Why Not to Buy a Chevrolet HHR Car
Scotty Kilmer:
rev up your engines,
Marco's Delgado says Scotty I want to
get an HHR with a manual transmission
has 130,000 miles what are your thoughts
okay I don't like those GM products they
generally don't hold up over time, but
it's a standard transmission the worst
thing about the HHR are their automatic
transmissions are garbage and you don't
have one it's a manual transmission, now
that sets got 130,000 miles it's got a
little bitty four-cylinder engine in it
don't pay much for it, because they are
worth much when they're used, you get a
standard you get it at a cheap price
right, change the oil a lot take care of
it, who knows but don't pay much for it because just realize it when they get older
they're not worth that much money and
you want to pay much for it, and if you
get it cheap enough, hey you never know
it might last a long time just don't pay
too much for it because it isn't worth
that much, Theresa B says I got a 1998
Ford Taurus W hundred and sixty-four
thousand miles for free, but the radiator
was rusty, flushed alone, suspensions bad
valve cover transmission leaks
needs transmission motor mounts are
Ford Taurus is good car, okay
that's 98 Ford Taurus they actually had
quite a bit of problems, now the thing is
you got that car for nothing,
it runs decent and shifts decent do the
valve cover, oil leaks if it's not
leaking that bad, transmission fluid and
engine oils cheap just keep adding it,
and if the suspension is bad get some
struts and put them on it on and it will ride a
lot better, just don't put a whole bunch
of money into it, my advice would be,
drive a little while see how you feel
with it, does it feel solid enough does
it run and shift good enough and if it
does fix things a little at a time, if
it doesn't have just drive until the
wheels fall off and get rid of it, you
got it for nothing so you're not really
gonna be losing anything,
MDS 81 68 says, Scotty I have a shake or
wobble in the front when I take off from
a stop once in a while I thought it
could be the engine, clean the MAF
throttle port cleaner I had strut
replaced and it's still shaken or wobble
when I take off from a stop, a lot of
times it's just the motor or the
transmission mount is worn, because when
you take off, there's more torque on the
engine and so if the mounts are gone it will
wobble as it bounces back and forth
you want to check those mounts first to
see if there's any problem with that, now
let's say you have a car that is a
notorious problem like say, a Chrystler minivan that's doing
that
odds are two transmission is starting to
go out, because when you take off, if it
wobbles a lot of times it's the
transmission just starting to go out,
because if you got a suspension problem
like a bad tire or worn tie rods, the
faster you go the more it's gonna wobble
and yours is the other way around, it's
wobbling when you're taking off, you want
to pray that it's not an internal
transmission fault, because if it's that
you would have to go and get it rebuilt
which costs a fortune, so pray that it's
a motor or transmission mount first
because they're very easy to check, Zeno
2019 says Scotty I got a 2004
Trailblazer
and my dash lights aren't working what
could be the cause, people had the radio
out before the original dash cluster
and we got three more clusters put them
in and the light still didn't work what
could it be
it could be not having the radio when
you swap it out, because GM has these
insane designs, some of the modern cars
won't even start if you swap the radio
because part of the starting system
is in the radio circuitry, so you want to
check all the wiring by where the radio
was, something could easily be off now if
you hadn't had that radio taken out and not
replaced, the problem often is on those
you turn your lights on then you got
those things to make the lights brighter
or dimmer, that part often breaks now
that can be bypassed
because you can just take the wire off
of that and you can run it directly to
the clusters, when you have the car
running the cluster will get 12 volts
all the time and then the lights would
stay on, you couldn't adjust them and
make them dim or make them bright they'd
be bright all the time but hey, look at
me I'm getting old I want a bright so I
want those things as bright as they can
be, first thing I do is go to the light
feed on that cluster and just give it 12
volts and as it lights up, just rewire it
so that power comes from the ignition
switch to there when you start it up and
they'll be lit up all the time, Edoardo
Becerra says, Scotty hello from Italy I
have a 1984 Audi Quattro it overheats the
fan works I checked the inlet and outlet
temperature the two radiators and enters
in at 240 and exits at 140 what can it be, okay well it's leaving at a lot lower it's your
radiators are losing a hundred degrees
so they're getting rid of heat they're
doing their job, now the problem with
Audi's is, as they age they often have
problems with blown head gaskets, your
engine could just be putting out so much
heat that it's overheating
you want to watch my video, how to tell
if your head gasket is blown, do that test
because if the head gasket is blown it'll
overheat no matter how fast your
radiator can dissipate heat the engine
will create too much heat and then it will
keep overheating, so if you never want to
miss another one of my new car repair
videos, remember to ring that Bell!
190169 - New, 2019, Chevrolet Colorado, ZR2, Test Drive, Review, For Sale -
McCluskey Chevrolet:
Have you been considering the 2019 Honda Ridgeline?
Well then take a look at the 2019 Chevrolet
Colorado and I’m sure you’ll change your
mind.
The Chevrolet Colorado offers a rear seat
reminder in the back, so that the driver will
always be alerted to check the back seat to
make sure that a child or infant is not left
in there when exiting the vehicle.
The Chevrolet Colorado has power child safety
locks, which allows the driver to activate
and deactivate them from the drivers side
and to know when they’re engaged.
The Chevrolet Colorado has 1.5 Gallons more
fuel capacity than the Honda Ridgeline.
The Chevrolet Colorado offers a manual transmission
for better acceleration, control and fuel
economy.
Unfortunately, the Honda Ridgeline does not
offer a manual transmission.
The eight-speed automatic is standard on the
Colorado V6 for better acceleration and lower
engine speed on the highway, whereas on a
six speed automatic in a Honda Ridgeline is
only available.
At a test from 70 miles per hour to 0 ,the
Chevrolet Colorado stops at a much shorter
distance than the Honda Ridgeline.
21 feet shorter.
That difference can prevent an accident.
So come on down and see why the 2019 Chevrolet
Colorado is better, more reliable than the
2019 Honda Ridgeline.
We will cover it with our free lifetime mechanical
warranty for as many miles and as many years
as you own it.
