 Sub to his channel he has probably 1000 vids and has been a mechanic for 50 years, Ive learned more about how to diagnose and repair my car from him than anyone in my life, he is a straight shooter and knows his stuff.

Which is why I would never buy a vehicle made in Mexico. Follow Scotty Kilmer on youtube, the guy is a genius.

@THEMUGG

 You have to be joking with this reply right? First off why the LIBS comment, just address the engine comment and leave the other kiddie nonsense out even if the OP is annoying you.

Automakers have a variety of ways of engine diagnosis from using the computer and a complex computer diagnostic program where they can hook up their scan computer and run very very specific diagnostic sequences to determine almost anything or if there is a fluid issue they can drain some of the fluid and test it for particulates or they can use a boroscope and put it into the different valves and look and take video.

This isnt the Rockford Files 70s crap cars, most current cars are quite complex and can be diagnosed to a high degree of confidence.

 The devil is in the details isnt it?

@SarasotaSlim

 Tough to control the lunacy when you have a petulant child running the country. The US has never had a lower ego classless bruiser in charge who every single day whines and begs for adoration and attention, doing anything possible from idiotic name changes of bodies of water or a canal to being a laughing stock and an embarrassment to the rest of the world so much that at world events he is shunned and ignored.

 No president in history has felt it necessary to broadcast not taking a salary but then again no president in history has been a shameless huckster pimping his every whim to suck money out of his foolish followers pockets either.

He can take his salary, just quit wasting tens of millions on tee times and stop with the middle school social media obsession...that would be a step in the right direction. 

Get 100+ million in benefits, give back 400k from the kindness of your heart, we are lucky to have such a benevolent King as our ruler.

@UNIMAN

 FWIW

Dodge=Fiat=Stellantis its the same company, which is why I would never ever ever ever own a Dodge truck.

@Calde13

 I dont see the Euro overtaking the USD, you have too many bloated crappy countries in the union that drag the whole thing down. Without Germany the Euro would be at 60 cents to the dollar. If the Germans ever left the union it would go south in seconds. You have multiple dead governments in the union and few that are carrying the load and that is why the UK left in the first place.

Denmark for you and Sweden are fine, the dead weight are Greece, Italy etc the ones who nearly went BK after 2008.

@UNIMAN

 Again..

I live in AZ and have for over two decades. the border is something we deal with every single day so spare me the outrage, more than most outside of Tuc Slim I get it quite well thank you.

Your Biden narrative and explosion does not really jive with what Ive seen down here what I have read and what people have been saying, what does jive is the extremists who are aggressively seeking the opportunity to exaggerate and exploit and those people every election cycle ramp up the crazy and act kind of like you have. What I find an emergency is tuition loans and the inflation that college students have faced for three decades and the burden it places on those seeking opportunities to get good jobs, that also includes trade schools because those are not free either. We want an educated and functioning population but we will do nothing to stop the price ramping and the anchor it puts on people for decades after finishing school.

What you will maybe never end up realizing because you are a partisan zealot and are bent on forwarding your political agendas is that the border could be completely open and free, people could come and go...the border could be a lock down max prison wall with ZERO border concerns and guess what, nothing changes in your life and nothing improves in society. The law of averages and history prove that your contention and ranting is baloney because all groups of people have a segment who are lousy a segment who will seek to sell and manufacture drugs a segment who kill innocent people a segment who have no value for anyone but themselves, this is human nature. You are so fixated on the outliers and the lunacy of your own party that you completely lose a grip on the concept of human nature and unless you want to have a 100% overhaul of our freedoms and rights and get extremely restrictive say like Japan then NOTHING WILL CHANGE with a stupid wall or a closed border. 

@Raiders22

 Dealing with it cannot come from taxing other countries, we are not a manufacturing economy and we have carried trade imbalances for decades, thus it is not an emergency. The border has been open and has been an issue for decades it is not an emergency. It would be like saying the ER is being used so the resident doctor can build a man cave because it is an emergency. We are not going to FIX an emergency with an executive order, this is a fascist power grab ploy. If your idea of solving a problem is to raise prices and inflation on the US consumer then you do not understand how to solve problems. If you think the way to stop drugs is to deport minorities then you do not understand the drug trade. 

Do you want to shore up the border? Then shore it up...deporting here and there the project 2025 way is not going to fix the border problem but hey it gets votes and it gives Trump basis to seize political power and usurp the legislative and judicial process. This approach he has is not the way to fix problems, there is no emergency.

Has Trump reduced spending and deficits, did he last time and does he plan on doing so? No and no...so your contention number three has absolutely no basis either. Your side will keep spending and raising debt levels because that is what politicians do. You just cheer the spending when your butt is in the seat and whine about it when yours is not in the seat.

Funny how you minimize deficits and spending and inflation to ONE source but forward it with another, very funny. Student loan debt is consumer deficit spending, much of the federal debt and deficits are not core high importance needs rather are partisan honey pots and vote grabs, very discretionary. We could cut off subsidies and corporate freebies so easily but I do not see Trump seeking to cut spending through PAC and lobbyist routes, the federal government could easily reduce spending and debt if we wanted to it is 100% the same as student loan debt. How would you have reacted if Biden had thrown down a Trump scheme and just poof forgave all debt and eliminated the federal department which functions for student loans? Just wiped it clean with an executive order? You would be OUTRAGED...I am outraged at his dictator power gab abuse through the term emergency.

