10
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:07.040
We have a good day today to
talk about cars. And really I

11
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.799
wanted to talk about summarizing a car. We talk about winterizing a car.

12
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.159
What do what does the summer?
What does heat bring to a car?

13
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:18.079
Of course today it's a little cool, as you know. We have this

14
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:22.920
now and then God teases us a
little with summer and then bam and then

15
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:27.560
we get teased again. But it's
okay, it's fun and listen. You

16
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:32.680
can call us right now with problems, questions and complaints, not just about

17
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:38.079
cars, but basically anything you want. Remember what we say. It's better

18
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.040
to call early the first inkling of
a problem or a hunch you have a

19
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:47.400
problem. You can't just throw up
your hands and wait yesterday, So call

us three oh three, seven to
one three talk now. I always give

21
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:53.439
that number, that's the station's number. But really, you actually have a

22
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:57.120
better chance of getting through when we're
not when we're crowded. If you call

23
00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:02.319
three oh three Martino, three oh
three six two seven eight four sixty six.

24
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:06.719
What happens is when we're here,
we answer. When we're not here,

25
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:10.120
you leave your number, and we
promise to call you back to get

26
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:14.080
you on the show. It's impossible
not to get on the show, especially

27
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:15.599
if you don't want to wait.
You call three oh three Martino twenty four

28
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:20.439
to seven. That's three oh three
six two seven eight four sixty six.

29
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:23.439
Of course, my YouTube morons welcome
there on, and we have our Facebook

30
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:29.879
flunkies and and everyone else who downloads
us tons and tons and thousands and thousands.

31
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:36.159
So let me get to waiting.
A guy calls and says his mother's

32
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:42.479
house was stolen. Somebody filed a
fake promisory note and quit claim deed or

33
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:46.960
something like that, and they got
a notary and filed it with a county.

34
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:51.719
And it was in twenty sixteen.
She found out about it and did

35
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:54.319
nothing. It's too late. She
lost her house forever, she lost it.

36
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.960
He said, well, we tried, and now I'm getting involved.

37
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:01.360
I said, well, I'm sorry, but it doesn't matter. There are

38
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:07.879
statutes of limitation. Statutes of limitation
mean just that now it goes from discovery

39
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:12.639
or from the original incident, and
then it goes outwards. So, for

40
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:16.560
example, there are some statutes on
fraud that go, let's say three years

41
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:23.560
from the incident and two years from
discovery, whichever is sooner. So you

42
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:27.719
got to kind of chart it out. So if you discovered it right when

43
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.599
it happened, you have two years. If you discovered it a year after

44
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:32.639
it happens, you still have two
years, right, because you have two

45
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:37.759
years or three years whichever is first. Now, if it happens if you

46
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:42.280
find out in the you know later
on, you only have until that third

47
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:45.800
year. Now, I don't know
what the statute was on stealing this house,

48
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:49.319
but I'm pretty sure no matter what, I don't know of any statutes

49
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.360
that go beyond any that go beyond
six or seven at all, those are

50
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:58.000
called and then they are called absolute
statutes, the limitation, which means it

51
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.400
doesn't matter if you discover it,
doesn't matter when it happened, It doesn't

52
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:04.759
matter what happens it. The only
time you can go back is if it's

53
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:09.479
within that. But ten years is
usually ten to twelve years is an absolute

54
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:14.080
statute, meaning it doesn't matter what
anyone did to you in the past.

55
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:17.600
I mean, I've had people with
a securities account with investment accounts call me

56
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:20.920
and they've been lied to, cheated
and ripped off. They're gone. They'll

57
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:27.199
never be able to go after that
financial advisor ever, or the investment advisor

58
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:31.279
ever. So keep that in mind
when it comes to problems. Try to

59
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:33.959
get as much help. It doesn't
matter if you document that you tried and

60
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:41.720
couldn't get help. It just is
called a statute of limitations for a reason.

61
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:46.360
I think it's pretty liberal when it
comes to med mal tom medical malpractice,

62
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:50.040
it is. Yeah, I think
it goes on for six maybe I'm

63
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:54.759
not sure. Don't think it's pretty
liberal because if let's say somebody left an

64
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:59.000
instrument in your abdomen and you know, ten years later they find it.

65
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:01.439
I think you may be able.
I don't really know. I actually I

66
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:05.519
don't know about I'm sure we can
find out. The various statutes of limitations,

67
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:11.040
and the statutes of limitations are both
set state and federal depending on what

68
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:15.720
we're dealing with, or sometimes both
and and the states can actually make them

69
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:21.160
better than federal, so or better
for the consumer. Now here's the deal

70
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:28.040
when it comes to wrongdoing. That
doesn't mean you can't go after somebody in

71
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.839
other ways, but crime and civil
matters, you know, you can go

72
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:35.560
on and make reviews, you can
tell people about them. You can still

73
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:41.120
go after these people that way,
but you're not going to have much help

74
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:46.519
anyway else anyway, any other way
three three seven one three talk so again

75
00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:54.519
a reason to call. Now on
the topic of that woman who had her

76
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:59.000
house still and somebody said to me, Tom, if she had tidle lock,

77
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.920
it wouldn't have happened wrong wrong title
lock would have done nothing. And

78
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:06.639
people you know, don't pay for
title lock. I'm telling you that that

79
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:11.680
service is free by the county.
If your address is on file with the

80
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:15.439
county as owner, you'll get notified
anytime anyone tries to file anything on your

81
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:19.720
property there that's free. So what
is title lock? It would have notified

82
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:24.639
her, It wouldn't have stopped it. Title lock does not lock anything.

83
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:31.439
It does not lock, it notifies
you. Big fricking deal. Here's the

84
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:35.560
other thing. Listen to this one. She already knew about it, right,

85
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:41.680
so it doesn't matter. She did
know about it, she just didn't

86
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:46.199
do anything about it. So don't
give me that nonsense about title lock.

87
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:49.800
Oh do you know there are people
steel houses every day? Well, yeah,

88
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:55.240
people do steal houses and title lock
will not prevent it. It'll notify

89
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.959
you. You still have to fight
it, still have to fight it,

90
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:01.079
and most counties are. You're doing
this service free. And by the way,

91
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:04.800
that's why I don't think you hear
them advertise that much anymore. So

92
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:09.560
you can go and find out what's
recorded on your property, when it was

93
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:14.600
recorded, who recorded it. And
it's truly something that people do try to

94
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:17.480
get away with with someone who's older. They try to get away with it

95
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:21.000
with people. Unfortunately, I'm going
to tell you what they do. These

96
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:27.279
thieves. Do you know who they
target? They target people who are older,

97
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:34.000
especially if they have rentals and as
collectors, bad collectors and gutter service.

98
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:38.360
Oh that's a long story. But
people who go after people to collect

99
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:42.519
debts old debts, knowing those debts
are old. The same kind of people

100
00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:46.879
go after titles that go after these
old debts. They're the same kind of

101
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:51.439
people, and they target the same
people every time. Older people and Hispanic

102
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:58.000
people. Why. I don't know, but if there is an Hispanic surname,

103
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.560
they don't know if they're Hispanic,
but they the surname, you know,

104
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:07.639
Valdez, Garcia, Lopez. They
hear these names and they ghost him

105
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:11.839
or go after him. I don't
know, people, you know, I

106
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:15.319
didn't make up those rules. Maybe
it's not politically correct to say it,

107
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.360
but that's what the hell happens.
That's what the helles language barrier, Tom.

108
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:22.160
I think they assume that these people
are not on top of it.

109
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:26.639
That's what they do. And older
people, they assume they're not on top

110
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.000
of it. Okay. For example, collecting debts, it's called gutter service.

111
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:37.279
After six years, speaking of statutes
supplementation, after six years, a

112
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:45.440
creditor can no longer take you to
court or get a judgment. Okay,

113
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.840
what does that mean? They have
no teeth. You may awe the money,

114
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.039
but if you go past the six
years of when it was due,

115
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:56.240
not when the bill was made.
Obviously, because if it's a ten year

116
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.279
loan, you go past six years, it's when it was due or the

117
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:05.879
last payment made. Six years.
They have to come after you when it

118
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:11.639
was due or last payment. So
here's what they do. These shysters,

119
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:18.080
these sobs, these creeps. They
go to companies that have aging debt beyond

120
00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:24.200
six years and they say to the
company, you're never going to collect this.

121
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:30.000
You wrote it off. But and
if you sell it, or if

122
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:33.360
you make money on it, now
you've got to go amend the deduction you

123
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.039
already took. So why don't you
just give it to us for a penny.

124
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.480
We'll buy it for a penny,
and then if you sell it,

125
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:45.679
it's off your books and you'll never
have to report a gain. Ever,

126
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:50.360
it's a deduction. We get it
for a penny. What do you care

127
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.159
what we do with it. So
they buy one hundred of them for a

128
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.600
dollar. The company who cares has
to claim a dollar of income against that

129
00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:05.120
deduction. Now they take this debt
and they look for people who are pigeons

130
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.000
and they say things like you owe
this money. And people say, but

131
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.960
Tom, isn't this too old to
come after? And I said, yeah,

132
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.919
but they're still going to bug you. But worse, they're going to

133
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:22.759
trick you. And here's the trick. They say to you, listen,

134
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:28.080
we'll settle this whole thing. Let's
keep it out of court. Well,

135
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:31.919
they hope you know that. They
can't take you to court. They hope

136
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:35.600
you don't know that. But they
say, how about just make one payment

137
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.960
and let's settle this. How about
twenty five dollars. And you're thinking I

138
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:45.840
owe twenty five grand. They want
twenty five dollars. That's a good deal.

