Did you change out the transmission oil? Got a new one same mileage
@@AK-VII p
Scotty, maybe you can help him get the back lifted it up so the truck sits level?
Also important to note is that larger tires will give you a lower than accurate MPH speedometer reading unless it is corrected.
Your Grandson is intelligent to purchase a Toyota. Great choice, though!
Hey scotty if u disinherit him I'll take just 60% and be happy haha
“Grandpa I bought a lifted Mercedes truck” “I have no grandson”
I mean if you're a true Scotty fan you'll know that he actually thinks Mercedes commercial vehicles are good
Is it toyota ? Would have been his first question
No no “lifted Dodge Ram”
@@eliaswilson7911 “You’re dead to me!”
Jeep Gladiator
Next video “Why my grandson is an endless money-pit ”
Scotty liked the comment so he agrees lol
🤣🤣
Nah get a old jeep if you like money pits.
Tires are one third the price of the truck.
not how it works, if the lift was done right then there shouldnt be any more problems than stock. I got a f150 lifted 9", i speak from experiance
Can’t help but envy that grandson of his for having Scotty available to check out cars for him
. . or be a man and do it yourself
April 1st was a few weeks ago
@@IvanGarcia-ug7mf huh? That’s like you saying be a man and go perform surgery. You sounded so stupid there
@@Shiroyashasama not at all lmao one is a machine that you can usually diagnose and fix just by looking/listening, and reading forums online.
The other is a human body that will die if you accidentally make a mistake lol
Dropping wrench in your engine bay isn’t the same as dropping a scalpel into someone’s heart
@@IvanGarcia-ug7mf 🤣
your neighbors are like " honey! the crazy guy is yelling about toyotas again ".
Hahahaha shyt
😂😂
Imagine your grandfather asking for your keys to do a YT video on your truck. Wow, how times have changed. lol
Gotta give Scotty credit for adapting and being fearless regarding technology that actually benefits his automotive interests. Many guys would just throw up their hands in frustration and say, "I'm retiring - I don't need this.". Scotty can see the need and better still is willing to read/study/learn all about new stuff.
😂😅
My grandpa doesn't even know wtf the internet is. He will say, " you kids on the damn nets again?!"
I didn’t think much of this comment until I realized back when I was younger, this exact situation was unheard of haha
That’s his dad dummy
The worst thing in the world would be selling a car and the buyer shows up with Scotty to check it out 🤣
Unless I’m selling my 2007 Toyota Yaris
I have a Toyota corolla the price will go up
If you’re selling a good vehicle I don’t think Scotty would sabotage you
@@thedavephan Those things are sweet!
@@clearingbaffles unless it has a different logo than Toyota.
“But grandpa! It’s a Toyota!”
Scotty: understandable
Anybody else see him blow through that stop sign like it wasn't there 🤣🤣🤣
That's because he apparently blew threw either a half rack or an eighth right before recording this video, good lord look at those slits he has left for eyes and the heavy slurring, l've seen him sloshed plenty of times but boy was he flying on this one! 😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@JA-rn5qv when he first gets in the car and starts narrating I was laughing so hard
No cop, no stop
The number of times Scotty has said “cheap plastic crap” over the years...
@ 5,000 times ?
@Gator_02 do some math .. 365 days in a year. Lets go over board. 1,000 times per year. Scotty would have to be doing the show for 400 years. 4,000 times per year. Scotty is doing the show for 100 years.
Because new cars ARE cheap plastic, obsolescence. Rich pricks never own them for more then few years, then trade them in for a new one, that makes auto manufacturers make them really crappy so very little value secondhand market.
🤣and pops up the chevy cruze
Scotty: I recommend getting a good solid grandson like this one I have. Had this thing for years, works great.
You forgot reliable to.😂
I need a grampa! Awesome!
😂😂😂
He's very 'special' . . but thanks but no thanks , just take him out & leave him . . like the Eskimo do
I still need a grampa!!!
