Fix that Subaru and give it to Nick

[@markjones6181]

I second that exellent first car for Nick --------> 👍🏽

[@brentkiely657]

@@markjones6181 i third that . Nick doesn't need something sporty for a first car.... hell , i drove a light blue 1988 plymouth voyager minivan for my first vehicle ! lol. As long as the vehicle is reliable . I would get it. I now drive a 2010 toyota camry LE ( 2.5 4 cylinder with the 6 speed automatic transmission. ) It isn't exciting to look at ,but damn , they are reliable! Mine only has 81,00 kilometers on it. At the end of november 2023 when i bought it, it only had 71,000 kilometers on it! It was a 1 owner car that was owned by an 83 year old lady!

[@unholyshadowfps]

I third this motion. Great car for Nick

[@ryanravencaller]

Great first car. I drove the sedan version of the same year era/body style before i even got my license and i wanted it - my dad was gonna give it to me for my first car but his gf panicked while he was hydroplaning merging off one highway to another around a corner in the rain and pulled the e-brake. We spun 5 times luckily there were guard rails but we hit the front 3 times and the rear twice. Totaled

[@rce59]

Bid on the Subaru for Nick.

[@tylerbeach4727]

I had a 95 outback wagon a few years back, scored it for $75. No joke, ran and drove. Some guy bought a new car, and I went to look at the Subaru that was listed for $500. I told the guy I didn’t have the full $500 and his wife piped up and said get it out of the yard, give him a deal. The guy said how about $75? Sold! I ran that car for 2 years before Maine would no longer sticker it due to rot but at over 200,000 miles it still ran and drove great.

[@carsonmcleod1809]

I wish there were more deals like that

[@generationscomputersystems]

Get that Outback! Buy it Now! Get your content and it’s a perfect car for Nick.

[@frostyh5105]

Nick is his son right?

[@armons.355]

Not by blood but his stepson

[@Jonny2by4]

The S40 would be a great candidate for doing a “how to diagnosis electrical issues” video

[@joshturnbull318]

That Subaru would be the perfect car for Nick. Reliable, practical, safe, and easy to work on (plus easy to make a fun driver). For $500 I think it’s a deal!

[@mikesharp8653]

Buy the Outback! Too good of deal and worth putting a few bucks in.

[@TheSaltyExplorer]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Subaru Outback that didn’t have a COEXIST bumper sticker on it, until now that is.

[@tyleroravetz5337]

Outback was my first car, 03’. To this day I regret ever selling it. Best car for the winter.

[@beepbeepmichael]

That Juke Nismo is a real thing lol. They made it as the “fun sporty” version of the juke. Also love the outback and that S40 would be awesome for the Channel

[@TheMustardisbad]

They made 5 GTR Jukes as well.

[@beepbeepmichael]

@@TheMustardisbad is that so? I’ve never seen or heard of them lol

[@TheMustardisbad]

They actually made a GTR version of the Juke. Nissan produced 5 of them, not sure why but they are out there somewhere.

[@georgescarvids]

The S40 is notorious for issues but, this one has Gremlins!!

[@matthewc3120]

I'd be just as concerned about the clean oil and no coolant too. They are known for having head gasket issues if not cared for or people using the wrong coolant.

[@icantsaywhat]

The Volvo sounds like it’s got a couple burnt wires behind the dash. The wires are making contact and when power gets sent to headlights it also energizes the Ac circuit and flasher circuit. That car might be a hell of a headache to diagnose and fix

[@wayneharmon8324]

I like that Subaru outback. I’m thinking about getting one myself. I can’t wait to see it on the channel. Keep up the great work Randy.

[@Brent-pq3ds]

I bought a 2004 Outback VDC H6 sedan from CoPart and rebuilt it with 40k original miles. Maintain them and they'll keep going for 300k miles or more.

