0.75 -> rev up your engines, today I'm gonna talk about the five best used cars that you
9.12 -> can buy, now I know there's lots of people out
11.7 -> there talking about what's good and what's bad but really, if you want to
16.22 -> learn about what used cars to buy, ask a mechanic like me, because just out of
22.02 -> curiosity I Googled, some of that advice on the internet, whoa stay away from it,
28.26 -> I even saw some that had three of the top five being chrysler products, which
33.03 -> every mechanic knows they're some of the worst made vehicles out there, to say
37.8 -> they're good to buy used, you don't want to listen to people's advice that don't know
41.77 -> what they're talking about, I hate it when I buy something that doesn't
45.059 -> hold up over time, and over the last 51 years
48.489 -> I hate it when my customers buy cars that don't hold up over time, hey I like
53.22 -> my customer I want them to tell their friends about me to say hey he's a good
57.27 -> mechanic he knows how to fix your car and it isn't always breaking down all
60.35 -> the time and he's making up stuff just to make money, so of course
63.42 -> don't listen to used-car advice from somebody say who only works on Jaguars,
67.83 -> he's gonna tell you to buy a Jaguar you know, I work on all kinds of different
72.45 -> cars, I don't care what people drive but if they want a good car
77.31 -> I'll give them advice and here's my advice on the five used cars to buy, and
81.31 -> number five is a 2012 Honda Accord, and I know some people are gonna say, hey
87.2 -> Scotty you warned us about Honda's with weak automatic transmissions, and that is
91.759 -> true the 2005 to 2010 Honda Accords with automatic transmissions have a recall
98.189 -> for their automatic transmission because it had a design flaw, but not to 2012,
103.21 -> I've got customers with 2012 Honda accords and they love the cars, from my
108.83 -> experience of my customers cars the four cylinder ones seemed to the last absolute
113.57 -> longest, some guys want the v6 s because they want more power and stuff, but they
118.329 -> do have a tendency of wearing out a little bit faster and the 4's have
121.75 -> plenty of power and get quite a bit better gas mileage, and a lot of family
125.89 -> guys love these Accords because they're zippy sporty cars, you get a four-door yeah
131.099 -> you can fix a whole family in there but it's not like you're driving around
135.01 -> in a minivan, and here you want to realize another thing about buying a
139.08 -> used car, don't always go for the cheapest price, because a lot of the reason
144.432 -> cars are cheap is because they aren't very good cars, you're gonna pay a reasonable
149.4 -> amount of money for a 2012 Honda Accord
151.511 -> that's in good shape, but hey I've seen them with three four hundred thousand
156.53 -> miles on them, so you're gonna get a lot of mileage out
159.709 -> of the things, as long as they don't already have three or four hundred
162.69 -> thousand miles on them, now number four on the lists of 2012 Ford
167.701 -> Fusion, used their often seen as an inexpensive family saloon, one of the
173.44 -> reasons this those were made when Volvo and Ford were having to get together
179.53 -> part way, the first time I ever had one I rented it when I was on vacation at an
184.05 -> airport, and I was totally impressed by how it rode, I was never really a fan of
191.01 -> the Ford Taurus myself, but when I rented this
193.69 -> fusion I was impressed, they proved to be very reliable cars too, and they
198.17 -> didn't have the transmission problems that a lot of the Taurus hand, it was a
202.159 -> pretty good move, now I mean Ford's not making cars anymore they said they're
205.39 -> only gonna be making one the Mustang and then SUVs and trucks, but the Ford Fusion
210.879 -> is a really solid built car, and since Ford isn't going to be making cars
214.409 -> anymore, you can generally pick up a used car cheaper, because when a company stops
220.159 -> making cars the value of the old one goes down, if they're still well made,
225.29 -> Ford still gonna make parts for them, hey you might get a really good price on a
228.64 -> used fusion, now number three on the list is a 2013 Honda Civic, those things were
