#cars #livestream #life - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Don't take the video down! I love replaying these live streams on my boring commute.
They just unlist them so save the link and you can rewatch!
There's a playlist for the previously unlisted live streams too
I second this 100%
Love this format of live, just chillin, answering random stupid questions
4hrs! Mark and Jack, you're outdoing yourselves! Thanks a lot for filling a Friday evening.
Hey Mark and Jack, I'm from Australia and have to say I have been watching you guys for a couple of years now and absolutely appreciate and respect every aspect of the style of reviewing of every vehicle you drive. It is very refreshing to hear an unbiased and engineering opinion on these cars, (especially the Chevy SS/ VF SSV) that you absolutely will not hear from ('hmmm') other reviewers. I own a SSV Sportwagon which I have heavily invested in (long story). I also understand how much hard work is involved to keep bringing us this quality content. Keep fighting the good fight and will always watch now and into the future.
That encore GX video is a masterpiece. The best part is when they do the driving segment and while Jack is trying to talk about the car, mark just plants his foot for like 20 seconds and gets that pile going like 100 mph, not caring about life or death. Just a blank expression of CUV-induced stupor
Mark is absolutely hilarious, and I can see how Kids In The Hall influenced him, but holy shit, Girl Drink Drunk is six painful minutes I'll never get back
Thats what I would do at work. Blend drinks in supply closet.
Thanks guys for all you do. I'm a truck driver and I love these livestreams. Definitely, helps me kill the time, and I love shooting the shit about piles!
Yes, "regular people cars" make the most money. It is SO frustrating to see how about 99.9% of "automotive journalism" completely ignores the 99.9% of the cars that people actually drive every day. I appreciate your perspective on "normal" cars -- while most everyone else just repeats manufacturer hyperbole, and slobbers "everything is wonderful," I will never forget one of the words you use about some of those "normal" cars: "Disposable." I'm quite sure that some of those vehicles are built for longer-term durability and reliability, whereas others are just pure crap. So, yes, please help us understand which ones are worth the even modest sums of money we can spend on "normal" cars. I'm one of those subscribers who will watch every one of those.
Loved this, please keep doing these podcast style streams.
I’m thinking about buying my car with cash but financing my gasoline payments. What think thee, sires?
I dailied a 2004 Automatic CRV for several years until I totaled it last year with about 150k miles on the odo. Inherited from a family member and kept extremely clean. I LOVED that car, the first two generations of CRV had more than enough 90s/00s Japanese quirkiness, way more analog than the boaty crossovers they became in the late 2000s. Not quite a proper Japanese off roader, but way better road manners. A super fun “runabout” car for camping and super practical for some labor and soaking up hundreds of garbage Boston area miles. I thought really hard about replacing it with a manual example, but the two I found were pretty beat up and they wanted $5-7k. I ended up in a Fiesta ST and I couldn’t be happier, aside from the fact that the giant factory rims feel like the auto equivalent of high heels on the aforementioned crappy roads.
I have had one for 5 years. They are great cars.
I would LOVE to hear you guys do a pod cast one day and just stream you guys chatting about current events, cars, and everything in between
Honestly, look at Float Plane - and look at what LTT is doing for monetization. Maybe there's even some chances for collabs with their massive audience - they are starting to review electric cars intermittently, so it might be a good place 👍
I'll second floatplane.
As a viewer from the UK since the start, I have nothing but admiration for both of you guys. 👍 Looking forward to the NSX vid
Officially got an Arby’s ad when replaying this live stream, biggest smile on my face
I don't know if you want to touch the causality of gas prices arriving at where they are, but Doomberg (you can find his twitter) has amazing and digestible analysis on how gas prices got here, and why EV's can't make up for it. It'd be an amazing mashup having him on your show.
I consider myself an environmentalist, so it was hard to hear some of his analysis, but as he says, "when physics meets platitudes, physics will win." You guys are the soberest, most non-ideological car channel on youtube, and I think Doomberg is the same when discussing these subjects.
Kyle Bass's interview with Wil VanLoh (CEO of Quantum Energy Partners) from a couple days ago was even more detailed (and depressing). That interview is behind a paywall though on Real Vision.