139
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.639
Now why did they do that?
Why did they any guesses? Guys,

140
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:56.799
why did they do it? Card
restarts absolutely starts it over. You

141
00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:58.840
make a payment. Guess what they
have six years to come after you.

142
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.000
You just it's called no vasion.
They've made a new agreement. Now you

143
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.360
think it's a complete settlement. But
they never really say that once you pay,

144
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:13.039
no matter what you pay. So
if it's over six years, they

145
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:16.879
cannot come Well, they can command
to you, but they cannot do anything

146
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:20.639
ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, Hey, Tom, if

147
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:24.039
it's after six years, what happens
on your credit report? Does it go

148
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:26.679
a way or does it say that
forever it goes away? I think on

149
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:33.919
your credit report after seven I believe
there's different there's different ones. Bankruptcy I

150
00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:39.799
think is ten years. I think
it might be seven. The reporting agencies

151
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:43.240
really can be kinder if they want
it doesn't have to stay on, but

152
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:48.000
it depends on what they promise.
I know there is some law to that,

153
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:52.399
but I don't know exactly what the
laws are for certain things. But

154
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:56.919
in any case, the credit report
can have things on it or not,

155
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.799
and that's a separate thing altogether.
But in any case, what you need

156
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:07.440
to do is to and by the
way, if it is on your credit

157
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:09.879
report, Tom and you want to
tell them it's inaccurate, there's no way

158
00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:13.399
for a credit report after six years
or seven years to ever go back and

159
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:16.519
document a debt. They have to
take it off. So maybe that's why

160
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.320
they take it off. Three oh

Hey Tom Martino here three o three

173
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.240
One of my YouTube war ons that
I signed up for Adams County website for

174
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:28.960
recording notification. It wasn't automatic.
Let me clarify this about what the counties

175
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:33.440
do. If something is recorded in
your name and your address is on file,

176
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.399
you get a copy of the recording. No, they don't notify you.

177
00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:43.639
You get a copy of it eventually. And MC's right about that.

178
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:50.039
It doesn't they don't notify you,
but you can sign up for free notification.

179
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:54.320
If you don't, you're still gonna
get notified when something is recorded against

180
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:58.639
your home. Let's go to you
know you'll be sent a copy. Now

181
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:03.120
that might be longer than you want
to wait. So as MC posted on

182
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:09.919
my YouTube stream, you can sign
up for notification with each county. Jeannie

183
00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:13.200
or Janey? What's going on?
Jane? Hi, Yes, I'm having

184
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:18.039
a problem with the halfway house in
Bryan and Adams County. Okay. Are

185
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:20.440
you part of the halfway house or
is this someone you know? No,

186
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:26.480
it's my son. What's going on? He's been out for a couple of

187
00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:31.960
months because he's been doing so good. Well. Now he ended up going

188
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:37.159
a Sunday that just tends to go
do a U A and uh the next

189
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:41.000
yesterday I took him back and they
told him to come into a U A

190
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:43.000
and then they told him that his
UA was hot, so he went.

191
00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:46.759
So the son went back for U
A and had to go back to the

192
00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:52.039
halfway house. Yes, so he
went to go do a U A again

193
00:14:52.840 --> 00:14:56.080
and that's what they told him.
He goes Mom, they just came and

194
00:14:56.120 --> 00:15:01.440
told me that my UA is Oh, you don't do that, Nathan.

195
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:03.799
And so right now, They told
him that he had to stay inside,

196
00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:07.240
and Nathan told them that to go. Hey, you know that, but

197
00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:11.480
what you guys are doing is wrong. You guys doing a mistake. Well,

198
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:15.399
are you sure it's wrong? I
mean, and listen, I'm not

199
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:20.080
accusing your son of anything, But
how do you know? How do I

200
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:24.159
know? Because my son doesn't smoke
weed's been there for a year. Okay,

201
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:28.039
listen, Janey, did you guys
do your own UA to just check

202
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:31.200
it out? What I'm saying is
is it poss I'm gonna do that?

203
00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:33.360
And he didn't. The guy that
I was gonna do it, I was

204
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:35.960
going to go buy it. And
he goes, no, he goes,

205
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:37.159
what do use doing it? He
goes, We're not going to go for

206
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.720
that. Wait a minute, I'm
not talking about No, I'm not talking

207
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:46.000
about for the halfway House. Here's
what I'm talking about. True story.

208
00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:50.200
I had a friend I don't want
to get into details, yes, who

209
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:56.480
got in trouble at work for a
hot ua. He swore to God he

210
00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:03.399
never ever ever did anything what he
had done. He was at a friend's

211
00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:08.559
house and he ate some candy that
was sitting on the table. It was

212
00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:12.399
a gummy just one. He didn't. It wasn't enough to make him high,

213
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:17.399
but it was enough to get into
his blood. I'm asking, why

214
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:22.000
wouldn't you do that just to see
why big guy did. We wanted to

215
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.039
take a test and for him because
he was at the halfway House. No,

216
00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:29.879
I'm saying, on your own,
why don't you do it? Don't

217
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:32.919
We were going to do that,
but they didn't let me. No,

218
00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:37.720
no, no, you see,
no one can stop you. You can

219
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.960
do it for you. No,
no, no one can stop Janey.

220
00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:47.080
I'm not talking about an official one
from them. You go to Walgreens,

221
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:52.919
you go somewhere and buy a UA
test and have your son do it,

222
00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:57.240
just for your own piece of mind. That's that's all I'm saying. And

223
00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:02.480
then figure out. So anyway,
what at the halfway House say when you

224
00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:06.079
said to them, I know my
son didn't do What did they say?

225
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:11.400
They just go, well, that's
we don't know what he's doing out there.

226
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.720
Now go well, why do you
think though? No, seriously,

227
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:19.359
most likely the test is not inaccurate. Now they could have had his file

228
00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:23.039
mixed up. Maybe, yeah,
that's what we definitely Nathan told him,

229
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:26.160
But you guys probably got but he
mixed up because Nathan's not going to do

230
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:30.039
that. I promise you. Nathan's
been going through this for a year.

231
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:36.039
La listen. I'm not disputing it, Jane Janey, I'm not disputing it.

232
00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:37.960
But really, if he has a
hot you wave, so what is

233
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:41.960
the consequence? What does he have
to do? Now? Now he stood

234
00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:47.720
there, Now he has to wait
until the other you wait goes through and

235
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.279
they okay, so they hold on. That's good. So they did a

236
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:56.160
second one. Yes he did.
It was hot. Okay, Now here's

237
00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:57.440
what I want to know. Here, here's what I want to When did

238
00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:03.359
he do the second one? Yesterday? Oh? Good? When are you

239
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:07.680
going to get the results? I
talked to my I talked to my other

240
00:18:07.759 --> 00:18:10.000
side, and he goes, Mom, that you have a result by Monday,

241
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:14.519
Tuesday. They're telling naked till Friday. Now, but he's not sitting

242
00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:17.640
in the halfway house, is he? Yes? They kept him there.

243
00:18:17.960 --> 00:18:22.680
Oh, I'm trying to tell you
he has You know, this is not

244
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.960
right and there's a lot of things
that's going on that I can have my

245
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:30.119
daughter in law. You know,
you sound like a wonderful mom. I

246
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:33.720
want you to do me a favor. Please, we will contact you.

247
00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:37.039
Listen, there's nothing we can do
if there's a second test. Right now,

248
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:41.079
let's wait for that test, Katschina, let's have her come back on.

249
00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:45.559
I mean, really, there's nothing
we can do at this point until

250
00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:51.640
we get this other test and then
let's figure it out. I'm going to

251
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:57.400
market pending and let's just wait,
because really there's not much we can do

252
00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:03.559
until this, until this second test, I promise Janey, we'll we'll talk

253
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:07.279
to you about it. Okay,
three h three seven one three talk now,

254
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:11.160
Chris, what is your comment on
Janey? What is your comment?

255
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:15.000
I was basically going to say that
at the halfway house, once they take

256
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:18.039
your analysis, if it does come
up hot, because there is a possibility

257
00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:22.880
for false positives, they would automatically
like normally remand him and then retest him

258
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:27.559
again. And that's what and that's
exactly what's going on. Yeah, because

259
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:32.400
it happens, it happens. They're
only like ninety seven ninety eight percent effective,

260
00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:34.759
so still too out of every hundred, someone will get caught, but

261
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:40.799
it's not actually hot. Okay,
Okay, the system in place and they

262
00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:44.559
will treat him right well, I
think so. I don't think they want

263
00:19:44.599 --> 00:19:47.599
to keep them there for God's sake, So they're looking for excuses to keep

264
00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:51.640
people out, don't you think the
government? Yes, but the halfway House

265
00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:53.640
gets paid by a number of bits
being used. Oh oh oh, do

266
00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:59.680
you have personal experience in this,
Chris. My brother has had some issues

267
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:03.799
with the laws in the past,
was it And did he ever come up

268
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:07.400
hot when he wasn't? No,
he only gave up hot when he was

269
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:10.400
hot. When I was in the
army. When I was in the Army,

270
00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:14.400
we used to test people all the
time, and if your analysis came

271
00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:17.720
up positive, then it goes through
a different, more extensive test for a

272
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:22.359
mobile mass spectrometer to actually take every
chemical in the urine. So that's probably

273
00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:26.000
what they'll do. It's not peina
cup. It's actually goes under a mass

274
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:29.359
spectrometer at a lot the way.
I just want to know something and maybe

275
00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:32.839
you don't know, Chris, But
now we're on this discussion. Do those

276
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:40.880
cleansing teas and drinks work not the
way they advertise? Yeah, I just

277
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:42.240
in the morning. If you think
about it, it's going to be most

278
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:45.759
concentrated in your blood. So if
they tell you to drink a lot really

279
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:48.759
quick in the morning, you're going
to just dilute it. But those things

280
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:52.039
are so sensitive you, I mean
you would literally have to probably drink gallons

281
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:55.880
and gallons a day. Do you
know how long you're say, how long

282
00:20:55.920 --> 00:21:00.200
does pots stay or drugs? I
don't know how long they stay in you're

283
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:03.440
urine. I know they stay in
your blood probably longer, right right.

