Hey Scotty, what about the new Civic vs Corolla. What should I buy?
0:00 Toyota Corolla
8:58 Ford Maverick
22:08 Toyota 4Runner
Just saved me time, thank you
Fantastic. Just fixed the problem with our 2011 sienna. The interior lights came on and off at will. Draining battery at night. Everyone said it’s old. Get a new vehicle. But turns out it needed rear door slider switches. The rubber covers had come off! 100$ fix. 323000 km. 200000 miles. We are happy. Thanks to our mechanic brothers who remind me of scotty.
Met someone with a2002 sienna and 500000 miles.
Last forever. 😊🇨🇦❤️
Thanks Scotty. 😎
Mazda deserves a spot in that lineup.
Thanks!
@@BigBadJohnDiesel my MAZDA BT 50 in europe ehehehe , the problem they dont sell mazda bt 50 in Portugal anymore ehehe , but my mazda bt 50 is the best truck to buy it eheheh
growing up and being an Adult while Scotty is in his prime Doing Car UA-cam Channel... what a time to be Alive...
Scotty, I pray your around for another 100 years. You are so FULL of information, and ALOT of fun to listen to, with ALOT of knowledge. THANK YOU!!! Ken
He will be alive for another century for sure! Guaranteed!!!
Another??? You think Scotty is a 100 years old?!?!?!
@@melvin4553 Dumbledore
He will be! Noticed how ge get exercise while talking? 😂
@@Snorlax220 you, cuz I'm just joking
Scotty, I have been a follower of your channel for years, you always provide the best information and give your honest opinion. Thank you for this video.
I am the original owner of a 4 Runner, 2004 with a 4.7 V8, sport edition. 184 K Miles. Yes, timing belt change-- on my third. I have never had any issues at all. Tight! Drives as if it were new! Most miles were highways. Total Toyota quality! I have maintained it to the extreme degree, full synthetic oil its whole life, differential the same. Transmission total flush at 65 K-drain and drain and fill after. It has to last because I am old and cannot afford to buy new. It is my baby, I love it. When I die, whoever gets it will have a gem. I use a good shop for maintenance. One of the mechanics offered me 20 K for my baby! He knows what shape it is in. No rust at all as I live in Western Oregon. I also put in after-market leather, and heated front seats.
Here in Aus you still commonly see 90's LandCruisers running down the road in pristine condition. Toyota know how to make vehicles that last forever. You just can't go wrong.
I know a guy that bought a brand new 1999 4runner and all he did was change the oil. It's still running strong with 900,000 miles on it.
@@OhioRiverFisherman Wow....Almost 38,000 miles a year huh? That is a lot of driving.
I own a 4x4 called Brutas (2010) Nissan Pathfinder rear wheel drive 4.0 liter v6 and no turbo. I have 90 K on it and drive 4000 miles a year. I know the feeling , I always said take the ultimate care of a vehicle I hope to have mine for another 10 years. My Ford Explorer is a 97 , ultimate care 4.0 Liter SOHC and never had anything major done to it. Maintenance and driving habits are everything. Mine is garage kept.
@@OhioRiverFishermanno engine goes 900k with nothing other than oil change. No vehicle goes 900k with nothing other than an oil change. Even the million mile tundra toyota owns admits they had to replace the transmission and perform multiple levels of maintenance and repairs on the engine.
This guy is a blessing we don't deserve
Yes, start-stop is nothing but wear on the engine.
Thanks for the video 👍👍
I just love Scotty and his knowledge and sincerity about cars, hope his channel never end!!
I have the 40th anniversary 4runner and I love it
Thank you Scotty!
Nice review Scotty that Corolla hybrid looks nice . 👍
The tech i like is lane keep assist, lane departure warning, front crash protection (slow/stop car if you dont) adaptive cruise control, these can save your life.
I agree. The Lariat is even better with lane centering and adaptive cruise. It is almost like an autonomous driving vehicle. I have demos on my content.
#1. 94 Celica
Just bought 24 Corolla Hatchback SE!
Same gray color!
I just bought a 2024 corolla hybrid le in Florida for 24k, and I am so satisfied with it. Used cars are ridiculously expensive right now and getting 60mpg in this economy makes it so worth it in the long run. Scotty makes me feel so confident with the way he reviews vehicles.
was that 24k with taxes and license?
Big fan myself of the Toyota hybrid system but depending on how much you drive a year it could take 6/8/10 years to pay off the drivetrain premium. That being said the convenience of not having to fill up so often and getting a high mpg feels good and is what I would choose too haha. Enjoy the new ride!
