rev up your engines, rosheen says good morning I recently crashed my 2017
lexus rx350 on the side, should I fix it or sell it, depends on how bad the damage
is, if it's really smashed in get rid of it, because modern cars and that's a 2017
everything's run by computers on what's called a computer bus can line
everything's run there's a whole bunch of computer modules in the car, not just
a couple and a whole bunch of them, and you wreck it bad enough and those
wires get pinched, they can have problems that no mechanic will ever figure out
what is wrong with the car, I've seen them where they get in a wreck like that and
then forever warning lights come on, something else goes wrong, you never know
what is gonna break on a vehicle, if it's really smashed in get rid of it don't
fix it, and if you obviously had it insured 2017 I hope you did, and if you get a
choice of a payout or fix it, take the payout even if it's a few thousand less
than what you think the car is worth, because they're to complex when those
things get in a big wreck there's too many things that could go wrong
Gabriel says Scotty I need advice, my aunt's getting a new car soon
she'll probably sell me her 2004 BMW 325i with
150,000 miles, anything for or against what should I look for appreciate it, stay
away from your aunt, those things are money pits, and it's now 15 years old and
it's got 150 thousand miles on it, if she gave you the car for nothing sure, you
know if you get it for free take it as a gift,
then if anything goes wrong just junk the stupid thing, but don't buy it it's worth
nothing with that mileage and that age they're almost always endless money pits,
I mean if she's gonna give it to you great, if not don't even think about
buying that car, you spend so much money it would be ridiculous, Kenneth says,
I realize you don't like Mercedes but I
bought a 1976 unimog with a gas engine, you have any
advice on proper engine maintenance, okay well then I'd actually like those unimogs
those are the coolest vehicles, I mean military use them and stuff, those
were really cool, you want to maintain that because engines that Mercedes make
cost a fortune, what you want to do is, you want to use high quality oil and you
want to change it a lot and since that's a Unimog, and if you do take it off road
and do a lot of weird stuff in it, I would change the oil every 3,000 miles
or once a year regardless, if you could find out what was previously used in oil
if they use synthetic oil use synthetic oil, now if they said they didn't use
synthetic oil, I would stick with normal oil but I would use Castrol GTX because
