Hey Scotty! Would you like to go to China to review their cars? I think people would watch your videos and honest reviews about them. Their manufacturers should be confident enough to give you cars to dig deep in them, since they export them to Russia and Europe.
@ Scotty I live in Los Angeles, In-N-Out's 2023 4X4 burger was $8.35. 2024 4X4 burger is $10.40.
We still buy gas from Russia, Russian oil tankers go into international waters and unload their gas into a oil tanker, that doesn't operate under the Russian flag.
PLEASE dont quit TH-cam WE need YOU!!!
👋☺️😴
If you make $28,000 in California, you sleep on a park bench. An electric bill is your last concern
you make 40K haha
Yup New York too 😂
A good question to ask is WHY are places people want to live in expensive? Could be more than just nice weather. Might it be corporate and real estate price gouging. Maybe big oil taking advantage of us, KNOWING we don't want to buy crappy and expensive EV's and ride the bus. Maybe life is lots cheaper elsewhere - BECAUSE not as many want to be there, and deal w the backwards hillbilly politics!
In calif .if you make 28 k a year and you are an illegal , then you get lavish welfare benefits and give aways on top of that , and you can pilage stores everyweek , and are above the law, while driving a new car bought with a state car purchase voucher filled with gas from a state gas voucher, and drive back to a apartment paid for with rent vouchers ,and prepare meals purchased with food security vouchers.
People who make 80k a year in California can't afford rent or home mortgages.
$100k is poor in CA.
That's a very hard life for a family in California with just 100k a year
True
Nope, depends where in CA and your house is paid off, then 100k is very good.
@@RacerX1971 or if you're a trust fund kid. 😂 Then 100k is real good. I will set my sons up like that. My parents sucked at this tho.
@@RacerX1971100k is good. Not “very good”. Houses that were 300k are now worth over 500k. If ur single w/no dependents, 100k is actually 70k after taxes. So no it’s not “very good” at all.
I make $45,000 a year here in California. I live in my car... that's why I watch you Scotty! my livelyhood depends on my car being reliable and how to maintain it.
lucky to be able to afford a car with that income. good luck in CA man. My brother lives there and he barely gets by.
My friend was a manager at in n out in San Diego. Told me he made like $53k/yr. He ended up moving to Idaho. CA cost of living in way to high.
😒😒😒
@@k_escobar917Idaho is just as expensive as CA now
@@pigyear88nah not lucky assuming he drives a beater, an a decent 03 civic would be like 3k, and doing your own repairs/maintenance saves ALOT of money
In Alberta Canada they just brought out a fee to register your EV yearly...to replace lost road taxes from fuel sales.
There trying to do that here in the US this year
Yup!
Where do people think the gov will get their taxes from? These EV drivers are absolutely clueless.
Of course. EV drivers don't have to contribute to road taxes??
Indiana electricity company is working with the governor to raise our electricity bills 16% now, and they just raised the bill in 2020 to take care of trees interfering, and our yearly gas tax increase just kicked in also, yes our local go signed a bill to raise gas taxes continually every year in increments automatically
and you still live in Indiana? LOL
It’s a crock, isn’t it?
Still beats Crook County Illinois
The criminal politicians over spend on nonsense and the tax payers foot the bill.
My 35 a month electricity in Chicago is now a $105 a month.😊
They are driving me out of my home of 30yrs.
Its been like that in CA for the last 15 years.
Left the beautiful state of California in the late 80's, and will never go back.
I live near an elderly gentleman that used to live in Califas for decades. Finally moved out and told me once he'd never go back. He said they "went crazy" lol
What was it like back then ?
Visited Cali in the 80's ...... would never go back.
I left in '74. Never been sorry! But it IS a beautiful state!
@@Mrfixitmarty So is Hawaii...to visit, I live in Commiefornia and think vacationing once every few years would be more than enough, just like Hawaii. I met a guy in OR who left in the 70s, I was young and told him how much property price appreciation he missed. He laughed and said something like the sale of his 3-BR tract home afforded him 100 acres (or something). We're losing Congressional seats now as population drops. It'll soon be 50% rich and 50% lillegal immigrants (to mow their lawns), not a healthy place to be.
