car wizard: "you probably wont sit here and listen for an hour"
Us: "are we a joke to you"
we could always pause the video and watch later
Exactly what I said
I would have, good video even though I own no fords at this time.
lets go car wizard Id rather listen to you than scotty kilmer any day of the week
😂😂😂
I would like to see a “Buy this not that” for Subaru, Toyota, Honda, Jeep, Volkswagen, or Volvo next
Subaru would be very interesting
Or Fiat: "Buy not that" :)
Flame Beats I’m talking about Honda and Toyota getting their own videos. Not Asian Cars as a whole
@@OnlyTheFinest125 Subaru: don't buy that. Same with any French or Italian car.
@@OnlyTheFinest125 Just do not get any Subaru with a CVT transmission, because they are horrible. You can get a 2008 Subaru Outback 2.5i wagon with an automatic transmission. They are totally reliable and costs less on maintenance and repairs.
I'd listen for an hour. Do a podcast with you and Hoovie
Ya I sure would I love the car wizard
No Hoovie please.
Amen
Me too
Oh yeah. That would be awesome.
I have a 92 f150 with 275,000 miles on it (4.9 / 5speed / 2wd). I know I have exceeded the value of the vehicle in repairs over the years, but ever time I look at it all I can see is everything that is still right with it. I just cant bring myself to junk the poor old girl. You're right that I shouldn't keep fixing it, but... well I love it and I want to keep it going as long as possible. You are a good man for advising your customers to not waste money, but some of us are too stubborn to let our old cars die :)
Hey car wizard, I'd sit and listen to more of your answers. Thanks for the info! Much appreciated!
As for parts becoming obsolete and impossible to find, as soon as 3d metal printing is perfected and the price comes down, you'll be able to print off your replacement parts at home.
Need a new exhaust manifold? print one out.
If the machine is too costly, you'll find stores like Pep Boys etc won't even carry inventory. If you need a new alternator? they'll just print it out.
Right now if you have a big enough printer, you could print out a new plastic intake manifold. New snorkel, most interior parts. Need a new trim ring around your door handle? Print one out at home.
There are full metal sintering machines available. They run around $40,000 and you still need to "bake" the part after it's printed. A full set up is about $50,000.00.
For those who don't know: metal sintering is where you take a powdered metal material (iron, aluminum, steel, copper) and then put it in a mold under high heat and pressure and the powder sticks together to form the part. With 3d printers though the powder is laid down and supported by fine sand. Then a flux is added and the whole thing is put into an oven to bake. The high temp causes the flux to flow around the metal particles bonding them together. Knock off the sand and voila, you have a part.
The beauty about a 3d printed part is if you have a surface that is subject to wear, like a brake rotor, you don't have to make the whole part out of harder steel. You just print the wear surface out of higher carbon steel and use iron for the rest of it.
Your doing the lords work in the automotive world Wizard. I'm sure there are thousands that owe thanks to you for saving them time and money including your day to day Omega clients. Thank you.
car wizard: "you probably wont sit here and listen for an hour"
Dominic: "yes I can, try me!"
"You wouldn't want to sit and listen to this for an hour" hell yes I do! The click 'n clack show is getting really old in the tooth. You could be the next Magliozzo. Just add some bad jokes.
They haven't produced any new episodes of Car Talk in ten years.
Too soon Remco. Lol One of the brothers died a few years ago...
hey dumass - that show ended years ago when Tome died ; all your hearing are old shows edited , ungrateful eejit
As a Ford fan, this is your best ever video, Wiz. Thanks.
On the contrary, I would easily listen to 1-2 hours of you talking through cars. Its great learning about these vehicles & problems theyre prone to
I completely agree with you on the 200,000 mile thing. Don't buy a car with over 200,000 miles and don't spend too much repairing a car you already own with that many miles.
I like your honest assessment. We may not always agree on style but I respect your honest and open approach. I like these sorts of videos peppered into your usual fare. Nice job, mate.
"The Grand Marshall of the Hooptie Parade..."
Ahhh your killing me!🤣😂😅
A podcast of you answering a load of questions would be great listening for my long van drives.