[@williamsinger4124]

I had one of those some years ago for a winter beater. The name was a mouthful for sure...Subaru outback H6 3.0 VDC L.L. bean edition. I fixed the rear subframe with lawnmower blades. Here in the northeast they rot before they die. Thing was an animal in the snow

[@davidkane4300]

The 3.0 H6 is the one to get with this body style... The 2.5 is a ticking time bomb for head gasket issues, almost as bad as early Northstars, but the H6 and 2.2 are good, but unfortunately the 2.2 was only in the very lowest end Legacy (I doubt any Outbacks, and maybe no wagons had them).

[@JrZCarZ]

Always loved the looks of those Subi Outbacks and always wanted to drive one. Can't wait to see the deal with that. Drive her home, I miss the days when you actually drove the 'run and drive' cars back vs getting it towed.

[@TaffPlays]

Great first car for Nick! I have a N/A manual Forester that's 5 years newer than that Outback and I absolutely love it to bits! Doesn't feel slow (has about the same power as the Outback) and is really a hoot to drive! And yes, the Nismo Juke is unfortunately a real thing!

[@Webbbby]

It has a bin of $575 and you bid $500, just BIN! Smart man.

[@trebor229]

He did BINNED it😅

[@waynestell2808]

People up here in Montana love Subarus. I noticed the license plate bracket said "Bennett Motors," which happens to be a Buick-GMC dealership in Great Falls, so this car had to have been from Great Falls before it landed at IAA of OKC. That would make a great first car for Nick.

[@PSTLNC2]

Randy, I have a 2001 Subaru Outback and they are great cars as long as the head gaskets have been replaced with the newer updated ones. Typically you can tell as they are blue and can been seen from the edges. This generation did have a recall for the rear subframe rusting out, so definitely check on that. This era was also didn't have the crappy CVT transmission. I'd do a fluid service on the transmission and on all the driveline gearboxes. Here in Michigan the rust normally claims these cars before mechanical issues. If you need more details on what to look for just ask. There's alot of us Subbie fans on your channel

[@davidkane4300]

This one seems ok, but it's a ticking time bomb... For the low price (with fees probably just under $1000), though, I'd bite and change the head gaskets myself if it needs them.

[@icantsaywhat]

For a first car it’s not bad. Even if you sell the wheels and tires you get 80% of your money back

[@torreyleepgh]

For the Volvo Doors got to be unlocked for the trunk to open. You can go in the screen and pick how you want the car to unlock i would change the button for the flasher

[@jason7078]

Finally another subaru, have only been waiting 5 years lmao. I'm pretty sure you've only had one subaru on the channel since I started watching in 2019.

[@jaidenlsx]

what a steal! those outback’s are awesome and you don’t see them too much around me. i think nick would like it, plenty of room for friends and future date nights

[@carlbernard4197]

They are very common up here in Michigan. Two of my sisters have newer versions of this Subaru 😊😊

[@jasoningram9928]

Randy, you need to get the possessed Volvo just to get a good laugh once in awhile.

[@stevesymons7196]

We used to have one of those Outbacks (in Western Australia). My missus was driving it on a smooth gravel road, and it decided to suddenly spin on her on a straight part of the track. Popped 2 tyres while spinning (luckily didn't cause it to flip when the rims dug into the gravel). She ended up with the back end in the bushes. Luckily her and kids were ok. She refused to drive it after that. The next day, with new tyres, I drove it to work, and, on dry sealed road, it spun at an intersection, almost backing into a wall. Needless to say, we got rid of it. A few months later, we saw on news, a couple hundred km's south of us, a driver died in one after it somehow left the road and rolled several times. Same colour but not our old one. From my personal experience I wouldn't get one for my own kids (but we might have just been unlucky and ours had some sort of mechanical issue). If you do get it, go over it thoroughly to make sure everything is perfect.

[@Subacabra]

Subaru is great! Yes some have the typical issues but with proper maintenance they last forever. I bought a 99 rs brand new and it lasted over 300k.

[@LuckyWerewolf-yk6wo]

Subaru love to blow head gaskets in my experience at least the newer ones

[@jonathanpagan1611]

Yes, Nissan did a NISMO version of the Juke.