A utility that has a monopoly cannot charge different rates for the same product. Some group will sue to stop it. But the fact they think they CAN do it is the worst part.
Exactly thats illegal and unconstitutional!
Its prejudice pricing
Brother, you are the biggest reality check. I live you.
The poor will never have a ev
Wuling Mini cost 4500 $ in China....
That's the point... take away people's cars and ability to move around the country. Make them dependent on government public transportation.
Poor people won't be able to afford gas so they will be stuck in their small communities dependant on the government.
Corporations raise the price of their services/products to the consumer...they never absorb taxes.
$180,000 isn't even "rich" in California. That's the income you need to maybe by a house -- someday. That'd be a lot of money many places, but not here.
Plus at 180 you enter the crazy tax bracket and will usually always end up paying taxes every year. If your single with no kids or wife I imagine that’s 20-40% total income
Don't cry for me, California!
I've never been, and won't go!
Your the best Scotty. Love your video's. Keep up the great work..
Here's one you'll love. Goodwill industries ("industries" what's that mean, I call em the Greedywill now) call themselves a "charity", not only do they not pay any tax, they get grant's from the government. Last I checked about 10 years ago probably now, after all their so called charitable expenses and all their other expenses combined cleared 5 billion. Yet if you go and purchase anything there you have to pay (in Illinois) over 10% in sales tax.
I agree Leslie. Also, some of their prices are outrageous; especially since it was essentially donated?
I used to work for them. You got it right.
No tax at the Goodwill in California.
Thanks good to know. Should be that way in every state, if they don't have to why should we? Here they ask you "Do you want to round up?" Huh? Round up? No I want to round down! Have you ever heard of such a thing! You'd be amazed how many people say yes, the fools, but if they knew what I just divulged I'm not so sure they'd agree. That's truth and they don't like the truth in their perfect little world.
Lived there, left there.
In Wisconsin it's called Energy Assistance. Everyone who pays a utility bill has a fee added to the cost which is used to subsidize the energy costs paid by low income users. If they personally pay the monthly bill it is credited to their account. If utilities are included in their rent they get a cash money payment directly to themselves. These payments can be fairly large. $1,000 once a year isn't unusual. This has been going on for decades. A pretty cozy relationship between "government" and giant corporations.
May God bless Scotty & those that share with him!❤🙏
I live above 5,000 ft in southern California. We typically have 5-8 snow storms a year above 4500 ft and 6 miles downhill the orange groves begin turning to avocado groves. I can see san Diego Mexico and Pacific Islands over 90 miles away. Even though it's been mid 70's the last 4 days there's still traces of snow. Scotty was talking about electricity?
We're off grid solar. Haven't paid for electricity since 2013.
Only a matter of time before they start tracking your off grid usage and tax you for it.
Hush Hush! They passed a law to force people in San Diego to connect to the grid, regardless. Enoy your freedom while you can. Also, the rich can afford to move!
Just Realize California just Recently put Meters on People with Wells on their Property, to Charge them for Their Water.
It WILL Happen with Solar as well Going Foreword. It’s just a Matter of Time.
@@jaminova_1969 I'm over a mile from any wires. There is no electricity here. None. Ain't gonna happen.
@@jaminova_1969I'm on SSDI, renters insurance made it so I could afford to relocate, after an apartment fire where I lived in Connecticut
You are right on the money! I live in SD Californoa. You talk about high rents, high utilities, etc. Etc it SUCKS !!
Simpler times no longer exist anymore
The Amish are laughing their asses off at that statement. 🤣
Strong men create good times
Good times create weak men
Weak men create hard times
Hard times create strong men
That is completely false. My family has gone through hard times, and none of the men in my family are "strong." They are weak minded, abusive and extremely insecure. We grew up poor. @wooferjr169
@@wooferjr169 We are indeed entering a much earned reality check. This is where people in small delusional bubbles are given the kindness of seeing the big picture to encourage them to choose reality, pray that it’s effective, merciful, and short.