Car Wizard. You asked about future videos on specific vehicle manufacturer questions (BTW, Thank you for the Ford videos; I drive a FX4 F150 with the Coyote 5.0L V8. Love it!). My wife is partial to German cars. We have owned a Porsche Boxster; BMW 535i and now she owns a 2014 BMW 640i convertible M class (which we love). My question is: What is better moving forward? Mercedes sedans; Audi/Porsche/VW; or BMW?. I intend to keep the 640i (I think it will be a collector vehicle some day with excellent maintenance). But I will need to buy her a daily driver soon.
Wizard - show us a video on an intake valve cleaning? Mrs. Wizard's ecoboost would work as its a turbo-DI
I agree with the Wizard about the responsibility of repair, but you have to consider cost of REPLACEMENT of a car you like. Especially if you have been a good car-daddy and know that you have only one (if albeit, expensive) repair needed.
Sure, you could get another used car like yours, but you inherit someone else's problems...
Plus, new cars generally suck.
Edit to add: I say fix it, unless you run the risk of totally alienating all your friends and family over the lunacy of "loving your car too much". But then, some guys need an escape-hatch!
I have a 96 bronco with the 351w. just turned over 210,000 miles only big ticket item I've done is the trans was rebuilt. engine surprisingly strong no smoke or valve train noise. love this old work horse
I kinda like the fact the Raptor earned the name "Hooptie Patrol". Hook a trailer to it and Tyler can drive it cross country to pick up cars he purchase in other states.
Long live the 351W.🤘
I don't think parts for those are going anywhere in the next 40 years
Great advice on Emissions Pumps and EGRs, suits any vehicle and engine type fitted with them. Always store the parts if you take them off, just in case you need to put them back on.
My grandpa has a ford c max energi and I drive it here and there to clean it and service it for him and let me say I hope the future is electric that thing in Electric ⚡️ only mode is so smooth. Doesn’t make any noise or shift makes. The car feels just so refined. It’s a huge difference from when the gas engine is on. I really love ford and am hoping to get a aviator plug in as song as they come out. I currently have a 2013 mkx
You truly have a great deal of knowledge from experience. I wouldn't mind either if went on for an hour for Q & As or just a review on the most popular cars on the road (whether to buy or stay away from them). I find your channel VERY fascinating and I will be making buying decisions based on your recommendations. Keep up the very good work my friend!
Good advice. My only issue is, I have a 98 Ford Windstar Limited with 238k on it. It runs great, drives pretty good. If it needs $1.5 - $2k worth of work on it, I'd probably get it fixed. Why? I know EVERYTHING about that van, as we've owned it almost 20 years. As opposed to buying a $5k vehicle which we know NOTHING about. I'd rather take my chances with what I know. Just my humble opinion. Take care.
Agreed
I loved the 2005 mustangs! My by far favorite body style
Hmmm I've never heard a mechanic before say they would rather just have a Range Rover......
Unreliable in the past, but get a full warranty and when it breaks down you can just give it to them and drive the temporary car :-)
@@iamalwayswrite my dad had a first generation Evoque. Great car. Sadly his health failed hard shortly after buying it so he could no longer drive it himself. But I every other week or so (couldn't more often as I lived quite a distance away or I'd have done it every week) would take him out for a spin in it around the area he lived and he loved doing that.
Responsive, reliable, comfortable. Expensive of course, but for my dad, he knew it'd be his last car ever and he considered it worth the money.
Sold it on after dad died because I couldn't afford the road taxes and insurance on it, never needed more than the normal maintenance set in the book for it in the 5 years he owned it.
I appreciate you stating the value vs COR argument. I have several customers that I have told that their car has. Do Not Resuscitate order. It makes sense to keep it going with cheap patches but save the repair money for a new car as that one has a long list of developing serious problems that will put it way past its value to keep. Note: a car with classic car value is different.
Great video up here in New York when we come across the swelled lug nuts we remove them and throw them in the trash and replace them with the solid ones, just because they disintegrate up here and become very hard to remove👍
I enjoyed the graphics you incorporated into this video. It's nice to have an image to go along with what you're talking about.
I have no problem listening to you for an hour. Press on, Wizard!
Please do more Q&A videos! They’re great!!
I have not seen an all-new Q&A video for a long time.
When 19mm is too small and 20mm is too big it's time to dust off my imperial sockets.
I sold all mine in a garage sale. If it needs an imperial socket, I won't be working on it.
but a 3/4' fits a 19mm perfect ...