[@DaveTomahawk]

You didn’t push the A/C button! Stoked you grabbed this thing.

[@subarufan1237]

If you get it and give it to nick make sure you change the timing belt and water pump, we’ve got a 2001 Forester we bought new and all 3 of our kids drove it until they got their own cars! we still have it it’s got 244k miles on it we had to do the headgaskets at 220k because of them leaking coolant on the ground but it’s been a great car we’ve had nothing but good luck with our Subarus they’ve all been good

[@subarufan1237]

Then I saw the timing belt was replaced already

[@andrewherrera2736]

Its like the tv show where the used to close one door of the car and another door would've opened on its own. Haha , Volvo Needs to Visit a Priest

[@cigarsgunsandgasoline8032]

Do it. Outback is a decent wagon for running to get parts in!!!

[@gloomyxnights]

watching this in my 2002 outback 👌 i love these subarus

[@Crispychicken4u]

The Nissan juke nismo rs isn’t a bad handling car. if you can get past the looks😮 , recaro seats , body kit , 6 speed and 215 hp . In a 3k lb cuv

[@douglasbrown8175]

Love my 2005 Outback LLBean edition I think you bought a good one. I would love to have a second one in the family.

[@markjones6181]

That Volvo reminds me of Christine.?...😂😂😂🤣

[@paulgray2387]

We had a Dodge Nitro (UK). We absolutely loved it, such a presence on the road. Had some off road capability as well ..☮️

[@nickwood8694]

Yes that juke is a real Nismo. Im also one of those ones thats embarrased to admit that i own a juke. so far no transmission issues,

[@ilackedtheheart]

That's the real big point there. IDK what Nissan made their CVTs with.

[@AndyDouville]

Would love to see the S40 come to the channel. We just bought a 2009 for our daughter this year. Ours has 165k on it and has been a great car so far. Keep up the good work and thanks for what you do.

[@bk_goatkim679]

Keep up the great work Randy we love to see it love these stories and walkaround ❤

[@ToKuTube]

Hell yea man that outback would be good. 98-01 had head gasket issues but if theu were replaced (they probably were at 100k) it should be good for life.

[@WrenchingOnCars]

Sounds like bad grounds on the Volvo, or chewed wires. The blower moder is probably backfeeding through the headlight circut.

[@albertorobles9287]

EXCELLENT PURCHASE ON THE SUBI🎉🎉🎉

[@AlabamaJones901]

11:45 wish I could have found a car like that when my son wanted a ride. We ended up buying a 2011 Malibu LS and it’s been a problem

[@richroggio]

my favorite car brand, Rebuilds 💯👍 I love it

[@andrewbauer434]

That Volvo is haunted

[@jessewynne8193]

I live in CT so I’m sure transporting a car from carport with fees will cost just as much as buying a $2,500 beater here. Cuz it’s a gamble to get a car I can’t see drive on auctions

[@MrFastaneco]

With the due respect Randy that Subaru Outback is a very good for a first car for Nick

[@thejewbacabra4926]

Sweet! Love the 2 tone. Especially the blue and grey combo

[@pbrock669]

Perfect car for Nick the Subaru I owned one in the same color configuration

[@FoxyThePirate]

I have a 2005 Volkswagen Passat W8 and I would so kill to have that outback those are really nice cars

[@ghostrider729]

Congratulations!!!

[@user-mt1sk1fo3b]

I have had 3 Subaru's, great cars, currently own a 2024 Outback, great cars.

[@craigjorgensen4637]

Head gaskets probably already done? Good buy!

[@DvdXploitr]

That Subaru would be great for Nick as long as the transmission is fine. It's got a recent timing belt, good tires already on it, after market stereo with CarPlay and Android Auto, plenty of room for him and friends to fit comfortably as well as plenty of room in the hatchback.

[@jessewynne8193]

The only problem with that year Subaru are HEAD GASKETS are common But that’s easy to tell check under oil cap and coolant resevore!

