I don't know how far a drive it is to the auction, but I think I would have driven back to get them. Looked like a big pain to hotwire them. Good score on the card however. You can never go wrong with a Toyota. Love my 2023 Camry and 2018 Toyota iM.
I drive a 32 year old toyota starlet. I've had it for 3 years now. I only did the downpipe, radiator, wheelbaring and thempature censor. It's still reliable and passed the safety checks without any issues! It just likes to drink oil like a two stroke!
I think you got a great deal on both! Very rare 5 speed Camry too! My sister's 1998 Camry was at 214k miles when it started rusting really bad back in 2013. So she "upgraded" to a 2011 Toyota RAV4.
I'm not sure anyone has filled you in yet, but the Subaru CVT issue is likely just the solenoid pack on the trans. It's far cheaper than replacing the entire transmission and typically fixes it long term. MrSubaru has excellent videos on the topic. Not a terribly difficult job.
Oh he also has a video called TR580 Valve Body Replacement which I believe is the exact one you'd be dealing with and he has a vid on torque converter failure if that ends up being relevant. I think that being the actual problem is very rare.
@@mitchstarr Yeah bizarrely Subaru still does a lot of transmission replacements, but I think it's unfortunately down to flat rate mechanics wanting to make more money swapping a trans, which is rather easy in a Subaru, than they would make just doing the valve body.
Dude the ford focus you need to take the ground out it's next to the battery clean it strip the paint off where it's mounted use some electrical grease and it will work fine
I have a 2003 Camry with the 2.4L 4 cyl engine and it has 211k on it and runs great. Watch for the head bolt threads stripping out of the block and causing overheating - had this problem but got the top half of the engine rebuilt and new head bolt studs for $1500 total and it runs like new. Also they like to burn a quart oil every 1,000 miles or so.
my family used to have a 2004 scion xa just like that in grey. my dad ended up getting into an accident with it and we always talk about how much we miss that car.
I look forward to all your videos, channel is growing like crazy. I’d love to see more road trips where you pick up cars like your blue Chevy. I have a 2011 scion XB, would recommend it for everyone.
Is this Auction a dealer auction or is it open to the public. I need a cheap vehicle to drive for my daughter whose a single Mom. Just something somewhat reliable doesn't have to be a flashy and cute . Anyways, I found you thru your Semi videos and have now subscribed to the channel!
Just got done reading. Toyota has CVTs that are recommended to be replaced or rebuilt at 120K. Sometimes 160K. Depending on the maintenance schedule. I think all modern cars are unreliable junk no matter the brand. I'll stick with my 96 Rav4. Nice buys on the two toyotas. I guess the Scion threw a fit and got itself a black-eye. 😂😊❤
tech tip. leave the nut on 5-10 turns on the steering wheel. that way when you heman it doesn't break the airbag wires and most importantly the wheel doesn't slam in to your face at 1000 mph.
its actually less fines with no tags at all but depends if a cop sees you. Ive driven many trucks from Florida to Maryland no tags nothing been pulled over once I told cop I just bought it and driving it 16hrs he said ok be careful and get home
You have 2 options: drive after dark or drive during heavy traffic so you blend in and the cop doesn’t notice. In my small town people will call the cops if they see someone driving with no plate. Not that I would ever consider driving something with switched pates ….
camry 5 speed $550 and the rockers are replaceable if you wish. 114,000 on the clock! id say that cat was a steal and can last 200,000 more if taken care of properly.
I now understand why so many kias get/got stolen after having seen a few of those Kia Boys videos. It's about as quick as using an actual key. Steer lock? Nah. Having to dismantle the steering wheel? Nah. Just rip off some plastic, snap off a single simple pin and boom, you're in business.
Even though getting the cars were harder than winning the cars, it was still worth it! A Camry with 114k miles is rare enough. One with a manual transmission? Super rare. I hope it gets the rust treatment it deserves! Both are are wins! Just hope your sister doesn't take much notice on the Scion's bumper!
i wouldve just drove back for the keys that was a lot of extra work and time xD yeah it sucks and idk how far you had to drive but i woulda just done that
Would say you did well the last camry I bought was a 2005 with a 170k on it but it was from Tennessee (spotless car no rust) price was $3500.00 which seems to be the going price there good cars though there's still a ton of them on the road. We did get to see your inner beast on that steering wheel that was funny 😂 great video.
Whaat? A bad Subaru...never lol. That 5 speed Camry is sweet, those go a pretty easy 300k miles if taken care of, for $550 it was a steal cancer or no cancer
Wow! $550 for a car with only 114k miles…in this market? That’s a bargain. Will VT fail inspection for that amount of rust? If so, run it over to NY. They don’t fail unless the rust is structural. I bet you could get $3-4k over there.
@@bigjohnson7415 VT has very strict inspection rules where any rust that is a hole makes it not road worthy. If your rockers are gone it really makes it a parts car. Not sure how you get around that especially if you plan on reselling it. Even if you know a shop that lets stuff slide, the future buyer can make a stink about it after the sale.
@@bigjohnson7415 VT really has the worst condition vehicles in the nation. I have traveled and bought a ton of them from all over and no state comes close. You don't want any vehicle that spent any time in VT! Beautiful state, terrible cars.
Well. Just a part of maturing. Always go through a checklist b4 leaving home, especially when you may have some immature friends that get you all excited. Lesson learned.
We had a Scion xA since new, 2005 also. Bought it with 2 miles and never had a single problem with it, just oil changes for regular maintenance. My sister rolled it swerving to miss a cat. Still one of the best cars our family has had, it had 315k when it was written off.
Those toyotas can run forever. Here in tanzania🇹🇿, africa the scion which is also known as the toyota IST for the JDM market is the best selling used car from japan in my country. They run forever
This may have been the poorest execution of my post purchase process to date, what do you guys think?
I agree. I can tell that you just wanted to be done with it. 😵💫
Could have had more airbag explosions, 6/10
Still a good video as always!
Standard shift Toyota, I never knew that they made one. That car could live almost forever
Does the Subaru need a valve body? That generation is notorious for them to fail in hot weather. Replaced a number of them when I was a Subaru tech.
Maaan I’d be mad after forgetting keys and livid after the scion thing lol. Props for wearing a smile throughout the video lmao
Haha thanks. Wasn’t an easy smile to keep lol
All that to steal a car?ill stick to home invasion