Another great video Scotty! Thanks.
Gas is 10 dollars a gal
I live in Southern California and even though I love the weather here, I hated the ridiculous & unfair politics here!! The tax is so high we are paying 30-40% more on gasoline here. My local sales tax is 10.25% which applies to both new and used car purchases!!! Buying an $40K car the sales tax is $4100!
Sounds like Illinois
You gotta pay to play. There are plenty of other states that you can move to that don't have the diversity or vibrant life of Cali. You gotta sacrifice something.
@@gary.s7759The traffic is so congested and not worth it to go to places nowadays. Thanks to the immigration policy for the illegal aliens.
@@gary.s7759none of that matters when it comes to survival
@@gary.s7759no one actually give a f about diversity in fact many people prefer the opposite. But yeah there’s plenty of places with nice weather, and even no income tax! Keep coping kid
The one time I went to CA, I flew in and left as soon as I no longer needed to be there any longer.
Left California in '88. Saw the writing on the wall. Realized I'd be a renter all of my life
Scotty, Re: Yaris Front Bearings. Perhaps a Napa can do this work? Some retail shops have the press in the back.
Thank you for making this video.
Scotty -your words are spot on.I,sadly know first hand,as I live in the San Francisco Bay area.It's hard to find words😢😮
Rich people buy politicians for their own policies.
Agreed. But the poor people are bad. F the rich
Nailed it 💯 % !!!!
Most Electric Cars are gonna burn up because of very hot climate areas in many states mostly 100° and up.
How long will they last in extreme hot weather and how dangerous would they be is one of my worries about Electric Cars.
I think it's a stupid idea to try to force us to use them rather than Gas cars, especially in hot areas.
Phone batteries will explode.
Exactly!
All taxes are paid by the consumer, Company's are basically tax collectors.
I live in California, I'm in my 30's, and I still live in my parents house making 35,000 a year... If I didn't have my folks I know I would be living on the streets...
I made less than 25K per year in 23 and I'm not on the streets nor do I live at home. Sure I haven't a pot 2 pass in.
I thought the excuse for raising the price in spring is the change from winter blending to summer blending.
That's a price increase every year. Then they do another price increase to change blends again.
5:14 Some of the Buick models are made in China and shipped here. Always knew it was a home grown maneuver.
Great video.
Nailed it.
Cost of the electricity is going up for everyone in California. In the last month’s bill, it showed that the electric company is planning to raise the rate by more than 40%. They cited aging electric transfer infrastructure as the reason for raising the rate.
Love you Scotty
Pull your heads out...Politicians will NEVER raise the taxes on the same people that they get their money from....
Scotty more than a super mechanic 👍👏💯
The whole country has gone to hell-Not just California
Said by someone who hasn’t lived in California. This place is hell man. I’ve been to other states and they were 10x better.
I wish I could give more than one thumbs up to that. I say that phrase at least once a day, seems like lately. (not including the Califas part)
Unbelievable. How long do they think this is going to continue this way, pretty soon only rich people will be able to afford to work ffs . Well folks I think its time to move outta the US before its too late
Bidens America
Almost like fe.min.ism is com.mu.nism...
Even 180k isnt THAT rich anymore in California. Tax the super rich at least. 28k/year getting taxed?? Wtf
We're all EQUAL now, allegedly.
Pay your taxes. 😂
My math may not be correct, but isn't that right at $13 an hour? You can't even get by on that in CA even if you still live at home and your parents pay all your bills.
Seeing someone else with this pfp is a trip
The super rich own the politicians, they're too busy kissing super rich backsides to do anything to make the cash cows mad at them.
@@yur-wj2cq It is indeed. Been using it my entire time on TH-cam and you are the only other one I've seen with it. Happy to encounter a fellow fan 😁
Keep the truth coming mate watching from Australia 🤟
Corporations just pass on any additional costs to their customers, if they pay any tax.