235.3 -> reliable solid little cars Honda sure went a long way from their
239.97 -> first Honda that they sold in the United States to this Honda Civic,
244.08 -> you'd think they came from different planets if you look at both cars, a lot
247.97 -> of young people like the civics because they're zippy, a lot of guys soup them up
252.129 -> and put a lot of horsepower in there, Honda engines they can take it, but at the same
255.97 -> time they're very dependable transportation, I have many middle-aged
261.769 -> and older people, they bought civics and they love them,
264.84 -> and they would say it always starts, it never breaks
268.169 -> down, and it hardly uses any gas, and sure they hold their value, which is the
273.11 -> reason I say don't go too cheap when you're buying a used car
276.44 -> think about expense over time, that's one reason my son who I was going
282.33 -> to get him I used Tacoma pickup truck, he end up buying a new one because
285.74 -> he said, dad I'll probably keep this thing for 30 years, it's gonna cost me
289.94 -> hardly any money per month if I keep this thing for 30 years
293.53 -> so I'll just buy a brand new one, but if you're buying a used car and you want to
297.19 -> save a lot of money, hey that Civic is a great pick, yeah
301.99 -> you're gonna pay more for it certainly then a used Chrysler or used GM smaller
307.699 -> car, but it's gonna outlast them sometimes two, three, four times as long
314.11 -> with probably maybe 20% of the repair bills that you're gonna spend on those
319.16 -> cars that aren't as well made, and of course realized if you're buying used like
322.96 -> that, your insurance rates, because let's face it you buy a brand new car, say
327.59 -> it's wrecked or stolen or flooded whatever, the insurance company has to buy
331.551 -> you a new car, that's a lot of money, well they used cars they have less value so
336.88 -> the insurance is less on them too, and with the smaller four-cylinder engine
340.449 -> the insurance is less on that, because it doesn't have the big power of a v6 or
344.55 -> a v8, you're saving all kinds of ways if you get a you Civic, now number two on
349.07 -> the list of best five used cars to buy, is a 2012 Toyota Corolla, Corollas can
355.73 -> run virtually forever if you take care of them, I remember years ago a mechanic
361.261 -> friend of mine he was having a party, and they said let's see if we can blow up a
365.05 -> Toyota Corolla engine, so he emptied out most of the engine oil and that put a
369.1 -> brick on the accelerator and it was just sitting there revving, and it ran
373.699 -> for quite some time and then finally one of the cylinders blew and went bang and the
378.41 -> cylinder broke, but then it was still running awhile and only three cylinders
381.74 -> I mean the things are really strongly designed, Toyota used the Corolla
389.7 -> design on a lot of cars, that's a 07 matrix it's really a Toyota Corolla, my
394.74 -> Celica it's a 94 Celica, it's really Toyota Corolla too
399.169 -> it has the same engine, transmission, just a different body style and a little bit
403.25 -> different suspension is all, I gotta laugh these days when I get some customers say
407.419 -> I just have to get an SUV for my family, and I say my kids, two sons, me, my wife we
415.069 -> road around for years in an 81 Toyota Corolla four-door, they fit in that
420.319 -> Corolla we went all over the country in that thing, and did it ever leave us
423.729 -> stranded, no it didn't, and one big advantage of
426.979 -> buying a car like a 2012 Toyota Corolla is, they made tons of them, they sold tons of
433.12 -> them, so there are always going to be a reasonable amount of them out there for
437.52 -> sale, if a company makes a really good car but they don't sell all that many
441.22 -> of them their aren't gonna be that many used ones for sale they're gonna be hard to
444.18 -> find, but there are Corollas all over the place in all kinds of different shape, maybe
449.639 -> you're a fixer-upper, so you're gonna buy one that maybe has 300 thousand miles
454.63 -> you get it cheap, fix it up and drive it around, or maybe you don't really care
457.83 -> that much about body style, so if they didn't take care of the paint and had a