Scotty: Hops underneath massive lifted truck with the camera.
Truck: Is 2WD... 👁️👄👁️
I think it was built as a prerunner, so that would explain the slight squat and 2wd
@@thomasp692 what is the difference with a prerunner
@@thethinkingbyte prerunners are built to drive fast on dirt and desert roads, so most of them are 2wd. For an idea of what a fully built one would look like you can google trophy truck

@@thomasp692 yea that probably explains why there are king coil overs on it
Scotty: REV UP YOUR ENGINE
scotty again: WHY NOT TO REV UP YOUR ENGINES.
Also Scotty: WHY TO NEVER TURN YOUR ENGINE ON, because it wastes too much gas!
200th like 👍
If he would have bought a lifted Toyota Celica, this would be a non issue. 😂
stole my comment
It’ll look like a spaceship on tires.
That's a good one! I love it!
Use it for Rally racing
Let’s hit some trails!
“I myself went to check it out with him” LMAO imagine a dude selling his car trying to cover up the problems it has to trick the buyer and then scotty kilmer shows up for the inspection XD
Yeah, this time was the opposite, i imagine Scotty and the Seller had a good time checking this tall off road boi
'Tell ya what I'm gonna do. You take half-price for it, and I'll tell my audience you didn't do that bad of a job on it". 😉
Theres mobile mechanics that will come out and inspect at sellers location for 80-100$ save alot of grief.
@@noahdove4355 Yeah, plus nothing is more expensive that an unwanted car, if you really think about it
Man, imagine having Scotty as a grandfather. Must be awesome to have all that wisdom at hand.
yeah he should disown him for getting a lifted truck🤣
*This video really makes me miss my old Titan with a 6” lift and 35s. The thing never let me down..*
"the original guy who did this stuff didnt do that bad of a job" ... high praise from Scotty LOL
For r3al
Scotty’s grandson is about to impress the heck out of Grace Beth at Sonic tonight at 11:30pm.
😂😂😂
Only in the south lol
Gotta have the two first names lol 😂
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Grandson: "bought a dodge intrepid"
Scotty: "time to set up his graveyard"
I get a buzz from watching and listening to how passionate and knowledgeable Scotty is about his obsession! I feel this way about snowboarding and music! Pure love and dedication!
When you show a Toyota to Scotty.
Scotty: “Shut up and take my money”
Imagine trying to sell your used car and Scotty pulls up
😂
Lmao 😂
Not only Scotty but Ed Bolian right next to him
Well if you have nothing to hide . . jeez man
Scotty rolled that stop sign like it was a green light😂😂😂
That loud pack had him blurred
I noticed that too🤣🤣🤣
He looked so faded in this video 😂😂
Lucky grandson. He’s got one of the most awesome grandpas ever 💙
Yo I like how he blew straight through that stop sign 🤣
It’s a feature for Toyota vehicles (with Scotty behind the wheel ofc)
yeah just casually
I saw that too
Comes standard with every lifted truck
No cop no stop
This is why you dont give scotty a lifted truck, he starts running stop signs
I saw that too lol
No he didn't, it cut out before he came to a complete stop, you fuckin blind?
best part is, he got himself on video when he did it lol
@@KiyaWarrior sorry dude, look again, but he clearly cut the video because he ran the sign😂😂, it only cut when he was already in the middle of the road, so what you're saying is he stopped in the middle of the road and cut the video?
I thought I was the only one who seen that
Scott, I've been watching your channel for years. I love your personality and your work.
i love how scotty is just trolling his grandsons car the whole time lol!
Imagine seeing your lovely Grandfather roasting your new truck 😂😂
Its a tundra and 2wd it explains itself
"Lovely"?
At least its toyata
@@amberthomas8353 yes, lovely
@@amberthomas8353 definitely lovely
Good thing he got a lifted tundra and not a lifted chevy, imagine how mad scotty would’ve got 😂
He’s actually established that he’s fond of the gmc 2500hd trucks because they’re better built than the 1500 trucks
Does toyota use a gm v8 in the tundra?