Before or after taxes? What about the 1095$ delivery fee and other fees? Where did you buy it from?
@@CroakerOutdoors I think that's true for most of the gas vs ev options, but the Corolla seems to be one of the few where it does not take that long to recover the cost.
@@CroakerOutdoors you are also forgetting maintenance. Hybrid break pads last basically forever and the 12v should last much longer. Ours lasted 10 years. Wear and tear on gas engine is also less on a hybrid so less chance of engine maintenance
Scotty is the man.
Scotty....1 of a kind...
i like the toyota 4runner
I bought 23 ORP 4runner ive had it almost a year and absolutely love it. Prior had 06 Tacoma sold it to a friend its still running strong with 270k+
Bought my Maverick for a daily driver to and from work and I love it. Great little truck
Good one
You the man, Scotty!!!
A cartruck 😂. Now I can take my catdog for a ride. 😅
Thank you
God Bless you Scotty, thank you.
Just bought a 2023 Civic Sport, Non turbo. Getting 40 mpg.
The Toyota sells for 45 grand here in AZ. Makes a big difference.
The Mavericks starte at 40K from the dealers.
Good on you scotty 👍🌟
Looking at a new Rav4 hybrid. Any other similar vehicle you would recommend? Thoughts on the RAV4
Scotty remembers like me, in the early 80's, the SUPERCARS accelerated @equal or WORSE than this COROLLA!!!😮 10.4s 0-60 was a HOT car! I grew up in muscle car era, born '60...
You are hilarious! Funny thing is I relate to you! Your so right! Ty
I have a 2001 ford explorer, it is my first car and it is great for all my needs. Runs great and is one tough little suv. I replaced my shocks, front wishbones and control arms. Recently my my cv axles started to pop, so i will look into replacing them soon. Everything else is great, and as of this comment 199,656 miles on the odometer
i literally just bought a Ford Maverick XLT because of this video. Scott, you've cost me $33k. thank you for all your insight these years!
I just bought a 2023 Tacoma because of Scotty!
Same did he tell us to get one !?
Scotty what's your take on 2018-current Nissan Armada?
I bought a 2023 Corolla Hybrid earlier this year. Didn’t get that great deal, but the driving and mpg is great. Never getting rid of this
How much did you pay if you don’t mind? Im about to take on the Las Vegas Toyota sales crew for the same vehicle. Thanks in advance
Hi Scotty! What's your opinion on Rislone Hy-per Fuel Octane booster?
How do I permanently disable the auto stop/start on my 2022 Kia Telluride? I hate it.
If the government was not behind electric vehicles, very few people would buy them and by the same token, many companies would avoid making them. Electric vehicles eat up a lot of natural resources in their manufacturing process.
Exactly the same can be said of cars in general, without tens of trillions in straight up free infrastructure, literally no one would be driving a private automobile right now.
@@davik9003hence the importance of making high quality goods out of quality materials that’s easily repairable
That’s just Old thinking. everything takes time to ramp up. And it’s coming fast.
A Toyota dealership in Turnersville, NJ messed up my new Camry purchase. But they still had my $500 deposit and I was still willing to buy a car from them.
BUT the sales manager, you know the guy that comes to try and lock in the sale when the salesman can't. Well he came at me with an ATTITUDE! He managed to snatch defeat from the mouth of victory. They had a 21 point lead with 30 seconds left on the clock and their Sales "Manager" Screwed it up. He got insulting and said why don't we just refund your deposit you're not happy. I WAS disappointed with the situation but was still there to buy a car and I was putting $21K down on it! I was unhappy with HIS attitude!
Scotty for the win!
Nice color too
I just bought my brand new 2023 Toyota Corolla LE hybrid in June and I LOVE it. My first tank of gas (break-in driving) I got 62 miles per gallon. I went to a tire shop and purchased a wheel and tire for my spare. Life is good. 😅
Scotty, is the kia Stinger a good car to purchase new or used?
You can get the XL with the ecoboost. I got one with AWD, 4K tow. The transmission cooler is beefier and other parts are better.
Yes, I uploaded content showing all 8 items you get with 4k tow. It's better torque is even faster off the line.
Scotty you are a hoot! I love ya and I am new subscriber.. Just curious where you are from??
QUESTION: Does one need the special edition of that 4Runner in order to get those same features, or can one get a non-special of a 2023 and accomplish the same thing (for the most part)? Thanks!