 To be fair, Ford shifted manufacturing to Mexico to cut labor costs, they have not cut the prices of their vehicles to the consumer, the difference in labor cost and lost jobs has been to increase profits and they have spent BILLIONS to build in Mexico, this is their own fault and doing and if they get their fingers burnt then that is the risk/reward of offshoring production as they have.

I would never buy a vehicle made in Mexico from Ford or Stellantis or Honda or Toyota etc.

@UNIMAN

 Living in AZ for two decades I consider what you said as partisan bluster, that also is not what the dictator KING power grab is about completely. There is due process and for you to suggest that due process can be removed when the POTUS alone decides is a very poor position to have as a citizen of this country. No POTUS should be celebrated for usurping our rights and our process as a country. Trump is sliding down that dictator slope and you have followed his path because you are part of the TNC party and you agree with their narrative. 

Are you really concerned about the border to the extent that you would debase and destroy due process? If so then why are you not supporting a serious investment on a very long term basis to help improve a situation you feel is deserving of destroying our due process rights? If you want the border to be sealed then seal it, we have never in the history of the country spent the time and resources to seal the border, the concept and issue is used as a power grab and vote grab we are not serious about changing the border dynamic. The investment and resource requirements are enormous and I do not see Trump plowing forward to fix the border, I do see Trump using the partisan tool to take power and validating it from this mythical boogie man like a true dictator.

@THEMUGG

 Big difference, show me where the 5-6 go outside their group to have discussion and personally attack your group, that does not happen. There are PLENTY of members on both sides who post general media partisan nonsense and unless it becomes combative who cares? The line is drawn when the insults become member to member and that is the concern. You were not boxed or banned, you just take shots at other members and I ask what is the purpose of droning NUMBING as you said content, you really do not add any content to discussion at all. You are either hand shaking one of your side or droning on about liberals and Biden, that seems to be all you have and I asked you why that is the case?

@Raiders22

 Oh to me as strongly as you give a PASS to Trump regarding his use of his fascist power grab I say the exact opposite. We are not in a state of emergency, we are a consumption based economy, we are not a manufacturing economy and have not been for decades this is due to our higher labor base and the lack of motivation from our citizens to do the kind of jobs that have been offshored for decades. We are in NO emergency, this is a power grab, fake lie and is against the law.

Saying that congress would stop a dictator is amusing it really is, nothing but pure folly on your part. The comparison of student loan emergency vs consumption based imbalance is completely the same. You see this trade imbalance since JANUARY as an emergency, I do not...many people who have suffered through higher ed inflation and higher interest rates see their personal finance as an emergency, you do not. It is completely subjective and one is no different...if you were to try and float the Bush logic (which was also false) about deporting 9-11 people and it being an overreach you would have greater support than this hilarious trade imbalance lie scheme.

@soup-can

 Oh I completely 100% disagree with you, if one legal course has standing then ALL of them do, a green card and visa are legal documents which have been validated from our judicial process and are used for varying purposes. If a judge order has no meaning in your view then what good is our legal process and in return the visa and green card is also invalid and if any POTUS wants to vaporize them, then per YOU it would be acceptable..per YOU.

Its a slippery slope saying that a legal order can be invalid and reversed from another branch, where do you stop with that line of thinking? Its also what stinks about POTUS pardons, I consider them to be equally as toxic.

Well if Trump says its an emergency then it is for sure an emergency. What a fascist moron he is.

@Raiders22

 Your answer is NO there is no emergency, thus he is breaking the law. Earlier you said that it would be tough to reverse and charge but that does not mean he is NOT breaking the law. He is going around the other branches of government using lies and deception and to me that is a crime. As I said earlier too, Trump has a long long history of distortion, lying and deception and it has cost him several businesses, it got him in legal troubles more than once and it is why NY took him to court.

There is no emergency it is nonsense and you didnt answer my question posed two times...if Biden had used the same flim flam executive order to erase student debt and give a tax credit for 20 years of payments to students saying there is an emergency that secondary education costs are out of control and it is a national emergency!!! What would your side have done if he had pulled that stunt? You would have been ranting and raving like you did during the MINI student loan attempt. This is much much worse with much worse consequences and yet since Trump is pulling the scheme you are on board. Sounds lovely.

@Raiders22

 I asked you two times and that answer is also the answer to the question you just asked.

So for time number 3- Are we at war? What is the emergency that started in Jan which warrants the use of an executive order? There is no war there is no emergency thus the premise he used to usurp congress is based on a lie and is against the law. 

Ok, time number 3, are you going to answer this time? No you wont...just hit me with the I am wrong and all your pocket experts are right and left this liberals that and whatever non-answer nonsense you can come up with.

@Raiders22

 Oy...

Far Left rant, check, dislike Trump rant check, what else did you say above that is anything more than "others agree with me" and that my view is wrong? Anything at all?

Quick question.....are we at WAR, what is our EMERGENCY? The emergency that started in Jan not some rambling schtick about trade imbalances, that is not an emergency that is a farce, that is a lie that is deception to achieve a fascist power grab. 

I left out California, you threw that zinger in there, that has to be your best retort it is that solid.

Right because you said so but what did you say outside that my contention was wrong and yours was right? You said that there is no way to challenge the King, so that makes you right?'

'Notice a theme here, you are personal and petty with your comments and you must be RIGHT, i dont care about being RIGHT or wrong, I am not going to say you are wrong but to you that seems to be the most important thing.

It seems you have a difficult time discussing differences and having a back and forth, that there must be a subservient and you must dictate the discussion to your terms and your requirements. That will not work with me.
