Can you do a video on Cargo vans for conversion to a camper?
Yep
Scotty, my aunt wants to buy a brand new Lincoln Continental. She says it has to outlast her. I tried convincing her to buy a Lexus or Camry if she's gonna spend that kind of money. But her brain is telling her there's nothing better than a Lincoln Continental 🙄😏
@@sageparsely2365 h,khhjh
Scotty Kilmer the options are Ram 2500, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, or Ford Transit! Ram and Ford are gasoline and Sprinter is Diesel! Thank you!❤️
If Scotty every finds a Toyota without freezing cold air conditioning, I'll know we're coming up on the Second Coming.
Praise him!
My dads work Toyota doesn’t have cold ac cause they took it out for bigger v6 engine
We have a 2008 Hilux at work with AC that no longer works 😢 It has been abused a bit, but still runs just fine.
Scotty's funeral instructions: The coffin must have freezing cold AC!
Probably made in Mexico

Scotty is like that cool teacher at school that everyone likes

The problem of owning a Tacoma truck, people want to borrow it all the time.
My girlfriend is always asking me to borrow my Tacoma. Still havent said yes yet. She is gonna have to work harder before I say yes. She drives poorly.
@@marcsmith1345 HAHA, I"m on the floor that's hilarious. "Welp threw her under the bus, lol."
@@marcsmith1345 My gf wanted to borrow my 2013 Taco 5 speed manual. I made her drive it first with me in it to see how she did before I signed off on it. Well, after a short drive let's just say she did not borrow the Taco. I love that truck man. It's black and the clear coat is going on the roof and hood but other than that it runs great. I did have to do 2 rust repairs with Safety Caps from auto rust detailers but that's living in NJ. Yeah everybody wants a favor when you have a truck. Just say no or you drive the truck and help them out. I hate lending any of my cars or cycles out. Too many bad results with people not taking care of my stuff.
truer words may never have been said
@@tommywallbanger If you go on craigslist, and search for "Vehicles for sale by owner", I would argue that a majority of people don't even take good care of THEIR OWN stuff, so I extrapolate that near zero people would take good care of MY stuff.
199,000? That’s barely broken in.
I have a 2007 Nissan Murano with over 206,000 miles and I drive it like a TrackHawk.
NFL YoungBoy Surprised. Usually don’t see the newer Nissan’s with 200k or more on them. I see the old Nissan’s from the 90’s get there easily.
mark price Thats not surprising. They’re expensive. My 2016 has 69,000 miles & I haven’t done anything but regular maintenance & I did brakes once on it.
John Yonker Yea I’m installing window tint on it now
Right on man. The rings are barely seated until 200,000 miles.
So basically Toyota is the best brand because they are reliable, Safe, and have Freezing Cold AC!!!!!!!
Freezing cold
And shifts like a dream
🤣🤣🤣
Heck yeah my 97 RAV4 get so cold it freezes your buggers
Wouldn't survive an emp though
It needs a little bit of modding which is machine guns and ramp.
When they ask them why they use Toyota. They reply that it’s because they’re indestructible and a lot more reliable than humveees
Look up the Toyota War.
Benjamin Gable Cool. I will
It probably needs bulletproof tires and windows to make it even more reliable lol.
It probably needs a ammo box so they don't run out of ammo lol
See Scotty knows zombies are coming
The zombies are here already. That's how the world got in the shape its in.

Have a Tacoma too. I'll keep Austin weird my way. Zombies are mostly downtown with California license plates.
Every time Scotty makes a "best car" video I get excited and I want to go buy it, then I look at my bank account and realize I have to keep my 97 4runner for a few more years. 😔
97 is a good year keep it
And your sad that you have a 97 Forunner? That is an excellent rig to build with not a lot of money! My pop's has a 95 Forunner, lives out in the desert and truck just goes and goes!
but its a TOYOTA!!!! :)
@big bee Cut out that Republican talk! Trumphead! I want my stimulus checks! Just kidding. LOL.
Still driving my 2000 Tacoma 4 cyl, automatic Extended cab, almost 195,000 miles on it and runs great. Had the original U joints replaced 5,000 miles ago and my mechanic says it will need front shocks (original) next time it goes in for an oil change. Rear original shocks are still good.
I missed the signature "ahhhh" when you fired up the japanese A/C.