284
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:07.839
Once again, it depends on how
quickly you're flushing stuff out of your system.

285
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:11.559
The Army standard was fifty nineograms per
milli leader, So you could have

286
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:12.839
forty nine and you wouldn't be hot, but fifty would be hot. But

287
00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:15.839
how long do you know how long
it would take to shed all that naturally?

288
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:19.839
Well, it depends on how concentrated
it was in your system. Like

289
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:22.400
if you're smoking pot every day,
it's going to be much higher than person

290
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:26.160
who has it once. Yeah,
so anywhere from seven to twenty eight days

291
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:29.920
they say, on average, oh
marijuana, okay, thank you. Chris

292
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.880
is a world of information. Hey
Tom, it seems to be like his

293
00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:37.599
only punishment is he has to stay
in the Astley house over the weekend all

294
00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:41.160
right now until and like it comes
back hot again. What's the big deal?

295
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:42.720
I mean, he's down. Yeah, I know, I know.

296
00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:47.119
I think the big deal is the
mom's afraid it's going to come back hot

297
00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:52.279
again. And I think the really
big deal is she's having some doubts.

this. You can drink the water

318
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:37.160
anyway, it's car Dave got my
car people here. Took a few calls

319
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:40.759
up front if you want to call
on anything, cars or otherwise. Three

320
00:23:40.759 --> 00:23:45.400
ozh three seven one three talk three
oh three seven one three eight two five

321
00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:53.680
five. Do you know that among
young people, Google is taking a backseat

322
00:23:53.720 --> 00:24:00.720
to TikTok for traffic and searching?
So you know how you want to information?

323
00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:02.880
I used to go to Google.
I don't go to Google anymore for

324
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:06.200
information. I mean, Google's okay
for searching, but it's not logical,

325
00:24:06.599 --> 00:24:11.640
and I thought, how stupid that
they don't build into Google just AI.

326
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:15.519
So you just asking a question,
it comes back with search result like Bing

327
00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:18.200
did. Now, Microsoft, in
my opinion, is going to pull a

328
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:22.680
way ahead of Google because of the
copilot and Bing. They got it built

329
00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:26.880
right in. So I go to
there and I'll ask questions and get answers

330
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:32.319
and also other websites. Right TikTok, I don't even understand how do you

331
00:24:32.359 --> 00:24:37.960
go to TikTok for information? What
they do is they're getting other other I

332
00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:41.160
was gonna say morons, but I
don't want to insult my YouTube guys and

333
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:45.480
gals. Ah, So what do
we call them? TikTok They're below morons.

334
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:48.079
They're like, I swear to God. Now, I'm not saying I

335
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:51.880
don't love some of the pet stuff
and the kids. I mean, I

336
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:55.160
mean, some of this stuff is
really fun. I'm not talking. I'm

337
00:24:55.200 --> 00:25:00.160
not about these frickin' ifasols. What
do you call them? They're so well,

338
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:03.960
they're so stupid, it's beyond like
when they try to tell you how

339
00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:08.640
to do stuff, TikTok tards.
I wonder if that's politically correct. TikTok

340
00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:12.839
tards. Man, do I love
it? I do it? TikTok tart.

341
00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:18.319
That's a good topic. I mean
a good name, TikTok tart until

342
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:22.759
I get a complaint, Until I
get a complaint, TikTok tards, they

343
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:30.240
go on. I'll never forget during
COVID the freaking advice they had. Do

344
00:25:30.279 --> 00:25:34.920
you know that one woman came on
and the dawn spray poam she was rubbing

345
00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:40.400
all over her body and says it
will kill all COVID so she won't get

346
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:47.200
COVID. And she did. She
did this demonstration and she didn't have like

347
00:25:47.759 --> 00:25:51.519
she had like you know, nothing
like provocative, but she had like a

348
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.440
sports broad and work out shorts and
then did all of her bodies. It's

349
00:25:56.480 --> 00:26:02.200
telling young people. She was about
probably eighteen, telling people how to avoid

350
00:26:02.240 --> 00:26:11.440
COVID with dawn dishwashing liquid foam.
Anyway, so TikTok truly is outnumbering Google

351
00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:15.960
on searches. So people search for
the for the other tards on there,

352
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:22.599
the other TikTok tards ttts. They
they search for them for information on how

353
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:29.279
to do stuff. It's and it's
way way way out pacing YouTube, YouTube

354
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:33.559
now and Facebook are for old folks, you know. I mean, In

355
00:26:33.640 --> 00:26:38.200
fact, Peutie Pie, who was
the one of the most prolific. He

356
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:42.680
was the number one subscribe and this
I think he retired because of all of

357
00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:47.119
this, because I don't think he
could take the transition, and he would

358
00:26:47.160 --> 00:26:51.480
be considered old anyway right now on
TikTok, I think he might be in

359
00:26:51.480 --> 00:26:59.200
his forties. And he made millions
and millions and millions on tick Peutypie was

360
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:04.319
the number one of revenue for a
long time. Well anyway, three oh

361
00:27:04.359 --> 00:27:07.920
three seven to one three talk is
our number? Three oh three seven one

362
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.279
three eight two five five oh And
I asked the car guy, so still

363
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:15.680
the number one complaint in autos?
Jesse, you haven't heard this, have

364
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:19.200
you? What is it? I
have no idea. Okay, I took

365
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:25.160
my car in for service. It's
been there for three months, or has

366
00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:27.960
been there for two months, or
has been there for ninety whatever, it's

367
00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:36.000
too long. Now we have to
stop blaming COVID. No, I swear

368
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:41.160
to God, we have to stop
blaming COVID. Could this possibly be still

369
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:48.559
the trickle down from COVID from that
Measley shut down? Come on? Why

370
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:52.640
it? Did people adjust to a
new normal? Did suppliers say we're no

371
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:56.440
longer going to wear house what we
used to we're just not going to do.

372
00:27:56.640 --> 00:28:00.160
I think that's it. Absolutely,
you know that in the aviation in

373
00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:04.960
business, and again I like talking
about ABE it's because I love it,

374
00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:08.920
but I want to tell you what
they do. They're worse than the car

375
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:14.599
business. You know what they do
now? Production runs upon demand, So

376
00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:18.400
that means if you need something and
you put in an order, they don't

377
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:22.759
say it's back order. They say
it's not even being made yet until they

378
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:27.279
get orders exactly. Then they do
a production run. So I got to

379
00:28:27.319 --> 00:28:30.680
go around begging people to put an
order in or just breaking it for them.

380
00:28:30.720 --> 00:28:33.759
So no, no, I'm just
kidding. But you know what I

381
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:37.839
mean. It's like, did cars
ever tell you that? Did you ever

382
00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:45.519
hear wait for a production run?
Yes? Absolutely, so they literally hold

383
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:51.160
everything for a production run. Yes, so even the manufacturers are not warehousing.

384
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:55.319
So what the hell do people do? I mean? I think one

385
00:28:55.319 --> 00:29:02.759
of the key factors people in shopping
for an item is not only the dependability

386
00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:04.599
of the You want dependability, you
want value on all that, right,

387
00:29:04.720 --> 00:29:08.680
you love it? I did.
Another one should be how are people getting

388
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:14.640
serviced? So if I had to
go out and ask and we'll do that

389
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:18.359
coming back, I want to know
where the car, the vehicle to make,

390
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:23.279
the model, whatever you have,
whether it's the exact unit or the

391
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:29.599
category of a car. I would
never ever have to wait for anything.