So take it on one of our free 48 hour test
drives.
Best New Cars for 2019-2020: Latest Cars, Trucks & SUVs | Edmunds
Edmunds:
CARLOS LAGO: Welcome
to the LA Auto Show.
This is the first domestic
show of the season.
In this video, we're going to
skip all the behind the scenes
and most of the concepts
and get straight
to what's relevant to you.
You see here is a collection
of all the new vehicles
that you're going to see
at dealerships next year.
You can use edmunds.com to
find more detailed information
on any of the vehicles
featured in this video.
WILL KAUFMAN: The 2019 Acura
ILX has been refreshed,
and it certainly looks
sharper on the outside.
You'll get more standard
safety features,
an Apple CarPlay and Android
Auto integration are available.
It's comfortable and the
high-revving, naturally
aspirated engine is fun to
drive in certain situations,
but it lacks grunt
in normal driving.
The interior also feels a
bit cheap and plasticky,
because the ILX is still based
on the last generation Honda
Civic.
However, this is
the cheapest way
to get into a new
small luxury sedan,
with prices starting
at just around $26,000.
This five passenger SUV has been
totally redesigned for 2019.
We've had a chance to
test the all new RDX,
and it ranked competitively
among small luxury SUVs,
coming in a close fifth in
a hotly contested segment.
The turbo motor feels strong,
and the RDX is fun to drive.
It's also comfortable, roomy,
and has great interior storage
and cargo space.
So why only fifth?
Well, it's not quite as premium
feeling as some competitors,
and its German rivals are
a bit stronger dynamically.
Still, with prices
starting under $40,000,
the new RDX should present a
tempting value to shoppers.
MARK TAKAHASHI: As SUVs
take over auto sales,
the Audi A6 takes a
stand for those who still
value performance and handling.
It starts right around
$60,000 and drives a lot
like the previous generation,
which is a good thing.
The big difference is
the amount of technology
they packed into it.
Unfortunately, it's a
little distracting to use.
There's also a new
Audi A7 at the show,
and it drives a lot like the A6.
It costs $9,100 more though,
but you get a lot more features
and a much larger cargo space.
Unfortunately, you also lose out
on a little rear seat headroom.
Check out my first
drive on each of these
to find out for yourself.
Both the A6 and A7 compete
against the Mercedes Benz
E-Class as well as
the BMW 5 Series.
Right behind me as the Audi A8.
As much as I like this flagship,
a lot of the technology
has gone unfulfilled.
The interface is
just as distracting
to use as the supporting models
and its biggest development,
level 3 automated driving,
isn't coming to the US just yet.
Even without that, it's
a really strong choice
in the class that includes the
BMW 7 series and Mercedes Benz
S-Class.
Also notable is the
all electric E Tron.
It goes with more conventional
styling than its rivals
the Jaguar I-PACE, Tesla
Model X and Mercedes EQC.
Like those, it has
all-wheel drive
and is packed with technology.
Judging by the battery
specs, the 200 mile range
should get close to the
Tesla Model X. Performance
should still be good
the 0 to 60 time
of 5 and 1/2 seconds,
which is slower
than the Jag and the Tesla.
BMW's seventh generation 3
Series is here, with the M340i.
382 horsepower from
the turbo charged
six cylinder is a big step
up from the 255 horsepower
in the 330i.
BMW estimates it'll hit 60
miles an hour in 4.2 seconds.
All-wheel drive is
an option, but if you
want a manual transmission,
you're out of luck.
There's more tech that
includes a virtual assistant
like Mercedes
Benz's MBUX system.
The M340i will show
up in the spring
and we expect it to cost
somewhere around $50,000.
I like the 3 Series,
but I love the 8 Series.
I also love convertibles,
and that version
made its debut right here.
It has the same 523 horsepower
turbo V8 as the coupe,
and it sounds amazing,
but with the top down,
that V8 should sound
even more amazing.
Enjoy it for yourself
when it arrives in March
for about $122,000.
For about half that price, you
can get the all new BMW Z4.
I got to drive it, and
it's a huge improvement
over the last generations.
It's a good middle ground
between the Porsche Boxter
and Audi TT Roadster, both in
terms of price and personality.
Prices start right
around $50,000
for the turbo charged,
four cylinder that makes
255 horsepower this March.
The production
version of the BMW X7
also made its road debut here.
This three row SUV
has seating for seven
and a maximum cargo
capacity of 90 cubic feet.
When the X7 goes
on sale this March,
you'll have two engine
choices, a 355 horsepower turbo
charged six cylinder that
sells for about $75,000.
You'll also have a
456 horsepower V8
that sells for around $94,000.
Shoppers are more
likely to gravitate
towards the X5 than
the big X7, and it's
been fully redesigned for 2019.
You get the same engine
choices as the X7,
which means the V8
powered X5 should
be a really strong performer.
This fourth gen model is a
little bit bigger than before
and also gets some light
off-road capabilities.
It's on sale now for around
$62,000 for the xDrive 40i
and $77,000 for the xDrive 50i.
A third row of
seats is optional.
If you're looking
to downsize, there's
also a new BMW X4,
with smaller dimensions
and improved handling and
actually borders on sporty.
Unfortunately, that roofline
cuts into the cargo space
as well as rear seat headroom.
Prices are going to start
right around $51,000
for the xDrive 30i.
Stepping up to the
355 horsepower M40i
should set you back
another 10 grand.
TRAVIS LANGNESS: This is the
all new 2019 Chevy Blazer.
They've brought the name back.
And while it's not the rough
and tumble Blazer of the 60s
or 70s, or even the
S10-based Blazer of the 90s,
it is an aggressively
styled family crossover.
It's got two rows of
seating on the inside,
and it can tow up
to 4,500 pounds.
I, for one, am excited to get
it into the Edmunds office
and take it for a drive.
The 2019 Chevy Camaro
gets refreshed looks.
