Copart Walk Around 2-4-21 + Cheap 2019 Silverado!!

[@isaacbender8331]

The Ford Taurus in my opinion was the best car out of all the cars that you showed us.

[@AngryCatMan1982]

I second that!

[@evanmelton3315]

That Ford Taurus is a good one. Personally, I would bid up to $750 on it. I’d probably go up to $900 on the AT&T Ford Focus.

[@wugodi7186]

Do they start off at like 100 ? And then go up ?

[@evanmelton3315]

@@wugodi7186 Yeah the bids usually start low. For example if I do a pre bid on a car, my starting bid is usually $150, even if my max bid is like $2,000. That way I can get a better deal, usually.

[@squarespain]

Ford Taurus - will never be forgotten in the history of American cars . It is THE American CAR. It is an icon. Please get it if you can Randy. :)

[@oldfordman68]

Get the Taurus detail it pop the dent out of the fender and send it to IAA for a quick flip

[@drewbenefield2001]

I love the AT&T cars!!! That poor Mercedes C230! I hope all is well Brother!

[@eostrike]

I love my 2017 CMax energy for my around the city commutes. I average 800 to 1000 miles between fill ups. Sync 3 started in 2017 which allows Waze on the Navi, if equipped.

[@mikeobrien3744]

C-Max, top five of the 500 cars I ever owned. 125 on the clock, 60 MPG, and best for me, lots of leg room because they are tall. EXCELLENT cars. I would give $2,000 sight unseen for that CMax. (BTW: The engines last for ever because they only run about 2/3 the time they accumulate miles. There is a chassis battery in the back that needs changed. It is separate from the hybrid battery pack. Yes, it is a CVT trans, complex! The drive and hybrid charge are all in the trans.

[@torrianzhan8551]

Don't forget that it is gm very lame,a ridiculous weak frame & can't pass a safety test mostly it's the weak frame thats a concern

[@jamesdonohue9747]

Focus looks like a good one .I own a 2001 .Great little car .My max bid on it would be 1200

[@rickeaton5288]

That Taraus will drive for ever. My mom had the same year at over 150000 miles and my 2006 had 140000 miles when I traded it in.

[@brentnanita3939]

My friends has one he put over 300k miles on it. And it still runs just the hood has sun damage.

[@uo2230]

Get the AT&T Focus. I had an 06 and sold it w/ 260k and it ran great w/ 260k even. The best years are 08-11 and 05-07. These cars are money, they're like buying a Toyota or Honda, really. It's easily worth 2500 cleaned up. And that's not a base car, it's an SE.

[@rich_edwards79]

I love the little Focus. My late wife had one from new and In 2009 it was our wedding car and the one we took up the White Mountains (NH) on our road-trip honeymoon. This was an all-new model for the NA market only and whilst not as solid as the 1998-2004 Euro Focus it replaced, it was a much more modern looking and driving car. This one looks to have been well taken care of. The price is probably fair given the mileage, but I wouldn't be so worried about that given it's a fleet vehicle.

[@curtiscarpenter7423]

I had a 1997 ford Taurus. I love it. It was really good in snow.

[@brian5o]

I would love to see you pick up the Focus and Taurus, Randy. Repaint the the Focus back white, maybe tint the windows and sell it. With the Taurus, replace and paint, if needed the fender, polish the rest of the car out and sell it. I love both Tauruses and Foci because they're pretty simple cars, not a lot of things to go wrong and are great simple commuter cars.

[@KNeinVagonOfficial]

Honestly The AT&T Focus and Taurus are great cars. I would personally get either the Focus or the Taurus or even both. They both seem like they run great no problems which is awesome. I'd love to see both of those on the channel.

[@AngryCatMan1982]

Please don't pass up on the '98 Taurus! It's a beautiful 90's survivor. I'd be comfortable at $600-$800 max for resale. The sad reality is, a 90's Taurus isn't desirable or collectible to the mainstream. Personally, I would bid $1,000. Find a matching fender send her to the Auto Spa. Afterwards, I'd rock steady that car everyday with 90's Weather Channel music playing just for nostalgia!

[@edwardautrey3671]

The BOSS radio in the Benz tells you the whole story

[@johnsample9671]

That body style of C230 is one of my favorite cars for a normal car pretty sporty, reliable and fun!

[@traybaynard8925]

Congratulations on the home randy! Blessings to you an your family. Awesome video btw

[@sterlingstauffer2915]

The 2019 chevy was most likely spike strips and then he lost control and hit a median or something; also the drivers side door was peeled backwards

[@1leggeddog]

one of my first cars was a early 2k Taurus. They are the PERFECT "road trip boat" vehicule. They will last for ever.

[@michaelhuey4187]

Randy, thanks for another great vid! I would say the Focus and Taurus would be great flip cars. The Focus if you could get ir under a grand; the Taurus for up to 💲500, especially now that you can flip them on IAA. Glad to hear about the new house MUCH closer to Copart and the parts stores. I think it would make for good content to bring us along as you fix up the bigger garage, kinda along the lines of what WatchJRGo is doing with his warehouse (only on a smaller scale). I think a lot of us would enjoy that👏🏻

[@christheboss6085]

The at&t focus looks really solid. If it doesn't go for much id jump on it. If I were to flip it i think I'd spend a tiny bit extra and replace the trunk lid with one that doesn't have that funky circle flap in it. The Taurus may be a score too. My mom had a forest green 98. She never had any problems with it. They're very reliable cars!