We love you Scotty.
Arizona loves you.
I’m low income so I’m lost in the mix.
I always would make my check out too pacific graft and extortion drove I to Oakland once and paid my bill in change.😂😂😂😂
I was watching Dave's Auto center on TH-cam the topic was what do golf balls and Pistons have in common the discussions was about speed of air piston and United Engine Machine I would like to hear your opinion on this old WW2 aircraft technology that they are putting in truck to help them run more efficient and be better for the environment thank you for what you do enjoy your educational show
Your a legend man 💪
The people who follow the EV fad are to blame for crap like this.
What? Why?
Maybe charging your electric car off a coal powered grid isnt as green as these morons thought....
@@studio107bgallery4
because they fell for the climate crisis rubbish about Co2.
0.04% it makes up of the atmosphere. Water vapour çontributes to the greenhouse effect much much much more than Co2.
It's so insane.
EV drivers think they're saving the planet. Fiúk BBC
Actually, it’s the fault of the ignorant and apathetic idiots who are allowed to vote and suck up resources.
You’re delusional. I’m as conservative as it gets living in North Carolina and love the instant torque of the a/c motor car.
They’ve already raised the rates in British Columbia, I knew it was coming
Bc is canuckistans Cali nice weather but they are fuked in the head politics and massively corrupt
Repartition of wealth doesn't really create more value it just makes people rely on goverment handouts more. Creating value and teaching skills are how you make a country rich; money (outside of inflation) is just there to measure how much value a country has created.
Scotty on a mission to live in every state
You can Run, but you can't hide lol
The thing that I don’t understand as new American, they say the people made the law, but clearly people hate the law they made, why?
The people didn't make the laws, the crooked Politicians made the laws.
@@wza223-fo3mc to?
Scotty you are so right
The dash on my MK3 Focus is doing the same thing. It's all a sticky mess. Part of it is the plastic itself but the other part is the soft touch coating that they spray on the plastic. Soft touch coatings almost always become sticky after a few years. I have a handful of old electronics that are like this...old cell phones, point and shoot cameras, etc. I wish companies would stop using the stuff. Soft touch used to be nice but now that we know it becomes sticky, I'll take hard "cheap" feeling plastic any day.
Crude has gone up by $20 a barrel so yes gas follows suit….always been the same
Wish I could leave also. California is a hell hole.
Scotty you remind me of a Mad Scientist ...... I LOVE THIS GUY
Praise to you scotty, this is exactly why I’m never getting a new vehicle as long as my 2009 ford ranger lasts, I trust the non eco/ hybrid/ electric engine, no matter what breaks on it I’m not getting anything newer, idc how much gas will cost, I’m not getting rid of my simple truck
When I moved out of CA in 2014, My taxes were audited 2 years in the rolls, they keep elminated my 2106 business deduction and bills me 4900 for one years and 5000 for another year one after another. I am no longer a contractor.
I hope everything is okay in your future, 2106 doesn’t sound lit
I moved to Las Vegas in 1978. I'm a retired painter. I could see California getting ready to become a dumpster fire. Vegas kept me busy and flush with cash.
I said something similar where I live... with the solar panels. I said if it's based on policy , the policy can change
Thanks for the info Scotty 😊
Loyal Toyota Tacoma buyer but my 2013 4x4, V-6, Crew Cab SR-5 had the paint on rear passenger door around window paint peeled off. 89,xxx miles. Recall covered?
They will pass the cost on to the consumer..
Why don’t we tax the primary consumers of electricity, these massive corporations!
In Australia they are looking to charge people for generating their own electric stating that they are being charged for storage. So if you have a ton of solar on your roof then you will start to be charged
🎉LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!🎉
You moving next door w/ us here in the valley of heat lmao
❤ Scotty's New Home❤
I left CA in 1980. Great place to be from.
I hope you don't leave Tennessee Scotty. Me and my wife was going thru Clarksville on I-24 Tuesday. Maybe sometime we can come by and meet you sometime. Maybe drive one our older vehicles.