Next Scotty Kilmer: Now I check the contents of his "Bugout Bag"

Another good place to stick a toggle switch is in the power supply to the ignition coil. If you hide the switch in an easy access location it isn't a big hassle to use and is another layer of protection from theft. Not many thieves will try to repair a vehicle that won't start.
I am fully for American made products but boy, you cannot go wrong with Toyota’s and some other Japanese made technology
🍻🤘🏼
Toyota's are built all over the country but for North America the majority are built in the United States, some are built in Canada and Mexico, but because Toyota keeps strict on them, they don't have the issues with the ones coming out of Mexico like other manufacturers have experienced.
Japanese make the best vehicles on the planet in my opinion. Check out the Hijet made by Toyota. You can actually get them here in America. Some guy in Tennessee sells them
Yeah, there are more "japanese" vehicles built in the US than "domestic"... US manufacturers just go to Mexico or China.
Japanese and Taiwanese are quality that's The only difference that Chinese made jets and subs are so crappy built they'll probably catch fire 🔥🔥🔥 by itself
customer to Scotty..cant wait too see it change over to 200000 miles.....Scotty.. it did but i got it on camera during test drive
2004 Tacoma SR5 Pre-Runner here. 256,000 miles and still going strong.
2:43, mentions zombies, shows picture of Bernie. Damn!
Proud Trump cultist, member of the real zombies.
Yea Scotty is Based
Mitch McConnell would have been more appropriate.
All politicians are the same and on thesa.e team. And it's not good for us.
That's the best way to describe what's coming next to the economy an "apocalypse" we haven't see yet the collapse is coming next!!
I'm downloading all of Scotty's UTUBE videos to prepare for the Zombie invasion..... ;)
good idea cause there's no use of internet those days😂😂😂
I have a 2004 Toyota Prerunner TRD reg cab. I’ve had it for 15 years and I love it. All my coworkers have traded cars 3 or 4 times and I still keep my truck. They replace vehicles while I replace tires and wipers. You can’t beat the value, my truck still runs almost like new. I’ll probably keep it forever. Not having to shop for a vehicle every few years is pure heaven.
5:05 The key is difficult sliding in ignition since he carries the 50# pocket knife on the key chain weighing the key inside ignition all the while.:35
Another fantastic video.
Scotty getting ahead of the curve for September
What's on in September man
@@noelieify the inevitable apocalypse of 2020, of course!
@@senpaiskidz4445 can you clarify?
Amazing , I will buy one soon .
Thank you again for the laugh and great spirit
These first gen Tacomas come with a sport mode button called "ECT PWR." Makes a world of a difference in acceleration for city driving, and gas mileage stays the same at 17-19 MPG. I keep mine on! ECT PWR off sucks and makes the transmission upshift gears way too early and makes an already sluggish truck more sluggish. Keeps engine in better RPM range for power.
Idk if that is really how you use that. Might want to check the manual or some forums
Scotty knows whats up! That's why I sub! 😂❤
I have a 2003 Tacoma SR5 that I bought new and it now has a bit over 100k on the clock. It still looks and drives like new. I get offers fairly often for it, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. It's now a 3rd vehicle for me and just could never think about getting rid of it. It's been truly a great vehicle! Great review!
Drives like new because you hard drive it. Lol
@@mannygonzalez4178 I ended up selling my beloved Tacoma last year. I got 17.5k for it. I paid 23k for it brand new in 2003. Last year, I moved to my home in Palm Springs, and I didn't have room for all four of my cars. I only kept one, a Lexus SC430 that I bought new in 2004. It only has 67k on the clock. It's a brilliant car with a 4.3 engine - 8 cylinders. A perfect Palm Springs car. I can't even begin to say how much I miss that Tacoma. I now have to pay for things to be delivered! Ugh! You don't realize how much you appreciate some things until they're gone. Yet, I had it for over 20 years, and sometimes change is good.
I had a '98 Tacoma base with a manual trans for years, my dad still has his to this day. I really like the front grills that have TOYOTA spelled out in white letters like Toyota once used instead of the rounded logo they use now.
That is the exact vehicle I own -- 2004 prerunner. It's bullet proof.
I have the same truck. 2003. 171,000 miles. Just bought it 6 month ago. You are a big factor in why I bought it Scotty!
How much did you pay?
I just bought a 2003 Toyota pre runner 3.4 v6,170,000 miles, i payed 9,000.
Was that to much?
Shows Bernie when he says "zombies are coming after you!" 😂
Great informative video 👏 thanks Scotty 👍
Love your show.... hubs and I watch faithfully. Question: do your neighbors ever complain about you tearing down the streets, lol? I need to know this for reasons. 😆🚗
Thanks for the awesome advice!