@@therealScopolamine not toyotas
Hey now. You leave chevy out of this.
@@coreydw1 no it’s a DOHC motor related to the Lexus v8s
I wouldn’t disown him for buying a lifted truck, I’d disown him for buying a lifted 2WD truck. Tisk tisk.... I expect better from the Scotty Kilmer seed.
Lmao
@Glasspack40 you must have a 2wd silverado lifted 6 inches with glass packs like your name suggest
@Glasspack40 Since no one else answered you, I will. Lifting a 2WD is a waste of time because the point of lifting a truck is to make it more capable OFF ROAD, Scotty has pointed out why it makes the LESS capable ON ROAD. A 2WD truck isn't capable of handling any terrain that a lifted 4WD might encounter on a trail or anywhere off road.
@@jackolson8775 its funny but people lift 2wd trucks cause of the 10k discount but it is the funniest thing to see when you run across it
His grandpa taught him that when taking the 2wd Tundra off-roading all he has to do is deflate the tires and he'll have good enough traction. Keep that pump handy when you're ready to get back on the highway. It's called a poor-man's 4wheel drive system
I've never have to worry about the volume on videos when Scottie's calling out the shots...
I can't believe nobody's reached out to him to be there heype man for the latest and greatest cleaning supplies...Or whatever else they might wanna sell..
Love the energy..
If you disown him you can own me 😂😂
LMAOO
👍👍👍👍
Lol sick
Lets not go all Hollywood here . . Martin
@@benwinter2420 😂😂
Don't disinherit him ... he's gonna need all the money he can get
Best comment I've read all day
@@benwinter2420 random
I don’t know what it is Scotty but when you talk I’m stressed out. Love the content you are an excellent source of info/how to think about vehicles. Change nothing!
Nobody:
Scotty: “ My Toyota Celica “
Wonder how many miles he has on it now
If I was Scotty’s neighbor, I would keep looking out my front door and see who’s yelling so much! :-)
All the early tweekers got real real tired eventual & stopped their crap . . thankfully
I think you would get used to it by now. Lol
I lifted my truck once. Blew out my back tho
What do you mean
😭😭
means some dude railed her from behind if ya know what i mean :P my wife also loves it from behind, i blow her back out all the time
@AZ Taco if i was incorrect about you being a her then i apologize in advance
@@TheLatinoRedneckCowboy he's saying he picked the truck up without using his legs lol.
@@sillyrabbit6736 He meant he tried to literally lift his truck and he messed up his back. Don’t apologize for mis gendering, apologize for being a fuckin creep.
I know nothing or even like cars like that but Scotty has me watching all these videos he’s hilarious and makes vehicles interesting thank you 🤣🤣
Scotty trashing his grandson and at the same time promoting his never failing air pump 🤣😂
Scotty 10 years ago: *How to fix your car*
Scotty now: *My channel is gone for good*
*This is the end of Toyota*
*I might have to disown my child*
He’s learning
💀
if he bought a lifted ram, you wouldn't even let him in a 50 mile radius from your house
Right?! At least it’s a tundra 😂😂
Lmao I was about to comment something like that.
I wouldn't either
@Patty Homes and then needs a tow home, would definitely bring him closer to the rest of the family😁😁.
At least his Grandson knew better than to show up with a lifted Chevrolet truck! Scotty might have blown a gasket!
Scotty reminds me of that crazy uncle you can't wait to see at Thanksgiving dinner because you know he's always gonna have the best stories to tell.
I have a fellow Veteran friend who was an Army mechanic during the Viet Nam years. Everywhere he went his mechanical prowess preceded him. He would get sellers to lower their asking price, and he would get his friends bargains on vehicle purchases
Scotty, you don’t look old enough to have a grandson who can drive that 😂
Hell my dad is same age as Scotty and I'm in my early twenties. What is going on here?
