- I bet you've NEVER seen one of these on the road! So as a comedian and car collector, when I recently got the opportunity to purchase what is widely considered one of the WORST vehicles and biggest automotive punchlines in highway history, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to experience it for myself… Check out my test drive to get this “unicorn” detailed and then let me know in the comments below what is the worst car you ever loved!

All I can say Jeff is that is awesome extremely awesome. I myself own a 1960 Oldsmobile 98 it looks great runs good floats down the highway like a land yacht. Keep up the good work and giving laughs. I saw your show here in Albuquerque New Mexico you were awesome you and your crew do an awesome job but still love your Yugo, car and I still think about your H1 hummer and what you said about it that was lotta laughs to keep up the good work. Stay safe and be careful. Please be careful.
That car is worth money because of people like me, so you’re welcome. I’ve totaled over 300 Yugos through the mid 90’s. I used to jump a Yugo into a pile of Yugos at monster truck shows and dirt track events back in the 90’s. When those started getting harder to find, I went to an even worse car, the Dodge Colt. I took out about 200 of those as well. The Colt was far less reliable and you only had about a 30% chance that the good one would start for the jump.
Stupid fact on why the Pinto was given so many lies about why it caught fire. There was 1 event where the car exploded and damaged about 30 other vehicles. You could have blamed it on the car or more realistically blamed it on the fact that some gas station owner thought it was a good idea to sell gas for $0.07 a gallon because he got a great deal on gas because of someone fucking up the paperwork and a bunch of people used their Pintos to drive there because the Pinto had great space inside of them to be able to place a bunch of containers and well it was well seen by one of the survivors that said they saw the guy smoking and he put his cigarette out inside of a giant punch bowl filled with gasoline and the gun had nearly 300 gallons of gas inside the car and inside containers strapped to the roof and gasoline is very flammable especially when you have a shit ton of gasoline and you are smoking cigarettes and you put one cigarette out by plunging it into the gasoline. That car went up in flames like a fucking bomb because it was turned into a bomb because of gasoline and not the car. Stupidity of the drivers is why the car gets a bad rap while the car itself was not bad at all and in fact there are people who still drive them and several companies who still use their original Pintos for their businesses. There are over 500 vehicles with over 100,000,000 miles on there speedometers and they are all Pintos with 1 having been used constantly with nearly 0 maintenance and has traveled over 15 billion miles for its company as the main work vehicle and instead of flying their employees still drive that 1 vehicle because it does not die and needs nearly no maintenance and when it needs maintenance its new brakes and new tires and gas and oil changes and 7 times its had its spark plugs replaced in the last almost 70 years. Yea the thing has had no real maintenance because it does not die ever and is a really really good vehicle. Aside from dumbasses driving with open gas containers and missing the ash tray and plunging their cigarettes into gasoline there is no safety issues at all.
Well technically when you are driving you are not at home and technically kids should not be driving in the first place because they are too young to be allowed to drive so in reality you should have said "Middle age teenagers and adults do not do that on the road.".
He deserves what he has, when you watch him do his stuff.... well he told his kids, put your nose to the grind stone. The hours of continuous practice he has to do, to perform his characters like he does.. His timing on changing voices as quickly as he does would take tremendous hours of practice. So cool in his performances..
Jeff I think ..love the underdog, in fact.... I was riding do down the road in Carolina in a Gremlin and a Yugo came to the side of us and driver yelled out to us ''Hey I don't feel so bad now!' LOL... and as the Yugo pulled away, we noticed a bumper sticker and it read..
'UNDERDOG !
I had a friend that bought one the first year of import. Everyone laughed and thought it was a joke of a car but he was laughing all the way to the bank with the fuel savings. He did regular maintenance and never had any trouble with it. kept it in like new condition
My dad owned 1 of them, I really don't understand why people from America(and the rest) constantly bash on Yugo, we basically never had any problems with it, granted my dad kept good care of it(change filters and all that on time). He had it for like 15 or 20 years and it never had any major problems. Was it the best quality? Nope, but it was cheap car, what do people expect?
Thank you! I spent more time invested in Yugo in this video than I have in my life. I'm 51. My perspective on Yugo has definitely been changed and I have to say it... It's not that bad.
When you pulled into the parking lot. You should have had Bubba J in the passenger seat. Or in the drivers seat when you parked it. Unless you really wanted to go for it. Then wear a Bubba J costume when you were driving it. Playing the music when you introduce him on the radio.
Jeff. I have seen you perform on stage many times, you're great! It's nice to see you share some small part of your personal life with us fans. Thank you. God Bless!
