The Best Christmas Gift for Car Guys in 2018 Mark H: Ah, the vacuum brings back memories Back in the early 90s (in high school at the small town local Chevy dealership, I convinced the owner to give me a summer job. I worked 9 to 5 everyday cleaning used cars. The thing is, there was a main shop where another guy cleaned/reconditioned more expensive used cars (he also prepped new cars. So I was relegated to the used car lot. The lot had a small building where the used car guy sat (nice guy, but at 17 years old, he seemed scary. So, everyday, Id come to work. get my 5 gallon plastic bucket out, fill it with soap and water, then drive the cheap used cars over (next to the small used car lot building) and wash them. Then, Id detail the inside. Because I was just a high school kid, they gave me one of those dirt devil hand-held rotary brush vacuums. It took me hours to clean the interior because that thing barely worked (like, it couldnt get out of its own way. I asked for a real vacuum. it fell on deaf ears. I think they used me for marketing (as I was outside washing as customers looked at cars. I actually wore out a 5 gallon plastic bucket because Id drag it along around the car as I washed it. Looking back, I can appreciate all the sales guys laughing as I requested another bucket. That job taught me how to be resilient - and I appreciate the experience. Id like to give back the favor, except its a chevy dealership (no buyie.

Those door panel kits look good as I have broken a clip changing a regulator with a flathead screwdriver, maybe easy to craft my own though being a cheapskate. Car vacuums never seem to have enough suction to get the crumbs that tangle with the carpet, not sure about this one. I use a household vac and a mini steam cleaner which is money better spent. The power pack looks great although I dont need one. That Foxwell NT301 is the bare minimum for my Civic 7th gen, reads codes and erases, plus a lot of other data with updatable software via a USB. The cheap scanners dont work for me and bluetooth ones that require you to download another app onto your phone dont seem a good idea.

Merry Christmas to you and your family scotty youve given me a lot of help with DIY fixes and a lot of info for buying used or new cars. I have taken this into account and will definitely stick with me for a long time, I plan on fixing up my favorite car these few months and hope it will be on your show-off Sundays. Once again thank you for the help and merry Christmas.

Thanks for all the great videos Hey have you tried these new wrench Pliers by Knipex? They are getting widespread acclaim online & lots of amazing videos. Some claims are wide bolt size range, fine adjustment & super effective grip force multiplier built in. No I do not work for them lol but would like to hear a mechanics opinion.

Christmas gift Scotty. In case you are wondering, Christmas gift is an old Christmas greeting from long ago when country folks could not afford Christmas gifts. They showed up at relatives door with this greeting. Presumably the gift was themselves.

When I dont win the contest, Ill probably still check out that Power Pack. We go tailgating and camping and Id prefer not to have to run my truck to get power. Great channel Scotty. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Scotty Great videos The mechanic who still does work for me once in a while in his spare time could be your brother from a different mother. He is wackier than you and much older too. Keep up the good work
