what's up youtube it's your boy carvin for reg and welcome back to another video and in today's video
i'm going to be telling you guys how was it daily driving to acura for a week you know
um now if you've seen the last video i told you guys i'm gonna start daily driving it in um well
a week passed and i daily drove it i don't know if you guys can see but uh i did 254 miles this week
a lot of mild but before we get into all that i need to go get some gas because we're taking
this thing all the way down to hayward which is about i think like 35 miles away so yeah we need
some gas all right as y'all can see we're pulling up to the gas station right now for the legend so
let's go ahead and dump some octane up in here now with this car is a little bit different than
my other one um the gas pump is what a gas thing is on the left and the infinities is on the right
so
all right y'all now we got that out the way let's get on the way um so i only put 28 dollars in
this time uh because i don't plan on driving it next week and i'll kind of tell you guys why i'm
not gonna drive it next week but y'all gonna get to see it on the freeway and stuff what y'all
ain't no i don't think y'all haven't seen it on the freeway i ain't gonna lie you haven't seen
me really draw this car on the freeway now if you guys are new to my channel and don't know um why
i'm so excited to daily drive this car i'ma tell you guys why this is for all the new people that's
clicking on the video so this car has been down for months because number one it needed a license
plate they need to pass small and then um i had got a lot of uh work done to it so you know i had
got engine i got uh motor mounts i got spark plugs coils and all different type of stuff you can see
on my past videos but anyways now let's get into the video how's it been daily driving this car
now the car has been doing great i'm not gonna lie like y'all seen the process for all the people
who've been following me on this build y'all seen it like man this car was man you know it came a
long way and for me to be on the freeway about to hit 80 right now that's crazy i'd be hitting 80
all the time in this car but um it's really been a good car uh nothing bad happened to it as far as
gas mileage gas has been great in this car because it's a cruiser you know i really don't take it up
this far i really be trying to stay within 65 70 with this car i don't try to go too too fast
but um every now and then i'll take it to 80 because i gotta see what it do you know what
i'm saying i gotta see what it do but it's been good you know no check engine lights you know
uh everything has been working fine and oh and i went ahead on the smoking
now since i got to drive this car for a week i know the tendencies of this car now
so what i noticed is that if i'm if i'm idling for too long like if i'm stopped at a light um for you
know maybe like a minute or two or um or it's just sitting there the car will start to smoke
it'll start to smoke um it'll start to burn oil as you can see but if i'm driving on the freeway
like i am now the car won't smoke it's it's you know as good as gold you know and i have people
ride behind me just to test that theory out and the car doesn't smoke the car doesn't smoke
when it's just driving when it's good and i guess the engine oil doesn't burn uh when i'm driving
on the freeway and if it's not smoking because why i say that is uh when i drove this car from
to san francisco and to oakland and san leandro pittsburgh pleasant hill i was doing a lot of
stopping and going so this car was you know smoking a lot and what i noticed after 300 miles i
needed to i needed like at least a quarter oil but what i notice now you know i'm almost at 300 miles
the oil has been fine because i do a lot of freeway driving so um the oil burning only
happens is you know if i'm idling too long and i still want to get the high mileage full synthetic
oil with the oil stabilizer in this car as soon as i get a chance to get in the shop but yeah
the oil the oil burning has been pretty good it's only if i'm stopped at a light for too long which
when i go to work i'm only stopping at maybe two lights which is cool so i'm not burning
uh oil a lot so which is good so but yeah the car has been really really really good as y'all
could see man it's just been driving it drives so good now this car still needs a lot of work
still needs a lot of work still got a long way to go um i do plan on making a video of what my
plans is uh with this car but yeah it still needs a lot of work we still got a long way to go but
i'm happy with it you know i'm happy with the with the progress that it uh that has
been making and i'm happy that i'm finally able to drive my car man like i have bought this car
in march and i'm recording this video in uh in august and for all the people who don't know
i pre-record my videos so i can have consistent drops for you guys because i work two jobs
um but yeah i'm recording this video in august and um i'm just now able to drive my car man so you
can kind of you can kind of tell how anxious i've been to uh to drive this car the whole plan of me
getting this car was to daily drive it but when i met b and i met uh ajima and i met uh my boy uh
town legend they all got their legends all fixed up so i'm like shoot i want my car fixed up too so
but anyways i'll tell you all about that later i'm getting on side tracking this stuff but see look
hold on y'all like look at the legend go bro look at this hold on man we doing a little bit over 80.
look at the legend look at the legend go okay um but now i want to get into why i won't be
daily driving a car uh for the second week and the third week possibly the fourth week
what i've been noticing every time i've been going over bunts i've been hearing like this
little maniac sound especially coming from the back when i went to the shop and i seen that
it it you know needs ball joints in the frame you know i'm kind of like skeptical of really
commuting this car because i know it still needs some suspension work so um i decided that
i won't be driving it until i get you know these ball joints replace and see what's going on in
the back because i don't want nothing happening to me and i want nothing happening to the car
so i feel like the most important and irresponsible thing is to do is to wait
and make sure all the suspension is is good and tight and you know ready to go uh because of
course i don't want nothing to happen so i'll just be doing like local driving and you know
making videos and stuff like that for the time being but at least i know that the car is good
to go so when i'm able you know when i'm ready to drive it again daily drive it again you know it's
it's going to be good so i'm happy about that i just spent so much money on this car in the past
couple of weeks and try to get it running man we oh man i make a video about that too how much
money i spent since i owned this car it's been a lot but um it's well worth it well worth the
wait i'll tell you that well worth the wait but yeah i just wanted to show y'all that you know
it's driving and you know how i was daily driving this car to the car has been great
um i can't wait to drive it again when i get all the suspension and all that so more videos will
be coming soon more maintenance videos will be coming soon that's probably what you guys going
to be seeing with the legend i don't really see myself doing a slap or um any like cosmetic stuff
because i'm more so interested in getting a car to be as strong as possible and get it to be reliable
and the ultimate thing i would discuss on one of my plans with the car but i hope you guys enjoyed
this video if you guys did go ahead and leave me a like go ahead and comment below and let me know
anything let me know anything but um i'll catch you on the next video i'm out peace
