Probable unpopular opinion, get that Mercury Tracer, it'd be fun to see vids on it on your channel, plus you just do NOT see those anymore and when you do they're usually rotted out beyond repair. This one's solid but in need of care, which gives it SOME redeemability lol OBVIOUSLY you'd be buying it for the entertainment value more than to actually make anything from it but still

I can personally verify the story about the Saturn SLs. I worked for a former Saturn dealership in New Orleans for a few years, and the most common issues were people wanting to replace the SL2 motors with another SL2 motor and never thought to replace the transmissions in them. Randy's story fully checks out on the Saturn

Randy, I so enjoy your content. Even more now that you are showing and talking about motorcycles too. Shame on the people that put down others for the vehicle they enjoy, which is what makes you a great person to watch on KZbin. You share and enjoy cars that I may not even look at twice, but you share your stories about them and bring some of these under appreciated cars back to life. Keep it positive and I will keep on watching no matter the type of vehicle.

Got my fingers crossed for you on that Saturn Redline! Hope you get it. Would love to see it on your channel. I bet what makes that Ford Focus so special is the money owed on it. That Tracer just needs a trip to LLC and Maco and some work and it could be as good as new!

Trikes are what you ride when you get old and two wheels aren't comfortable any more and you don't want to stop riding. Some states and provinces brand your motorcycle license as only for trikes/three wheels if that is what you got your license on. This includes side car equipped motorcycles.

And my take on that other youtuber, I totally agree with you randy. Everyone isn't going to have the same preferences. If we all liked the same things the world would be a boring place. We're all in this together and we're not going to get out alive so be kind to one another.

You can just change out the computer You can also replace it with an automatic computer if the car is a manual. You'll cancel out the rev limiter if you do it that way. However it does have to be from the same year Saturn for all to work properly. I only know this because I used to race a 95 saturn Sc2 at a circle track asphalt race track.

Randy I was a biker all my life from aged 16 to when i stopped 2 years ago aged 72. I always had Triumphs (apart from one mega ZZR1100 which I did MILES on and loved) and my last bike was a Triumph Daytona 675 Factory special build. I once tried a mate's Harley and I just couldn't ride 'feet forward' at all. I felt like I was falling off all the time. Then I realised why: I ride with my feet (Old School) and they have to be underneath me to move weight around. Even the early '60s bikes had the pegs sort of under you and the first 'tweak' was always to put rear sets on. And then 'Clip On' bars. I respect people who do up Harleys and the like but they are just not my 'thing'. Be careful and ride like everyone is an idiot and you will be fine mate ... Jealous here!

It's the same way with the gentleman on the Harley, he was enjoying his day, and some douche pulls up, and starts trash talking him. I wish more people would respect what people drive, or ride. I mean, they're enjoying their day, and somoone has to ruin it for them, make them feel bad. How would they like it, if someone came up to him, and started trash talking him for riding one of those sport bikes? You get the idea, people are rude sometimes. Thanks for the video, Randy.

I always look at some of the ones next to the ones you are reviewing and wonder if they will be on a future video, like the Lincoln Town Car next to the Saturn. I like the Saturn. The Focus is ok but not worth 5K. Looking forward to the next one. Is it time to Jump Around? Oh sorry , wrong vlog.

Well Randy, you asked for us to comment about riding or driving a trike....... you say it has to have 2 wheels so you can ride it, I disagree, a horse has 4 legs, yet still you ride it..... in my opinion, if you sit ON it, you are riding it, if you can sit in (and operating it) your driving..... (you ride the train, since you dont operate it, and also as passenger in the car u ride in the car......) therefore you say, "taking a ride in the car ........"like the vids, keep it up