I was busting up laughing, watching this video. Good for you showing us something different. Its almost too bad this car is not still sold today. Cars are too exspensive. Love your shows Jeff. ❤
As a young enlisted military couple (serving in the U.K.), my husband and I had a Yugo. I didn’t know how to drive a stick-shift, so I pushed it while he started it. I did this while pregnant with twins. Not a fond memory. 👎🏼🚗🌧️
I have to ask. Did you have to put car seats in it when your twins were born? 😂 I could not imagine having to put babies in car seats in a Yugo.
such an american thing to say. "can't drive a stick shift"
@@iggsy61it's a generational thing, not a regional thing. I know many older folks that can drive manual but can't copy paste in a computer.
I would have it repainted to a flashier color.
That Yugo has the same shape as the 1980 VW diesel Rabbit DH&I had. It had the smallest H-shaped stick shift configuration I had ever driven, ever. Even smaller than the MG midget MiddleDD’s boyfriend let me drive back in 1998.
I need to borrow one of my sons-in-law’s vehicle to freshen up my stick-shift-using abilities.
Sounds like a car that was literally "push-to-start."😂
A man that plays with dolls drives a Yugo. Why am I not surprised. Much Love, Ron
OMG! My bf had a Yugo and NEVER had a problem with it until she totaled it on black ice 3 years after buying it. She was so bummed 😂♥️
I raced a Yugo one nite and it smoked me. Lol. Hahaha. 😂
Hey at least the rear window defroster kept your hands warm when you were pushing it. 😂
Its 2023 and i saw a 90s geo metro a month or so ago. i had to laugh, those cars, the metro and the yugo do make me smile and bring me back. another forgutten gem is the 3 cylender chevy spirit from the late 80s
WOW!!! Jeff, TRUE STORY: In 1992, I bought this EXACT BODY STYLE YUGO AND COLOR from a friend, for $100. I was a Sophomore in High School. ('I'm not sure of the exact year, but I believe it was a 1982). My friends were in "VO-TECH" in High School (Vocational School, so you can learn a trade, Brick/Block Laying, Carpentry, Auto Mechanics, Auto Body, etc). They said, "Let us take your car in, and we're do all the mechanical, and body work. The teacher will help us, it will come out perfect, and we'll have a project". I'm like "SOUNDS GOOD". LONG STORY SHORT. They had it in the Auto Mechanic Garage in the School, on the Hydraulic Lift. AND,... FOR GOD ONLY KNOWS WHAT REASON,.... THEY WOULD PUT THIS INTO A SCHOOL FOR HIGH SCHOOL KIDS,.. the Hydraulic Lift had an 'Independent Piston Option". So they use to play a "game", to see who had the "guff" to keep tilting the vehicle on the lift. NEEDLES TO SAY,... my 82' Yugo, became a PANCAKE!!! They flipped it off the lift, onto the roof!!! I only got to drive it ONE TIME for like 2 MILES!!!!!
The spare tire is a safety feature. It is actually the primary impact absorber in a front crash. When it was removed, the Yugo flunked the crash safety tests.
Chrysler wouldn't let me bring that idea back in 2015 for crossovers. I think it would've been a useful space and weight saver.
I sold cars cars for a while in the mid 80s and I remember trying to sell these. As soon as they looked under the hood and saw the sewing machine in there most buyers headed for the door.
Around 1990 in Jacksonville, Florida, there was a new car dealer that advertised: "Buy one of our new cars and get a free brand new YUGO!". Had I not bought a new car a year earlier, I'd have taken them up on the deal. BUT, I didn't need three cars...😞
Ohh! So sorry I think I saw that floating down the street! 😮 Hope you didn't go too! Sad to see what happened there! Stay safe!
Surprised Achmed isn't there co-piloting for you. If not the YUGO: It will kill you! (ha ha)
Jeff gives the yugo to Walter.😠 He says "Thanks a lot.🙄 For the 1st time in years, I own something that is going to die before I do."☠⚰
Do I remember them! After 1000. Miles, it was all downhill. The best I can say is it was like driving a go-kart with a windshield. And that was the only option that actually worked.
Man walks into an auto parts stores and says "have you got a gas cap for a Yugo?" Parts Guy says "Sounds like a fair swap"
Thanks Jeff for this video.
My late stepbrother owned a used car lot in Tucson and purchased a 1988 Yugo at the car auction in Phoenix, Arizona with 35,000 miles on it. The car broke down about 80 miles from the auction and he had to tow back to his lot. Nobody would buy it and he scraped it after two years.