[@ryanravencaller]

I’ve taken care of 3 of that gen, they either leak or consume coolant and once it goes low its game over and you get a milkshake, my dad has has owned 5 subarus i personally checked the coolant every few fuel ups, the one i didn’t worry about cause i was told that one didn’t have head gasket issues so you didn’t have to worry? The 1999 wagon with the ej22, it blew the radiator so i replaced it, new oem clamps, and hoses, was up til midnight working on it and bleeding it, to check it and bleed it again in the morning and i even checked it the next morning to make sure it was full and no bubbles and then a week after when getting gas i just checked the overflow and level just to be 100% sure well a few weeks later, on the end of his 30 mile drive to work the heat stopped working, it started running hot as he pulled into work, he let it cool off and filled it with water to start driving home, didn’t think to check the oil to see the milkshake, surprisingly the car made it home, he took it to get an oil change and the coolant wasn’t bubbling at the moment or anything they thought he added water to the oil, well unfortunately after that when i had my old mechanic friend come look at it and confirm my head gasket suspicions and we both agreed the car wouldn’t last more than a few more drives my dad said to turn it around so it was backed in the driveway and reduced running time of the engine welllll unfortunately as soon as i put it in drive it to turn it around and back it in without even touching the accelerator it made metal on metal noises and then seized up. There was no coolant or water in the fresh oil either lol

[@russellcook8075]

Had a outback identical to this, 400k miles 1 owner, was a incredible car and I’m actively looking to buy another for a winter car

[@DanT271]

Grab that Outback! Love to see a "will it make it home" video

[@t.l.robinson2162]

The Volvo is acting like Hutch's car from Starsky and Hutch.

[@CalgaryRambler]

That Sub is a Nick-mobile

[@ghostrider729]

The new tires on it covers the cost almost,plus it's a very safe car for Nick, Subaru!!! By now I would

[@m7machines738]

That Subaru make a perfect car for Nick they’re reliable safe and very comfortable

[@ChaosG3688]

You also have a 1959 Rambler American Classic Coming I Know From Your Community Posts.

[@462ANIMAL]

I have many Subaru ‘s , I have 3 Foresters 2 being 09 Limited Edition.. they have a crazy big panoramic sunroof. And a 10 base model.. just used as a beater.. we get a lot of snow here in Northern Ontario. And have one 05 limited edition outback forest green. Just look out for oil leaks at the head gaskets.. or they can burn coolant..sometimes the gaskets fail and they overheat and push off the upper radiator hose.. sometimes people put worm clamps and try and sell them that way. The transmissions are usually very strong.. I’ve towed trailers about 3,500 lbs they have good torque .. but you do have to push them at 5,500 rpm up hills towing at 50 mph

[@bengyperez6933]

Randy, the white subraru will be grt for Nick , for his1st car to start to drive!

[@caidenfarrington9655]

Those 2.5’s are notorious for headgasket failure around 120K. I’d bet that’s why it’s at auction. They are really easy to do though! Very clean Subaru!

[@malikdigger4544]

Thank U Randy For Showing 90s Gold Geo Tracker Not Bad For First Summer Car Just Need Good Wash Mostly On External & Under Hood.

[@docgiggles130]

That outback would be a fun, easy fixup project. The only thing I worry about is the transmission or head gaskets

[@davidkucher5.0Coy]

I think the Volvo is haunted Randy, Ha Ha. 😎👍

[@markjones6181]

You did well buying the Subaru that car would make a safe first car for Nick ------> 👍🏽.......AWD all day long......🔥🔥🔥❤️💯👍🏽

[@jimmyboyles2868]

The newer tires would be worth the price on the Sub.

[@ryanravencaller]

Those subarus antennas are in the rear window and they often break and get replaced with one without it or the connection breaks, aftermarket radio with Bluetooth is the best solution honestly

[@benlee6500]

Randy's buying that Subaru Outback, 4 wheel 🛞 drive marvel stuff at USD600. The golden colour tiny car is similar to Suzuki Vitara, 1.5cc engine equivalent in Asia countries...pretty popular then...the Volvo car is a unique experience....should be good runner too!!!😅😂🎉..Randy has his hands full 😀

[@0T_46]

Nissan also put a GTR motor inside like 10 jukes lmfao.