New headlights, new tail lights.
It also gets a new infotainment
interface on the inside.
And for this year, you
can get the 1LE track
package with the base
four cylinder engine.
Or if you want to, you can
still opt for two optional V8s,
including a supercharged motor
that puts out 650 horsepower.
This is the 2019
Chevy Silverado.
It's completely redesigned
but it feels a bit more
like a refresh.
We like it for its impressive
towing capabilities
and its quiet and
comfortable interior,
but it still ranked third
behind the Ram 1500 and the Ford
F-150.
Dodge keeps finding ways
to make the Challenger seem
new and exciting,
the obvious play
making it faster and faster
with the 797 horsepower Redeye
is a-OK with us.
But even in the V6
and Scat Pack models,
Dodge offers new tech, flashy
body mods and all-wheel drive.
Of all of the
American muscle cars,
Challenger seems most
sure of its audience,
focusing on bold colors and
quick quarter mile times.
If you're looking for
old school muscle,
it's right here in
a modern package.
The 2019 Dodge Charger
isn't a sensible car
but man, it comes in bright
colors, makes loud noises
and it goes real fast.
And also really with four
doors and a roomy cabin,
it'll work as a
family car and you
can drive it without giving
up your sense of adventure.
For 2019, the Hellcat
gets all kinds
of race specific technology, and
the Scat Pack and base models
get optional adaptive
suspension and new styling.
The latest generation has
been around since 2011,
but it remains one of
our favorite big sedans
because it blends
hot rod performance
with daily usability.
The Edge failed to impress
us in its early years,
striking us as an
underpowered and under
optioned mid-sized crossover.
But it's gotten better
every single year
and for 2019, it's packed
with safety features,
contemporary technology
and plenty of room
for passengers and cargo.
The Ford F-150 is the
most popular truck
in the United States.
It's more than just a
beefy pickup, though.
The F-150 is a versatile work
truck and a pleasure to drive.
The interior is modern
and comfortable,
and there are half a dozen
engine options for everything
from family cruising to
hardcore hauling and towing.
Tech features such as
SYNC 3 are easy to use
and many advanced driver
safety aides are now standard.
The 2019 Mustang
offers more options
for looking cool and going fast.
The BULLITT is back.
Ford continues to taunt us with
promises of a GT500 and more
than 700 horsepower.
But with a wide range of
pricing and performance
at even the base level, there
is a lot to like about Mustang
for 2019.
With trucks growing
ever larger, it
is a real joy to see the
return of the 2019 Ford
Ranger in a conveniently
sized package.
You can choose a crew
cab with a short bed
or an extended cab
with a standard bed,
and rear wheel drive,
part-time four wheel drive,
or the Fx4 off-road package.
There is only one
engine, the 2.3 liter
EcoBoost four cylinder.
Since the 2.7 liter EcoBoost
V6 is such an overachiever
in the larger F-150,
we think the 2.3 liter
is going to impress
in this smaller truck.
WILL KAUFMAN: The
Genesis brand may not
have been around
for a very long,
but they have been producing
some impressive cars.
The all new 2019 G70
is a small luxury sedan
that is good fun to drive.
Material quality and
comfort are good,
although the technology
features don't
come off quite as impressive
as price your competitors,
and you might find the
backseat a little cramped.
This car's lively
character on the road
sets it apart, especially
when it's equipped
with the 365 horsepower V6.
Prices for that V6 model
start at around $45,000,
while the four cylinder
equipped model undercuts most
competitors, starting
around 35 grand.
Be sure to check out my full
first drive video for all
of the details on this car.
TRAVIS LANGNESS: Ranked
fourth among plug-in hybrids,
the Honda Clarity gets three
different powertrain options.
There's the hydrogen
fuel cell, there's
the purely electric
model, and then
there's this, the one we
recommend, the plug-in hybrid.
The plug-in hybrid gets
48 miles of EV range,
and then it switches over
to use both the batteries
and the internal
combustion engine that's
rated at 42 MPG combined.
Now, while that's good,
it's not class leading
and it's not enough to make it
a top-ranked Edmunds hybrid.
The Insight is one of
Edmunds top-ranked hybrids.
It's all new for 2019 and
it's really good looking.
It's kind of sleek
and unassuming
on the outside,
not typically what
you associate with a hybrid,
something more like the Prius.
But it's also got a 52
MPG EPA combined estimate.
That's really efficient and
it's really nice to drive.
So the Insight might be the
perfect hybrid for someone
who doesn't want a hybrid
that looks like a hybrid.
This is the all
new Honda Passport,
and basically it's a two row
version of the Honda Pilot.
It's shorter from
front to back, but it's
got the same wheelbase, the
same V6, and the same nine speed
automatic transmission.
It's available in front
or all-wheel drive,
and we already know
that's going to have
class leading interior quality.
Basically, this is a more
off-road friendly version
of the Pilot as well, thanks
to an additional inch of ground
clearance, and the
shorter length of the back
means it's got a
better departure angle,
the extra height in front
means better approach angles.
We can't wait to get it
in-house and test it off-road.
This is the refreshed
2019 Honda Pilot.
You get some interior updates,
but the outside looks the same,
and you've still got the
same V6 and nine speed
automatic under the hood.
This is one of Edmunds
top-ranked SUVs
and it's the top-ranked
midsized three row.
If you're looking
to avoid a minivan,
this one should be right at
the top of your short list.
The Hyundai Elantra
is refreshed for 2019.
You get some different exterior
styling bits in the front
and in the back, but it also
gets some more standard safety
equipment.
And if you want a car that's
got a lot of bang for the buck,
we recommend taking a look
at the Hyundai Elantra.
It's got a refined and quiet
interior and a good ride
on the highway.
This is the 2019
Hyundai Kona Electric.
It's got 258 miles
of electric range,
and although Hyundai
calls it an SUV,
we like to think of it
more as a roomy hatchback.
It's also got great
driving dynamics for an EV.
This is the all new
Hyundai Palisade.
