Hello Scotty and all. This is my car, 2015 Chevrolet Impala light blue car. It got totaled in December 9, 2023 tornado here in Clarksville, TN by a tree that fell on it. I changed the fuel injectors myself using ALLDATA and I smelled no more fuel smell in the car. Car was paid off and life throws us unexpected things, so I am greatful to be here for another day. Still soldiering here at Fort Campbell, KY with 8 years of service.

Scotty, you're alright. You're down to earth and you have a good moral compass. Thank you for not showing people how to be dishonest. I too am very annoyed when a seller is intentionally dishonest. They say one thing, but they do something else! I wouldn't believe them to do what's right if they have a track record from the get go of being unreliable, telling me one thing and doing something else. Love your videos. Especially your candid style.

Hopefully this goes viral. Stupid manufacturers cheating their customers

This car is proof that most decent cars can last IF, YOU JUST LOOK AFTER THE MAINTENACE!!! Too bad they used crappy injectors.... Still, in Canada that 2000.00 dollar repair bill is peanuts compared to the cost of a used car that still won't pass the safety inspection.

I bought a 2007 Caddy years ago. It had I think 120,000 miles on it. Interior was like new. Adaptive cruise control and the works. It didn't even make it to the first oil change when the car was totaled in an accident. I wasn't hurt at all. The insurance guy called. Asked about the mileage. It turned out that in Miami the car lost 100,000 miles. Someone rolled it back electronically he said. They also suspected the car had water damage and is why the interior was like new. It was new. The place I bought it from when the investigator showed up was empty. No desks, no chairs, nothing inside. Those guys were long gone. Everybody knew nothing about it. For a car that had 220,000 miles on it, it ran great. I ended up with more money than I paid for the car. Could have been worse. Carfax would have helped me that time.

On those one dollar vin look ups. It’s a Chinese company that will start billing your credit card $29 every month. It’s a scam.

Better yet buy from a person you personally know. Got a little beater Honda from my neighbor and don’t regret it . Know the problems and it hasn’t let me down .

Had an Audi S6, left it with the mechanics six times for extreme gasoline smell sometimes. Finally left it with the mechanic said you use it. After two days he called to say we all thought you were crazy and then I smelled the gas. Turns out, the fuel line was sweating gas into the cabin. At first Audie said it was my responsibility. They then went ahead and fixed it no charge.

Informative post Scotty! Thank you!

Scotty, thank you for these videos. You're informative and entertaining !

I had a 96 Pontiac Sunfire 2.2 Liter OHV with 165k miles. It developed a strong gas smell as well with no visible leaks on the ground. I drove it like that for a few years. I was broke back then and couldn't afford to fix it. I sold it for $1000 back in 2/2011, it ran and drove fine like this guys chevy. oddly enough, I had 2/3 of my right lung removed because of a lung tumor and was coughing up blood in 9/2010. Sometimes I wonder if the gasoline smell from that car for several years caused my lung tumor. I was never sick that bad before, I was only 33 years old at the time and almost died on the ventilator. After recovery, now with one good lung left that 96 Pontiac Sunfire had to go. I disclosed the gas smell to the buyer and he bought it. This car in scotty's video made me ponder this.

The best thing about older cars is less electronic systems. And they last longer without any issues.

Helpful video. Thanks Scotty.

Excellent info Scotty! Thanks

Lots of good info, thanks Scotty

Thank You Scotty‼️🏁🏆

This us a great edition Scotty. Thank you.

Back in 1998 I leased a new Chevrolet full size work van (in Canada). After a month or so we noticed the speed gage and odometer was in miles. We had driven 5000 miles. The correct gage assembly should have been in Kilometres. Because it was still a new van under warranty GM changed out the speedo and odometer assembly to a new correct metric gage assembly. And thus the odometer was zero kilometres. Even though the van had driven 5000 miles.