[@scottvieira3231]

The ford taurus looks great wouldn't be a bad car for the channel

[@tony_25or6to4]

The AT&T Ford is a winner. Good cheap commuter car.

[@jimmcdonald9467]

that ford focus would make a great flip car it definatly worth it for the right price

[@thomaslibonati]

I had an 05 C240. Had the same issue with the headliner coming off the sunroof and I re-did it. Also had a broken driver door handle. Fixed both.

[@thevacdude]

The Focus I'd drive, good cars, especially since this was an AT&T car, so it was serviced. For sure I'd drive that Taurus, this one is an SE comfort, identified by the console shifter, 24 valve V6, auto climate control, and aluminum wheels. Thanks for the video, Randy.

[@johnvickers574]

Wow randy I can't believe the newer cars and truck didn't sound as good as the ford Taurus great video mate keep it going

[@LWood00822]

I have an ‘09 focus that’s almost identical to that! It’s been great to me as my first car for work and college! That focus is definitely a steal, depending on the price

[@jamespn]

The Avatar looks cool Randy, it’ll make for some great merch.

[@Alco244]

Both the Taurus and Focus seem like decent runners for the right price.

If I did this, it would involve hotboxing each car in the yard there. There would be adventure stories told about the history of each car amidst a heavy interior cloud, while the important radio console would be dialled in for ambience, playing original music via Bluetooth. 🚗

[@garysimonson9593]

Driven a lot of those Taurus, had two of them with the 24v Duratec 3.0 - love that engine. I would get that fender repaired and painted, buff the rest of it - done.

[@JrZCarZ]

Pick up that Taurus Randy! I had 3 Sables and they were great cars! My 2001 Sable Wagon was a Duratec with 220k on it and was the longest I've ever owned a car (a little over 7.5 years). They sell quick too.

Bummed you had the issues with the C-Max. I’ve had mine for 5 years and have put 120k miles on it. It’s been a great car and I love how roomy it is for how small the car’s footprint. It’s a great car if you ever see another!

[@shahabhaider5803]

Randy buy the AT&T Ford Focus. 300 bucks is a great deal. The car is in excellent shape.

That noise on the Ford is the transmission my mom has one same year transmission started making that noise and started shifting hard now it’s getting replaced

[@skotatnite]

I’m in Australia and guys your all are so lucky Your cars are amazing

[@keithmason9342]

My thought on the Chevy truck was that it may have been a theft recovery after a police chase and crash. I don't think you would go wrong on the Ford Focus. You could probably make a profit on that one. Good little daily driver. The Mercedes looks like it was rode hard and put away wet. No bueno! The Ford c-max sounds like trouble. That coupled with the hail damage would make me walk away. The Ford Taurus looks like a good candidate. Good condition other than the fender. Mileage isn't bad. Looks like it was maintained. At a decent price it's winner winner, chicken dinner. Just not a great fit for the channel. But sometimes, at the right price, things are too good to pass up.

[@oldfordman68]

That truck looks like something they tried to out run the police in and they spiked the tires

[@folk3609]

Yup typical spike strip damage they are designed not only to take out the tire but the rim also

[@fredericktarsatana9764]

That's exactly what I was thinking

My brothers X did the same thing with his truck. She was drunk and swerved from one curb to the other curb taking out all tires and rims.

[@generationscomputersystems]

Man, Randy. The moment I saw that Taurus, I said 1998 and I can’t believe I got it on the nose when you actually said the year itself. 😂. Then I saw the 24 Valve badge on it. I would jump on that quick, fast and in a hurry. A Duratec with less than 120k miles and well taken care of with just a busted fender. I take that any day. This is one I would say, “GET IT, GET IT, GET IT!!!!” I would be willing to pay up to $2.7k total for this Taurus. I’ll probably spend another $1k getting a few things corrected that I didn’t like in its current condition. As for that Ford Focus, I would also consider it up to about $900 total but it has a lot of body work to get it sorted. I’ll spend more to get it done compared to the Taurus and in the end I would enjoy the Taurus more. So for content, the Focus. But personally between the two, I’ll jump on that Taurus any day. I had a 1993 3.8 Essex V6 and a 1997 3.0 Vulcan V6. I always wanted a 3.0 Duratec 24 Valve V6 and could never get one because people wanted too much for them.

[@stevesposato9124]

Definitely the Ford Taurus looked like a really good car I would’ve been $575 and the Mercedes I probably would’ve bid $350

[@JoshmanLP]

That whining noise on the Ford C-Max is from the power steering fluids being low or the pump is going out. Great video Randy, always great to watch these. I was really interested in seeing that Lincoln MKX next to the Mercedes you were looking at. Haha.

[@awesomeandre1757]

That truck hit something hard....probably went of some sort of incline. The drivers head hit the window upon impact and the tires blew, rims busted and set off all the bags. As far as frame swaps I watched a theft ring take a body off the frame and put a new on under a hour. So there's that....

[@nathanpotter8569]

The cmax has a transmission issue 100% certain, for I have a 2013 that had the same problem till the transmission went out. I heard in theory that if you are in a carb compliant state it would be covered under warranty till 150,000 miles, but haven't been able to confirm it. Mine has a 168,000 miles on it . Apparently it's a known problem for 2013 to 2014 models. I now have a 2017 energi with a lot less miles and a extended warranty.

[@generationscomputersystems]

I’ve always been intrigued about the Ford C-Max but the condition of the one you featured here is something I would not even touch. Too much issues I foresee to fix mechanically. If it needs engine rebuild and maybe a hybrid battery replacement, I would not bid more than $800 for that. The other cars will be a complete walk for me.
