    I love your channel brother. My only complaint is this: in 2014 I lost a really good friend to a freak accident. He was in the hurry to change his oil on his mustang and just used a floor jack, like the one you used. It failed on him while he was under the car and he basically died a pretty slow death as the car crushed the life out of him. His son found him about 15 minutes too late. Be safe bro. It's not worth it. Jack stands save lives.

    When I was 16, I destroyed 3 transmissions in just under 2 years. What I learned though, was that in the GM automatic transmissions, reverse goes first. It takes twice as much pressure as the forward gears. So, if the transmission is starting to go out, you'll lose reverse first.
    So... when taking an older car for a test drive, put it in reverse and punch it. No problems in reverse, and she's fine.

    One of the things that I absolutely love about your channel is the lack of cussin'. Mind you I'm no prude, I've been known to let out a sting of profanity that is still hanging over lake Erie, but I really appreciate your frustration coping. However, when you took the maro for its first test drive and veered off into the bushes, and let out and 'oh shit', I knew two things. One, that the situation was instantly real, and two, that I was laughing my ass off at the first time I had ever heard any kind of swear word out of your mouth. Keep on keepin' on! You sir, are the best auto mechanic channel on TH-cam.

    Hi Deric. Loving your show again. So here in the UK we have a very strict Ministry of transport test. You cannot drive your vehicle at all without this test. It will stop you having an application for our annual vehicle tax. So you need to pass the test and its tests everything! Including emissions. In a nutshell everything you’ve driven would not pass the test.
    Mike Taxi one days old. Gets the test. But if you buy a brand-new car test once it hits three years of age. And then on for every year that lives!
