We'll see. I'm going to show her your videos.
Thanks for sharing with us, Doris. It was interesting hearing about your past and how you got into fast cars. Definitely keep your GT350. It's beautiful!
Back in the day, I had an E24 BMW M6 that i bought at a traffic light near Hollywood, CA. Long story but it was great all around. I gave up performance cars for luxury when i had kids, (son is now a surgeon so i did ok), built my garage for working on cars (lift, two toolchests ...) and planned on restoring a 60's roadster. I live in South Carolina now on the coast, as a retired Electrical Engineer. I recently found your channel when i saw the engine rebuild that brought back some memories. Love what you do, and the energy that you put into it. I loved the comment about when you take your car apart you have to keep going. Keep on going and have fun with your collection!
I lived in North Miami for years. After moving I dont miss it at all. I heard the accent and knew South Florida had to be involved. Good work. I found you from @sarahntuned . The best thing about youtube is that channels support each other. Most other forms of media are quite antagonistic. I drive a 16 Golf R. Im not into American cars at all. Well Mustangs are probably the best sounding V8s made here. Theyre ok, imo but I am much more into smaller yet rapid cars. Still, I like to see people starting out and do my best to support the channels. There are quite a few wealthy people that collect their 2 half a million dollar cars for christmas. This I like more. More grassroots. Hey, I might even start liking American cars.
I don't miss North Miami either..I used to dread driving through there lol. Yes, I've spoken to her a few times. We're planning something for 2019. I think it will be good for all and others looking to get into RU-vid. Golf R is a great car. The power, weight and AWD makes it a very fun car. I suppose the larger channels collect those big ticket items because their viewers like it. But they switch them out because it grows old to the viewer as they can't relate it many ways. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Take care.
You’re videos are awesome and it’s easy to see why your channel is growing so rapidly. I drive a F-150 FX4 on the weekdays and a 2013 Boss 302 on the weekends. I just bought my wife a 2017 GT California Special (her first fast car) which she absolutely loves. I have had many fast Fords over the years and I am completely brand loyal. Someday I WILL add a GT350 to my garage. It’s the most beautiful Mustang ever IMHO.
Thank you, I appreciate it. F-150's are just great trucks. I prefer them. Have you tracked your 302? There is a white one that shows up to the track days I go to and it's loud and really quick around the course. I bet your wife loves it..it's a mustang with a V8! lol. The GT350 will complete your garage, you'll love it. Take care!
Woman.Driven I have not tracked my car yet. I drive it pretty hard on the mountain roads in my area BUT your videos have inspired me to start racing. I will be doing some auto cross after the first of the year and head out to Willow Springs with the local Mustang club soon thereafter. Keep up the great content
Thank you for sharing and being so open, it was fascinating to discover what got you into cars and what motivates you. Your garage and approach to maintenance (and budgeting) is cleaner than any guy I've ever seen. IT infrastructure, virtual servers, wow, brains and beauty AND a car fanatic too, truly a potent combo. Love your accent, you're very well spoken, with excellent diction and explain everything you're doing really clearly including the rationale behind your decisions and ever so polite. Good luck with all your endeavours, hope your Brand goes well, I'm sure it will.
Thanks for making this video, it’s great that you open up and let your fans know more about you. Your bf is very lucky, you’re not just beautiful but are also pretty cool. Anyway, I’m an anesthesiologist from NY and my Shelby GT350 is my first American performance car. I had Japanese sport compacts and German coupes before, but I tell you nothing has made me so happy than our “humble” Ford. Keep up the good work and I hope you had a Merry Christmas!
I loved making this. It gave me an opportunity to interact further with my viewers. Great profession and great first American car...wonderful taste lol. That is true..a lot of the newer cars lost something. Ford brought it back with the GT350. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Hope your Christmas went well. Take care.