392
00:29:29.839 --> 00:29:34.279
And it's plentiful and it's a good
value, the best all around. Well,

here three three seven to one three talk

409
00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:07.400
seven one three eight two five five. Let's talk to Oswaldo. Oswaldo,

410
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:14.039
what is happening, sir? What's
going on? Thank you for taking my

411
00:31:14.119 --> 00:31:19.640
call, Senor MARTINOZ. What's happening
with your engine? I got a question

412
00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:26.000
because, uh my, my,
my trug is a twenty fifteen. It's

413
00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:30.039
not a new truck. But I
had how many miles on it? One

414
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:34.400
seventy a right now at this point? Okay? And how many on the

415
00:31:34.440 --> 00:31:40.920
engine? It's the original engine.
Everything should be okay, same mileage,

416
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:45.359
okay, So what's going on?
Well, when the light engine light came

417
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:51.039
on about two months ago, I
went to a Dodge dealer and I got

418
00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:56.680
a quote. They told well,
I wanted to get a I diagnosed what's

419
00:31:56.720 --> 00:31:59.759
going on, and they told me
your engine is bad. We will have

420
00:31:59.839 --> 00:32:04.599
to replace it, but it has
to be a rebuilt engine and they quoted

421
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:09.519
me thirteen thousand Bullpark number. All
right, did they say they were going

422
00:32:09.599 --> 00:32:15.319
to rebuild it or exchange it?
They will put a new rebuild it,

423
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:20.640
rebuild the engine. Guys, what
do you think? And yeah, is

424
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:23.279
that a diesel or what engine you
have in that turn? It's a guess

425
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:28.319
aline. It's a fifteen hundred guests, So it's the hemmy or what motor

426
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:32.000
is the HEMI? Yes? Is
that heavy on the price? It's a

427
00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:36.319
little head. It's up there.
It's easy around ten. Yeah, that's

428
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:38.119
that. I was thinking ten.
You're always gonna pay a little more.

429
00:32:39.799 --> 00:32:44.079
Well, that's my question. But
I would be more concerned if you need

430
00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:47.839
the engine, Like what did they
say is wrong with the engine? I

431
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:52.720
know one hundred and seventy miles is
a lot of miles, but those those

432
00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:55.920
engines, I don't know. I
mean they have cam problems. So they

433
00:32:55.920 --> 00:32:59.960
can definitely have cam problems, but
you can't have to do the engine if

434
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:02.559
they have camra Now, what would
be involved in doing that? It's an

435
00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:07.519
overhead cam, I'm assuming, so
you can get to that without cracking open

436
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:09.680
the whole thing. Yeah, we
take the valve covers off and get in

437
00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:14.119
there and see what's going on with
the cams, depending on what's wrong with

438
00:33:14.160 --> 00:33:16.599
the cat. Although the first thing
I would do is before I even start

439
00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:21.759
shopping engines, I would just make
sure you need it. I'm not always

440
00:33:21.960 --> 00:33:28.880
uh, I'm not always confident that
dealers get it right. Okay, That's

441
00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:32.000
where I'm going because uh, I
would like to get an independent making all

442
00:33:32.039 --> 00:33:37.400
right, So where are you?
Where are you located? Oswaldough, I'm

443
00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:43.200
basically in Noora. Okay, Well, here's the deal. I think you

444
00:33:43.319 --> 00:33:45.000
need to go over to share.

then that advertise on the show, thank

494
00:37:53.800 --> 00:38:01.360
you. Josie So Jr has a
transmission, JR. Is this one of

495
00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:06.920
my YouTube more on JRS? Or
is this another jar? Okay? What's

496
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:12.480
happening? Bro? So I got
I got a real quick better politically Oh

497
00:38:12.639 --> 00:38:19.360
okay, TikTok twitch, TikTok twits. That's way better than what Jeff Vick

498
00:38:19.480 --> 00:38:24.880
came up with from Kimmeer transmission anyway, talk twits. Okay, I like

499
00:38:24.960 --> 00:38:30.360
that A real quick comment about what
you were saying, buying according to how

500
00:38:30.400 --> 00:38:35.079
you service. This is the reason
I stay away from solar. Oh,

501
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:37.639
you're right. It failed. When
you get a solar guy on there,

502
00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:42.760
they disappear. You know what,
you know what, I'll have to I'll

503
00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:45.440
have to own that. Over the
years, we have had solar people who

504
00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:52.320
had all the best intentions and didn't
stick around. Now, the good news

505
00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:57.119
is we only had one bad guy
that took some money toward the end and

506
00:38:57.199 --> 00:39:00.679
didn't do the sis. Only one. All the rest phase down their business,

507
00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:06.239
okay, and the manufacturer warranties were
still in effect even the bad guy.

508
00:39:06.280 --> 00:39:10.360
The manufacturers were still in effect.
But I am really thinking that probid

509
00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:17.039
Energy dot Com and Redrocksars dot Com. I really believe that those two.

510
00:39:17.079 --> 00:39:21.039
I'm not going to say they're here
to stay forever, but they are really

511
00:39:21.079 --> 00:39:25.719
really good and they're using stuff easily
serviced by the manufacturers or others. But

512
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:31.800
right now they're good people, really
good people. And Probid Energy dot com.

513
00:39:31.840 --> 00:39:35.360
You know, I know Mark,
and he works for a guy that's

514
00:39:35.400 --> 00:39:37.920
been there for years and he wants
to continue. And you can look them

515
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:44.159
Upprobid Energy dot com now on the
Red rocks at redrocksars dot com. But

516
00:39:44.440 --> 00:39:49.119
anyway, so I agree with you
though I totally agree with you on that.

517
00:39:49.280 --> 00:39:52.800
So what's going on? So?
I got a twenty fourteen f one

518
00:39:52.880 --> 00:39:55.079
fifty. I want to do a
transmission service. I got an askt inmate

519
00:39:55.159 --> 00:39:59.119
on it. Now the question is
what should I do? Should I do

520
00:39:59.480 --> 00:40:04.000
a drain and feel a flush and
feel and one one part of the question

521
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:07.440
I have is on the twenty fourteen
f one fifty in the estimate, nothing

522
00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:10.639
was said about replacing a filter.
Does that happen a filter? All good

523
00:40:10.719 --> 00:40:15.559
questions so on transmissions go through it, when you do the filter, when

524
00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:19.880
you do flushing, all of that. Most transmissions we can change a filter,

525
00:40:19.960 --> 00:40:22.000
particularly on some of the front wheel
drives are internal to the case.

526
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:24.840
You can't access them, so you
know some of them are drain and fill.

527
00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:29.480
Some of them if you flush,
you know on that, particularly on

528
00:40:29.519 --> 00:40:30.760
that one, you can drop the
pan and change the filter, and I

529
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:35.639
recommend you do. They have a
problem with the seal on those that actually

530
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:37.599
shrinks. So usually about seven out
of ten of them we'll drop that pan

531
00:40:37.960 --> 00:40:42.239
and a filter falls out with the
pan, So you'll definitely want to change

532
00:40:42.239 --> 00:40:45.440
at the same time, depending on
which set up you've got, you have

533
00:40:45.519 --> 00:40:47.599
to take darn your half the color
apart to get the pan off, so

534
00:40:47.920 --> 00:40:52.000
they can be costly. Now are
you telling me, though, that there

535
00:40:52.039 --> 00:40:57.480
are some that don't You can't remove
the filter, Yeah, I mean notoriously,

536
00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:00.360
Honda. I mean that's ever since. So what happens? Do they

537
00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:04.239
eventually clog up? Or if you
change your fluid every thirty thousand, you're

538
00:41:04.239 --> 00:41:09.199
going to help yourself tremendously. But
they cause problems down the road. So

539
00:41:09.639 --> 00:41:14.719
would you suggest a drain and pill
or to do a conventional service work?

540
00:41:15.119 --> 00:41:19.119
Do a conventional service work? No, don't do a chemical flush. Never

541
00:41:19.159 --> 00:41:22.599
do a chemical flush. So but
no, I would do a conventional service

542
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:25.920
drop the pan, change the filter, and refill the fluid. All right,

543
00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:30.280
I appreciate it, Okay, thank
you? Three oh three seven one

544
00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:37.199
three talk seven one three h Q
five to five. So Andrew wants to

545
00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:45.039
talk about gasoline. Andrew, what's
going on? I was just curious if

546
00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:52.079
if there is any difference between like
the Costco or Kruger you compared to like

547
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.239
show or film. You know,
that's a good question. And then among

548
00:41:54.280 --> 00:42:00.159
the among the brands, themselves.
Really. I love that question. What

549
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:04.519
the hell the different? I often
wondered, if I get X amount of

550
00:42:04.639 --> 00:42:08.840
octane what I need or grade?
Does it matter about the brand? Truly?

551
00:42:09.000 --> 00:42:13.679
Do you guys really over the years
think brand names matter? And how

552
00:42:13.719 --> 00:42:17.280
do brand names even differ? I
think the only difference is the additive pack

553
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:21.800
is some of them put in exactly
you know, the gas is gas.

554
00:42:21.840 --> 00:42:23.320
It all comes from the same place. It's just what they add to it.

555
00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:30.519
But they add substantially some detergent.
Okay, you and your car will

556
00:42:30.519 --> 00:42:32.400
tell the difference. If you go
to Costco nine out of ten times.

557
00:42:32.480 --> 00:42:36.719
The one time you go to Shell
or something, it's gonna know the difference.

558
00:42:36.760 --> 00:42:40.440
Sometimes it'll what do you like your
car? I use Costco? Yeah,

559
00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:45.639
okay, so you go for price
as opposed to brand. Does anyone

560
00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:49.280
actually search out a brand? I
don't think. When I'm driving cross country

561
00:42:49.320 --> 00:42:52.320
do you think I care? I
just tell customers to stick with one.

562
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:54.760
So if you go to Costco or
Shell, why is that a stick with

563
00:42:54.800 --> 00:42:58.760
that? Because your car gets used
to those additives. Come on, you

564
00:42:58.800 --> 00:43:00.920
go to another gas, you get
another odditive. It can throw a check.

565
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:05.719
In July, the cat code oxygen
sensor code like, and I stay

566
00:43:05.719 --> 00:43:08.519
away from the little bitty mom and
pop shops so much for quality control.