Love your content! You guys are truly the best.
Hope you fellas get to test a Lotus Emira. It looks like an amazing sports car for prime who want the performance with no frills.
They did the Evora; it's not going to be massively different from that.
Hey mark and jack I sold my 2021 type R and got my dream car a one owner 2018 Shelby GT 350 with 10k miles in ruby red. Paid 60k this car is the best car I’ve ever driven. The type R was great this is on another level.
Best stream open ever, lol
Girl drink drunk is hilarious - I literally just referenced that skit with a friend a week or two ago 🤣🤣
Man. I wish u guys had an hour a week to do this..and or a podcast. Funny stuff.
Absolutely love these streams. You two have me cheesin more than most other content creators
I came into this podcast eager to hear the boys talk cars and business, and I left happier knowing I am not the only individual who becomes a viscous mass of perspiration under heat stress
thank you for all the amazing content for years FOR FREE. Truly the best car TH-cam channel. Keep up the awesome work guys.
Thank you for explaining simply why some vehicles (I.e. Tesla) don’t go with CarPlay or Android Automotive.
I actually finally got around to watching this and agreed with what they were saying about the Kona since I got one in 2022. Yes, there definitely is less-than-typical space in the back. I have the version with the CVT and that's annoying, but I can live with it. What really sold me about it was the back-to-basics interior and infotainment. Coming from an Outback Onyx XT that I sold back to the dealer, I was 100% done with a giant touch screen. The Kona has physical buttons for anything you need. For the occasional issues that the infotainment does have, there is a tiny reset button that you can push with a pen and that solves the issues virtually every single time. It was one of the few modern cars that I felt finally gave me control of my vehicle again and for that reason I've really enjoyed it as a simple daily driver.
Yea this was a good time..to be able to tune in, this one was a few hrs...much appreciated Mark & Jack. Mark loaded up on Superchats..it was cool to see the support for the channel. Savage 4 President!! 🤘😎
Guys, you strongly need to take a break and get a vacation, where you would lay on a beach and drink cocktails doing NOTHING.
Yes dudes! I love these videos. I watch every minute
Keep vid up I treat it like a movie trilogy and watch it in parts.
Your feelings and thoughts on the 1st gen NSX is how I have always felt. It is such a visceral experience of a car. I am thankful we had one in our family for years. It was bolt on modified, which added to that visceral feel and sound. By far my favorite car.
Man you two make me smile knowing there’s still real journalists people and no fakeness
Listening to this while I’m at work. Love this format!
When people ask questions and complain about things like the necessity of infotainment and all of the technology that goes into vehicles nowadays, they need to realize that they are an enthusiast.
There's a reason why there are not many true drivers cars made, it's because the vast majority of people on the road are not really drivers, a large percentage of them in fact see it as nothing but a chore...
The reason why you can't buy a simple drivers car nowadays is the exact same reason why no one is resisting the push for electrification.
The vast majority of people on the road are going to absolutely love it when their car makes no noise, drives for them, and has all of the whiz-bang gadget's their heart desires.
They're going to absolutely love not having to deal with gas pumps, or exhaust noise, or ICE smells.
They are going to absolutely love it when all of the fun has been removed from your daily drive.
If you're someone who truly loves to drive, you are a minority, and the world is closing in on you.
Appreciate you guys keeping the video up for a few days, it was a great listen. Just joined the Patreon hope you guys get the chance to keep working on things you enjoy!
Mark - you can clip that mic sideways, upside down, even under the shirt (with a vampire or 'viper' clip and a foam surround called a marshmellow) without getting rub. But understand that sideways on your shirt collor is perfectly good even if its sideways or upside down - in fact often times this is preferable as it can mitigate nostril air hitting the mic. Unless you have a particularily rare and specialized mic, most lavaliers are omnidirectional condenser mics - in other words they do not need to be pointed directly at the sound source in order to pick up sound effictively. so put that baby sideways right in the center of your collar, and if you need a little somethin to keep the wire from pulling your collar down, a little bit of gaf tape about 6 inches from the mic, on the inside of your shirt - approx where the cable wie naturally wants to go, will solve that quandry. Love your channel! - a Sound person.