It's their three row
premium flagship SUV
and it's got room
for eight inside.
Under the hood, it's got a V6
and an eight speed automatic.
This is the all new
2019 Hyundai Santa Fe.
We've got an early look
at it on a first drive,
and we really like the optional
two liter turbo charged engine.
But when we get it in for
full testing at Edmunds,
we suspect it will be one of
our top-ranked mid-sized SUVs.
The standard Hyundai Veloster
offers 147 horsepower.
Well, this turbo model
makes 201 horsepower.
But if you opt for the
racetrack inspired Veloster N,
you get 250 horsepower, Or
the optional performance pack,
which ups it to 275.
It's definitely enough for
us to call this a hot hatch.
WILL KAUFMAN: We rated the all
new QX50 highly for comfort,
but that comes with a cost.
This five passenger SUV is a
pleasant place to spend time
and has a generous cargo area,
but the infotainment system
feels a bit dated.
And while the much vaunted turbo
charged variable compression
engine delivers
strong thrust, it's
a bit flummoxed by the
awkward CVT automatic,
and the artificial feeling
steering doesn't really
help matters.
The QX50 ultimately fell in the
middle of our small luxury SUV
rankings.
Prices for this vehicle
start around $37,000.
ELANA SCHERR: We've been
expecting a Jeep Wrangler
pickup and here it is.
The 2020 Jeep Gladiator is
powered by the Wrangler's 3.6
liter V6, which makes 285
horsepower and 260 pound
feet of torque.
The two liter eTorque
engine will not be offered,
but a three liter diesel, which
makes 442 pound feet of torque,
is in the works.
With Jeeps reputation
in the dirt,
Gladiator should be able to
eat the competition for lunch
when it comes to
off-road capability.
CARLOS LAGO: This is
the 2019 Kia Forte GT.
Basically, it's a pumped up
version of the standard Forte.
It gets 201 horsepower
from a turbo charged
four cylinder, which is a
big increase over the 147
in the standard Forte.
There's also some different
exterior and interior bits that
set it apart and
the extra power,
along with those different
trim level features,
should be enough to
set it apart and make
it an interesting competitor for
vehicles like the Honda Civic
Si.
This is the Kia Niro EV.
And as you'd
probably expect, it's
a plug-in version of
the standard Niro.
Gets an estimated
240 miles of range
and it makes a great competitor
for vehicles like the Chevy
Volt and the Tesla Model 3.
Depending on pricing, this
could be the bargain deal
in the segment.
We're excited to drive one and
get it around our test track
as soon as we can.
This is the all
new 2020 Kia Soul.
It's completely redesigned
from the ground up and man,
does it looks sleek.
It's got that floating roof,
some great new headlights,
and it's got six
distinct trim levels.
That's up from only three
in the previous generation.
It's powered by a two liter,
naturally aspirated engine,
and there's an optional 1.6
liter turbo charged engine.
But there's also
an EV version that
gets over 200 miles of range,
and the same great looks.
What you're looking at
here is the concept version
of the Kia Telluride.
It's big, it's bold, and it's
got a bunch of off-roady bits
on the outside.
It's a three row
crossover SUV, and it's
likely to compete with
vehicles like the Chevy
Traverse and the Ford Explorer.
But with all this
stuff on the outside,
it'll probably appeal to a
crowd that gets more use out
of the roof rack.
This is still the
concept version
and we're waiting on details
to be released, but stay
tuned for more information
after the Detroit Auto Show.
ALISTAIR WEAVER:
Over at Lincoln,
the 2019 Nautilus is
really an updated version
of the unloved
MKX, so he sort of
sits between
Lincoln old and new.
The interior particularly
still feels a bit dated.
It's competent enough, and there
are also good deals to be had,
but it doesn't have
the depth of quality
to challenge the segment
leaders, like the Mercedes GLC
and Audi Q5.
This new Aviator really
is Lincoln's big bat.
It's a six or seven seater rival
to Europeans like the Mercedes
GLE and Volvo XC90.
Now, we've get to drive
it, but we're certainly
impressed by the style and
quality of this interior,
and it will be very
competitively priced
when it arrives next summer.
CARLOS LAGO: That's
the redesigned Mazda 3.
Now we've always liked
this compact sedan
because it looks nice and
it drives really well, too.
This one looks to
be even better.
Just take a look
at the hatchback.
It's gorgeous.
Big news for this
car is it will be
available with
all-wheel drive and we
expect next year it will be
available with a hybrid drive
train, as well.
We don't know too much
about pricing yet,
but it shouldn't change too much
versus the current model, which
starts at around 20 grand,
but we really look forward
to driving this car.
We really like the MX-5 Miata.
In fact, it's our number
one ranked convertible
on edmunds.com, and the
reasons are obvious.
This thing is
really fun to drive.
Changes for 2019 are
minor, but we like
what they brought to the table.
The engine revs higher,
there's more power,
the suspension has been retuned,
there's some additional safety
features, and thank god, the
steering wheel now telescopes.
Now this thing starts
at around $26,000,
and you'd have to pay a
lot more to have more fun.
When it comes to
compact SUVs, you really
can't go wrong
with a Mazda CX-5.
It's neck and neck in our
rankings with the Honda CRV
and for 2019, this
thing looks like it
might be getting the edge.
There's a new top of line trim
called the signature, which
adds more luxurious features
like leather and ambient
lighting.
There's also Android Auto
and Apple CarPlay support,
and the big news is the
addition of a turbo charged
2 and 1/2 liter engine
that makes 250 horsepower
and 310 pound feet of torque.
Now all that comes
in at about 30 grand,
and we're really looking forward
to driving this updated Mazda
CX-5.
MARK TAKAHASHI: The
new A-Class proves
you don't have to break the
bank to enjoy Mercedes-Benz
levels of refinement.
It starts right around $30,000
and tops out above $50,000.
It has great driving
dynamics, luxurious comfort
and a ton of tech.