567
00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:13.159
Those are jobbers or whatever they call
them, independence and they just buy from

568
00:43:13.199 --> 00:43:15.639
different places at different times, right, sure, so what do they get?

569
00:43:15.840 --> 00:43:20.280
Can they be getting brand names?
Yes? Or not or not?

570
00:43:20.880 --> 00:43:25.960
Yeah? But absolutely no, there's
no consistency. Yes none. Well,

571
00:43:27.039 --> 00:43:32.679
Andrew, Now, as far as
your particular vehicle, have you noticed a

572
00:43:32.719 --> 00:43:40.840
difference on how it runs. I
won't really only use shill, but I

573
00:43:42.280 --> 00:43:46.880
kind of it looks enticing to go
to like Costco for for field that I've

574
00:43:46.920 --> 00:43:50.840
heard some people say, well,
you know, also like the Kroger that

575
00:43:50.920 --> 00:43:53.199
they get tanged. I like what
well, I like what Jesse said.

576
00:43:53.440 --> 00:43:57.920
What you see is what you get
or what you feel, and here is

577
00:43:57.920 --> 00:44:00.320
what you get. So if your
car does well on it, then then

578
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:05.280
it's fine. And that's the same
with octane too. There are some cars

579
00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:08.639
that can take lower octanes and get
away with it and there's no issue whatsoever.

580
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:15.440
There are others that need higher octanes. So it's it's all in what

581
00:44:15.159 --> 00:44:20.280
it feels like. That's one of
the areas where you can make a decision

582
00:44:20.360 --> 00:44:24.440
based on performance, not on cost, not on promise. But when it

583
00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:30.519
comes to gasoline, I think Shell
has done the best marketing job over the

584
00:44:30.599 --> 00:44:34.960
years, don't you when you think
of quality fuel. I'm not saying it's

585
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:44.199
true, but Shell has that marketing
they did, didn't they have the Shell

586
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:45.559
answer man at one time? Was
it the Shell guy that did that?

587
00:44:45.719 --> 00:44:50.440
Or yeah? I think that was
and then you had all kinds of marketing

588
00:44:50.480 --> 00:44:54.159
Shell did. But as far as
Exxon, what kind of They don't do

589
00:44:54.199 --> 00:44:59.320
any marketing? I mean Chevron,
I mean I never hear what, in

590
00:44:59.360 --> 00:45:02.519
fact even think of a lot of
brand names. Diamond, shamrock, is

591
00:45:02.519 --> 00:45:07.920
that a brand kind of used to
be? But if you travel, like

592
00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:12.320
when I travel to other cities,
Marathon Marathon a big one. They do

593

594
00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:20.679
on the road to see some of
this. I just texted my cousin who's

595
00:45:20.719 --> 00:45:24.960
a chemical engineer and used to do
that with gas. Okay, good,

596

hundred and thirty booths and it would be

604
00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:10.400
good. But it's a home show. It's not a van show. It's

605

620
00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:35.199
f three fifty men? Do they
ever die? Like ninety nine? What's

621
00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:37.840
it? What's the oldest pickup you've
serviced? Now? I don't mean one

622
00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:39.599
restored, I mean a normal pickup. What's the oldest one you ever?

623
00:47:39.719 --> 00:47:44.360
We own a nineteen fifty six international
pickup that we have for the shop that

624
00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:46.920
we service, real, a real
pickup. Yep. It's not a show

625
00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:52.119
piece or restore nineteen fifty six beat
up. We still throw stuff in the

626
00:47:52.119 --> 00:47:57.360
back and we take it for the
Christmas preade. How many miles did you

627
00:47:57.440 --> 00:48:00.719
lose track? Yeah? I don't
even know. Jack. It rolls over

628
00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:07.840
its international. I've seen scouts that
people will swear to God have almost a

629
00:48:07.880 --> 00:48:10.679
million miles. Is that possible.
Why what was about that? What engine

630
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:15.280
is in that damn thing? Huh? Straight six? But what is it?

631
00:48:15.320 --> 00:48:19.960
Who made it? International? Harvester? Is that? Did they just

632
00:48:20.039 --> 00:48:23.400
have a bulletproof engine? Commercial?
Commercial? Yeah, they're old pickups in

633
00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:28.000
the but they don't make those in
anything new do they? They're too heavy

634
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:30.360
now they will E P A and
everything else get it done, but they

635
00:48:30.360 --> 00:48:34.440
don't die. No, and they
make semis right, it's a big rigs

636
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:37.360
they I didn't know that, but
that's I mean, I only knew of

637
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:40.679
Detroit Diesel and Cummings. I didn't
know. But Volvo now, not now,

638
00:48:40.719 --> 00:48:45.800
but Volvo makes an engine right who
else? Who else? Caterpillar?

639
00:48:45.679 --> 00:48:50.760
That's right? Cats and uh?
And then does International still make it?

640
00:48:50.800 --> 00:48:55.000
Harvester? For So what's the best
over the road engine? You know?

641
00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:58.639
You got to talk to the truckers
about that. They all have very different

642
00:48:58.679 --> 00:49:01.199
opinions on that. They do Peter
built, I think, yeah, Hey

643
00:49:01.239 --> 00:49:04.920
man, Kenny, I didn't.
I'm sorry, Go ahead, Kenny,

644
00:49:04.920 --> 00:49:08.320
I'm sorry. That's that's all right, that's all right, Okay. So

645
00:49:08.559 --> 00:49:13.079
when it was when my truck was
a little newer, when I pull up

646
00:49:13.079 --> 00:49:15.480
a path, it wouldn't get hot. It would as RPMs come down,

647
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:20.800
you just downship. Now I start
going up the path and the temperature gage

648
00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:23.920
comes up without the RPMs going down, so I have to downship keep it

649
00:49:23.920 --> 00:49:30.559
from getting warm. So it sounds
like you're having a cooling flow problem or

650
00:49:30.639 --> 00:49:36.679
clutter clutter, fan clutch. Fact, you might not be yelling or radiators.

651
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:39.360
Yeah, not not flowing good,
but right right, okay, So

652
00:49:39.440 --> 00:49:42.599
this is what I put on it, So that's kind of what I was

653
00:49:42.639 --> 00:49:45.639
thinking. I put a new radiator
on it from Mischi motor at eighteen hundred

654
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:50.440
dollars radiator. I put a new
fan clutch, a new water pump,

655
00:49:50.519 --> 00:49:54.639
all new holders, and a new
thermostat. Somebody said there's two thermostats on

656
00:49:54.679 --> 00:49:58.440
those seven point three. I was
just going to ask if you did both

657
00:49:58.480 --> 00:50:01.000
thermostats or just one. I just
did one. I don't know where that

658
00:50:01.039 --> 00:50:06.760
second one is at, so well, which one did you change? Yeah?

659
00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:12.039
I did. I did the top
one on the bottom host. See

660
00:50:12.159 --> 00:50:15.519
when I pulled that hose up,
there was nothing there. I put the

661
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:20.840
new hose on. There's no there's
no thermostat there, and it is the

662
00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:27.039
six feet manual transmission and yeah,
I'd have to pull a diagram as well.

663
00:50:27.119 --> 00:50:29.079
You know, if you get on
YouTube or something look at it,

664
00:50:29.159 --> 00:50:32.400
you know, replacing thermostats, they'll
show you the location. Yeah. See,

665
00:50:32.480 --> 00:50:36.679
And I looked on YouTube and every
time it's just the top one shows

666
00:50:36.760 --> 00:50:39.480
up. I was, I was, I was just like, But they

667
00:50:39.480 --> 00:50:43.960
did say if that that other one
went bad, it would make the e

668
00:50:44.039 --> 00:50:49.679
GPS go start getting warmer. Do
you think, No, you definitely got

669
00:50:49.679 --> 00:50:52.880
to find it. It's just it's
you know, you do done everything else.

670
00:50:52.920 --> 00:50:55.880
Yeah. So do you guys work
on those old things? Oh yeah

671
00:50:57.079 --> 00:51:00.760
yeah yeah. Seven has been around
forever so always. Yeah. Well,

672
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:04.159
Kenny, check out one of our
people to me, what's that? Yeah?

673
00:51:04.199 --> 00:51:07.679
Oh and Tom on that unemployment thing
with that US Bank card. Yeah,

674
00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:12.199
the one where they're putting holds on
him. You mean, well,

675
00:51:13.440 --> 00:51:15.679
I had an integrity hole too,
but she had. She said she got

676
00:51:15.760 --> 00:51:21.199
ripped off that that card comes empty
and you have to file each week to

677
00:51:21.239 --> 00:51:24.000
fill that card. So she got
ten ninety nine. Somebody use that money.

678
00:51:24.280 --> 00:51:28.519
Oh yeah, that's what we're thinking. But thank you, Kenny,

679
00:51:28.559 --> 00:51:31.320
I appreciate it. Man. Good
luck on your truck. Three oh three

680
00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:35.599
East seven one three eight two five
five, So Ray wants to talk.

681
00:51:35.679 --> 00:51:39.440
By the way, we'll take calls. Uh, take calls right up till

682
00:51:40.239 --> 00:51:45.559
two o'clock today. Ray, what's
happening with the sighting issue? Man,

683
00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:49.840
I'm looking up. I'm trying to
look up your problem. Yeah, this

684
00:51:50.039 --> 00:51:55.199
was a metal sighting of the home
and they warranty it for life and the

685
00:51:55.280 --> 00:52:00.039
homeowner has gotten elderly. And now
listen, are you you are? Did

686
00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:04.719
you call in before this is marked
as some kind of follow up or not?

