Erik, with all your experience, I d like to hear your opinion about vehicles in general. Many others probably would as well
1. Which vehicle(s) would you recommend people avoid buying?
2. Which vehicles do you rarely see costly repairs required?
3. Which vehicle(s) would you consider the Most and Least reliable?
4. Which vehicle(s) do you find it Easiest and Hardest to work on or find parts for?
Thank you for your great videos, keep them coming!

OOOH! I saw a blue Olds wagon (I think) in the lot there! That must be the one that was on your Insty a few days ago. NIICE! My next new vehicle is coming from that era. If I'm going to spend 20 LARGE on something that rolls down a roadway, I'm getting reliability, quality, AND ease of repairs. Sayonara OBD-ANYTHING!
Nice engineering of that EVAP system, so that it draws in road silt. Beautiful, lol! Gotta love it. unless you own it.

So Eric, I bought a big nasty.
I had a mower spindle pulley that would not come off. I tried everything. I'm not a pro so I didn't want to spend as much as I did but.
One squeeze of the trigger and the pulley came right off. I think it was scared.
Looking forward to years of destroying stuff.
Yours truly.

Like I mentioned in the video folks, I would loved to have shown the rest of the process but keeping my guys in the shop going and fed is high on my priority list and it is the way it worked out on this one. I've said it before and I'll say it again. TRUST ME. there will be more rusty junk in the future to show you -Cheers!

So Eric--- If this was a regular customer as opposed to a 'used car guy', would your recommendation be to follow Nissan's guidance and replace everything or would the amount of miles on the rig determine that it just isn't worth that much work? I imagine you have conundrums such as this on occasion.

Yea is like some places do to make their doller. you come in with low oil because of a drippy plug and leave with a new valve cover gasket, oil pan gaske, ring seals and a tick in the motor from a rogue 10mm hiding in the valve train. lol

Just curious, do people in the Rust belt put money into anti-rust treatments for their cars? Is that available or doesn't it make that much of a difference?
Cheers from the north European Rust Belt of Sweden.

Be glad it doesn t need a starter like my Titan does. It s underneath the intake manifold. I can t find a mechanic in my area willing to change it so soon I ll be cussing up a storm while changing it.

I am a 77 yo retired mechanic. I have developed zero tolerance for many persons. I miss some parts of the trade, like the guys I worked with, BUT. I can live vicariously through your videos.