This was in my Recommendations I watched it it's nice to get to know you your the coolest woman mechanic on you tube 😋🤘🏼 you suprise me with the Spanish I am Puerto Rican and editing is crazy I know trust me it takes me like 2 days sometimes on my channel 🙂
You have good taste in cars and dogs too! I have two GSDs. The only reason I pursued a career in engineering was to make lots of money to buy cars. It’s good to see I’m not the only one.
Lol . Wow not throwing shade at my child mother but ,your the whole package.. not perfect but cute smile ,personality ,cheeks ,and you can take a joke .. need to share to all women your channel . Sorry for the long comment
Excellent taste in cars ! I went with a 2002 Z28 six speed t top as my first V8 car in 2017 for only 450 Bucks! long story short It was my first V8 pony car and not only that it was the car always wanted in High school Finally got one but it didn't even have a motor , trans or seats and fuel tank ....had ratty wiring harness that somehow worked at first... I didn't even know how too work on cars then, It was a long journey saving money sourcing parts ....ebay...... driving all over Arizona literally! get this it was done ! 2 years later only to completely break and destroy the Freshly and Fully Rebuilt GTO T56 on my first drive ! I almost cried I think I wasn't even hot rodding really I was going from 4th to 5th and it went into reverse well buzzed it the shifter bolts came halfway loose so the reverse lockout did work just not enough!!! Over 5 G's gone .... Also I was gonna start a youtube channel on the progress of the car problems with these F body's I even did the dreaded Fbody oil pan gasket change lowering the K member Lol that was annoying ,even made many videos just didn't know much about editing and how to present them without talking too much about other stuff I was even looking to rebuild the LS1soon if i could with more Cam I even fixed the speedometer and coolant temp sensor with the new LS harness I bought someone reverse the wires on me???? that genius how I problem solved that issue it would have been a great video ! my tuner was like damn bro i didnt wanna tell you but since the coolant temp isn't communicating too th ECM you car is actually shutting for a a millisecond ! while running but you fixed it he was impressed we got it tuned to over 350hp for sure I drove it for a year had a blast sold it Sadly Love your channel even if its on its way out ! besides the car channel youtube people really got into motivated me to do it ! I worked so hard busting my back working construction every summer just too have a little fun ! It was amazing time now I'm putting together a 2007 GT500 clone replica or whatever you ever you wanna call it now! white blue stripes ! Yeah Also I'm not really a Ford person I don't know anything about them hardly LS yes there are like Lego's Hey should I absolutely get a coyote engine ????? I'm thinking yes in a few years
@@woman.driven de nada...like I've said before...you sure do sound like a woman from south Texas...Laredo/Valley for sure...we all have that Spanish accent when we speak it...nada malo...pero así es
D, Nice to learn a little about yourself. It is rare to see any women set up like your garage with your lift, tools, doing your own work. My ride: 2017 BMW M240, black on black, sun roof. My first 2 door coupe. Fun, small daily driver, with nice HP, Torque, handling! Keep your videos fun, entertaining!
Hi Doris, merry Christmas to you and your family. I love your videos and your cars, espicaly when you work on them. My name is Patrick and am all the way in London, England and watch all your videos. Please please keep up the excellent work on your channel and am sure I speak for the rest of RU-vid, that I looking forward to all your future videos in 2019. God bless.👍🏾
Hello Patrick, good to meet you. Thanks for taking the time to watch my videos all the way from London. I will keep making videos and let's hope the 2019 year is great for everyone. Cheers!
I used to drag race back in the early 90's. It was Ford vs Chevy all day long😂. In the end, we're all gear heads and hot rod enthusiasts but the back and forth jabs is what motivated us.