687
00:52:05.320 --> 00:52:08.760
Yeah, that's right. I did
talk with Smarty and he was able

688
00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:13.159
to talk to the manufacturer on this. And this was back. When did

689
00:52:13.199 --> 00:52:16.280
you call originally? Ray? Oh? Probably, I want to say August

690
00:52:16.559 --> 00:52:22.760
of okay, twenty three, maybe
September, I can't remember. And where

691
00:52:22.960 --> 00:52:27.559
was it for a friend or for
yourself? For a friend of mine that

692
00:52:27.599 --> 00:52:30.320
I've been helping. It's anotherly lady. And you know that she just wasn't

693
00:52:30.320 --> 00:52:37.360
getting anywhere by trying to get them
to do their warranty work. In the

694
00:52:37.400 --> 00:52:43.239
meantime, her house was looking worse
and worse because the paint was just falling

695
00:52:43.320 --> 00:52:49.480
off this metal siding. Okay,
And Marty was very instrumental in getting that

696
00:52:49.559 --> 00:52:55.440
going and I just want to say
they contractor showed up this week and you

697
00:52:55.440 --> 00:53:00.760
know, Sam Blast's deciding and completely
repainted it. Wow, man, that

698
00:53:00.000 --> 00:53:06.559
is so cool after all that time, we finally got action, all right,

699
00:53:06.599 --> 00:53:09.119
because it had been two years before
we even called you to get some

700
00:53:09.199 --> 00:53:14.800
help. So really appreciate what you
got. Your team is doing well man,

701
00:53:15.079 --> 00:53:19.960

tell Smarty Pants that he's in Florida

702
00:53:20.000 --> 00:53:24.960
and okay, well, thank you. It's good to hear that these seeds

703
00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:31.320
that we plannt keep bearing fruit for
people and things do happen, and of

720

Hey Craig, what's going on with
your roofing company? What's happen? In

721
00:55:00.599 --> 00:55:06.719
man? What's going on him?
Hey? What's happening? Well, my

722
00:55:06.840 --> 00:55:12.079
folks, they've got this rooffing company
that come and they offered to fix the

723
00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:15.639
roof for them, and so is
a knock on the door? Yeah,

724
00:55:15.719 --> 00:55:21.880
yeah, bad news. That's a
bad start. Then what yeah? And

725
00:55:21.920 --> 00:55:25.320
then they get signed a contract with
them, but they don't have a copy

726
00:55:25.320 --> 00:55:31.239
of the contract. God, And
they did order all the roofing materials and

727
00:55:31.400 --> 00:55:35.039
send them to them. Well,
is this for storm damage or is this

728
00:55:35.119 --> 00:55:39.079
a voluntary replacement? It's a storm
damage. Okay. And when did they

729
00:55:39.119 --> 00:55:45.840
sign the contract. It's been back
in August, I believe. And have

730
00:55:45.960 --> 00:55:51.039
they done the work yet, No, they've just got the materials there.

731
00:55:51.559 --> 00:55:53.840
Okay, so they do have materials. How much did your parents pay up

732
00:55:53.840 --> 00:55:59.679
front? As far as they know, they haven't paid anything up front.

733
00:56:00.239 --> 00:56:05.679
They paid for the materials the materials
came. They did pay for the materials

734
00:56:05.760 --> 00:56:10.880
right right now. Those materials sat
out all winter. No, they just

735
00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:15.159
got there in uh like February.
Okay, good news. This is all

736
00:56:15.199 --> 00:56:20.760
a good sign. So now what's
happening? So now we can't get a

737
00:56:20.760 --> 00:56:24.960
hold of them to come. They
said they'd be here in April, or

738
00:56:25.320 --> 00:56:29.199
actually said they'd be in March,
and they haven't showed up, and so

739
00:56:29.400 --> 00:56:30.840
we've been trying to get a hold
of them. Okay. So how much

740
00:56:30.880 --> 00:56:36.599
did they pay for materials? Twenty
six thousand? Who did they pay?

741
00:56:37.840 --> 00:56:44.199
They paid that company, the Evolved
Construction. Did Evolve pay the supplier?

742
00:56:45.519 --> 00:56:51.679
I presume they did, because they
Evolved came and they wanted fifty two thousand

743
00:56:51.679 --> 00:56:54.079
dollars from them, and my mom
said, no, we're not going to

744
00:56:54.159 --> 00:56:59.320
pay you that much money. We'll
pay you what the price is for the

745
00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:04.840
materials we have on here. Smart
people, and they've and the guy says,

746
00:57:04.880 --> 00:57:07.159
well, you've got to pay me
this much money, and she says,

747
00:57:07.199 --> 00:57:09.519
no, I don't. I'm gonna
pay you for is the materials right

748
00:57:09.519 --> 00:57:17.000
there? Smart people? Smart people? Yeah, from the from the what

749
00:57:17.039 --> 00:57:23.000
do you call shipping label? And
so do you know who the manufacturer?

750
00:57:23.159 --> 00:57:29.400
Would you know the supplier that supplied
those to you guys. I'd have to

751
00:57:29.400 --> 00:57:32.519
see if she has the copy of
the receipt. I don't think she did.

752
00:57:32.559 --> 00:57:37.920
I think she might have given to
them. Okay, so now you

753
00:57:38.239 --> 00:57:43.320
want us to call I mean,
look, I don't think these people would

754
00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:46.760
deliver materials if they weren't planning on
doing the roof. I don't like the

755
00:57:46.760 --> 00:57:52.119
way they're doing business, But hey, do you have any reason to believe

756
00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:57.360
they won't do the roof? I
havn't. I had no idea because I

757
00:57:57.360 --> 00:58:00.000
can't get hold of anybody. I've
been trying to comb for weeks and they

758
00:58:00.039 --> 00:58:04.039
keep telling me somebody will call me
back, and nobody will call me back.

759
00:58:07.480 --> 00:58:10.440
We're gonna get him a call right
now. Okay, Deputy Doc is

760
00:58:10.480 --> 00:58:15.039
going to call them, so hold
on, let's uh, let let's just

761
00:58:15.079 --> 00:58:19.599
see what's going on. Okay,
three oh three seven one three talk seven

762
00:58:19.639 --> 00:58:25.719
one three eight two five five.
At least they are smart enough not to

763
00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:31.760
get nabbed on, you know,
paying for stuff and not getting it at

764
00:58:31.760 --> 00:58:37.599
all. That's what I love.
Now. One of the texts here say

765
00:58:37.639 --> 00:58:40.440
Tom, I only use top tier
fuels. By the way, you can

766
00:58:40.440 --> 00:58:45.159
text the show five seven seven three
nine. Put Tom somewhere in that subject

767
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:50.800
or upfront, it'll come to me. Only use top tier fuels. Easy

768
00:58:50.840 --> 00:58:59.000
to verify which brands are certified top
tier car one's great. Another one says

769
00:58:59.000 --> 00:59:02.519
they won't trust cheap gas. Well, my god, I never knew anyone

770
00:59:02.519 --> 00:59:09.039
who actually shops for brands nowadays,
with the way prices are, I don't

771
00:59:09.119 --> 00:59:15.880
know why anyone would shop a brand
anyway. Whatever, A top tier fuel,

772
00:59:15.880 --> 00:59:21.119
what does he mean? It's easy
to find out which one is top

773
00:59:21.199 --> 00:59:24.119
tier. That's the additive package they
put in that fuel. It's it's costco's

774
00:59:24.119 --> 00:59:29.039
top tier. Do they literally call
it they call it top tier? Is

775
00:59:29.079 --> 00:59:31.760
that is that like an advertising slogan
or an official No, it's it's an

776
00:59:31.800 --> 00:59:38.119
official reality. And so who so
somebody designates top here a sticker on the

777
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:43.079
pumps to say top tier fuel.
Probably a trade organization. It's not the

778
00:59:43.079 --> 00:59:45.320
government, is it. No,
No, no, it's not government,

779
00:59:45.440 --> 00:59:47.320
but it's it's I think it's a
branding, you know, more like,

780
00:59:47.320 --> 00:59:51.239
like I said, an additive package. It's in it for detergents and everything

781
00:59:51.239 --> 00:59:53.760
else. And it's actually called top
Tier. Okay, so we're making a

782
00:59:53.760 --> 00:59:57.920
call to that roof for to find
out what's going on there. Meanwhile,

783
00:59:58.000 --> 01:00:02.800
let's talk about h there was something. Oh yeah, So as far as

784
01:00:04.320 --> 01:00:07.960
the let me just get to this. There's something that came up that I

785
01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:12.719
saw today and I thought, you
know, this is really important, and

786
01:00:12.760 --> 01:00:22.159
that is E cigarettes. They've done
a study causes as much or more cancer

787
01:00:22.239 --> 01:00:25.280
as regular cigarettes. Now, people
always thought it must be the smoke and

788
01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:29.519
the tarn and nic contained the vape. By the way, In fact,

789
01:00:30.239 --> 01:00:38.039
it's also tied to heart trouble.
They say you increase your heart risk for

790
01:00:38.199 --> 01:00:43.840
heart attack and you know, or
a cardiac event by nineteen percent. Now,

791
01:00:43.880 --> 01:00:47.840
just so you know, this was
done with a study just recently by

792
01:00:47.880 --> 01:00:55.719
the National Institute of Health, with
one hundred seventy five thousand, six hundred

793
01:00:55.760 --> 01:01:05.639
people, and it was done over
a period of fifty two months, fifty

794
01:01:05.639 --> 01:01:08.519
two months or whatever, how many
years, so twelve to twelve so yeah,

795
01:01:09.000 --> 01:01:15.599
four and a half years. And
they had a marked increase in heart

796
01:01:15.599 --> 01:01:22.039
disease, heart failure, heart attack
solely on the fact that they had vape,

797
01:01:22.360 --> 01:01:28.000
that they're vaping. Thirty four percent
of vapors more likely to have a

798
01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:37.239
heart attack, twenty five percent coronary
heart artery disease, fifty five percent suffer

799
01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:43.920
from depression and anxiety. Now think
about that. What is that all about.