[@edwardjbarton]

Head gaskets are an Achilles heel on the Subies of that vintage.

[@ASH.......................1976]

Randy,that chevy tracker ,the hood reliese is in the glove box 👍

[@joska41]

Great deal on Outback !

[@Cooperdonny325]

I think that Subaru would be a great first car for Nick!!!!

[@ptapialam]

on the volvo, behind the glovebox there is the CEM, which could be the problem of the electronics of the car (i remember samcracc uses a CEM from a S40 to try to repair a flooded aston martin)

[@adrens4617]

that S40 is posessed

[@carlbernard4197]

And also a possible fire 🔥 hazard 😮😮😮😊😊

[@mattaffliction]

I would have 100% bought that Subaru without hesitation.

[@haskellburks]

Hello Randy. The Subaru Outback is a good looking SUV. You should buy it Randy. The 1998 Chevrolet Tracker is a decent looking SUV even though it's got mold and mildew inside and other issues.

[@redneckbryon]

13:50, I could be wrong, but I believe it’s in the glove box, lol

[@t.l.robinson2162]

It is a very good idea to drive the car home. It makes for an excellent video.

[@Tall_Texan86]

That would be a good storm chase rig if the 4wd and everything checks out.

[@danielkern1110]

Hey Randy, good I just saw your Copart walk around that you posted for this morning. I liked every car that you showed us today and you’re right on that Volvo. That is a very weird car and it’s even weirder because it’s doing funny stuff but can’t wait to see what you have planned for the next video. I hope you get the car that you want. I know that you bought one today and I can’t wait to see. Big car that you bought today on the channel and if you decide to get the Volvo, I can’t wait to see what you do with it if you get it I don’t know if you’re planning on getting it or not but anyhow I can’t wait to see the one that you bought on the journal. Can’t wait to see your next video buddy. I hope you have a great day and tell everybody I said hi. Talk to you later.

[@462ANIMAL]

Man , I want that Tracker ! They make for a excellent bush buggy ! I have a 94 convertible with 31” tires goes pretty much wherever you point it .. even with mud and water above the pedals ! 😂. Hood release is in the glovebox ! 😀

[@kihungidenis1962]

You should really consider that subaru because those old Subarus were reliable and having a boxer engine ...... Well Nick's gonna love it.

[@monteArnold]

Mann that Outback would be a blessing 😮‍💨😅, Id put down for that. All I got from being lady off last minute and just pray I won😂😂

[@elijahjenkins1669]

Love the legacy Outback❤️ you should go for it.

[@MercedesMick]

Give the Subaru to Nick, perfect safe car for him

[@stevensatter3231]

love your Subaru

[@ilackedtheheart]

I know I'm not the only one who does this, but hearing other people pronounce TRD as Turd amuses me lol. Yes, I'm 35. Why do you ask?

[@Jerry-nz3ji]

I havent even seen the video and i'll say yes....I love Subarus!

[@samidan91]

I would definitely grab the Subaru.Outback, that's really cheap.I bought a 2015 Subaru forester last year.No complaints really dependable vehicle and it's a six speed manual

[@jamestidwell2224]

It's a real good car for the price I think u did good

[@robertstephens2795]

Subaru is perfect for Nick, no power but still fun with awd and his buddies can all pile in. Too bad it isn’t a 5 speed

[@generationscomputersystems]

I love Volvos and would love to get my hands on a S40. It's relatively easy to trace electrical gremlins on a Volvo, compared to most brands. That Chevrolet/Geo Tracker might be a fun one for the channel but be prepared to take another loss as its not that valuable.

[@tonyfromyt18]

he said “oooo a trd”🤣💀

[@jaime9367]

that gen of outback has head gasket issues still a good deal but keep that in mind

[@michaelsimmons2759]

Good first car for Nick.