It's the first vehicle
for Mercedes-Benz
to include the MBUX
infotainment system
and we love it, seriously.
You should check it out.
Watch our first
drive of the A220
to find out why we rank it
at the top of the entry level
luxury sedan class.
That includes the Audi
A3 and BMW 2 Series.
The new GLE Class also gets
the MBUX system, as well as
a lot more space.
You can also get a
third row of seats.
Prices start right around
$55,000 for the base GLE 350,
but I think the one to get is
the GLE 450 for about $62,000.
That's because it's eligible
for the E-Active body control
suspension that leans into
turns almost like a motorcycle.
It's amazing.
So keep an eye out for my
first drive of the GLE.
At the moment, it's my favorite
among the BMW X5 and Audi Q7.
Sticking with SUVs, the
EQC represent the first
in an upcoming line of
EVs from Mercedes-Benz.
It looks a bit different
from the standard gas powered
Mercedes SUVs, but avoids
looking like the typical EV.
It'll have 402 horsepower coming
from two electric motors that
drive the front and rear
axles, with an estimated
range of 279 miles.
Inside you get
all the refinement
expected of a Mercedes, with
a similar interior styling
treatment as the bodywork.
It won't go on sale until 2020.
But we expect it to
start around $80,000.
There is a new
G-Class too, and it's
the first redesign in decades.
It's wider, has
more interior space,
and is way better to drive.
Despite it's better
on-road behavior,
off-road prowess doesn't suffer.
The 416 horsepower G550 is on
sale now for about $126,000.
WILL KAUFMAN: The
all new Nissan Kicks
is a subcompact SUV that
returns an EPA estimated
33 miles per gallon combined.
That efficiency comes
at a cost though,
with sluggish
acceleration and longer
than average braking
distances for the class.
You also may not want to
get your kicks on route 66,
as in our testing we found
the front seats lacked
long distance comfort.
There are competitors that drive
better or feel a little nicer
on the inside, but with prices
starting around $18,000,
the Kicks delivers personality
for not much money.
The Nissan Murano has been
lightly refreshed for 2019.
If you look very closely, you'll
see some exterior differences.
You'll also find some new
available active safety
features and driver aids.
The Nissan Murano is our
number four ranked midsize five
passenger SUV, thanks to its
comfort and nice material
quality.
Unfortunately, this refresh
doesn't address our issues
with the modest cargo capacity.
Prices for the Murano start
at a reasonable $31,000.
Like the Murano, the
Maxima has been lightly
refreshed for 2019, with some
tweaks to the exterior styling
and a few new interior details.
Of course, you'll
also find those new
available active safety
features and driver aids.
The Maxima is a
bit of an odd duck.
Nissan calls it their
full size sedan,
but it doesn't quite have the
space to compete in that class.
With prices starting
just over $33,000,
we think you can find a room
in your car for a little
less money.
ALISTAIR WEAVER: The big
news from Porsche in 2019
is the arrival of this, the
new 911, known to aficionados
by its code name 992.
The outside is
instantly familiar,
but inside it's all new
and a big improvement
over its predecessor.
And my, is it fast.
The Carrera S will debut
with a 443 horsepower engine,
with either rear
or all-wheel drive.
That hits showrooms
in the summer
but by the end of
the year, there'll
also be a standard Carrera
with a Cabriolet, a Targa,
and everything else to follow.
We drive it in January
and we can't wait.
The midlife refresh
for the Porsche Macan
is a classic case of it
ain't bust, don't fix it.
One of our top-ranked luxury
SUV gains detail improvements.
The way that it drives, a larger
touchscreen interface inside,
and a new signature LED
strip across the rear
which is a feature of
every contemporary Porsche.
We've already driven it, So
check out our first drive
on edmunds.com now and place
your order for delivery
next summer.
The big news from the
Porsche Cayenne in 2019
is the arrival of an updated
hybrid, the E-Hybrid.
It combines a three
liter gasoline engine
with an electric motor.
It will be quick, zero to
60 in under five seconds,
but don't expect to go more than
around 20 miles on electricity
alone.
In showrooms in the summer.
The GTS variants are normally
the sweet spot of the Porsche
range, and that's certainly
true of the new Panamera.
It uses a detuned version of
the turbo's V8 engine, detuned
that is to 453 horsepower.
We've driven it
on road and track,
and you can read the first
drive now on edmunds.com.
Regular Edmunds watchers
will know that we're
big fans of the RAM 1500.
It's our top rank
full sized truck,
and we own one as part
of our long term test
fleet, that's the V8.
But for 2019, you'll also be
able to choose a V6 eTorque
with a mild hybrid system.
It's marginally cheaper to buy
but should be a lot cheaper
to run, with official
consumption of 22
compared with 17
for the standard V8.
Well worth a look.
WILL KAUFMAN: We like the
all new Ascent's technology,
comfort and build quality.
It also comes with all of
Subaru's off-road goodness
baked in, with generous
ground clearance
and standard all-wheel drive.
You get all of the features
you expect from a three row SUV
with seating for up
to eight, including
plenty of USB ports
and cup holders
to keep everyone
charged and hydrated.
There are some competitors
that offer more third row
room and better on road
driving dynamics, however.
Prices for the new Subaru
Ascent start at around $31,000.
Subaru has introduced a hybrid
version of their Crosstrek.
The Crosstrek hybrid is
a small plug-in crossover
that gets up to 17 miles
of all electric range.
It also has good
off-road ability,
thanks to its ride height
and standard all-wheel drive.
On our YouTube channel,
you can check out
our comparison between the
standard Crosstrek and a Jeep
Wrangler to see just how
capable this platform is.
This hybrid model averages
6 miles per gallon better
than the standard
Crosstrek, but it also
comes with the price
premium of almost $8,000.
The Crosstrek hybrid is only
available in one trim level,
and that is the
highest trim level.
You'll get a lot of great
features and equipment,
but you'll also pay a
price of almost $36,000.
The fully redesigned Forester
may not look very different
on the outside, but it is much
more comfortable to sit in.