Hola Doris tengo un problema con mi carro Ford fusión de principio el radio sonaba muy bien y luego en peso a fallar a ves es sonaba y asta que al fin ya no sonó que me puedes sugerir en ese problema .soy slgyo en que mira tus videos me podrías dar alguna idea cual podría ser el problema gracias eres una gran chica bye bye espera tu respuesta
@@juliogon4183 I suck at spelling in Spanish or I can't spell in Spanish but I can tell you what your problem is the problem is your car it's a girl's car get a man's car and problem solved 😯😂
I knew you were a special lady when you mentioned you wanted an E46 M3 as a project car. I own an ‘05 M3 that I bought brand new when I was stationed in Germany. There was a few times I thought about upgrading but it such a beautiful car that I could never do it. Being that it’s increasingly becoming a collector car, I’m glad I kept it. It still looks as good as it did when it was first delivered and only has 60,000 miles. If you get your hands on one, you won’t regret it. It’s been said numerous times that it’s the best M3 ever made. I just kind of regret that I got an SMG instead of a manual. It’s still lots of fun on the Autobahn and on the Nürburgring. I still want a GT350 but living in Germany as an expat and not a military member anymore, the euro spec one is the only one I can buy and that costs way more than if I was back home in Vegas. Love the videos! Keep making them and I hope to see an E46 M3 in your collection in the near future.
Hello Doris, Merry Christmas and happy New Year from Belgium. I found your channel when I was searching RU-vid for Nissan GTR videos, and I'm glad I did. I really love you're videos, and hope to see much more in the future.
Merry Christmas and happy New Year. I will likely visit Belgium next time I'm in Europe! Glad you ran into my video. Hope you enjoy the future videos. Thank you!
Doris you are the most amazing person I have ever watch on the you tube, and every time I watch you on the you tube you always know how to brighten up my day, and put a smile on my face 💙 ❤️
Your a Sweetheart. Learned alot about you thanks for the videos. I have the ss 1le Camaro. And I try like hell to do my own work on the car. Again thank you
Thank you and thanks for taking the time to watch. I'm glad I can somewhat be of help. I'm still learning, so the journey is far from over, for both of us lol. Cheers!
Haz un canal en español, aunque no sea tan "técnico" en detalles de los coches, sólo para conocer más de tu pasión por los coches¡¡¡ Saludos que linda sonrisa tienes. 😊
Just your run of the mill 2000 dodge ram laramie slt with a magnum 318 v8 and it differs from most of them because it is a quad cab long bed 1500 4x4... gloss black with most of the white pinstripe....
I'm jealous. Nice cars, nice garage and has skill. Seems to be beautiful on the inside, and isn't afraid to get her hands dirty. And it appears she's a Ford girl. Can't get any better
Omg, I didn't know I have been watching you this long. Now 2020, you don't age, and I have been so impress by your knowledge. I must say , my efforts to fix all my farm equipment, john deere, olde English, for I am a piece of junk, have improved. I have lights this winter, but heat at 0 degree is iffy, lol. But you are an inspiration.
Stumbled across your site to see your reaction to the AZ National's Drags a couple weeks ago. Glad you enjoyed it (I went on day 1 of qualifying...Leah Pruett is my favorite). Then I watched your tear down of your 350 engine. I'll do about anything on a vehicle, short of engine tear down; but was curious of your work. Pretty impressive; and as a guy with daughters, nice to see a woman showing she's not going to be stereotyped. Noticed in one video your FL plates; so I watched this one to see if you lived there. I retired from the Navy; spent 11 years in Jacksonville. Nearly moved down to Miami to work for a Johnson & Johnson company; but being a motorcycle rider...well, you know there's nothing great about FL roads (but there are a ton of great roads up and down the east coast). Anyhow, you made a good choice in AZ. I'm sure you love winding roads...some suggestions (some you probably have been on)...hwy 89 to Yarnell and up to Prescott, and further to Sedona...the radio towers up south mountain (but the city park rangers also patrol)...down to Tucson and across town to access the Catalina Hwy and go up to the top of Mt Lemon to Summerhaven...from Tucson, go north on 77 to Oracle, Winkelman, Superior (take a right once in Superior to go up the mountain towards Globe...or stay on 77 from Tucson, and go to Globe, then to Superior). I don't know if the road to Tortilla Flats has been repaved; but go out the 60 to Apache Junction, and take the exit to Canyon Lake...if it's been repaved, it is an excellent ride thru mountain grade curves (the road turns to dirt about 5 miles past Tortilla Flat; at which point on my bike, I turn around). A lot of great roads to ride in AZ. You also mentioned being an outdoors person...if that includes hiking, you'll love the Superstitions, Catalina St Park in Tucson, South Mountain, White Tanks (west of Luke Air Force Base)...be careful of the rattle snakes, in the past 5 days, 2 people bitten in the Cave Creek area.....Sedona, Flagstaff...in nearby Utah; Zion Nat Park via Page AZ (and 90 min from Vegas), Arches and Canyonlands Nat Parks north of Monument Valley (in Moab UT...also famous for off-roading), Death Valley (90 min west of Vegas), Yosemite Nat Park (another 3 hours beyond Death Valley), and Lake Tahoe, 3 hours from Yosemite (once you are in the Sierra's, traveling from Yosemite to Tahoe in a great vehicle is a dream). Anyhow; many of these places have probably been pointed out to you; some are more dog friendly than others. Hope AZ has been kind to you; and good luck on you channel.
