      Just buy a semi-running car for $2k, that will have mostly missed scheduled maintenance. It will lead to you having to change other components, depending on it's history, but shouldn't be too bad if you buy an easy-to-work-on vehicle, like a 90s s10. Just make sure you bring somebody with experience so you dont buy a vehicle that has a blown head gasket or something a little much for your experience. I dont own a vehicle newer than 94, right now because this method is how I find cheap daily drivers.

    Thanks Scotty. Another Very Good Video. I'm a ASE Certified Master Tech. I've Been working on cars 45 yrs ,(Since I was 11 yrs but getting paid for it by 14 yrs)
    I'm kinda Surprised you let your Automatics go to 40,000 miles between Fluid,/Filter Servicing. We were told in Tech School (Automatic Trans Class) AAI that 22,000 was about the Ceiling due to fluid breakdown, contaminsnts, and hot/Cold Variations that happen within Such mileage use..
    They said key factor to long Automatics life is keeping heat down ... Ie if you over heat enhine the trans gets overheated too. Due to lines of tranny going to and from Radiator. So bypassing to a aftermarket cooler for air cooling fluid was recommended
    I Always Change my Fluid in my Automatics at 18-22,000. I've never lost a Automatic that was sound internally before I got it ... So I haven't lost one... Most of mine Have been 3 speed Torque flites as well. Which are good reliables too.

    I’d agree I’d include ZF transmissions too! They’re amazing and go from a 300 hp V6 application to 840 hp demon application! They shift better than the Ford or GM product up and down! I honestly think the auto trans is the weakest point in non FCA domestic vehicles.
    Also DCT transmissions are amazing to drive. They’re a lot more responsive than even some of the best torque converter based automatics because they don’t need line pressure to make a quick, snappy shift. Complex and expensive but very efficient (based more on a manual trans design) and very quick!

    • @seansmith9196

      I agree with you, I have a 2016 bmw 328i, which has 8-speed ZF trans. And I have 2016 Acura ILX with 8-speed Dual clutch auto. but does a torque converter. The ZF has little delays between gears, but very smooth, but DCT shifts very fast, the only problem with that particular trans is jerky shifts in the lower gear.
