between 125,000 and 175,000 kms is the worst mileage to buy a used car high enough to have some major maintenance work done low enough that the owner still feels its too early.

Not driving a car is so dumb. As long as there is no salt on the ground and its not raining too hard i drive my corvette all spring summer and fall. Only time my truck gets used in those seasons is if i have more than 1 other person with me or i need my trailer

Imagine finally being with a girl of your dreams, but keeping her locked up while you go out on dates, making memories, and having sex with a beater, only to save the girl of your dreams for the next guy...

[@Smeedia]

Fancy seeing you here Joe lol

​@@SmeediaTannerrrrrrrr!!

[@geometry0x]

good info! (your 17-years old brother from Algeria and I really like your videos.) you're much more unique than even big youtubers!

[@CanadianGearhead]

I appreciate that!

[@toyotas4ever]

I can speak from experience that old tires equals hard tires and I've lost two vehicles due to running old tires. Sadly, the second vehicle was my 2003 Tacoma that was a fantastic little truck. It was totalled in 2014.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Yup especially in cold weather

[@DaemonC]

Good info! Your videos helped me so much when I first got my 4th gen 4runner 9 years ago!

[@CanadianGearhead]

Glad to hear that!

[@skydewz]

260k on my sw20 and no issues. Daily it but still wish I could drive it more. Disappointing when people buy cars that aren't exotics and don't drive them

[@alfalfasprout69]

Nice Video!, Very wise words, The same goes for motorcycles, the amount of bike that sit for a long time in peoples garages is terrible, and they wonder why they have problems. Boys Toys are meant to be used, end of story!

[@rolon-ew5kl]

I had a low mileage car as my first one a 1993 miata 7 years ago and it had so much issues to daily drive. It was rust free too.

[@vs4deathx]

YT Algorithm doing wonders, awesome video! Look forward to watching your other videos. :)

[@CanadianGearhead]

Much appreciated!

[@FracturedGoblin]

Love the content! How about a video on what to do if you DO drive your nicer car in the winter? Worthwhile preparation's, etc. I'm from Nova Scotia and imported a mint 2003 Toyota Crown Estate Athlete V last year, and with my current life situations I did winter drive it last year and plan to again this year.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Great idea!

[@Alejandro-u7q7c]

From personal experience I can drive one of my cars with no issues for months, but if I let it sit for a while shit starts messing up and nature begins to reclaim it. Plus driving them allows you to find and fix small issues before they become a real problem.

[@CanadianGearhead]

Great point

[@Alejandro-u7q7c]

@@CanadianGearhead I know you covered these points in your video. But I posted the comment before watching it. Thanks for discussing the subject. It's definitely something that needs to be talked about.

[@Toyota4Life]

Good Lord, your MR2 is insanely beautiful. I easily think the MR2 is a better looking car than the SUPRA Mazda RX-7 and Honda NSX.

[@Detah_]

I don't feel so bad now with my 1998 Volvo v70 t5 and she's got 341,000 miles or well over half a million maple syrups in your measurement system. My kei project car is a different story and explains why it's blew a head gasket this year. She's from 1996 and has a little under 100,000 miles on her.

[@morreracingteam6004]

I have Subaru Impreza STI ver.2 1995 gc8, it has like 270tkm and i hear all the time how much its been driven but its not even 10tkm in year and i maintain it all the time, i fix even small things before they becomes a major issue, so i bet its way better than these low mileage subies 😂

[@rngwrm]

and that's why jay leno is history's greatest monster

[@odin5188]

I've had to store my MR2 since September 😮‍💨 probably won't come out properly till March/April

[@CanadianGearhead]

Feels bad man

[@07wrxtr1]

working remote - so I try to drive it once a week - or at a minimum - let it run for about 10 minutes while I'm drying it off post wash...

[@CanadianGearhead]

It's worth the effort!

[@raulbustamante8337]

agreed

[@amateur_mtb_rider]

I'm at 45k km on my WRX in the first 14 months 😤

[@grocerygrip]

Good stuff. I own a 1995 Nissan 240sx restomod with a 2jz. And me not driving it more than a week, gives me concern, LOL

[@CanadianGearhead]

Sounds like an awesome car

[@grocerygrip]

@@CanadianGearhead interestingly so, it's almost the same color as your car, and I also own a 4Runner, LOL

[@thoroughlyunoriginalname]

6:12 not mine though 😈
