Your Car Has a Hidden Kill Switch GEAUX FRUGAL: Scotty you are really hard on hybrid and I need to ask you if you ever hear of green tech auto? They greatly reduced the price for batteries. I have gen 3 batteries installed on my land, in my gen 2 Prius for 2. 6k 2015. The battery failure was my fault I let the car sit 2 weeks at a time. Daily driver rarely has the same problem. I tow with my car have taken out passenger seat to camp in my car on long trips. 2 weeks of hotel rooms has to offset the cost of the car? I get 40 mpg that cuts fuel cost in half, not to mention the range I drive nearly 500 miles and cant get more than 11. 9 gallons in the tank. I need extra money I can go delivery food and make double the average person because my cost are lower. I get most of the fuel at Sam club cutting my price per gallon usually by 20per gallon because I live where they jack the price because it cost a conventional car too much to go to Houma or Thibadeaux to get fuel. I drive for 2 weeks or more then I get fuel when I get bulk groceries. My pattern has been 12 gallons used each month last 3 months live in a small town 70380. Keep up with the good work because people think the car is too expensive to keep I can get a replacement for a song. The Lexus hybrid sells way cheaper than new easy to get a under 100k miles flawless copy for 10-15k

I live next to Cambridge, Ontario. It is great when Canadian make products because we use our earnings to buy many American products anyways. And it is also the same great thing when Americans make products because they also use their earnings to buy Canadian products. The problem is when the cars are made in China and then the Chinese dont buy as many American items as us Canadians would have bought from the U. S. Funny thing though, in about 40 years, Cambridge, Ontario will be majority Muslim. They are already moving into Cambridge now and putting up Mosques.

In 05 or 06 I rented a Pontiac G6 GT while on vacation. We took a trip to the Grand Canyon from the resort we were at as it was around 3 hours away. Especailly on the way back that night I had that thing up over 120 miles an hour before i even knew it. It was a blast to drive. But, it had maybe 10, 000 miles on it. I had 2 Pontiac Grand Ams one was an 86 and was my very first car that I got in 1999, at that point it had 86, 000 miles, the other a 95. bBoth of them were money pits. They were fun to drive but would break down to much and it sucked.

: 22 NOT A DODGE 350 3/4 TON, I HAD A SNOW PLOW RUN A RED LIGHT DECEMBER 28TH 2018 AT 1: 40PM AND SMASH RIGHT INTO ME WITH THE PLOW WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, PLOW MADE CONTECT FROM ITS SIDE RIGHT INTOT HE PASSENGER FRONT WHEEL AND SHEERED OFF THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT JUST INFRONT OF THE RADIATOR. TRUCK WAS STILL RUNNING AND JUST FINE WITH NO LEAKS OR HICCUPS OR PROBLEMS OR DASH LIGHTS FOR A FULL 30 SECONDS AFTER THAT. THIS DODGE DIDNT LIVE UP TO ITS NAME VS A FORD F-450 WITH A SPLIT V BOSS ROLLING PLOW, IT FAILED TO DODGE.

I had a new 1988 Iroc Camaro that would die in certain places like in one curve in town and at one gas station facing west on the outside of the gas pumps, in front of the probation office, and 1 or 2 other places. In the curve once I got through it I could restart it, at the other places I would have to push the car 8 or 10 feet from where it set to get it to restart. The Chevy mechanics couldnt figure it out. My wife got the car in in our divorce so I never found out what the problem was.

Yup, I have experienced this kill switch first hand, but I didnt know about it at the time. I had a front end collision with my 2007 Honda Accord. After the impact, I wanted to move my car out of the middle of the intersection, but it wouldnt move anymore (I didnt turn it off myself) as it had turned off. I noticed the hazard lights had also turned on automatically, even though I never turned them on myself

I had a 2 liter Ford Sierra estate from 1990 ( 1999 - 2011 ) and the switch was under the spare Wheel, so that when moving the wheel not too gently, stopped the car. A long time to understand what was this switch and to understand the connection between moving the spare wheel and the failure ( I replaced myself the fuel pump before remembering I moved the spare wheel a loss of money at a time I had not much )

Another subject, .what do you have to say. For the last 20 years Toyota has been trying to win the 24 hours of Le Mans endurance race. This race has been dominated by Porsche and then several years by Audi, even Bentley won one year, after that, Audi kept on winning, then Porsche returned and won two years. Finally, last year, Toyota won the race, Porsche and Audi did not compete. Please explain.