Unbelievable Geico suit, that gecko didn't spread STD, still gets sued, WTF
Great discussion guys you should leave it up!
Great video , washed my dishes and never stopped enjoying this whole convo
Guys - thank you for doing videos like this. It just made my late-night catch up on work session much, much better.
Looking forward to more on the gr86.
Currently trying to find a premium manual for msrp 🤦♂️
That’s a premium quality video and sound. Thank you.
I owned a first gen G80 (rebadged 2nd Gen Genesis Sedan) and it was surprisingly satisfying to drive. The V6 sounded decent, the suspension was tuned by Lotus, and the the transmission wasn't amazing in manual mode, but the automatic logic was decent.
The thing was perfect because it had just enough of the boat feel, but still felt connected to the road. The dampening and how the chassis felt when you hit bumps was satisfying. And yes, the car was so quiet. I've owned many luxury cars and the G80 was phenomenal when it comes to NVH.
Hey Mark, just to say that your work (and Jack's) is really good, top notch quality and a lot of us appreciate the effort and enjoy the hell out of those long videos.
I grew up in the same small northern Ontario town as Scott from Kids in the Hall and can tell you back home in North Bay there's a particular sense of humour that absolutely influenced the show.
Hit me up if you ever want to come up over the winter for some ice drifting. I'll put you guys up in my family lodge and we'll tear it up.
LMFAO I almost spit my oatmeal when you mentioned The Kids In The Hall 😂😂😂
Also please leave the videos up because I missed it and I wanna watch it still 🙏. I think I'll download it juuuuuust in case
thank you guys for all you do.
I paid 20k for my Fiesta ST brand new in 2016, and I hit a deer 3 months later.
It sat on a ford dealership for 6 months waiting for parts.
Basically anything that is even remotely exclusive will have this problem, irrespective of price..
As somebody who has recently purchased a Honda, I really appreciate the normal car reviews. They become less boring when you consider their actual cost to most people. Important to know what you're paying for.
thanks for keeping the "reality of media" parts - give us TH-cam amateurs hope ❤
This is a fantastic video. Keep it up guys.
These are so amazing. Just hearing you guys banter about random shit in the industry is gold. Wish you guys did more of this type of content. Love your channel.
You guys, this is the ultimate tease for us Emira heads.
Dudes! Super exicted for this NSX video you got comin up. Thanks for the livestream =]
Awesome stuff as always. Don't ever change.
I wish you kept these on your channel, this was great
You guys are local so for me I'm always gonna watch your videos, and your content is 👍👍 hell I'm down the road from the Arbys....
My closest Arby’s is 8 miles away. But sometimes it’s nice to take the Festiva out and really open her up on the way.
Thank you I don't have many car friends so this fills that space.
I’ve been ghost watching for a while now and this stream officially earned my subscribe. Keep up the good work!
Mark: yes, I enjoy your review of daily cars.
I showed your Forester review to my wife before buying it. Just to prove I want a sensible car not a toy.
And yes, Forester is a tin can. I have some experience with CX-8 (Japan), and the difference in quality is huge. I a mstill happy paying 30% less, having excellent AWD for my usage, square usable trunk, good visibility and very EyeSite. Yes, I like the eyesight. The biping is a downside but the upsides are important.
The only thing are seats comfort and I would like seat ventilation. The suction that Mazda offers is amazing
Such a happy couple.
As someone who is currently having a Ford Explorer built, yes, they do give you money back for any features being removed due to chips. I saved $800 or so.
Cx-5 vs Crosstreck, IMHO it is a wrong question.
CX-5 vs Forester. These two are similar class.
I have chosen Forester because of few specific things, and I’m happy after two years.
Saying that CX-5 is great. Just the visibility, trunk practicality and I cannot rest my elbow during driving in it. Everyone has different priorities. Mine was to have a fridge on wheels made out of tin cans :)
“You make money by ads” - immediate double add after goose said it. Classic
LS7 is one of my favorite all-time engines. Looking forward to that video
Would you do the video on the x7 as a user? I have X5 M50D G05 and now I’m looking at new x7 once it releases, or the current gen, was looking at cayenne but at the similar price its hybrid version only, it drives like nothing else I tried before for an suv but for the price the porsche interior looks very cheap and I find it hard to justify. Not much choice where I live and m50d is too thirsty for city driving.