You mentioned Ford Pinto’s he sold allot of those with few returns. The. Pacer he refused to buy because they weren’t good …”his words.
He even bought a Deloreean and lost his shirt in repairs before it sold.
Have a nice day.
From the Company that Brought you the Yugo, introducing the I Go motorcycle, and the WE GO minibus...
My husband got a 2007 Chevy Aveo for a winter beater. Manual everything. Cheap on gas too! He loves it!
Yugo here! Yugo there! Yugo everywhere in a Yugo! 😂
The first Saturn SL1s were underpowered for sure. They made 88 horses from those 1.9L engines. Took a long time to shift!
The 1988 Yugo GVX was the first one I bought for myself after driving my mom's hand me down Ford Tempo for a year. I loved that little shitbox. I drove it until around 94 I think.
My sister drove hers from Akron Ohio to Riverside Ca. and back fully loaded with all her junk stuffed inside and strapped to the top. Hilarious!
I worked at a Yugo dealer. We had a joke on how it got it's name. The first driver said I don't want to drive it You-Go drive it! It had a HIGH likelihood of FATAL injury and 35 miles per hour! I would NOT go on test drives with people, I took their info, made a copy of the drivers license, checked insurance, slapped a dealer plate on it and said "see you IF you get back!" You folks took your lives into your hands driving that car!
I got pulled over in my 89 Yugo in Oct 91 for doing 117 in a 65. I had bee on my way to the hospital at WPAFB in Ohio after flying home from HI while in the Army. I told the officer what was going on and he said follow him and he led the way at 100mph for about 8 miles. Drove great.
I worked at a Chevrolet dealership back when thos came out and we had a Yugo lot and I have a great story. I had to deliver one of these to a local bank and just getting it up over the curb to put it in their lobby for a car loan promotion burnt out the clutch and the entire bank smelled like that for a week. 😂😂 They had to send a tow truck to bring it back to the lot because it refused to move under it's own power. Thanks for bringing back that great memory Jeff Dunham.
Whenever the car warranty scammers call me and try to sell me a warranty, I always tell them I have a 1988 Yugo.
Yugos like Trabants were laughable when they 1st came out. Now , they are sought after by collectors.
I"ll stick with my 1993 Full size chevy truck, it has over 450,000 miles on it, still going strong and has never messed up on me yet. Changed oil every 3,000 miles, had a certified Mechanic check everything and he couldn't believe how great of shape the truck and motor was in. Again, I'll stay with my Chevy.
Nothing can be worse than then the 70's MG, Pinto or Gremlin..
Jeff..strap that spare tire down or have a hold down clamp welded on
My Aunt bought one and I drove it frequently. I understand that it wasn't a high end vehicle but it drove fine. The cockpit forced good posture and never left me stiff or sore. It would almost u-turn in a zero radius.
27ish years ago i used to make those seat belts that went beesh beesh beesh lol
One year going over the Mackinac bridge the winds were so strong the yugo flew off the bridge. It was never seen again.
I was intrigued with the idea of buying one until I saw one in Dragnet ‘87.
My Mum had one. She called it the "Yugo or I go!"
Growing up I had friends with a Pinto and a Vega. Another had a Fuego and a LeCar.. Back when you could tell one model from another.
🤣🤣At least it's not a Gremlin
Early in my career as a mechanic I worked at a Toyota/Yugo dealership in San Luis Obispo California, us mechanic’s would argue over who would test drive it after repairs and keep in mind the national speed limit was 55 MPH. Our parts department was the 3 unsold Yugos parked in the back. The joke was “ How do you double the value of a YUGO” Fill it with gas.
Walter...."this rides rougher than my wife!" Achmed......"drive this car right or I KILL YOU!"........Bubba J. "I can't drink beer in this car! I keep spilling it!" Peanut......"hey why don't you let Jose drive this stupid thing!" Jose........."Jose is driving the stick"
(Q) How do you double the price of a Yugo. (A) Fill it with fuel. (Q) How do you triple the price of a Yugo. (A) Put valve caps on it. Q What do you call a convertible Yugo. (A) A skip.
A friend on mine was on his way to work and his Yugo was only a week old. He had been bragging about the great gas mileage he was getting. He came in late really pissed off and his excuse was the drivers door fell off while on the freeway. He had to pull over and on foot dodge traffic to retrieve it. The dealer refused to believe it just fell off and he had to pay for a new door. That was bad enough but the real pain was the ribbing and jokes at work. He found matchbox cars with a door missing on his desk, car door handles in his desk drawers, yellow stickies and notes stuck to his back warning people to watch for falling doors, on and on. There was no mercy.