Be careful about where you set an airbag down. Anything that will create a static charge can set it off too

that's the sad thing about the older Toyota/Lexus models... they didn't have their rustproofing down until recently... case in oint the truck frames!

@@802Garage this do the valve body first
Yeah I thought that might have been a more simple issue, otherwise Subarus wouldn't be rated top 3 for reliability.

I own a 02 Camry XLE V6 Excellent Car.
66K subs!!! Killin' it in the 802! Congrats bro.
that camry, all cleaned up, is worth atleast $5k. Cant believe you scored that thing with only 114k miles for $550.

This guy is a great brother to keep his sister with something to drive......The car without a traditional instrument cluster is annoying........
Even after he damaged it more but yea. Still a good brother. 🥴

Wouldn't it have been easier to go back to Sharon and get the keys?
yes...
Dang dude.. if only it was a Hyundai or Kia. You could have used a USB cord.
We all know what's happening over at "THC Auto Auctions" lol
haha
Nice new cars and now I know how to Hotwire a car lol
I'd love to find a Camry with a stick shift! Nice buy with very low miles.
That dog done lost it's mind
Do you not class sills/rockers structural?
they are. i'll need to take care of them in the future
u should keep the camry as your burner car
The thing is with cvts is that you need to service every 40k miles MAX. The constructors lie all the time so that people pick them.

Hey have u ever gotten the transmission back for that GMC pick up?
You know you can Hotwire a car from the fuse box. Just saying.
You can jump the starter delay from there but it will just turn the starter, engine won’t fire unless ignition switch is turned

2 👍👍 up bro stay safe out there 🤞🥾🇺🇸🍼🐶🐕🦴🍗
What happened to the Audi?
still have the 2011. selling the 2019 for my friend
I love 5th gen Camry's.
Grandparents had an '02 in Silver in XLE trim.
That's a car they should have kept unitl they quit driving.
Thought you were going to smack yourself in the face with the scion steering wheel.
How do u register your vehicles so quickly? Or do u use a dealer plate?
That auction doesn’t exist here in Texas. Lucky dog
Wow a manual Camry!!!
Some good deals what did u pay for the cars?
Do you have a dealers license now?
Are you going to sell that camry??
Cvts are the worst thing to to hit the car market
Not bad deals at all

Great deal on the Camry, some of those Toyotas will last 300k miles.
Shoulda just went back and got the keys.
