    The 1.5L 1NZ-FE 4 cylinder in my 5 speed 2004 Echo RS has 400k miles on it, and it's still running like brand new. I just put a new muffler on it for the first time since new. This car has saved me at least $100k in replacement vehicles since I bought it. It's basically paid for my house. Best purchase I've ever made.

Honestly I don't EVER want the headache of a regular gas engine vehicle! I'm much happier with a Hybrid the only issue and honestly it's NOT in my opinion, is the HV battery! but honestly im ok with replacing it 15years later (if) I'm still deciding to keep the car Honestly if anyone is thinking about getting a hybrid Go FOR IT THEY ARE NOT ENDLESS MONEY PITS! 😂 THEY ARE ACTUALLY VERY RELIABLE AND VERY MAINTENANCE FRIENDLY MUCH MORE THAN A REGULAR GASOLINE CAR! HYBRID CARS ARE AWESOME AND AS A BONUS THE "SYNERGY DRIVE SYSTEM" FOR TOYOTA HYBRID VEHICLES IS WAY TO SMART TO LET YOU MESS ANYTHING UP SO DONT BE FOOLED BY FOOLS TALKING BAD ABOUT HYBRIDS They ARE NOT BAD AT ALL!!

I know they use them in the taxis here in South africa that get absolutely abused with little to no maintenance, but they still go strong. Just wish it had hydraulic lifters instead of the shim system as it requires maintenance every few years.

    I love our '18 RAV4 hybrid XLE but and this is just me and I admit it. I am not a fan of the CVT. It works as advertised and has no issues but someone who learned to drive on a manual and drove mostly automatics, this was my first experience with a CVT. Just not a fan. If it was the only thing you knew it would be fine but not when compared to a manual or auto. The 2.5L engine is phenomenal.

    So no mention of the legendary Toyota Diesels that came in the Landcruisers. 1HZ and 1HDFTE. I know multiple with multiple Landcruisers that have driven them in some of the hardest country on the planet and some have gone around the clock. I know one guy who has 8... One has done 1.4 million kms, one just over 1 million and a few that are 400,000 to 800,000. Also to mention the 1UZ. Great engine for drifting and jet boating. I ran twin 1UZ’s in a jet boat and ran it 8-10hrs a day everyday during summer.

    Question - Scotty, I love your videos!!! You're the best on UA-cam. Per your suggestion, I picked up a used 2013 Toyota Camry in excellent condition. It has high miles (190K) but it will work perfect for my soon-to-be-driving son and daughter. I noticed in eco mode there's a very subtle shutter at 40 mph. I'm worried that the torque converter is the suspect even though it's not a problem yet. Can I just drive in sport mode and avoid the "flex lockup" of the torque converter and avoid any damage?

    I’m frightened and should be .
    A friend bought a 2007 Jeep compass and she drove it for 2 months before the transmission died!
    So!
    I bought the car from her figured I’d fix snd sell !
    Well , I paid her $2000
    For Jeep and I put 3000 into Jeep .
    It’s looks very good in and out so I got the transmission fixed and we’ve been fixing things .
    Got a battery, brakes. Serviced everything
    Once I replace the motor mount bushings I should be done .
    However !
    It’s got a rattle in front that quiets down if put in Neutral
    It has power rides smooth other then the rattle .
    And hint what the front rattle might be ?
    I think I’m going to replace linkage because that’s where I think the noise may be coming from

      Too old, LiFePo4 is not the same as LiPo ( which uses a polymer not phosphate. LiFePo4 has a charge range and dies when full drained, You can suck a polymer battery dry. Polymers like frequent charging but Ion lithium ones due not. Both have cold and heat issues. The are actually additional Lithium battery types as well. NiMH acts like either Lithium batteries mentioned