Last I knew Scotty lived in Rhode Island. I live in Rhode Island. Take me with you.
Godspeed
UR right Scotty!
We do buy gas from Russia. They ship the crude oil to India, India refines it, then the US buys it. Does this make any sense ? Not when we have plenty of natural resources right here in the US.
What state is actually cheaper to live in compared to CA. And what are the wages in those states if you work in construction?
hey scotty what is your opinion on 2024 nissan versa s 1.6 liter with a 5 speed manual. i was interested in getting it for my next car
Does that 1.6 have turbo's? how about direct injection? Those are two big no-no's that my 2.0 Kia does not have. Yeah I'd love to get into a 5 or 6 speed manual but the engine that matches up to it needs to last awhile too. Wow a manual, huh? tell you what these CVT's are taking over... but nothing beats a manual if you actually know how to DRIVE one...

****I had my 2007 Lexus ES350 dash replaced by a Lexus dealership for free, not sure if the grace period for replacement is expired.
Hello from California Scotty! Please pray for us 😂
The government would have to give me an electric car, but I may not be able to afford my electric bill. 🇨🇦💝🇺🇸🙏👍
How do you charge 9/10th of a dollor. Like in the United Kingdom they charge anything between 1/5 to 7/8th gbp
Left CA as well. Too much Corruption.
Same issues in Ireland. We too are told to buy EV cars. And yes electricity prices rise!!
It's a club, Scotty-- and we're not in it.
I like the family living in the cardboard box!
The first line of a Scotty Kilmer video is my magic 8 ball for life decisions
Here in Canada, a diesel-electric truck manufacturer, Edison Motors of BC, tried to get a government grant but the NDP government had a consulting firm to assist grant applicants that demanded a 20% cut of the grant to get the grant approved. This was exposed by Edison Motors the by the news networks of Canada as well as by Louis Rossmann on TH-cam. Corruption at its finest in BC.
My favorite American cars are the OLD American cars. Make mine like Al Bundy's trusty old Dodge Dart Sport. O.K, so it's actually a '71 Plymouth Duster, but you get what I'm saying. 225 Slant Six, Torqueflite automatic, and, ah, what the heck, throw in a Sure-Grip differential just for the fun of it. The car might not be a looker, like, say, a Dodge Charger or Plymouth 'Cuda from the same Era, but it would run...and run...and it wouldn't cost a FORR-CHIN to maintain, let alone repair.
I'm in a state of confusion 😕
Don't forget the extra registration fees charged for plugin's and hybrids.
Under the previous administration our strategic oil reserves were completely filled up in case of emergency. Under this administration they have pulled it down to some of the lowest levels ever, to artificially lower the price of gas to help in an election. The problem is now oil is over $80 a barrel and this administration cannot afford to replace the oil that it took out for Time of war. They have declared war on our countries energy. Russia shouldn’t even have enough money to fight the war they are fighting right now if it wasn’t for all the gas and oil they were selling. It was not like that under the previous administration. Other countries were told not to buy oil and gas from them or the United States would not deal with them. Russia was broke. Iran was broke. Look at them now. As we beg the Saudi‘s and everybody else for oil and junk tar, after this administration called them a pariah then they laugh in his face and tell him no when he begs for more oil. These people are nuts we need real leader ship and we need to be energy independent so have plenty of gas and oil, becoming energy independent and dominant again and get energy prices down and inflation down and pay off some debt. Drill baby drill! And refine it in our country. The cost of Energy is the biggest driver of inflation.
Exceptionally well said!
We pumped more oil this year than ever.Prices still went up
Oil is being produced at higher rates and gas is still high
Bingo! You are spot on -
ABSOLUTELY TRUE

I agree

He is so on point..
Let it lose brother..
Love it..
Thanks so much for standing for hard working low paid Americans
Im not from CA but have lived here for 34 years. Its a 💩 show. For 3 months ive been paying over 600.00 a month for my gas and electric. They are making us all poor. If health permitted we would be out of here.