I was a financial analyst for a manufacturing company, and we had 1 of our 6-7 plants in Mexico. We would run reports to determine what the cost per measurement was for each plant each month.
Sure, the labor in our plant in Mexico was 1/3rd of one of our U.S. plants, but there were several issues that ate the savings and made that plant less cost efficient as our 2 best U.S. plants.
Turnover was way too high. This negatively impacted the quality of the product, which increased the number of products that couldn't be sold and warranty claims.
There were several other problems, but the turnover is what caused quality issues, IMO.
Scotty. I watch your videos before looking for cars. You are my go to for car recommendations. Thank you!
❤
Mines not a hybrid, but I recently got a 2020 Corolla SE Hatchback with only 5500k on it. So far I've been loving it. For "just a Corolla" they're honestly really nice little cars, and come with a lot of modern features and comforts. Before this I had a 2012 Mini Cooper, and that thing was fun to drive, but it made me want a car that's just reliable. I'm really hoping to make this Toyota last. Want to try to take it to 150k, and with the mileage I put on that's going to take forever.
Hi, What are your thoughts on the hyundai cruz?
Tried and true advice that yu can take to the bank.
How do you feel about 2011 Mazda CX-7 GX
have a ford expedition eddiebauer 2008 , how can i know if i have to replace the whole cadilacconvertor or just the o2 sensor ?
Gosh I wish I could have you with me in trying to find our forever vehicle. My husband wants to retire in a few years. We are by bar none not rich in money but we try to take care of what we have and my van we bought second hand almost 7 years ago I trying to decide whether to keep it because I love it or find something newer. My van is a 2008 Chrysler Town & Country Touring. So we are searching for something similar that is comfortable for us to ride in as well....Love your video info always..Blessings
scotty is back on the suds
Scotty would make the perfect dry martini for 007, shaken not stirred 😂
You should check to see if any subscribers want to feature one of the newer Priuses. They looks a lot better.
I want to replace the radio in my prius but I am told that the car computer is tied into the radio so I can't replace the radio. I have seen kits through Crutchfield to put a different radio in my car but I am not sure if it will work well or not. Anyone that's done this and can weigh in??? Thanks.
Yep hope they keep making cheaper reliable cars and pickup trucks in petrol and diesel we still need our vehicles to last us 20years into the future before we rebuild or upgrade them if they keep making quality Toyotas we all will be happy 😊 and its great Toyota are still making a strong full chassis under their rigs 👍
I love my 2021 Toyota Corolla Hybrid LE. Getting 70 mpg city and only paid $20,600 off the lot brand new.
That's a great deal!
Do you plan to keep it for 300k+? If the answer is no, great deal. If yes...$$$.
"Ergodynamic" 😂 Never change scotty
what are you thoughts on Chevy Tahoe?
I know you do not like Nissans, but my 2010 rear wheel drive Pathfinder 4x4 is a gem, 90K always serviced with the best Synthetic oil and garage kept I hope to have it a long time . No CVT with a 4 liter rear wheel drive regular automatic transmission it should be with me till I leave this earth.
Thank you Scotty for all of your hard work everyone loves it❤
Me too.
Scotty, what do you think of Subarus?
In 2011 i bought a brand new Corolla S....120k miles later, other than common issues, I've only replaced the alternator. Next year my son is getting his DL ....he already knows that's his car.
WE ❤️ SCOTTY!!!
Hey, "Cletus" lost a toof again !!! LOL
are the 2024 corolla's as good? and i cant get a new 2022 ford maverick...i have to wait 6 months for a 2024...none available
Those new Corolla Hybrids really are a great deal for a daily driver/commuter car! I hear the seats are comfortable, too!
They're not such a great deal. That 23k that Scotty mentioned doesn't include the $1095 destination fee, taxes, fees, license, port installed accessories, dealer markup etc. Here in Dallas, you'll pay 30k OTD for a new Corolla Hybrid LE and 29k OTD for a new Corolla LE
❤😂thanks I am not a driver but I really want now about cars Thanks for showing this I have grand kids an want out do them 😏🤓😝✅💭❤️
Those 4 Runners are nice. I would own one. I also like the Tundras but I'll probably never be able to afford one especially new. 😅
2.0 Ecoboosts engines are very reliable and definitely are tried and true now. Been out a little over a decade and haven't had any major issues really. Very dependable engine with decent power figures.