@@alt7488 Should be 1/20th of a mm too big... but yeah, close enough is good enough :-)
You automotive guy are luck, all metric. I work on mining equipment, depends on what part I work on body is standard but powertrains are metric... some even have both metric and standard on the drive shafts...
An old story goes like this: the Germans started using metric hardware on motor vehicles in WWII because they could work on our standard stuff or their metric with their metric tool kits, but we couldn’t work on theirs because certain jumps in fractions were too big in common tool sets. Of course sizes like 19/32 or 21/64 were come up with to solve the issue.
Good honest opinions and advice, obviously based on the experience of a master mechanic.
had a friend with 2 escapes with that 2 liter ecoboost motor. Very low mileage, both blown motors very early in life
One piece of advice on the cost of repairs vs the value of the vehicle.
Another Ford mechanic said this to me:
1) What is the cost to replace the vehicle with something newer? (in regards to F150). A new(er) F150 is going to cost 4 to 5 times what the vehicle and repairs is worth. So while the vehicle might only be worth $5000 and the repairs will cost $5000, if a new one is $40,000.......
2) buy a newer but used one. It too is going to cost you more than $10,000 and then, do you have any idea that it will run for 3 years and not cost you $5000 to repair? Do you know if the previous owner maintained it properly? At least with your vehicle you KNOW what you've done to it, what you've had replaced. How it has been maintained.
Hi Car Wizard. I have a 99 Grand Marquis with a 4.6 and has 109,000 miles on it. Should I keep it? How long will this engine run??
That is an excellent vehicle. Please keep it and maintain it very well. They last forever.
Definitely follow the advice of the guy above me. Mine is an 03 with 120,000 miles. Still runs nicely.
Yes we would sit and listen for an hour
My question is, “are you bubbles’ younger brother from trailer park boys?” Ha! Love ya ya Wiz! Great vids! Keep them going bub!
I could, and would, listen to you talk for an hour, or longer, about cars. You are the Bill Geissele of the automotive world.
Car wizard is there a fix for the airbag light on the dash in my 2008 Ford Fusion
Thank you for your wisdom, Car Wizard. I frankly don't even want to be alive when gasoline cars are extinct.
The whole issue with the lug nuts happened to me on my 2014 Escape. Ended up having to buy all new lugs that didn't have the chrome covers on them, $20 and haven't had an issue since.
It is my understanding that individuals can remove pollution equipment that they what legally , but service facilities can not. Correct/incorrect?
I'm glad you answer smart questions, got sick of Scotty answering dumb questions like " Hey Scotty My transmission went out on my NEW Chevy Cruz, should Take it back to the dealer or put in some Lucas Transmission fix?" like wtf
LOL. People really are that dumb though. We see it all the time at the dealership. People use all kinds of snake oil and "hacks" on their cars even thought the repairs would have been covered by warranty. I just don't understand it.
Ray S I didn't understand that either, because hack mechanics they call and these sleezeballs take advantage
We need more Q & A videos for vehicles that you can use for road trips and where are planning to go for a vacation, after the COVID-19 pandemic ends in the new year. I hope to see you, when you plan to visit Vancouver, hopefully in summer 2022. Thank you very much.
The latest Mustang looks like a Fusion coupe because it's platform is based very loosely on the FWD Fusion. The rear suspension is largely the AWD rear suspension of the Fusion/MKZ, just beefed up. They then designed the rest of the car's chassis around this rear end.
As someone who replaced a leaking tranny cooler line with a rubber hose and some hose gaskets, trust me, REPLACE THE FUCKING HOSE WITH A LEGITIMATE COOLER LINE. It’s not worth the money saved when it pops off driving down the road and you pump your tranny fluid out
Here in Washington State, emission testing is no longer required beginning January 1 2020. I think that's a huge mistake. A lot of people are going to ignore the service engine soon light If it's running ok. The'll just put black tape over the light.
Found a 2001 Buick Century with a 3.1 V-6 at a great price. Would rather have a 3.8 V-6. Is the 3.1 really THAT bad of a mill?
I'd love to see an episode of buy this not that for Toyotas and Volvos!