461.599 -> few dents on it, you just drive it around that way as a beater car and you don't
465.58 -> care to put any money into it, because since they made so many of them, there is
470.069 -> an insane aftermarket for those things, let's say you go and you need to get a
476.35 -> Fender, well you go to the Toyota dealer and the fender who knows what they want
479.379 -> maybe five or six hundred bucks, you can get one made in Taiwan for like $50, sheet
484.569 -> steel stamped on who cares you're just gonna have it bolted on and painted, so
489.18 -> you can get parts that work perfectly fine dirt cheap for those things, so take
493.121 -> advantage of mass production if you want a really good car for getting you around
497.69 -> hey get to use Corolla, now number one on the list is the 2011 Toyota Camry
504.55 -> which is no surprise to most people, and I know some people are gonna say, Oh
508.24 -> Scotty what a boring pick 2011 Toyota Camry, well yeah that's exactly why I
513.43 -> pick it as a good used car to buy, it's boring, you buy it it's not gonna break
518.52 -> its gonna start every time, and their still fun to drive they got more zip
523.24 -> than a Corolla does, but they're totally dependable, here again though I say, I
528.019 -> advise people buy the four-cylinder version, it's got plenty enough horsepower
531.27 -> to get you around, the 6's, hey they're gonna get worse gas mileage
535.04 -> and they will wear out faster I mean yeah okay
537.89 -> so it might wear out at 300,000 miles instead of 500,000 miles, but still it's
543.11 -> gonna wear out fast, and as an interesting fact generally the cheaper
547.57 -> models of manufacturers sell more cars than the expensive ones, but in 2011
553.65 -> Toyota in the United States sold more Camrys than they did Corollas, normally
559.54 -> it's cheaper models that sell more, but the Camrys were so well made that they
563.899 -> actually sold more Camrys than they did Corollas in the United States in 2011
568.86 -> you can easily fit a whole family in a Camry they got tons of room inside I've
573.01 -> had customers that are real tall at six six or six seven and they'd always say, I
576.67 -> can't get a Toyota I'm too big I don't fit in,
579.08 -> I said get in a Camry and sit in it and see what you think, and they did and they said,
583.4 -> whoa hey comfy car enough room for me
585.94 -> you're gonna pay a reasonable price for one of these cars, they hold their value
589.91 -> because they're so well made, but don't do like one of my customers did who was
594.66 -> looking at a used Camry and then they said, oh look I can get this Chrysler at
599.86 -> half the price and it's got a v6 engine and leather seats and all this, and then
605.51 -> a couple years later they came in and they said, we got to get rid of that
609.57 -> Chrysler what a pile of junk and what did they do, then they went out and bought a
613.7 -> used camry, so my advice on that one is, learn from other people's mistakes, if
618.82 -> you don't have to make the mistake yourself
620.47 -> hey learn from somebody else's mistake, make sure you get a decent used car
625.56 -> because there's the old saying, oh I never buy a used car cuz you're buying
628.8 -> somebody else's problems, well if you're gonna buy a camry, if it was taken care
633.91 -> of it's not gonna be anybody's problem, but of course as I always tell people
638.019 -> when they're buying a used car, have a mechanic check it out before
641.32 -> you buy it, because you can't trust anybody when it comes to buying used
645.95 -> anything, cars can be wrecked, flooded, stolen, started on fire there's all kinds
651.63 -> of things that can happen, so you want a mechanic
653.45 -> to check it out and with this modern technology on all these late model cars
657.51 -> hey when we mechanics plug our machines in, we get more history make your head
662.5 -> spin, and within an hour any mechanic can tell you, yeah that's a really good
665.97 -> car or no stay away from that one, so now you know the five best cars that you can
671.46 -> buy used if you want peace of mind, and have a nice solid reliable vehicle to
677.78 -> drive around in, so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair
683.18 -> videos, remember to ring that Bell!
