      *_30:22_**_ Ford does NOT use a prancing horse that is Ferrari and note a working horse has his head down and eyes forward. This is significant because in the old days, they deliberately would put straps or reins in horses to force their heads up to sell an appearance of elegance. A real working/running horse has his head down and eyes forward, symbolism of hard working and determination._*

    ALEX! Long time watcher, of your channel, Love your content, please please prese keep it up! I already know you will. If I could get your advice. I have a 2005 CLK500 my wife and I love that car. On the rare occasion we can find a baby sitter for our 8 children, we love taking it out for a little bit of fun. It recently started leaking antifreeze, I think it's coming from the radiator. Do you know, is that a likely place for it to leak? Looks like it's coming from where the molded plastic joins the aluminum core. Thanks for your help!

    The classic Freddy "It's _your_ problem now." I actually kinda love how people get so excited at first, until they actually take possession, and then realize just how much of a project it is, but then they get more excited the longer they work on it. It's almost a special form of vehicular Stockholm syndrome, but it makes for great long form content.