It also received all of Subaru's
latest available technology
features, including a
facial recognition system.
The Forester makes an
interesting alternative
to a small SUV like a
Honda CRV, with tons
of cargo and passenger space,
standard all-wheel drive,
and off-road friendly
ground clearance.
Sadly, the old optional
turbo charged motor is dead.
That means you're stuck with
a slightly sluggish, naturally
aspirated four cylinder.
And that also means that
competitive SUVs can
offer better towing capacity.
Prices for the Forester
start under $25,000.
CARLOS LAGO: The Toyota
RAV4 is currently
the best-selling vehicle
that's not a pickup truck,
so you're going to see a lot
of this redesigned version
right here.
It's got more aggressive body
work on the outside, sure,
but there's a lot
of improvements
underneath as well.
This hybrid makes around
220 horsepower and returns
about 39 MPG.
And with a price ranging
between 26 grand to 37 grand
for a hybrid limited,
it's easy to see why this
is such a compelling vehicle.
Big news for the
Toyota Prius this year.
It's available with
all-wheel drive.
Now there's an electric motor
powering the rear wheels,
and that's going to
help with traction when
you're accelerating
and it worked up
to about 43 miles an hour.
This will be a big
help for people
who live in colder climates
and have to deal with snow
but who still want
good fuel economy.
And as it sits, this version
still does 50 MPG combined.
The Corolla is one of
the best-selling vehicles
of all time, so it's
kind of a big deal when
there's a new one.
The hatchback came
out first last year
and now we have the
sedan, but we're
going to talk about here is this
hybrid model behind me, which
will be available
in the near future.
Toyota projects it will
have Prius-like fuel
economy of 50 MPG.
And hopefully it'll come with
those blue decals, right?
Yeah, what do you think?
See the wing on this Camry?
No, we're not at SEMA, this
is the TRD Toyota Camry,
and right there is
the TRD Toyota Avalon.
You may not think
of performance when
you think about Avalon and
Camry, but maybe you should.
After all, these have 300
horsepower V6 engines.
And these TRD versions
get upgraded tires,
upgraded brakes, pretty
nice looking wheels
and sport tuned suspension.
Consider us cautiously
optimistic about driving
these next year.
MARK TAKAHASHI:
The new Volvo S60
proves that Sweden
can be considered
against the German
sport luxury sedans.
Check out our first
drive and you'll
see that it has the performance,
comfort, and refinement to take
on BMW, Audi, and Mercedes.
With a starting price
just under $37,000
and Volvo's reputation for
safety, it has an advantage.
It also has
stunningly good looks
in an understated kind of way.
Wagons have been
overshadowed by SUVs,
but the Volvo V60
keeps the class alive.
It's based on the S60 and
has all the same features
and benefits as well as an
SUV-like cargo capacity.
We expect prices to
start in the mid $40,000
range when it goes on
sale early in 2019.
For more outdoorsy
wagon enthusiasts,
there's this V60 Cross Country.
Check back with us soon
for more information.
It's been a year since we
first drove the Volvo XC40,
but we're including
it in this video
because it's just that good.
And we ranked it very
highly in its class.
With the starting price
right around $37,000,
it competes very strongly in
the class of luxury subcompact
SUVs.
It sets itself apart
from the BMW X1, Audi Q3
and Mercedes GLA with its super
clean Scandinavian design.
What can I say?
The Volvo XC40 deserves
your attention.
CARLOS LAGO: The Beetle is dead.
That's right, this
isn't new for 2019.
In fact, quite the opposite.
This is the last year of
production for this car.
Volkswagen is commemorating it
with the final edition Beetle,
which is available for
the coupe for 24 grand,
and a convertible form like
this one for around 28 grand.
There some styling updates,
some feature editions and that's
really it.
And now we can take
a moment of silence
for this iconic nameplate.
OK.
This year saw the introduction
of the redesigned Volkswagen
Jetta.
Its interior is larger and
more comfortable than before,
and you get good phone support
through Android Auto and Apple
CarPlay as standard.
The sole engine choice
is a turbo 1.4 liter
that makes around
150 horsepower,
and it'll do 30
for MPG combined.
It's a compelling package
with a price range starting
between 20 grand and $28,000,
but we haven't rated one
yet, so keep an eye out
for edmunds.com's ranking
to see if this compact sedan
should be on your shopping
list.
SPEAKER: Thanks for watching.
We'll be testing all
the latest new vehicles
through the next year.

Camaro - Everything You Need to Know | Up To Speed
Donut Media:
Oh Shit Fire! Where’d you get that bitchin
Camaro? What chu got in there? 7 liter LS
with big cams blower popping out the hood. Bet that thing’s fast as hell. Dang thing’ll blow
the dang doors off a dang import no problem.
Can I get a ride in it?
Camaro, it’s angry, it’s stylish, it’s
bold and it's loud!
From Chevrolet’s point of view, the Camaro
was born out of necessity. From conception
to execution, it was created with one purpose
and one purpose alone.
To destroy the Mustang.
This is everything you need to know to get
up to speed on the Chevy Camaro.
(8-bit music plays)
This episode of Up To Speed is brought to
you by
Vincero watches.
Shoutouts to Vincero for sending me this cool
bad boy.
It looks good, it's really well engineered.
Speaking of really well engineered let's talk
about Camaros.
Chevy entered into the 1965 model year looking
to to overtake Ford in all their categories,
and their plan was 3-fold...
They introduced their Chevelle to compete
with Ford’s Falcon.
They completely redesigned the Impala
and
And they made them both available with the
race inspired Super Sport package.
The nimble Nova and the new Chevelle outsold
Ford in the small and mid-sized market, and
the ‘65 Impala dominated the full size American
Market. They sold over one million units.
A million. One comma, zero-zero-zero comma
zero-zero-zero. And as far as I can find
that record still stands.
Full-size, check. Mid-size, check. Small car
Uh check…
We won all of the three categories am I right boys?