If the GRC still has the setbacks from a fwd platform (understeer) why doesn’t Jack just choose the blackwing as his next hooligan vehicle?
the toyota UX video was awsome - said the UX Programmer Guy 😉
I like falling asleep to these videos. lol
I have noticed what Jack said--all the interesting cars are unobtainium unless you're some kind of insider. It's not even worth trying.
Those old Integras were fun because you could rev the shit out of them! That's what it was all about was holding the car in the power band with the engine screaming, taking a corner at 40mph.
In Europe most states will give you back money if you put back electricity into the grid from your solar panels.
A friend of mine gets ~$350/month just from putting back electricity into the grid. With that money he can travel the world with his 50mpg diesel, and drive for free with his EV.
People don't want to deal with fuel prices bs speculation anymore.
20k 30k per ad read?
Yeah, that's us.
Oh man.
Someone’s gotta pay for his new house
I had a 955 cayenne with 400,000KM...The 6 cyl base models can be super reliable.
@savagegeese you guys are doing great, keep up the great work
I miss Turbowski and Toddd
@TimothyClark I don't know where you live, but here in california, it's like winning the lottery if you can get a WRX. Been that way for decades. I haven't heard anything about WRXs staying on lots or bad sales. Seem to be doing great to me.
I love the technical aspect of this channel. I eat it like my pancakes man🥞
Mazdas are going to be more expensive because the company said that they want to position themselves as an unscale vehicle company. The 2022 Nissan Rogue has a 1.5 liter 3 cylinder engine produces over 200 HP!
The praise for the GT350 is pretty high. Hope the next generation can continue that
Climate Town has a great video about who actually controls gas prices and its not whatever political party is currently in, but in essence, current world events and oil cartels.
Personally I enjoy car reviews that are technical and ones that are geared more towards entertainment. Both have value and both give an impression of the car in different ways. I mean I watch a lot of different car channels and car content and if they were all the same, that would kind of defeat the purpose of variety.
People just don't understand how the car market works. They buy SUVs but cry when enthusiast cars aren't produced.
You want a manual sports car? Go buy one.
When you were talking about the private unveil, I fucking knew you were talking about the Toyota Crown. 🤣🤣
I don't think it looks like a Dart but whatever lol. I'm pretty sure the second private unveil has to be the Prius. Not sure what else it could be.
not into cars but i always watch savagegeese - very informative and straight to the point, no marketing bs - lol at what he said about porsche marketing 'old traditions'
I recently turned 25 and I am looking to buy my first ever new car this coming month ( I know, really bad time with the car market). The new integra really caught my eye. I realize the car received quite a bit of hate by car enthusiasts due to a misalignment of expectations and what was advertised, especially with what people remember the Integra being in its past iterations. But, as someone who has no real sentimental value to the original and intends on buying the car as a commuter, is there more value in the Integra vs. the other entry level luxury cars (A3, CLA, 2 series coupe, etc)? I don't really care for badges and branding, I just want to get the most for a car I will probably pay 35K-45K for.
In purely the entry level luxury cruiser segment, yes the Acura Integra is the best overall value. You would have to pay north of 40 grand from the German luxury triplets to get similar value to the Integra. It also helps you get the best of what Honda offers as post purchase service (varies from dealer to dealer) and you won’t have to pay much higher for maintenance compared to the Civic.
That being said, in this price segment, the Integra is a terrible bargain. It is competing with the Civic, GTI, WRX, Elantra N, Veloster N, Stinger, Accord, Camry, and the upcoming GR Corolla. All of which either fits in the 30-40K price bracket or offer similar features to the Integra.
It’s a matter of what you are willing to prioritize and whenever or not the Integra fits those priorities.