Mitch Jackson
I will say buy any real wheel drive Volvo with the 2.3 four cylinder produced between 1988-1995. I have a 92 740 with almost 470K miles on all original drivetrain. Never left anyone stranded or need a tow. I drive it daily and on vacation. Still looks great inside and out. My pick for Toyota would be the 1998 RAV4. I owned one that my ex wife drove. It was totaled in an accident at 150K miles still running strong. The weak point on them is the oil pump seal. The seal itself is under 20 dollars but the labor will make you give up your weekend to do it or about a grand in a shop.
13:00 🤔 That’s why you always save your OEM parts (no matter what it is.. not just smog/exhaust items) in case you‘re required by law (inspections) to put it back on; or perhaps when you go to sell it.
Personally I do this; despite not even living in a state that has inspections... save it all... as the Wizard says, you just never know!
👍Thanks again for the awesome content Wizard! 🚗🧙♂️🚘
a trl power air cleaner is worth more than the engine today,we wanted chrome back then
I’ve loved the new mustang since the 2015-16. I even like the new ones. And my best friend that’s a die hard gm fanboy even likes them.
Brian Schell I’ve never owned a ford but owned a lot of GM, yes the new mustang is gorgeous, how can they top it though? I’m afraid the next face lift will be horrendous.
the problem though is again with Ford's idiot engineers, the manual transmission in the GT version and weak aluminum shift forks. One day you'll be driving along and go to put it in 3rd, whoopsie, no 3rd or 4th gear. If it's under warranty they'll replace the transmission with, you guessed it, another transmission with aluminum forks. AND you'll have to wait 4 months for it because they are so backlogged.
Muskoka Mike just depends on the car and how hard you shift it generally. There’s guys that run them without a problem. The excellent 10-speed is a good alternative to avoid the possibility though
wes west I’m not worried about it personally. I feel like they’ll nail it again and just keep it more evolutionary less revolutionary
@@bschell1969 That's true about how hard you "shift" but remember, the GT was supposed to be a track ready vehicle and able to withstand the rigors of track use. I mean "track" mode isn't just a button on your dashboard lol. I know the marketing dept thinks that's all it is but labelling a vehicle suitable for track use IS NOT just a marketing gimmick lol.
If you're going to make a track car, every part of the car has to be able to withstand track use.
Ford isn't the only one, Dodge and the exploding diffs in the Hellcat are another example. Sure they built an engine with what 900 hp? made it do 9 seconds in the 1/4 mile but forgot to make a diff that can withstand the forces exerted on it lol.
The prob with Ford tho is they found out about the issue with the forks in like the first 3 months and never bothered to make the changes at that point. To solve the problem all they'd have to do is start making them out of billet aluminum instead of cast. Hell, I bet if they just cast them out of higher grade aluminum they'd be fine. Did they? Naw, they just keep on making them out of weaker material and "hope" that they can keep up.
Here in the UK it used to be legal to remove your DPF (diesel particulant filter). Every car here has to go through a yearly inspection and every year it gets stricter. It’s now illegal to remove or tamper with that
It was never legal to remove the DPF, it just wasn't checked at the MOT.
Sensible advice. Thanks for posting Car Wizard.
I had a 78 Mustang II with a 2.8 v6, and a 4 spd manual. It was a dark green notch back. I had fun with it. The 79 Mustang was the start of the new body style, which I thought was very ugly. Anytime something broke I just went down to the junk yard and pulled a replacement part. It was very easy to work on.
Wizard Thank you for sharing.
Good video - I'd listen to you all day, Wizard. How about you do a talk on Corvettes sometime? Cheers.
*Next Q&A should be about Cadillac.* Back in the day they were solid build (just like most car brands anyway) but around the 90's GM started to make them crappy I think. Are the Northstar engines any good? Are the Opel/Chevrolet/Buick rebadge Cadillacs any good (like the Cadillac cts, bls, catera). Is it still a good Idea to buy a landyard Coupe de Ville or Eldorado from the 70's or are they falling apart?
1996 Town Car: check the idle air control valve. I had the same cold ambient temperature starting problem with my 2000 LTC.
I never see any of those old mustangs anymore. I love my 03 GT. The new mustangs look like space ships, as does the Camaro. The Challenger is the only old school look still around.
@Brian Gonzalez ..yea, they do look kind of an updated version of one. My 03 is lowered with fat tires. I just like the aggressive look.
How are the Ford Fusion 3014 to 2020 engines 1.5 2.0 and small v6's
love the Q&A videos! looking forward to more!