Hey just found out about your channel. Normally I cringe when trying to talk to 99 percent of girls about cars but you genuinely seem to be into them, especially when you said you don't listen to the radio as much so you can hear the exhaust. I can't stand the girls who make car videos just to try and get our views then in the video they say they are not actual enthusiasts! Being from a financial channel myself I am curious what you do for a living to afford your hobby and would love talking more about money and finances with you. Also I am from Arizona myself.
Hi there, so glad you found my channel. That's true but there are plenty of other girls that are really into cars but we do need more of them on RU-vid. lol I love hearing the exhaust note, it sounds so good! I work as a Systems Engineer, been in the field for 7 years now. What part of Arizona are you from? Thank you for watching.
Ha yo sabía 😂 la primera vez que vi un video tullo dije la gringa racing y luego en otro video hablastes español y dije mmm la gringa racing sabe español mmm pero después en otros videos me pongo a fijarme mas y dije mmm ella es hispana pero no estaba seguro
Doris I've been watching your videos for a while now and am very impressed with you and your honestly. I have my 2015 Challenger Scat Pack and it's a manual cause I'm old school to me that's a muscle car automatic now days are totally different from years back but stick is to me the way to go You are the type of woman that is truly intriguing you put your mind to something and you do it and then you clean up and look beautiful more power to you have a safe and healthy holiday season to you and your family
I was trying to figure out that accent since I’m originally from Costa Rica but I been living in California for 27 years and when you said your parents are Nicaraguan that click to me about your accent...I said that beauty has to have some Latona flavor in it love your videos and your always positive attitude....
Hey Dorace....i am from India and maybe the first one too...i admire you and dont miss out on your videos..you are already exclusive and you dont have to do anything out of your comfort level ..just stay as you are and keep up the good work...i eould like to see the GT 350 up and running again..Take care and God bless .
You asked what cars do we drive. I have a 99 Pontiac Trans Am 5.7L A/T. 119,000 miles. All bolt on's done on the engine. 4.10 gears, complete suspension upgrades subframes back and C5 Corvette replica wheels. Past cars are 2 many to list. 2017 F150 EcoBoost at 500hp, 2017 Dodge Challenger T/A 5.7 hemi. Best car in my humble opinion was my 71 Plymouth Duster pro street. Great channel.
Hi Doris you killed this Q&A you also looked amazing please do more of these and looking forward for the Christmas video interesting job you have there and at 0:42 was Soooo Hot thank you for that : )
You are that friend in my head that just can't get enough of building & working on your car collection. I want a huge garage full of toys too!!! Time is always a factor...