800
01:01:44.000 --> 01:01:46.119
That's a high number, that's right. Yeah, and this is so

801
01:01:46.199 --> 01:01:52.079
this but this is not a This
is not a Schlock study. So they're

802
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:57.800
saying that the problem with the e
cigarettes to deliver the flavorings of nicotines,

803
01:01:58.360 --> 01:02:01.400
they have these chemicals that have to
be made into an aerosol or into a

804
01:02:01.480 --> 01:02:07.960
steam or into a vapor not a
steam really, and while it doesn't contain

805
01:02:08.119 --> 01:02:15.559
smoke and tar, it contains worse
stuff because the stuff that they have to

806
01:02:15.599 --> 01:02:21.480
put into to atomize it or to
vaporize it is way more dangerous. So

807
01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:25.599
I thought you'd like to know that
a lot of people think vaping is safer.

808
01:02:25.840 --> 01:02:36.000
It is absolutely not. Go with

815
01:03:09.880 --> 01:03:15.079
Deputy Doc, turn on your mic. Deputy Doc called the roofer Evolve

816
01:03:15.199 --> 01:03:20.480
Roofing or Evolved Construction. They delivered. They signed a contract in August,

817
01:03:20.519 --> 01:03:23.679
delivered materials in February, and now
the guy can't get a hold of them

818
01:03:23.679 --> 01:03:29.400
to figure out when they're going to
start. They paid only for the materials

819
01:03:29.440 --> 01:03:32.800
that have been delivered, and so
that's good. The materials were delivered in

820
01:03:32.840 --> 01:03:37.159
February. What's going on? Doc? Anyway? I spoke to someone that

821
01:03:37.280 --> 01:03:40.840
Evolved and they took that all the
information. Of course, they couldn't help.

822
01:03:40.880 --> 01:03:45.840
They said it's the wrong person,
but that they will have somebody reach

823
01:03:45.920 --> 01:03:50.800
out to them, reach out to
them as asap. So I told Craig

824
01:03:51.280 --> 01:03:53.320
to call me if they don't get
back this afternoon, all by Monday,

825
01:03:53.679 --> 01:03:57.760
and we'll really get on their case. But for the time being, since

826
01:03:57.800 --> 01:04:00.000
they did talk to me, we
will give them the benefit the doubt and

827
01:04:00.079 --> 01:04:06.519
see if they do call back before
we trash them. Yeah. By the

828
01:04:06.559 --> 01:04:13.760
way, we only trash people are
totally unresponsive and people who just won't do

829
01:04:13.880 --> 01:04:16.280
the right thing. Well, we
always give people a chance, yea,

830
01:04:16.320 --> 01:04:20.760
if they make promises that they don't
keep exactly, let people know about it.

831
01:04:21.159 --> 01:04:29.639
By the way, mortgage rates up
again, so they're above seven percent.

832
01:04:30.480 --> 01:04:38.760
That is unbelievable, right, So
what's really strange. The Fed didn't

833
01:04:38.760 --> 01:04:41.039
do that, right, they did, did they? They didn't mark them

834
01:04:41.119 --> 01:04:44.239
up. They just wouldn't mark up. Yea, that the market did.

835
01:04:44.639 --> 01:04:48.760
And here's what's going on. Inflation
is still out there. So this is

836
01:04:48.800 --> 01:04:55.079
one of the rare cases. In
fact, there's three things happening. You

837
01:04:55.159 --> 01:05:00.320
have high interests, which should curb
inflation, it's not. And it should

838
01:05:00.320 --> 01:05:04.199
also take the wind out of the
sales of the stock market, which it

839
01:05:04.320 --> 01:05:09.280
is not a little bit this week, well a little bit, but not

840
01:05:09.559 --> 01:05:14.760
what it should be doing. People
should be flocking to debt securities with high

841
01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:20.679
interest like this or the safety of
bonds, but they're not. They're still

842
01:05:20.679 --> 01:05:26.880
in the stock market. There's not
a massive sell off, not right yet.

843
01:05:27.280 --> 01:05:32.480
There's some but the correction people were
thinking is not coming. So you

844
01:05:32.559 --> 01:05:36.880
have all of these weird, weird
economic indicators that people don't know what to

845
01:05:36.920 --> 01:05:45.559
do about, high interest, high
inflation, and a volatile stock market mostly

846
01:05:45.559 --> 01:05:50.159
going up, and there's low unemployment
factor into that time. I'm not an

847
01:05:50.159 --> 01:05:56.239
economist, no, no, but
but there are you know, and obviously

848
01:05:56.320 --> 01:05:59.800
to look at signs you don't have
to be one, but a low unemployment

849
01:06:00.119 --> 01:06:08.760
is weird. Low unemployment happens both
in recovery and in it's going both ways.

850
01:06:08.800 --> 01:06:13.079
So it depends on what the trends
are. If it's trending up,

851
01:06:13.800 --> 01:06:17.440
then three or four percent is not
good. If it's trending down three or

852
01:06:17.440 --> 01:06:21.920
four percent, you know, it
depends if it just really depends. It's

853
01:06:21.960 --> 01:06:26.719
good if it's if you start coming
down and get to that. But here's

854
01:06:26.760 --> 01:06:31.639
the thing. The real unemployment right
four percent is considered fully employed about four

855
01:06:31.719 --> 01:06:34.599
percent or better. What is it
right now? I don't I didn't even

856
01:06:34.639 --> 01:06:40.440
look today. I think it's in
between three and four percent, which is

857
01:06:40.480 --> 01:06:44.719
so it doesn't do much better than
that. But the economy doesn't seem to

858
01:06:44.760 --> 01:06:50.639
reflect that as far as okay,
the inflation and all the other stuff.

859
01:06:50.639 --> 01:06:56.079
But here's what's weird. Usually with
inflation, you have people buying like crazy,

860
01:06:56.159 --> 01:07:01.039
right, That's why we have inflation. Businesses have said to me that

861
01:07:02.480 --> 01:07:08.400
business is slowing slightly, just slightly, and I don't know how accurate that

862
01:07:08.519 --> 01:07:12.239
is of I'm getting an accurate appraisal
of that. But you guys aren't slowing

863
01:07:12.599 --> 01:07:15.800
because everyone needs cars, right.
I don't think you guys are a good

864
01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:18.000
indicator, are you. Well?
No, but Mark's one very good and

865
01:07:18.079 --> 01:07:23.559
April is just putts and it's nothing
great right now. So what I'm asking

866
01:07:23.639 --> 01:07:27.400
is it is slowing? Yeah,
okay? And do you notice that,

867
01:07:27.480 --> 01:07:30.800
Jeff on rebuilds and stuff, Oh
definitely, I'm on. Our phones were

868
01:07:30.840 --> 01:07:32.480
quiet down a little bit. You
know, we've got enough backdon So.

869
01:07:32.519 --> 01:07:36.719
I don't know what's going on,
but in the polls, people are swinging

870
01:07:36.840 --> 01:07:41.679
back to Biden. I mean,
he was down by as much as ten

871
01:07:41.719 --> 01:07:45.239
points at one time, and now
they're dead even so, what the hell

872
01:07:45.639 --> 01:07:48.119
I mean? I can't make high
er hair of it. But it's really

873
01:07:48.760 --> 01:07:51.519

01:09:15.359 --> 01:09:24.439
This is the Troubleshooter Show. No
Tom Martino, Hi Tom Martino, You're

889
01:09:24.439 --> 01:09:30.520
a troubleshooter. Three all three seven
one three talk three all three seven one

890
01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:34.560
three eight two five five. Welcome
to the show. As we do every

891
01:09:34.600 --> 01:09:38.760
Friday, we have Car Day.
We'll talk about cars, problems, questions,

892
01:09:38.760 --> 01:09:43.439
complaints, and we'll talk about anything
you want. If you call us

893
01:09:43.439 --> 01:09:45.920
at three oh three seven one three
talk three oh three seven one three eight

894
01:09:45.960 --> 01:09:49.479
two five five if someone lies,
you cheated, you ripped you off,

895
01:09:49.520 --> 01:09:53.840
or you just need information. That's
what this show does each end, every

896
01:09:54.039 --> 01:10:00.119
day, why I should say weekdays, recovering millions of dollars for people with

897
01:10:00.199 --> 01:10:09.960
cash, merchandise, exchanges, refunds
and services. Do people are people braver