RE, New Mustangs: I have to agree that the styling of the new Mustangs really don't pay all that much homage to earlier generations. I have owned a bunch in the past, including a '67 fastback, a .69 Mach 1 and even a 85 ex CHP car that I drag raced. However the new ones are head and shoulders above the old ones in handling and performance. I just LOVE the Coyote motor and with just a few relatively inexpensive modifications, I am currently getting a little over 450hp at the wheels out of my 2015 GT. Plus it has IRS and with the factory Performance Package and 15" six piston Brembos in the front (four piston in the rear), it handles and stops like no other Mustang I have ever driven. I might also add that I am a dyed in the wool GM guy, but when I went looking for a newer car to hot rod, even though I felt like a traitor, I went with the 'Stang and I am glad I did.
I don't understand why the BIG3 don't build '67 Mustang fastbacks, '69 Z/28's and '70 Challengers. They would make a freaking killing.
Regarding the wheel nuts. I have had a similar problem with mine on the XJS, it eventually transpired that the nuts had previously been fitted using an air tool and over tightened as a result. This has distorted the stainless steel
caps to the extent that I’ve to replace all of them. So, the moral of this tale is don't allow tyre fitters to use air tools on the wheel nuts otherwise you could find yourself well up the creek on a wet, windy night!
First! Keep it up wizard 🧙♂️
You aren't first and even if you were no one gives a shit
Thank you Mr. Wizard...I really enjoyed listening
I used to own a 76 LTD Wagon with the 400 V8. Had to replace the EGR and Smog Pump for emissions. Failed miserably with the new parts installed, got back in line, blocked off the EGR and cut the belt to the pump while they were setting it up on the dyno, in front of the Technician. With both disabled, passed with flying colors.
Got a permanent Equipment Waiver for that vehicle for my efforts, wound up putting 250000 miles on it before the drivers' front frame torque box welds failed
Would love to hear about ford odd ball cars like XR4Ti, scorpio, mustang svo, thunderbird turbo coupe
I don't know, I've spent £2k repairing a £1k car, because I've had a lot of other stuff done on it and know what's been done and it's history. I could plough that money into another car and end up with same issues.
That is true. A lot of my customers are in the same situation. You have to take into account the condition of the vehicle overall.
That lug nut socket set is impact and not chrome too. Very nice. 👍
What do you think about 2013 f350 with 6.2 gas engine
I was willing to wait an hour because your wisdom and advice is great
I was really hoping car wizard was going to give an opinion on the 3.5 ecoboost.. just wondering if I should get rid of my Explorer at 60,000 miles or not.
Can you review Hummer, 2006, 5 cyl.? Thanks
Nice work as usual Wizard, gotta disagree on the Mustang styling though, I think the current model is as good as the 'stang has looked since the 70s...
If you buy a WJ Jeep Grand Cherokee or any Jeep Stay away from the V-8 are junk. If you want a Jeep get the legendary AMC 4.0L straight 6. I've noticed that the 5.2 and the 4.7 V-8 Jeeps also have major head gasket issues.
I actually like the '87-'93 and '99-'04 Mustang look though....
Would like to see video on MAZDA Mx5 when you have time.
avoid 35/3.7L transverse mounted v6's from the newer rigs. most of them seem to have the internal water pump. ech.
And 3.5 transversely mounted ECOBOOST as well. It’s even worse on those.
Just FYI to anyone reading, the 3.7 Mustang does NOT suffer from this problem.
How about the Ford I-6 4.9L engine? What’s a good year for that engine? What Transmission combo and should I get a 2WD or 4WD? CAR WIZARD
Car wizard is wise and unbiased in his vision for the car future. Too many people resisting the death of the ICE car engine
I believe the next Q & A or Buy This/Don't Buy That edition of Saab
Daratracer1994 Don’t buy any Saab.
Always value your honest opinion.
Just found your channel. Thanks so much for the great videos. Tire shop ended up ruining a bunch of lug nuts on my 13 fusion due to the cladding problem. They ended up replacing all the lug nuts with the non cladded type at no charge to me so it ended up being a good deal all around .