@@AmongUs-mb4qx probably had kids in his late teens or early twenties.
If he had a kid at 20, they grew up and also had a kid at twenty, then he would be 40 at the time of birth of his grandson. Wait I’m assuming 17-18 years and he’s 60ish.
@@AmongUs-mb4qx are you the first child or the youngest or only child
Scotty should do a video on lowered trucks.
ewww thats a sin to lower a truck
@@Verifraudreports oh.. you must be from the south..
@@chrisnas1483 I’m from Texas and and have a dropped truck lol
I️ put my Escalade ext on bags
@@bitcoochie4093 yeaaaaa!👍
I love this old man I bet he saving all his TH-cam funds and still the happiest mechanic I wish he was there when I bought my first car 😂😂😂
I'm surprised he didn't mention keeping the stock upper control arms with the lift. Also, Viair compressors are the best. For a truck like that you might want a better (larger) model than Scotty's. They also come with 20' air hoses so no need to splice the wiring.
Shout out to all the real Grandfathers out there. Thank you for showing us the pleasure in working with ones hands.
"Rev up your engines," Gotta love Scotty👍👍
Love these Scotty!
😁I wish you can be my grandpa😁 thank you for making all these cool videos because of you I have been able to fix my cars you’re freaking awesome 😎 ✌️
"Cheap piece of plastic crap", **shows a chevy**, yeah that's about right .
Hi Scotty!!! Please never retire!!! 🙏🙏🙏
hello and will do!
Scotty is a national treasure man, god bless him!
As a grandson that just bought a lifted Tundra, I feel totally justified.
Scotty's Grandson: *buys a lifted truck.*
Scotty: "It's a boat"
I have a 2.5” leveling kit and 295/65r20 (34.5x11.5 ish) on my f150 and I may be biased but it’s honestly the perfect look for a truck in my opinion. Very beefy and tires fill out the wheel well but don’t look like they’re “crowding” it, no rubbing either. The level gives it a very lifted look and with the tires everyone always asks or assumes it’s lifted anyway. Classy, rugged, lifted slightly, and not too yeehaw but just enough 👌
I love Scotty, he is the best thing ever!! My favorite channel on TH-cam!
This is the content I’m here for😂
Grandson: hey grandpa look at my new truck
Scotty: who is this person I have no memory of this man
I’ve been down the lifted truck road when I had my Nissan titan. It looked amazing but the truck simply isn’t designed for it. Went through 3 power steering racks in 3 years and 2 sets of tires lasted 20k miles. Got the xterra pro4x now and happy to say I love stock height.
This is something my dad would say! I think lifted truck s are cool if done with the proper geometry/ quality parts.
At least it’s a Tundra! Haha!
Million mile engine
@@Kana0211 noticed I hit 200,0010 today on my 2011 Tundra.
Let him live Scotty 😂🤣😂 we all make mistakes 😂🤣😂
Should of bought a Chevy
@@RaulMartinez-bw9mf 1999 Cadillac Escalade, currently with Over 300000 miles. Everything clean and original.
We Just Gonna ignore the fact he blew past that stop sign?
Nah that’s how we drive in Tennessee
A lifted truck with street tires, your grandson is a street princess. Good job!
How did he find a 2012 tundra for $7,500! Congrats on the amazing deal
Its a decent price but considering its 2wd with 200k seems reasonable. At least here in Canada, ive been looking at them for a year now. Technically here you can’t certify it lifted unless you “know somebody” as well as the cracked windshield and modified bumpers. Wouldn’t supposed to “pass” a safety.
Its a nice truck though 👍🏻
@@bucknutty7593 its still a good deal. I think the owner could have probably asked for a little bit more, but maybe he didn't want to wait long to sell it.
