    Remember when the parking brake used to be usable as an emergency brake? Back when people realized the idea was to have the most foolproof, purely mechanical design possible so there's very little that can go wrong with it.

    • @pohtoj1
      @pohtoj1 Рік тому +2

      exactly, and now older mechanical handbrakes have to work or cops take your plates and you fail MOT in Finland, i mean it has to be as powerful as the normal brakes so you can drive.
      Now new cars only beep if you loose brakes and try to use electric handbrake....

    • @stanislavczebinski994
      @stanislavczebinski994 15 днів тому +1

      I prefer a good old mechanical handbrake all day.
      The same goes for keys. A good old flip-key is a lot better than that keyless-nonsense. Because it also means you have a conventional steering lock - making it a lot harder to steal it.
      But it gets even worse: Now you can buy cars that are unlocked with your phone. So if somebody steals your phone - they can take your car along - and the insurance won't pay because of your negligence.
      Over here in Germany, many keyless cars get stolen by somebody with a big antenna who reads your keyless-key from outside your house. Most people keep their keys near the door - and houses are a lot smaller over here.
      Then they start it - and drive it over the Autobahn straight to Eastern Europe where they gut it for parts.
      BMW and Audi are their favorites. Easy to steal - expensive parts.
      Luckily, my 2006 Ford Focus ST hasn't such nonsense. They're quite rare here (albeit a lot better in many regards than the very popular mk5 VW Golf GTI) - and basically never get stolen.
      The later RS is a different thing. Highly valued - good ones going for 30,000€ - and, you guessed it - keyless. If you want to keep it - lock it to a lantern post with a bike chain.

      Buy the Wavian NATO gas can 20L which is slightly more than 5 gallons, 2 or more of em. Go on amazon and search for flexible spout for a NATO gas can and see if they have any that show a hole near the base that will vent for easy filling. If you don't find one then break down the one that comes with to remove the spring for easy open-n-close. Then get a small drill bit and find the blank spot along the seam on the spout near the base, that's where the vent hole should be but god damn cali carb regs made them leave it closed. Drill it but take it easy so as to not drill down into the fuel portion. Now be careful the tip is a brittle plastic and DO NOT insert into a capless gas fill the tip will get hung and probably break. Learn from my experience.

      I've never had a problem with operating my gas can. I also don't have the same design as the one used in the video. All you have to do is twist the child proof lock, then push the spout against the rim of the gas tank to get the fuel to flow.

    The parking brake on my Renegade cancels automatically as soon as you move the throttle. Also, the computerized traction control system in these new Jeeps works by applying breaking force to the spinning wheels, and reducing throttle input. In certain situations, it will apply so much breaking, and throttle reduction that the vehicle just won't move. It will feel as if it has no power. you can turn off traction control to get that power back in to play.

      I suspect that in this case, it's because many of these cars are rentals, and it's possible that people sign waivers to say they won't offroad the vehicles when they rent them.
      Aside from that, vehicle cloning is a real thing - yes I realize that your license plate is visible when you drive down the street, but you would have to be physically seen by the person looking for your exact car to clone.

She was pulling out of our driveway, as she was putting her seatbelt on, didn't get it fastened fast enough, and it "just froze" (her words). The front bumper got grazed by a box truck. Well, that was IT for that hunk of trash, it was never driven again by anyone in my family, it was towed back to Chrysler, and I stopped payments, didn't care about any ramifications as that was totally unacceptable in the name of safety! She is now the proud owner of a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500.

    Yes Rudy is right about the new cans! We have to give them to our renters when they head to California and they are the worst!

    I had an 2003 pathfinder with a bad fuel gauge so it was run out a few time by myself and the previous owner I’d imagine. Just like Matt said, the fuel pump eventually went out. Props to Nissan for putting an access port under the rear seat, had that fuel pump changed in less than an hour

    Matt is a smart guy. Praising his wife so she’s less pissed off! 😅

      Can neither confirm nor deny that praising the spouse is the best way to keep her from getting too angry.😬

    Matt's a smart man giving props to his wife! And those new "safety" gas cans are dumb like the new fuel fillers on a Ford!

      Oh man, I've spilled so much gas with the two that I use for garden tools. I'm considering buying some of those VP Racing cans to use instead. My shed reeks of gasoline from the "safety" cans 🙄🙄

    i think you are the only recovery service that i know of that doesn't always carry a full jerry can of fuel with them. Also I never leave town without a full tank. I guess that's just a military thing.