WRONG.
What?
Mustang.
Ford debuted the Mustang in 1964, and created
an entirely new class, the Pony Car. How could
Chevy beat Ford in a class that we don't even
have a freakin car for?
Guys when we talked in January we said we
wanted to beat Ford in every class.
Who was on this? Seth I can't fire you 'cus you are
my brother and I love you but I am mad and
I'm not sitting by you at dinner tonight.
Here’s a surprise, like almost every other
two door sports car we’ve talked about on
this show. Someone at a competing company
saw a mustang and was like
“Dang dude, that’s a good idea. We need to do a car like that.”
Without delay- the same year, Chevy Head Bucky
Knudsen.
Laughs
The guy in charge of Chevy Bucky Knudsen took
the guys responsible for the record setting
Impala Irv Rybicki and Henry Haga, and told
them to make a new car that would beat the Mustang.
Chevy codenamed the project “Panther,”
and the team prioritized aggressive, sleek design
a wide wheelbase, and sport inspired
performance.
Then, in 1966, Chevy set another record-
this time for the biggest phone call ever,
Chevrolet general manager Pete Estes, announced
the Camaro on a 14 city conference call with
the press. He says the panther is dead, long
live the Camaro. Click. Straight up hangs up.
Everybody in the press is like "I think a Panther
died? What is, what is a Camaro?"
Happened, Google it.
Estes said that the name Camaro evokes the
camaraderie between man and machine
thank you
He also claimed the name was French. It’s not French.
When pressed about what the name Camaro actually
means he slyly responded, “it's a small, vicious
animal that eats Mustangs.”
Estes is the weirdest dude ever.
This first generation Camaro was released
in 1967, and it took everything that was great
about Chevy’s aggressive new styling in
the Impala and Chevelle, and turned that sh*t
up to 11.
(Engine revs)
It had a recessed grill, innovative
front and rear fenders and was available with
up to a 6.5 liter V8. With a Supersport, Rally,
and a Z-28 Packages, the Camaro, from its
inception has been associated with performance.
Ah yes, the iconic Z-28 performance package-
we’ve all seen it- but what does it mean?
Nothing. It’s just the internal Chevy
RPO code for the package. Does it mean anything?
Cars are fun.
The Camaro was an effort to compete with the
Mustang but Detroit’s a small town, and
Ford, aware that Chevy had something up its
sleeve, redesigned their mustang to receive
a bigger engine too. Even in its first year,
the Camaro, while an impressive, cool little car
was playing catch up to the mustang...
Again to compete with the Mustang, the second
generation Camaro came out three short years
later. For 1970, it got wider, pushed the
headlights outside of the front grill, had
a faster looking rear end, and a more prominent
rear fender. This is the fish face that people
love or hate. You know who loved it? Road
and Track Magazine. They named the 1971 SS
350 as one of the 10 best cars in the world
that year. And finally the Camaro outsold
the Mustang, though only a slim margin of
one thousand cars.
I mean that was close.
The Camaro, because of its origins, will always
be compared to the Mustang, but having outsold
it in 1970, it could now develop an identity
of its own.
Chevy was fine with the Mustang being as American
as Apple Pie. Because that meant the Camaro
could be as American as ROCK AND ROLL!
The 2nd gen had quite a few facelifts through
its 11 year run. Just like my little brother Tom.
Rest in peace. Most notable were the
variations to the grill. The Camaro kept getting
more Camaro-y, and while still competing with
the Mustang, it wasn’t in the “hey Mustang
buyers, maybe you’ll like this” way. You
now bought a Camaro because you wanted a badass
Camaro.
(Rock music playing)
The third-generation Camaro rolled out for
the 1982 model year.
Look, the 60s Camaro looked like the 60s,
the 70s camaro looks like the 70s…
and the 80s camaro? I mean freakin look at this thing!
It’s as 80’s as Reagan and Bush, or crimped
hair, or doing cocaine with your boss. Which is
apparently a thing that I totally missed out on.
In 1985, for my birthday, the Camaro was chosen
as the official racecar for the International
Race Of Champions (I R O C)
IROC IROC Ooohhh
and to commemorate,
Chevy rebranded the Z28 as the IROC-Z.
Jean jackets everywhere rejoiced!
The "20th Anniversary Commemorative Edition"
was offered in 1987, as well as a "25th Anniversary
Heritage Package" in 1992 .
Camaro. They like anniversaries.
The fourth-generation Camaro debuted in 1993
on an updated F-body platform. It retained
the same characteristics since its introduction
in 1967: a 2-door body with 2+2 seating and
an optional T-top roof or convertible.
In 1998, the 5.7 L LS1 was the first all-aluminum
engine offered in a Camaro since 1969
and this one made 325 horsepower.
Ok I know everyone, like the LS is starting
to get like uh oh my God it's so boring. But,
it''s a freakin all aluminum V8 that's the
size of a loaf of bread.
Weights less than a B16.
If you don't like LS-swapped cars you're a
hater. Don't be a hater.
The Camaro was still pushing that aggressive
reputation, but after 2002, production of
the F-Body platform was discontinued due to
slowing sales, and a deteriorating market
for sports coupes.
The Mustang was finally free to prance fancifully
across the roads of the American Countryside
without fear of the being stalked by a Camaro.
Until… in 2010 after an 8 year hiatus, a
totally re-designed, retro-inspired
"brand new” Camaro made its triumphant debut.
Finally, it was Ford’s turn to play catch-up
the 2010 Camaro SS had about 100 HP more
than the Mustang GT. That’s not even a fair right?
That's like me fighting any man on Earth.
If you want to fight me I'll put twenty-thousand
dollars cash on it. You let me know in the
comments, we'll set up a time and a place.
The only rule is it's to the death and your
kids gotta watch
The car looked great… It looked new and
it wasn't like, “HEY, I’M A CRAZY CAMARO!
LOOK HOW CRAZY I LOOK!” It was meticulous
in design and remained true to its 1967 origins.