I almost bought a convertable one in Youngstown Ohio. It was between that and an S-10 EL all black. I went back to look at the Yugo (it was raining) and even though it was brand new there was a puddle of water on the floor. I bought the S-10 the next day. I mean, if I had gotten the YUGo and somehow kept it, I would have a nice little return on investment. But at the time, I was just looking for a solid first new car. S-10 was a great little truck.
Yugo to the store and you wonder if it will make it there!!!!! ;-))
Respect man! All best from Serbia!!!
I remember those.
I absolutely love it!
The model line was the first (and only) world car developed by Chrysler Corporation, who developed the American-market Dodge Omni/Plymouth Horizon in tandem, following the start of the Chrysler Europe project. While similar in appearance (for the Plymouth brand, sharing a nameplate), the Horizon would have substantial functional differences from its American counterpart.
What was the cost to detail this YUGO Jeff ......$$$$ ????
The biggest thing I remember the yugo being made fun of was its overall weight when one got blown off the mackinaw bridge in Michigan in 1989.
It's the only car that can pull up next to a VW Rabbit and make the VW driver feel cool.
I was waiting for the 4 door Yugo, The Wego
My very first brand new car was a blue Yugo! I drove the 💩 out of that car! However, it was the most PROBLEMATIC car I’ve ever owned as well! Always in the shop! I remember tho after getting off of work, timing the traffic light just right, I’d race and jump a bridge and literally went airborne in that thing! Ahhh, Such great memories! Thanx Jeff FaFa for reminding me!
The reason for the "motor mice" seatbelts was that there was a federal mandate for two passenger safety devices in all cars.
And no one wanted to spend the money on airbags.
So, they went the lesser route. In all ways....
With the ridiculous gas prices these days that car is a GEM. For the price it gave you FREEDOM to go to your friend's houses, hang out at the mall, and with that small engine you could refuel it with the gas that was left in the hose and it would last for a month!
There was a Cadillac dealer in South Florida that advertised back in the day if you purchased a New Eldorado Biarritz they would throw in a complimentary Yugo with the purchase.😊
As a side note one of the comparison test by a Auto magazine the Yugo bent a push rod during the 0 to 60
Time trial.
8 years ago they created the coolest meme
We are jumping with body weight on the wrench once placed on the tire nut.
Also flip the tire upside down. That is way it should stay in there. There was a bolt that used to secure it in the engine bay. Probably the owner lost yours.
Got a Suzuki X-90? I think it was only made for 3 years. I had one for a few years, and LOVED it. I only got rid of it to get a car that would carry more than 2 people. 4 wheel drive, 2-seater, t-tops... it was great! My mother even loved it. But it's called one of the worst and ugliest cars ever made, although I thought it was cute.
Scoured salvage yards around DFW for spare door handles and window crank handles to keep on hand because they were so flimsy
I have a car that you don't see very often any more. A 1984 Pontiac Fiero with the 2.5L 4 cylinder and 3 speed auto. When I bought it the car only had 15,535 miles on the odometer.
My brother had one and he drove it from California to Louisiana. Tough little car
My mom had one and i drove it a teenager. The little thing wouldn’t die.
The person(s) in the Motorhome has to be SOOOOO embarrassed to be over powered by a HUGO. ONLY in LA/Southern California. Those poor folks are probably visiting from another state and now traumatized of Hugo power over taken their rig. They will NEVER be back to Southern Cal Area!!!🤣😜😇
Had a friend that had one that would have fasteners that would work loose regularly.
I had an 87. Bought it it new for $4000. It had a stick (3 speed w/od). Kept it 4 years and never had any problems. Only reason I got rid of it is I out grew it. (was having a second child)
OMG I drove a 1987 Yugo for a pizza company that used it as their company car. Biggest POS I ever drove...lol.
I drove 250 miles in one&moved& still drove it for years,lol..mine was blue
How about:
YUGO, You could do worse, right?
Or.....
YUGO, It's not as bad as it looks.
Or......
YUGO, at least it's not a Vega.
Or......
YUGO, A truly great value. More or less.
I'm from former Jugoslavija (now Croatia) and Yugo was my first car. 🙂
Had that same car with the optional wheel covers and rear window louvers. It was actually a decent car as far as mileage and fun to drive.
