Hybrids are great for camping. Never run out of power. One can power a camp for a long long time and you always have the reserve that will start the car. Most people start their car for an hour every few days to keep the battery within a range of charge depending on the load.

Scott, luv your videos. The 2012 prius v three has the same oil burning problem. I have one and had to replace the engine. Another 170k later another engine gone. Did oil changes every 3k and was adding g a quart or even 2 every 500 highway miles (depended on summer temp). Toyota said the pistons had the same problem but they refused to do anything. Did some research and learned that the v had a this as a common problem. Lesson learned... no more hybrids! You are right, when they hit high miles, they get expensive. All my problems were engine only.

[@emiliospowerballer1441]

all small cars are easy to maintain. reliability needs a bigger 'range' in order to make rough estimations. vw polos and golfs mae in germany are solid cars, even the sporty racing models. its not a matter of japanese vs european, its a matter of getting what you need and what you want as a second option. hybrid batteries in my country cost 2000 euros, and all hybrids have a 10 warranty which is a perfect deal. i considered buying a 2020 rav4 but it was too pricey; the rest of the toyota hatchbacks were slow, really slow. toyotas are expensive overall but they will last if driven wisely, but that is true for all cars. im not a fan of hybrids tbh, but eventually all cars in the future will be as well as small displacement turbocharged; so it all comes down to what you need

it could simply be a flaw in your analysis of statistics. The toyotas directly from Japan possibly had much more responsible/caring owners and thus aged better It could also be a problem with older vs newer cars in general, not just toyotas, in the sense that newer cars have more parts to break. People could also be driving more miles today than before. Or any other variable. Such as, for example, maybe more female drivers means overall cars last less? etc...

[@hamadmohammad9236]

This is very true about the RAV4s as well as camrys with the same 2AZ engine. Our rav4 used to be a regular oil burner which is fine between every oil change but the burning got severe and it turned to be a bad valve cover gasket. Took the spark plugs out and they were full of oil so the whole valve cover gasket had to be replaced. A friend of ours did it for us dirt cheap and we just had to buy spark plus and the gasket. After the replacement, the car was better than ever and burnt very less oil that is considered normal for cars between oil changes. All of this occurred at 240k miles so I suggest everyone with the same car to have their gasket and spark plugs checked because they're cheap and keep the car running fine.

I'm staying in Maine until Tuesday. I have a 2020 Toyota Camry. Before driving it off the rental car parking lot, I took Scotty's advice and revved up my engine. So far I have driven almost twelve miles. It's an overall solid car, it has some differences from my similarly sized VW Passat.

[@hooninglexus4537]

Lmaooo it cracked me up when you said Toyotas dont even check the air in the tires, oil, and other stuff🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@wtt8914]

Very well said Scotty. I'm a Toyota fanatic but I'm also a victim of the Oil burning engine on my former 09 Camry. Lend the car to my son to use as a commuter car for his Summer job and he didn't check the oil frequently like I told him and the next call I received was the engine is making noise and it technically threw a piston/totalled.

[@Trill_I_Am]

Toyota fanatic? Now that’s hilarious. Toyota are very boring cars to own and drive, plus their are slow.

Welp this just talked me out of a hybrid

[@markperalta2995]

I used to have a 2006 highlander hybrid that barely gets 30 mpg. My 2020 hybrid RAV4 regularly gets 50-53 mpg on my way to work 19 miles away. There was a great discount for the 2019 hybrid RAV4 but I bought the 2020 model since it has the upgraded hybrid warranty of 10yr/150,000mi. Toyota is already at the top when it comes to reliability, but to back it up with the longest factory warranty, that is something that other car makers cannot even imagine.

[@NeverTalkToCops1]

I mean, 100 years or more of engines, making these basic design errors is inexcusable. Air Blows Cold.

Hey scooty you probably one of the best car machanic I know I can watch your show help me to narrow down my car problem. Keep explaining when the book is hard to understand by letter thanks.

[@dexmure8034]

My 2007 Scion Tc has the 2az-fe I have to put 2 quarts of oil in every week

[@kevink9764]

I had the same problem too with my 07' Scion TC. Toyota fixed the the oil problem for me at no cost, let me borrow a car for 3-4 months as they addressed the problem. Car has been running fine since (outside of normal old car problems). They have been great to me so my next car will likely also be a Toyota

[@dexmure8034]

Kevin K when did you have it done and how many miles did your car have? Because I think mine is out of warranty because of miles but people are saying they got theres fixed even though they were out the warranty

[@kevink9764]

@@dexmure8034 I was around 145K at the time and out of warranty. They still took care of me

[@CamKrazy2000]

The Highlander Hybrid was never meant to be a gas saver like the Prius. We were told that from the beginning when we got sent to factory training. It has a V6 engine but combined with the hybrid system, it has as much power as most V8s but gives you the fuel economy of a V6. I've been a Toyota tech for 23 years but I have yet to see a rear diff go bad on a AWD hybrid vehicle which has been around since 2006. That's the coolest thing about the hybrid AWD system which has an all electric diff motor assembly and nothing connecting the rear axles to the front mechanically.

[@TheWilferch]

Same with my 1998 Corolla....1.8 Liter......I think these bad years were 1997-2002 or so....bad, low friction rings that take a carbon-caked "Seat" and don't spring "in-and-out" as they should. Not enough oiling "holes" in the piston-ring groove. I was at 1 *quart* every *40* MILES !!!!! I think the engine type is 1ZZ-FE

[@chevylandt.v]

Wow who knew that some Toyota's were junk. Wow I was always convinced that Toyota's were reliable cars. Now I have second thoughts on buying a Toyota.

[@labornurse]

I think this illustrated his point of not really knowing what new designs reliability is until 5 years later or so.

[@chevylandt.v]

@Jo Blow thanks for the info. I think we all get it.

[@Shadobanned4life]

Oil-burners are a rarity with Toyota. In contrast,Misubishi builds nothing BUT oil-burners,and has for decades and decades. Thanks for valuable information,Mr "K" !🌞

“Rev up your Engines” . Felt like something was missing

[@phillipjames453]

Four cylinder Toyota Corollas and Camrys get great gas mileage and reliability without the eventual expense of the hybrid versions. Don't even think about buying a hybrid SUV. Years from now you'll be glad you didn't.

Toyota sending late paychecks, Scotty has turned.

[@boldcitycc]

Kevs2good . Idk why everyone constantly insinuates he’s on the take. Some are joking of course, but many aren’t.He’s a millionaire from views and subscribers from being honest with people. This is a perfect example. He’s a fan of Toyota quality( my experience has been similar m being bulletproof proof cars. But he will criticize them where they fall short
