It’s another line they can add to the forms to confuse people trying to make a deal. I closed the deal on a trade-in form a company truck last year that involved trading in a truck. The paperwork was more complicated than some of the houses I’ve purchased. Also, the line item fees extras, etc BS...

If I ever see anything like that on a forum, email, facebook, etc, I can't help but think it's some scammer trying to build a rapport with the biggest sucker they can find and then get their credit card info somehow.

You might want to reach out to your contact at Honda before making the video and see if they can explain it. That should end the argument on how to interpret the owner's manual. Then the commenters can critique Honda instead of you.

I expected this sooner or later. I’m glad you deleted them before I opened the forum this morning and had to see that! It would have ruined my appetite for breakfast 😂

It's always good to have a backup. Youtube censors so many things it's pathetic and it's getting worse. I also find it kind of funny that people label Rumble as far-right. The only reason it exists is because of censorship and demonetization of selective content by youtube. If you follow...

I'm old, plain, and cheap. I don't buy merch unless it's something from a kid trying to fund a field trip or something like that.

My dream video would be one with hidden cameras in the meetings where some of the executive or board decisions are made by automakers. I'd like to know what goes through their minds and motivates them. There are a few examples of videos like this in other situations and other companies. What...

I just saw this about the bed rail reinforcements. I would agree with TheDo114. I've been through cost cutting pushes to look for things that were "over engineered" several times in my career. You always have to find something every time you go through the exercise. Engineers might not find...

Have you see what they are doing? It's not that uncommon in hilly country. In the Midwest we have lots of steep dirt roads. Not as long a haul as what they did, but I've overheated pickups pulling full loads of hay and tractors more than once at low speed. I like the test they did because I...

TFL just did that low speed towing test they are now calling the Toaster with a RAM 1500. At the end they got a low oil pressure light. I suspect it was the low viscosity oil being really hot and not making the pressure it normally would. However, they pointed out the lack of a dipstick...

https://www.autoweek.com/news/a61532276/mandatory-speed-limiters-europe-cars/ This article is a month old, but I'm just now seeing it. I'm sure it won't be long before they are mandated in the US too.

This is a great interview with Neil Gorsuch. He points out a lot of examples of how bloated regulations and laws have become over time. There is a push ins some places to scale back the sheer number of these that I wasn't aware of before. I was also a bit surprised at how few cases SCOTUS takes...

If the 6.4 is still running, get rid of it as fast as you can. It's a horrible engine and once things start to go bad, you can't fix them. They are basically throw away engines. Don't take my word for it, just do a bit of research on the 6.4 diesel and you will find out how bad they are.

Lot's of litigation will happen soon. Hopefully the cases are well thought out and don't lead to even more bad case law. Chevron deference was a "pass the buck" approach because both Congress and the courts were lazy. Let's just defer to the experts in the agencies they said. Well, over time...

It's something new and flimsy. The shock bottoms out on that rubber which pushes on the part that broke. It's not good even with that upgraded part.

That was the first ICON video I remember watching. I have no opinion on them one way or the other. The new design without a bump stop looks pretty bad to me though. It seems like a trend for things to be made cheaper, thinner, etc. I can't help but think about what I learned when I dug into...

In my opinion, warranties are kind of like insurance. If you want to get the payout you deserve, you have to fight tooth and nail with the provider. They will deny almost every claim the first time around. That approach saves them a lot of money.

It's a good review. I wouldn't want that truck at all. I'm into practical and cheap, not expensive and special use. After I watched it, I had a couple of other videos come up in my recommended feed. Both of them are related to bump stops and shock mount failures. They are pretty informative...

That's okay. That world is my world. 🤣

I watched one of his videos not too long ago and he talked about his background. He's been a Disc Jockey, Tow truck driver, lawyer, law professor, author, public speaker, and now youtuber. Pretty interesting fellow for sure. I also like that he won't do all those paid advertisements in his...