No tranny issues? Ford sucks for that problem
@@Mark-ly4lq My 2015 ford fusion with the typical 6 speed has been 100% reliable and zero tranny issues. Shifts totally fine. Idk about the 8 or 10 speed, but I am picking up my Ford Maverick in December with an 8 speed. We'll see. Engine though, been 100% totally reliable and dependable.
How about the Maverick AWD?
i have a question hope it's answered....2018 nissan altima bought for nissan 4 months ago....engine light started to blink. code came up with rod bearings...towed to nissan....they said they updated the computer brain and that fixed the problem...r they screwing me over so they dont have to replace the motor
I've gotta chance to buy a new Tacoma 2023 with V6. Dealer says it's the last one they will get.
Should I buy it? I'm 73 so light use, maybe one I can pass down to a grandkid.
Vehicles have been “hybrid” for quite a while now, hence the battery, alternator, and all the electrically driven systems that the main combustion engine is reliant on for operation. I know perhaps it’s a play on words and the newer hybrids actually have electric drive motors verses combustion, but still. I always thought getting rid of that electric starter with those old hand crank starters was interesting. Although I have fortunately never had to fight one of those things to start them. Imagine using the electric starter external to the engine. One less component under the hood. Under the hood of some vehicles could use a little more room to work around. Also, I always thought it was amazing to start a vehicle with a manual transmission by just popping the clutch!
Are we railing against atkinson cycle engines like the modern 2gr?
I agree how does state get their road tax for those
My 2008 ford ranger 3.0 liter engine is the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned only item need replacing was the heater fan, Tolstoy cost approximately 100 dollars. Wish ford could make all the cars they make this reliable.
The 3.0 have valve problems and get very bad gas mileage. I had a 2003 Ranger. Only got 18 mpg and it was stick. I seen f150s with the 5.0L get better mileage.
I would love a 4runner but knowing I can get 2 new corollas for less it doesn't make sense. Sure 4wd would be great but I wonder how many use it more than twice a year while owning the vehicle.
Hey Scotty, you mentioned Android Head units in this video - you think you'd ever do a modern day version of your old radio install video for one of those new (cheap, ideally) ones with a backup camera?
Preach
You went easy on the mustang and charger owners
As a Minnesotan, I had to laugh at Scotty referring to Northern MN as a "whacko place" LOL. Truth be told, there are a lot of whackos up there 🤣.
I have a new 2023 Maverick Hybrid front wheel drive and love it! Basic LX model with trailer hitch only option. $24,000. I've used it for all sorts of hauling assignments with my 4X8 trailer.
My wife also likes the truck! She refused to drive my old F-150. So far always 40+ MPG. All in all, it's perfect for my needs.
I got a 2022 ford maverick 2.0 ecoboost larrit awd I love it I payed 37.000 but I've got offers to buy it at 47 but I said no
@DanielRundellpnw833 I love the Maverick so much I bought 2 that I show on my channel"s videos.
I can not decide between a Ford Maverick and Nissan Frontier, which one is better.??

It's why I have my 07 Classic Silverado 1500.
@@raoultesla2292i learned manual in a 76 Scottsdale C10 with 350 and 3 on tree, easily converted it to a 4 speed auto in the 90s.
I have a 2022 ford maverick xlt fx4. 30,000 miles later, still love the thing. Mostly highway miles, ranging from 29-32 mpg. Incredibly smooth riding. 16 gallon tank hurts to fill up 😂 but I love the truck
Yes Paul, I have an AWD in my videos from Park City. The overall fuel cost is not much more than my Mav hybrid.
We have a 2015 4 runner Trail premium paid $38K not much diff than the one you tested. We get 24-26 MPG on the highway. Has 95K no problems.
“You want head” and the spiderman meme 🤣 15:06
Toyota Corolla and Prius shared the same platforms for a long time. Its just a preference towards styling. Corolla looks better and less embarrassed. At least the new Prius did change my mind
what's the best used SUV or Crossover vehicle for less than $25,000
I love my Maverick. Best vehicle I have had in a long time. Fyi, my last truck was a Tacoma. Great truck. My second car is an LS430. Best car.
What do you think about Hyundai Santa Fe 2024?
I love Scotty too and I’m learning a lot I wish there were more honest mechanics around especially for us women. Thanks again scotty
3FT on the sticker means Mexican Ford truck (completed vehicle) 11th digit is R=Hermosillo, Sonora, MX plant, like my 2002 Focus.😁
