How To Buy A USED Car/Truck and NOT Get Ripped Off

[@zackwooden474]

How’d it go?

[@jerilyn4867]

I just wanted to add.. as far as the windshield goes. Seals do NOT keep water out. They are purely cosmetic. The urethane holds the integrity of the windshield and keeps water out. The only way you would get a leak is if there was a missed connection in the glue bead or body seam issue. There would be other various reason for a leak. But just an example. Sunroof- same thing with the seal but it does keep debris somewhat out. The reason it would leak is if the drains are clogged and/or cracked. I love watching your videos! Very educational! Hope this helps others 🙂

[@Boris275]

The great thing about this series is how he shows the bad stuff vs the good stuff. Most other guys just verbally tell you what the bad stuff to avoid is, but you are just left to imagine what that stuff is supposed to look like. We have practical examples here.

Man you just changed everything for me! My old man RIP used to flip cars for a living as well anywho growing up he was tryna show me the game but I was too busy tryna be in the streets. Years later I see what he was tryna do. One of my biggest regrets not on the making money just the missed out time and memories with him had I listened. Love the content brother! If you’re looking for any old school vehicles I have a few, got a 86 Chevy blazer, 86 caprice classic, 86 suburban, 69 ford grand torino

Tell me about it my old man left me with 14 so yeah just thought I’d throw that out there since you actually flip cars for a living but hey it’s never to late to start right? Like I said these videos are helping out a lot that way I can have a better ideas of what price to put on them

[@FreakySniperFTWOfficial]

Hey Buddy, Im curious as to how you handle the title for cars you’re flipping, In my case I live in Florida and I believe that requires a dealers license to do. I know many people that just jump titles but Im wondering how you handle it.

[@idzis4283]

we can see very clearly the difference between a caring owner of the bmw, and not so caring owner of the highlander, bmw owner took good care and made sure the dings and chips of pain wont cause it to rust, even if it had some minor issues, they've been atleast patched up and not left to cause even more damage.

[@BuddysDIY]

Appreciate that homie. New car flipping video in about 2 weeks!

[@Sikeslikescars]

1:00 actually it is super common for the hood and front bumper to be a little misaligned on these cars. There is not a ton of adjustment you can do to the hood and you have to remove and reinstall the front bumper if you want it to fit better. The rest of the seams should all be pretty good though, it seems to mostly be that front bumper that is a little wonky on most of them.

Yes sirr. And more to come!

[@hut375]

Hey Buddy, I am following along your 4 part inspection video series, and find it quiet helpful and easy to understand, as a non mechanical person. I cannot find part 4 of the series ? But in any case the knowledge I have gained from the first three videos has been quite helpful. 45 mins into the used car inspection I was carrying out today on a possible purchase, the sellers anger and irritation, and his pressure on me to hurry up ! was such that we parted ways after 45 mins into a likely two hour inspection I was determined to carry out, between checking the vehicle and paperwork, and test drive. But in that time, thanks to your comprehensive videos I noted blue smoke , on accerlation, from the exhaust, never a good sign ! alignments, spring, suspension issue on one front tyre, engine warning light not extinguishing. After a look underneath, an exhaust system that was corroded, a rusted hole in the petrol tank ! 'Its only £1500 pounds, what do you expect, he exclaimed', . That's a lot of money to me, along with a possible tax of £700, co2 emission's !, insurance, £ 400, repairs bills another £1500, so quiet a lot actually. So I appreciate your knowledge, and keep up the good work.

[@dietpiediaries6287]

Does hand held machines for CODE READING tell specific engine motor problems or even transmission problems? Or is that only able to be diagnosed when a mechanic opens up the engine?

[@lesterparker1594]

If you get a cheap one it’s usually not very specific. However, you can usually google the code it gives you and get much more info. You can find what issues usually throw that code and find some fixes that helped other people. Hope this helps

What about buying a salvage or even rebuilt title car?

[@koevoet7288]

1:41 lol thats quite a useless blur

[@cristianandrei5462]

The stuff in the video doesn't really matter, so what if it has rock chips, or a little bit of rust, you can fix that for cheap. I'll say firstly you want to inspect the person selling the car, if it is the owner of it and had it for a long period of time or a reseller. If its the first I'll ask if/when it changed the timing belt/chain on the car and if it has a service history of the oil changes. That's the main causes of engine failure...

This is good for cars but on trucks, especially older ones your going to spend almost all of your time looking underneath. You can look under a truck for 5 minutes and be amazed of the rust you can miss. Being in the salt belt sucks.

The end brings up a question. I have an older camry and when i start it a little smoke comes out the back... what can that mean and what can i do to fix it?

[@BuddysDIY]

So it's just a little smoke it's probably condensation. That's not big deal. Not if it's a decent cloud then it could be a head gasket failing. A little smoke upon start is okay. If it's constant then that's no bueno. Of course when it's cold out there will be a constant stream of smoke and that's okay. But I'm sure it's just condensation in your case. If you want you can send me a video on my instagram account and I'll tell you forsure