It depends on what your priorities are. I also am a fan of the new Integra for what it is, and if you want an entry-luxury “sporty enough” car with a manual that will get class-leading fuel economy and have bulletproof reliability/longevity + low running costs then it’s really hard to do much better. It will definitely have lower running costs than a GTI or any German car.
Mustang gt hands down best bang for your buck
Thanks!
I love you guys because you haven't forgot that driving is a feel. I drive a city bus for a living here in crazy Portland and amazingly, I let {most } of them drive for me. Just like my suby, i let the vehicle do the hard work.. I own a 2010 Forester with a manual , and love the feels it gives me in corners based on throttle input. My toe dictates under-/oversteer. AND it's gutless! However, it's torque is flat and I don't have to rev it to hustle..
The cocaine dinner party kids in the hall sketch is a great one too.
@savagegeese
Can you please revisit the lexus gs350 video you ve done before for alook under the car and more technical data please
It is a great used car and there is not alot known about it underneath
Thanks for the time gentlemen.
Idea for content, basic car engineering 101, or what is adaptive dampers exactly, air suspension et. Cetera
Then he'd have to compete with others doing this as their main thing.
He has some old videos with more specific topics like that, or in a way that has his unique approach.
You guys should make a tier list of sports cars
Exactly...once I learned I wouldn't be able to go out and buy the GR C, I completely lost interest. I couldn't care less about a review video for that car at this point.
I feel the same. Why even make it if you’re not going to be able to meet demand?
I agree that it's hard to feel excited about something you probably won't be able to buy for approximately one year after release...but I'm still exceptionally glad these cars are being released. If they sell rapidly, and sell out at that, there's more of a likelihood that product planning will notice and consider more of them in the future.
Two Legends😍
*FEEDBACK:* These buying advice questions, being the main part of the livestreams, are maybe not that interesting to those like me who like these livestreams for the behind-the-scenes, personal anecdote content and such.
I don't know whether it is realisitc/feasible to separate these content types, but watching a 4-hour livestream just to find the few really highly insightful bits is not easy. (Even as a podcast the attention easily wanders off.)
I guess these questions also serve as prompts for the less car-model-related content.
Really appreciate your content. A bit more than a hour in, there was a significantly noisy distraction. Jack's socks.
1:43 in. It's not just the socks, but the unconscious repeated wriggling of the toes! I cannot not pay attention. And I don't have a fetish! Anyway, still really appreciate your work, and you're among my few TH-cam subscriptions.
For those of you watching on the 2022 June 11, please try today's NYT #Wordle, you wont be disappointed.
@LPF it is very obvious given that I'm posting it here. 21 hours left.
That’s funny
Thank you!
I’ve watched this 2.5 bhp times now lol 😂
I will say, regarding Ferrari/cars interior cracking up with age. A luxury interior with natural materials (real wood, veneered exotic wood, Connolly leather), they just don't hold up to the sun. Lambs wool carpets don't hold up to dirt. The specific example you're looking at has to be meticulously cared for to survive and retain that. Definitely not comparable to a 20yr old Toyota/Lexus interior material choice.
Its different if many of these so called exotics were exotic. You look at a 360, 458 they certainly don't have interiors that scream they were made and designed by some master craftsman. They are basically sports car interiors with some nice accent pieces. So in that regard they should be holding up. If this was some classic rolls royce or Bentley with wool and hand made alloys inlays etc sure I get it.
@@savagegeese Thanks for the reply man. I think leather dashes create a lot of headaches down the road. JLR put leather dashes in some Range Rovers and Jags around 2010+ and they could shred themselves. I think the "premium" solution they arrived at was to make it soft but a synthetic lookalike. It's a delicate balance. Regarding Ferrari I certainly agree. Other than the carpets being likely a wool blend, and natural leather on door cards/dash, and those HOTT gated shifters, not a lot to differentiate the space.
I want a Ferrari 550, but the reality is that I need a new shitty compact crossover shitbox with 90hp that is gonna be under warranty and that I can pay the monthly payments of. the sad reality is that most of us can't afford an enthusiast car and we need the info from the cars that we actually will buy. so I can really understand Mark that the crossover boxes are gonna bring the numbers up on his channel and the frustration he feels.