It handled better than ever, and could outpace
the mustang on almost any track.
On April 1, 2010, the Camaro was named the
World Car Design of the Year at the World
Car of the Year Design Awards.
What the f**k.
And the winner is, the Chevrolet Camaro.
Is this real? Anyway congrats, we did it guys!
And the experience of driving it? People love
it. It was lighter and more nimble than the Mustang
and in 2016, the Z28 returned, and
made 505 Horsepower!
MotorTrend's 2016 car of the year is the all
new Chevrolet Camaro.
It was motortrends car of the year.
And today, 2017. Happy 50th Camaro. The 50th
anniversary edition had unique interior styling badges.
It’s 200 pounds lighter than
the 5th gen, and the 2018 ZL1 drops about
60 pounds more. Add to this the optional 650
horsepower? I’m telling you- it’s a small,
vicious animal that devours Mustangs. And
sometimes it turns into a robot and saves
Shia Leboof and Megan Fooks.
From it’s inception, the Camaro has had
one job and it has done it well. It was designed
to rival the Mustang, and aside from an 8
year sabbatical, it has been doing just that
for over 50 years.
That's everything you need to know to get
up to speed on the Chevy Camaro.

Chevrolet Caprice 77' - Prรฉparation et peinture ! Episode 8
Smells Like GASOLINE:
Hello ! Yes, you will have waited for this episode
8 ...
And it must be said that everything has taken off
more time than expected.
So let's attack from the beginning already, with
the items I dealt with in
first: the doors.
They remained yellow, in agreement with
the previous color of the car and they
have a lot of points of corrosion
will have to treat.
One of them also took a serious
stroke.
Go a bit of dent removal.
I then continue with a sanding rule
areas that will receive putty for
compensate for the remaining asperities.
Mixing with the catalyst is essential
so that the sealant can properly harden
and dry ...
Better to apply it.
During the drying time I will take care
of the driver's door, starting with
clean the corroded areas.
I then pass a rust converter.
Once he's done his job, I do not have
only to degrease the area and pass the layer
of zinc paint, which should protect
the surface.
I come back to my back door to apply
a sanding guide that will help me find
the last defects to sand or fill
with putty.
In parallel, I take care of correcting a
rather painful defect of the passenger door,
to know that the previous yellow paint
has a bad grip on the original layer,
and that I pulled out a fair chunk of it
by pulling it ...
Like adhesive.
The lower part was bare, I spend a
layer of phosphate primer and a layer
Finishing primer on the rest of the room.
I attack here the last door by dismounting
all the elements that will bother me in
painting work: the seal and the handle
exterior.
As long as you do, the hinges pass through
as well.
To obtain a good uniform grip,
I also remove the rotating brush
remains of flexible seal.
same treatment as before, converter
rust, degreasing, then protective layer.
It is better to sand the areas that will receive
paint to prevent it from tending
starting after we have passed others
layers over ...
Having now advanced quite a bit on the doors,
I will begin work on the cash register
: I start with the areas that have been
the poorly prepared on the occasion of
the previous yellow painting ...
Obviously these are the most painful places
to sand, unsurprisingly.
I also discover that as on the door
passenger, painting on a roof area
tends to go a little too easily
lack of quality preparation.
The longest thing is to find
a flat surface, which will allow a good
transition between the different layers ...
Flexibility and lightness to then ask
the putty on the deformed areas by the
wall that had collapsed on the car.
All faults must pass ...
My patience is put to the test.
The days of preparation are transformed
already in the week and there is still a lot to
do it again.
The sanding guide later leaves room
with putty finish that will help prepare
the future layer of standardization.I will talk about it
then.
I spend here a shot of pressure washer
to remove the pieces of paint and others
unwanted bodies to the success of a
complete painting ...
You have to pay special attention
to the protection of the arches of wheels, exposed
to moisture, especially that they are covered
by chrome elements that can retain
dirtiness.
To access the plate separating the lid
of the rear window, I deposit
said lid.
Note that I'm still reworking the form of
the right rear wing that I had roughly
arranged last year.We see some putty
right here.
The entrances of the openings were very
neglected also during the last
Complete ...
It is therefore necessary to take the time to
stripped.
Another element that suffered from the famous
Wall...
I work the piece on the spot not to
be bothered by the distortions that can
happen when we dismount a piece too
fine and long.
Once the sealant is dry, I can treat the
area that was previously inaccessible.
I also prepare and treat the edges
hood.
The right rear wing finally has a shape that
suits me, the edges are prominent
as it should be and everything fits that
that can be observed on the opposite wing.
Come on ... we're going to attack the paint job.
I'm not going to spend primer in the case
present, but rather finish the paint bucket
supplied with the car.
It's a white shade that I'm going to pass
without overloading and that I will sand by the
continued for the final painting.
The mixture is quite simple, a part of
paint, then half a hardener
to finish with 5 to 10% diluent.
I adjust the gun settings, and that's
left for this first test operated on a
door previously prepared.
Despite a small coulure that we can see
here we see that the rendering can be rather
correct for this first pass.
So we can continue with the rest of
door interiors and the outer face
for the one painted just before.
I conscientiously prepared the case
for this first pass. it is now
time to cover it with a homogeneous layer
of white, which will allow the final color
not to be darkened by nuances
below.
I started from the roof to continue
on the interiors of the openings and finish
by the most accessible surfaces.
This white paint has covered all
the nuances we could see previously ...
The entrances of the opening here ...
It's promising and the quality of work
will allow a good behavior in time and
a nicer rendering in detail.
Not having much charge, there is very
little shine and this is anyway
not the desired effect.
It will have to be repacked for the surface
be perfect.
Otherwise, the defects of this
white paint would inevitably end up
also on the painting that will land on it.
Obviously I did not fail to do some
nice drips on the front wings ...
Good to sand and repaint just before
finally ...
To finish with this complete!
The little test done on the driver's door
is quite promising.
So...
Wondering what is this color
definitive? Answer during the next
episode! Bye !