I have the same year and model with 256k on it. I bought it new. It runs smooth and the AC is super cold on the hottest days here in San Antonio. The only thing I’ve had to change, other than regular maintenance, is the water pump and that surprisingly was the same price at Autozone. Either way, I buy dealer parts only for my truck, they last longer. Places like eBay are full of them for this truck, love it! I switched out the headlights for new ones last summer and the truck looks brand new again!!! I don’t mean to brag but almost every time I take my truck to Discount Tire to balance and rotate my tires, some guy, usually about Scotty’s age, will ask me about my truck and some time during mid conversation will offer me “10k cash right now” (their words). I smile and tell them, I love my truck, it’s not for sale. We’ll keep talking a bit more and the guy will ask me again, “10k cash right now, my bank is down the street!” FYI, if you ever see one of these for sale and it’s in good condition, snatch it up because it won’t be for sale long! Just my opinion but I don’t like the new Tacoma’s, they are too big! My neighbor has one and I thinks it’s beautiful but mine does better on gas!🙂 Wish Toyota would bring the Hilux to the states!
Scotty, I’m really surprised at you! True, it may be only a 2wd, but this would’ve been a great avenue to explain to non-Toyota truck enthusiasts “what makes a PreRunner a PreRunner” and not just a plain and basic 2wd. What’s so cool about these trucks is that they have, from the factory, a push-button E-Locker for the rear differential! You can go quite far, given factors, in a 2wd truck with a locked rear end and that’s what these Tacoma’s prove. Great for blasting around in the sand and dirt. That’s what inspired this neat sub model; racing! Have a great day everybody.
Great video. I really hope that you do a walk around video like this with a FJ cruiser. Really enjoyed this one. Be safe and healthy Sir.
Hey Scotty - thanks for your videos. The videos are crazy, but very honest.
Here in Canada 3 year old cars have more rust then that Tacoma!
I live in Pittsburgh. One of the main reasons I hate it up here is because my cars do not last due to the rust!
gotta love it eh!?
out west in canada, cars don't rust. In the east, they rust because the roads are heavily salted
@@Slenderman63323 well said.
Same in NY.

"You can hide away in the brush!" Scotty on point!
Le Scotty: buy this truck for apocalypse.
Me: laughs in my indestructible 94 celica.
Scotty , Toyota's come with 199,000 miles new from the factory.
Only if you trade in your endless money pit.
LOVE the paint job.
I have an 04, TRD dealer installed supercharged V6 4x4 extra cab with a manual transmission I bought new. It has about 100,000 miles now but it still feels like new, Every dealer recommended maintenance has been done...the 4x4 “go cart” I bought 17 years ago is still my favorite baby!
hey Scotty, my 89 v6 5spd Nissan, 399,000 mi. runs great only 2nd clutch. change oil.filter soon as darker...NOT FOR SALE !!!
The "coming apocalypse?" The apocalypse has been here for months already.
Yeh, don't tell me there's worse to come, stop the world, I want to get off...
The zombie part is coming... wait for it...
Looks so cool. I like the granulated paint as well
Hi Mr Scotty thanks for the videos I never miss one
hello and thank you!
@@scottykilmer hello scotty can you tell me what type of coating or paint was use on the toyota? & where can I get this done at?
I’ve driven my Mercury Marquis around 4 wheel drives in snow, in CT
Most of Scotty's customers have window cracks. Window cracks are required to receive service from Scotty.
Love my 07 base model access cab. Regular oil changes, new suspension, trans flush and filter. Runs like a top.
You’re hilarious. I love you. Keep it coming.
There’s already zombies in the streets lobbing molotovs
5:19 anyone see that in there
lol yeah
Man this channel is so good
i liked the video when Bernie`s pic. came up after Scotty said Zombies. Classic. Love my 5vze BTW.
anything with freezing cold ac
That will help as the planet falls towards the Sun.
If it had an M60 on the roof, you could vacation in Portland Or.

@@drmanhattan5219 m60 is better
You have nailed my experience with the 01’ 6cyl Prerunner. Engine quit for the first time at 285k miles. Spent $3000 for repairs (fuel injector seals and other deep engine work). Began hard shifting at 300k miles cuz I never changed transmission fluid after switching to full synthetic at 80k. Replaced trans fluid two qt at a time. Now it Runs great And shifts great. 309,000 miles so far.