Love the cars love your Spanish and a chick that's in to cars is a perfect chick just like yuh 😍 I gotta say your man is one luckyass guy .. OMG yuh live in Arizona me too 😃😃
My wife's in love with her 2013 Ford Mustang California Edition convertible wi h a 5.0 that has 420 HP. Thanks for the great videos, especially removing and tearing down the Mustang's engine. Ford needs to quit beta testing the public and own up to their engineering mistakes. But you fearlessly took it on! And are inspiring others. I just installed a lift and am looking forward to wrenching in the garage more.
Hey there! So I'm right next door to you in New Mexico. I just bought a 2016 Chevy Camaro 2SS. I found your channel by looking for mods to do to it. The car only had 14k miles and is completely stock. FOR NOW! Deciding on which exhaust I want and for sure a Intake. Love your videos and your laughter :)
Hey! Thanks for stopping by. Congrats on your new purchase..you'll love it. I have a friend that I raced on the channel with a 2SS..They're really really fast. He put a beating on my GT350. Any mods you do will respond really well. Thanks for taking the time to comment and watch. Cheers! 😊
Hi Dorace! I drive a GT 5.0, 2016! I love your videos! And I love the fact that you work on your own cars...I'm not there (yet), but it's refreshing to see a woman gearhead. I so look forward to watching more of your videos. YOU ROCK!
Doris I myself was born in Miami in 1969. It was a good town back in the 70's . If you were my daughter I would be proud of your accomplishments. The man who takes your hand will have a rare gem. Your cars are beautiful and is the woman you've become. 🙂
I drive a custom Mopar dodge ram truck and my fast Mopar dodge charger. I'm born and raised here in AZ and enjoy meeting new people from all over. I don't need to travel outside of az much cuz different people from all over are flocking over here to Az so it's nice to see and meet people from different places..see you at the pavs sometime. Stay vivid Doris..happy new years
I really enjoyed getting to know you as I just found your channel yesterday. I sent your channel link to my daughter who also has a GT Mustang. She and her boyfriend have done many mods to it already like flipping it from an auto to a manual and many other things. Her next big mod will be installing her Pro Charger. I just purchased a Limited edition f-150 EcoBoost twin-turbo and have done a bunch of mods in the two weeks I've owned it and that how I found your channel. Thanks for sharing sweetie..
I just seen your video and is amazed at the knowledge you have of your car.your parent's have to be very proud of you and so am I..keep up the good work. 💯
Not a question just wanted to say why I follow your RU-vid channel. I originally was drawn to how pretty you are. As I was watching the video of work you did on your GT350 it’s then that how clean you do things and how respectful you are that made me subscribe to your channel. I loved your video on cleaning the 720s I really hope you are always blessed in life. God bless you!
Love your sensibility and your sincerity. Nice to see a lady who appreciates the mechanics of an automobile. I'm Robert nicknamed RoCa, Dominican live in NY. I was always into cars, would someday like own a '67 GTO so I can mod it out. Just started being an Automotive technician, I said like you would say Someday I'll learn to fix and repair cars and here I am... 👨🔧⚒🚘
Hey. Thank you and thanks for taking the time to watch. Nice to meet you. A '67 GTO..that's a nice one to mod. I started a while back on my own and learned as I went..still a lot to learn but I enjoy it. You will to. Take care.
Hey Doris! I'm from "crowded" South Florida too😂 currently still here in Fort Lauderdale. In love with that Mustang of yours sheesh!😍 Nothing sexier than a woman working on her own car.. RARE!💯 I drive a 2012 Ford Fusion Sport that I too am in love with! I'm also an IT Systems major. Keep up the beautiful work you're doing! #AMAZING
south florida is crazy crowded. i flew down there to get my challenger and it was insane the traffic. im so glad i live in an area where the population is a lot smaller.
Just found you today looking at videos of Redeyes since I just got one. Was amaze with this girl (woman) that was doing her own work on her cars. I just had to find out just who she was. Love your "Know me" video which answered my many questions that I had. Keep up what you are doing for you just make my day watching you with your cars and oh, love your many outfits. Will be watching for your Redeye mods ;-)