Looked at Yugos the year after they stopped production. A dealership in KCMO had several. My husband extremely frugal wanted economic car to drive...So 1 year old cars... It took 4 cars B4 we found a car that started. It was very cold weather. My 2 boys were small & backseat was too small. My shoulder overlapped my husbands (only other car that was that small was a Geo metro). But the gas mileage wasn't as good as my Chevette. *Which my kids fit in & room for groceries. And I drove my 76 Chevette 300000+ miles
And I thought I was weird for having an obsession with Vista Cruisers growing up.. and AMC's and wagons in general now. Unfortunately with all my medical issues negating jobs and the car economy being what it is now, I'll likely never be able to afford one... AMC maybe, but the gas price kills that.. best I'd do is to find a manual Mini S Clubman.
A Yugo?????
Well, we went.
Great Video !
We all know this is BubbaJ's car and after he lost his license it just sat there.
Look Jeff when these pos came out you could buy a Toyota thunder truck for $4999 and a ford ranger was $4999 as well. Now the yugo was cheap but it was also a huge piece of JUNK!! I had a neighbor who bought one brand new and did not make it to 4000 miles. Yugo would not honor the Warrenty and it sat beside his driveway for years and I had a friend in high school his parents bought his older sister one and it broke down every couple weeks they traded it off after 4 months and many many trips to the shop. So basically both of the encounters I had with that car company was that they were just junk.
...soon as he said Southern California I am out of here!
Is that the car from Wayne’s World?
Hello 👋 dear
May goodness and happiness surround you all the time, and may sadness never locate you. Which state are you if I may ask??
There's an 82 Le Car on eBay right now, Jeff.... Could quite possibly be much worse than your Yugo. Actually I believe it is the worse car ever sold in the USA.
I miss my thunderbird sc with the auto seatbelt
greetings from a german pacer-driver! grat content!
Yugo was just fine, it was a Fiat built under license. You just had to take care of it.
I had a 1984 Toyota Corolla SE sedan and it had the same style radio antenna
I would be so proud to drive a Yugo
I bought a Yugo. A VW Bug hit me Head On (Drunk Driver). It was light aluminum fole around a motorcycle. Never buy one again.
a girl in my highschool bought one. they basic but worked. big enough to fool around with 3.
Family version was named Wego
In case you didn't know it the yugo is the 70s Fiat 128 exact drivetrain and everything just the body curved out a little bit more
We had the Lada in Canada, drove to Buffalo for a concert . On the way home we went for gas but we're refused because it's a Russian car . Had to get the siphon out to get home !!
You need a YUGO shopping bag, and I have one if you'd like it. I can even autograph it for you.
"We've got to do a U-turn here."
Dude, you're in a Yugo. EVERY turn is a Yu-turn.
Well there Yu go!
@@heartofthunder1440Yu Gonna go with that now?😁
Yu go dad!
We purchased one brand new in 1991. There were several changes by that time compared your 87. The engine displacement was increased to 1.3 liters, and the carb induction system was replaced with a direct multi point Bosch fuel injection system. The transaxle was also changed to a 5 speed. We bought it for $4100, and drove it over 150,000 miles before some electrical gremlins sent it to a friend as a parts car. The only issues we had were the window cranks broke several different times, the shift linkage separated once, and the fuel pump went out 3 three times--twice under warranty. The fuel mileage, while driving over a mountain pass back and forth to work, averaged 45 MPG. Hard to argue with that, even today. Probably the best part, is that it was INVISIBLE to cops. There were several times I was bombing down the interstate at extra-legal speeds when a State Patrol going the other way flipped a U-turn and fell in behind me. Letting off on the gas and coasting down to legal speed, I could see the cop in the mirror double checking his radar, looking at the car, shaking his head, and turning off. Good times.
Do you know why the Yugo came standard with rear window defrosters? A: To keep your hands warm while you push it.
🤪🤣😜😂
The Saab the spare tire was under the hood also
How do you double the value of a Yugo?
Fill the gas tank.
Little known fact. A 4 door model was planned.
It was called a Wego.
@@midnightelectric1 there are more jokes for yugo like:
My electronics on yugo got broken.
Than other guy asks: what electronics ?
How to tripple value of yugo ?
Fill in gas tank and buy new front tires.
I guess you now know how to multiply value of yugo by 4 times.
This is good one:
In Japan, car manufacturers had sealant check: they put cat inside car, turn off air conditioning, close all doors and leave car for whole night.
If in morning cat inside car is dead - that means car is sealed well, if cat is still alive than car is leaking air.
For yugo we had lower standard: they put cat inside car, turn off air conditioning, close all doors and leave it for night. In morning if cat is insde car, than car is sealed well. If cat is gone, than car is not sealed well.
Thank you now I know why Chevys had rear defrost also. 😂😂