Scotty, once many years ago you answered one of my car questions. You are a great guy, and a true American hero
Apocalypse, never know when you might need some fenders or a basketball.
Scotty has spent decades preparing for the great Fiat/Chrysler apocalypse
I believe that already happened....twice!
Rolling piles of junk, cheap electronics, faulty dodgie transmissions. Out of Scotty's hymn book. Praised be his name.😀😃😄😁😆😅🤣
still got mine. bought it new in 2004. Supercharged it. Its been an incredibly reliable truck.
That wind you’re hearing is probably just the light bar. I had one on my Ranger and the whistling drove me insane. I had it removed and put a smaller one in the bumper.
Cute video file but if there was an apocalypse, you'd need a horse and wagon...won't be any refineries working.😁
Fair call .
For 5 years I’ve been rotating and maintaining 1000L of diesel on my property for the time I can’t obtain fuel!
It takes up some room but it make me feel better!! Also engine oil and filters!!
like how I buy rounds!! In bulk
2:43 Zombies... 😂🤣😅
2001 Taco 4wd TRD 5speed with 86K bought it new from Cabe in Long Beach. Absolutely timeless gorgeous functional truck that attracts attention everywhere I go. Love it to pieces and will never sell it.
I love that paint lolol it looks BOSS
1:26 😫 I really wanted an AWD Tacoma but hey what more could you ask than a 2WD solid reliable suv? 🔥
The frames don't rust unless you are in the snow belt and NE USA. And then, my god, they rust like crazy.
My 04 PreRunner has 370,000 miles and is still going places. Runs like a champ! I love it, and it's definitely a vehicle I will never sell. Girls ❤ kickin' up mud, too!
Glad to see you review this truck i have a 2003 4x4 std with 62,000 miles its fun to drive
I would've traded it for a 4WD one and then did the modifications.
Well since he's in Texas they don't get that much snow depending where you live. Its needed for some people and some for not. I do agree trading for a 4x4 better to have and need it and not have it.
i would have lowered and super charged it.
@@deadjoey77 Supercharging kills the iconic reliability but lowering it would be cool
My buddies uncle has an old 4Runner just like this. Paint and all.
oh yeah yeah
Love that paint job
says the word zombies and a pic of Sanders comes up.....LOL!
"It's not a race truck but let see how fast it is!"
Freezing cold AC......AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!
Hope there will be a vid on that 7th gen Accord parked alongside the street!
Had one made in Japan 2001 and sold it for 6k with 187,000 in 2016. Loved the truck. Lived through two teenage boys till they got done with college. Then I rei-inherited it. Loved the truck. Oil, gas, go. Bulletproof.
I wish my 1991 Toyota Previa, had "freezing cold air." Oh well ...
Sounds like it's your fault, not the Toyota's..
One of the best vehicle's I've ever owned. So many reasons the Previa is great, wish they still made them.
It’s all fun until the EMP hits.
old school diesels and gas engines with points will still run.
Scotty in for the clutch recommendations for the apocalypse!! I really want a Toyota Tacoma now
Love these trucks! I started with 2002 2wd, and finally bought my 2003 4wd!
is it a Diesel? an old one, with a mechanical injection pump, so that it is not dependent on electronics and the old Toyota could withstand a military EMP event?
Nah a high altitude emp would wreck it. And my car 😭
Hilux 1KZ-T mechanical pump!
EMP No Problems
The dude or dudett ain't messing around, well done
That is a cool truck
Edit: I like the flat finish
My first bought Vehicle was a 2008 Hilux 4WD VIGO with Manual transmission....I still miss that vehicle...You never forget your first!!
I just bought a 03 Toyota Tacoma with 110k miles on it. Runs like a dream!
The zombie invasion is already in full swing. Just go to store and look at all the masked zombies wondering around
Couldn't have said better myself.
Wandering not wondering
Better than laying around on a ventilator.
@@geraldmiller5260 no they are clearly wondering around. Just look into their eyes for a few seconds, then you'll see why I said wondering
I’d rather have a 12v 1st gen Cummins for the apocalypse
U can beat an inline 6 with 7 main bearings lol
How about an old school gear on gear transfer case that's not chain driven and aluminum cased like a toyota or any new truck.....
I'd go with an np205 bolted to a manual transmission....like an sm465 or nv4500
I love your videos Scotty
Changing the starter on the v6 4WD on one these is a real treat....