Idk..here in Canada it more than 200K miles and 2wd to go for that cheap
They go for at least double that here in Virginia. Great deal
@@Pantelifts10 the truck in the video is a 2wd and has 321,000kms. On top of that Its higher in the front than in the back and doesn’t have the factory bumpers. From what i have seen in Canada that actually hurts the value.
Things may be different in the USA
On one hand, he'll have a long lasting truck.
On another, he'll be lucky if he can make it to every other gas station
Good lord, ain't that the truth in Tennessee
I drive a 2012 Toyota Tundra for work, truck guzzles gas like it’s water
The few times I need to go off road I just use my 4x4 tractor. Having a front loader and a backhoe is a nice bonus too.
He just blew through the stop sign😂
Imagine you’re trying to sell a car and Scotty pulls up with his grandson only to offer you the lowest fair price for its mechanical condition.
You ran a stop sign 🛑 😂😂😂
No he didn't, it cut out before he came to a complete stop, you fuckin blind?
Scotty, you ran a four-way stop sign! 😂 you know, one of the best ways to maintain a vehicle is to not get in an accident!
He totally did!!!
Savage scotty
Love the video Scotty 😂 quality content hermano 👏
It's all good though. If there's any issues his grandpa is a mechanic.
Imagine scotty being your grandpa. I miss my grandpa
@@youngboyharless9769 my miss mine. He’s the reason I’m becoming a mechanic

Never a truer statement
This tundra is indentical to mine😂🤪 and mine JUST hit 200,000 miles too! His grandson is my truck twin!!!
Haven't watched a scotty vid in a hot minute. Forgot how fun this guy is
I just bought a 2006 Tundra from my grandpa... 69k miles because they go to Florida in the winter... it is a beautiful truck. Thanks for taking such good care of her, Gramps!
Did you give him true value? That's the best year for ALL Tundras!
Tired of you snowbird yankees coming down here in the winter time.
@@travism9339 someone's a little salty! 🤣
*69k miles*
Nice
The crack in the windshield must’ve obscured the stop sign you ran through.
Lifted my trucks up in 98 now she has over 300,000 miles on with 40” tires love it never selling
Are just going to ignore how clean those KING FRONT SHOCKS look on that tundra 🤤
Thought I was alone
7:12 you blew threw that stop sign🤣
I didn't know that about the AWD, where you have to replace all four tires at once. But, it makes perfect sense.
Excellent video! This is one of the top ten channels on Youtibe
I love that Power T on the rear window!
Manh this guy is savage he legit publicly said he might have to disown 😂
I hadn't thought about having to change all the tires on an AWD vehicle. But it makes sense. Good to know!
This is the absolute best kilmer toob yet !
The start made me happy because I have a 2008 that my dad left in Mexico
7:12- Evidently, stop signs are just suggestions in Clarksville. 😂
Stop Signs with White Borders are Optional in Tennessee
No he didn't, it cut out before he came to a complete stop, you fuckin blind?
i bought a tundra because of you!
you are going to need a gas station too lol, i had one drink gas like hell.

@@DenGuleBalje Have been checking lately? Dodge Rams have been doin' better.
And last I checked, I'm currently seein' Dodge Rams from the 1990s and 80s of where I stay. Louisiana that is
@@stuchbrosmnore8627 Sure if you want an old one, but right now there isn't even anything called a "Dodge Ram" it's just a "Ram" which is mostly rebadged Fiat vans and trucks.
Besides, anything associated with Chrysler and Dodge never really screamed "premium" or "reliable" anyway.
The only "cool" Ram truck was maybe the SRT-10, but even that one I wouldn't use other than for cocking about.
Toyotas SUCK
Fords ARE BETTER
My friend had a lifted 2018 Silverado Z71 and it was fun.... for sometime
He eventually traded it in for a 2018 Mustang GT 6-speed manual and he enjoys it more than he did with the truck
That's no surprise. A Z71 isn't even remotely interesting. A 6 speed GT is a lot of fun.