That 3.5 in an the SUV to do an timing belt it's an engine out job... They could've made it better
What about ford escape 08-12 2.5 is good pr v6
The Fox body Mustang guy/girl has nothing to worry about.... if they ONLY use it as a “Track” car. Not a street car. The 5.0L runs fine, if not better, without. On a track... those 5.0 Fox body are a riot. Hilariously fun. Few car can give so much bang for the buck, than the 5.0L striped down (manual, obviously) Mustang LX. And then....you ‘Grow Up’ and get yourself a Porsche (911/924/928/944). Nothing else (no Boxters or SUVs). After all the Porsche motto was ‘Porsche... there is no substitute’. Thanks for the video.
Mine is an ‘air-cooled’. Great for our Canadian Winters.
please don't rot out these cars. Hard to find clean examples with no strut or door pillar rot
Good point. It’s not so much our snow. It is more about our long drawn out cold Fall to snow days. Or delayed Springs were our days are chilly to freezing, though NO Snow. Like early December or Mid-April... at those Temperatures an air-cooled engine truly shines. But your point is well taken... Rust is a big problem, in Central to Eastern Canada (leas so for Alberta/BC). Thanks for caring about car classics.
I would... Actually sit and/or pause and come back. Another option would be a series called CarWizaed Q/A or FAQ videos on a separate channel that you run specific to these types of videos. I have actually dumped a few other channels in favor of yours.
Thanks for being a regular guy doing real stuff for us knuckle heads..
I'm a European mechanic, and to be honest I have never seen any big problems with 1.0l ecoboost, hardly any common failures. Much less problematic than diesels from the same time
The newer Mustang adopted the EVOS concept style as did the Fusion. Which is why they are similar looking up front.
What's your opinion on the Ford 3.7L v6? I see they use it in police vehicles and fleet vehicles but it's also available on some of the Lincoln branded cars
The transversely mounted V6 is junk. Stick to the longitudinally mounted V6 engines.
Car Wizard, if possible, can you do a video on Subarus and what’s your experience with them and do you like working on them? Thanks brother. Love your videos so much!
It’s good to hear about the gen 1 2.0 ecoboost as I have that engine in my 2016 fusion
Idle air control Valve will make you need to hold the gas when cold and often won't trigger a light.
The one at 8:53 is very true. I had to help my father but using a chisel and hammer to remove the little cover off of the lugnuts for my sister's Ford Escape. I like Fords, but that was a fail
Hey Wizard love the videos.
I am in the UK and the first "mordernish" diesel I bought in around 2014 ish was a 2002 Focus 1.8 TDCI (Best car I have ever owned by the way and still regret not spending the £800 or so to fix it after 3 years of ownership) and was told horror stories about EGR valves and so the first thing I done was bought a blanking plate for it off ebay for about £4 and it still passed the emissions test here in the UK. A couple of years later I then bought a 2004 Mondeo with a 2L TDCI motor and didn't bother blanking it and when it reached around 110K miles the bloody thing would cut out when it got up to temp and had to wait till it cooled down to be able to start it. I wish I had just blanked it off when I got it.
I completely understand in the need for emissions legislation and also that it will be different in the UK and US but adding complexity to cars such as EGR''s ect is just designing a car to go wrong and cost potentially a lot of money. There is so much tech being forced into new cars these days which is sending the cost of cars up and stopping us from being able to fix them without going to a garage. I can honestly say that even if I could afford to buy a new car I don't think I would buy one now.
I now own a 195K Mile 2001 Skoda Octavia 1.9TDi non PD engine (not sure if you got the Skoda in the US but its essentially a MK4 VW Golf with a different body on it) and its awesome. None of this nonsense with unnecessary electronics in it, just a basic car that gets me around 58MPG and works when I turn the key (after a few seconds of cranking as I keep blowing the glow plug in Cylinder 4 for some reason) but it has never let me down appart from the clutch plate failing and changing the timing belt just in case.
keep up the good work.
John Boy
EGR is sadly a bad thing that has to be on modern diesels due to nox
Hi Car Wizard. For your Q&As: I have an opportunity to purchase a 2002 Dodge Durango with 84,000 miles. It has some issues that can be fixed, but the thing that has me pausing is the oil pressure on the 4.7l engine is reading too high on the gauge cluster. I know that low oil pressure can cause damage, but what about high oil pressure? Could this be a blockage, or just a bad sending unit? Thanks!
8:56 Chrysler pioneered those terrible lugnuts with the shells on them years ago. Absolutely terrible.