898
01:10:11.520 --> 01:10:16.840
on social media? Behind a keyboard? There's no doubt that animinity makes people

899
01:10:16.960 --> 01:10:23.399
much of it. I believe that
people have become so belligerent. If you

900
01:10:23.479 --> 01:10:28.399
look on social media, no matter
what it is, the newer ones like

901
01:10:28.520 --> 01:10:32.000
next door, or you look on
maybe not Snapchat, but you look on

902
01:10:32.079 --> 01:10:38.560
Instagram, you look on Twitter,
you look on any kind of social media,

903
01:10:38.680 --> 01:10:45.880
just name it Facebook. As I
said, where there's a forum,

904
01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:50.840
here's what happens. Here's what happens
with every forum. Either it starts out

905
01:10:50.960 --> 01:10:58.600
nasty or it starts out nice and
goes nasty. There is not one post,

906
01:10:58.760 --> 01:11:06.359
not one, and I mean not
one that does not turn nasty,

907
01:11:08.000 --> 01:11:14.119
not one, And I wonder do
people like that? Have you ever seen

908
01:11:15.239 --> 01:11:16.760
a post where somebody will just say, oh, what a beautiful sunset,

909
01:11:18.399 --> 01:11:23.000
and then you'll have someone say enjoy
it, Well you can. Climate chain's

910
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:26.880
coming, you know, I mean, it'll destroy all our sunsets thanks to

911
01:11:26.880 --> 01:11:30.920
those GD whatevers. No, no, I'm serious, or maybe I'm exaggerating

912
01:11:31.000 --> 01:11:36.600
just a little, but no matter
what is posted, someone will find something

913
01:11:38.119 --> 01:11:45.560
negative about it, and then the
entire thread goes negative and personal attacks like

914
01:11:46.079 --> 01:11:50.920
can you imagine? Before social media, people probably still thought the same they

915
01:11:50.920 --> 01:11:56.119
did, Everyone thought the same,
but they never verbalize it. So you

916
01:11:56.159 --> 01:12:00.399
didn't know what people were thinking,
and you mistakenly liked a lot of people

917
01:12:00.840 --> 01:12:05.000
because you didn't know what was in
their minds, and so you still don't

918
01:12:05.039 --> 01:12:11.279
know when you see them because most
of them are cowards. Most everyone online

919
01:12:11.359 --> 01:12:16.479
is a coward. Most everyone.
I mean absolutely everyone, because they can

920
01:12:16.520 --> 01:12:21.079
say anything they want, any time
they want without giving their real name,

921
01:12:23.159 --> 01:12:26.000
or they give their first name and
an initial, like with nextdoor. But

922
01:12:26.039 --> 01:12:31.279
what I'm saying is is that they're
all cowards because they take potshots instead of

923
01:12:31.319 --> 01:12:38.880
putting themselves out there like this is
my name, this is what I believe,

924
01:12:40.399 --> 01:12:44.159
and better yet, who cares what
you believe? Right? But if

925
01:12:44.159 --> 01:12:48.039
you're having a discussion online about nothing
to do with anything, it all comes

926
01:12:48.079 --> 01:12:54.199
down to being nasty. Sometimes it's
nasty for the sake of being nasty or

927
01:12:54.239 --> 01:12:59.479
the sake of politics. Politics is
a really big one. Religion is another

928
01:12:59.520 --> 01:13:03.439
big one. But if you want
to I've come up with a formula here.

929
01:13:03.439 --> 01:13:08.000
If you want to just have a
blame for everything, it's going to

930
01:13:08.079 --> 01:13:14.640
be one of these things, Trump, or it's going to be Biden,

931
01:13:15.399 --> 01:13:20.319
or it's going to be climate change, or it's listen COVID. Well,

932
01:13:20.399 --> 01:13:26.960
yeah, COVID is another one,
but climate change, Trump and Biden.

933
01:13:27.239 --> 01:13:30.600
But there was one other one,
like on what you can blame everything on?

934
01:13:30.720 --> 01:13:34.479
Just it will be you know,
it'll be one of those things.

935
01:13:34.880 --> 01:13:41.359
And it's amazing to me how we
have all gotten so nasty. It just

936
01:13:41.479 --> 01:13:45.439
is now. On this show,
we try to help people. We get

937
01:13:45.600 --> 01:13:47.439
nasty against people who rip people off. But I don't know if you noticed

938
01:13:47.439 --> 01:13:50.600
this or not. Seriously, we
don't treat people differently on based on their

939
01:13:50.600 --> 01:13:55.399
beliefs and their politics. I don't
care what their politics are. When someone

940
01:13:55.479 --> 01:13:59.720
calls me for the roof problem,
or somebody calls me about getting ripped off

941
01:13:59.720 --> 01:14:01.279
with an investment, or getting ripped
off here and getting ripped off there,

942
01:14:01.439 --> 01:14:04.600
I don't We have never asked what
party affiliation are, what do you believe?

943
01:14:04.640 --> 01:14:08.279
Are you conservative? Are you liberal? We don't try to make people.

944
01:14:08.439 --> 01:14:12.279
I hope you realize that when we
do observe certain political things that seem

945
01:14:12.359 --> 01:14:15.840
ridiculous, we observe it. I
don't care what you are. You deserve

946
01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:19.600
the same help as anyone. I
think that's one place we can all agree.

947
01:14:19.680 --> 01:14:24.319
I really do believe that. I
don't think there's one person listening to

948
01:14:24.359 --> 01:14:28.199
this show on a daily basis that
believes the information I'm giving out shouldn't be

949
01:14:28.239 --> 01:14:31.880
given out. No one wants to
be ripped off by paying money up front

950
01:14:32.239 --> 01:14:34.840
and never seeing the person again.
No one who's gonna say, oh,

951
01:14:34.920 --> 01:14:38.920
yeah, I'm in favor of that, Tom, I totally disagree with you.

952
01:14:39.000 --> 01:14:43.279
No one who's gonna say, yeah, I believe we should offer something

953
01:14:43.279 --> 01:14:47.359
and never get it, or I
believe we should be overcharged, or I

954
01:14:47.520 --> 01:14:51.439
believe that you know, no one
ever can be against what we do.

955
01:14:51.640 --> 01:14:56.159
Ever can you? You might not
like the way I do it, but

956
01:14:56.199 --> 01:14:59.640
I don't give a damn. We
get results. I mean you don't.

957
01:14:59.720 --> 01:15:01.680
You know you don't do it for
forty five years on the air and not

958
01:15:01.680 --> 01:15:05.760
get results. You just don't do
it. You can't. You can't BS

959
01:15:05.760 --> 01:15:12.680
that long, Nothing ever will last
that long from BS. So anyway,

960
01:15:13.079 --> 01:15:15.319
what I invite you to do is
call us if you have a problem,

961
01:15:15.399 --> 01:15:18.439
question or complaint. We've been talking
about cars today as well, and again

962
01:15:18.840 --> 01:15:21.760
the number one car problem. If
you didn't hear at the beginning of the

963
01:15:21.800 --> 01:15:27.720
show, the number one car problem
right now, delay in repairs. Whether

964
01:15:27.800 --> 01:15:31.560
it's bodywork, whether it's transmission work, whether it's entry work. I don't

965
01:15:31.600 --> 01:15:36.520
maybe maybe not oil changes, but
I swear to you the delay in service.

966
01:15:36.880 --> 01:15:42.159
It's gotten to be where you can't
get anything done in less than two

967
01:15:42.239 --> 01:15:45.479
or three weeks. It's I don't
know why. Now here's what I wonder,

968
01:15:46.520 --> 01:15:51.079
I wonder why. And I did
this with a body shop. I

969
01:15:51.199 --> 01:15:55.560
said to them, you know what, I'm not driving here and now let

970
01:15:55.680 --> 01:16:00.119
my car sit for two months.
Tell me what parts I need, at

971
01:16:00.199 --> 01:16:03.000
least the obvious ones, and I'll
pay for them right now. Order them,

972
01:16:03.920 --> 01:16:08.279
Order them right now. I don't
want the car sitting there while you

973
01:16:08.319 --> 01:16:12.239
wait for parts. And that's what
they do, order them. And I

974
01:16:12.239 --> 01:16:15.119
don't know, guys, are you
starting to like if somebody needs somebody with

975
01:16:15.159 --> 01:16:16.880
a transmission, Jeff, or somebody
needs something with an engine, Kevin or

976
01:16:16.880 --> 01:16:20.680
something else, or or Jesse,
somebody needs something by the way, we

977
01:16:20.760 --> 01:16:26.479
have honest, accurate auto from Colorado
Springs transmission. We have a Chimera transmission

978
01:16:26.479 --> 01:16:30.920
from Denver and shared in auto Tech. So have you ever said, come

979
01:16:30.960 --> 01:16:32.800
back when I get the parts.
Have you ever done that? Absolutely?

980
01:16:32.840 --> 01:16:36.039
Absolutely all right, because you don't
want to have the car sitting there right

981
01:16:36.079 --> 01:16:40.359
now. If you've got to remove
something that's different, remove and replace.

982
01:16:40.560 --> 01:16:43.479
Well even then though, if you
can have the replacement engine or a tranny

983
01:16:43.560 --> 01:16:46.319
there before you remove it, well, building a house we have to strip

984
01:16:46.319 --> 01:16:50.279
it down and well, building that's
different. When you rebuild, that's totally

985
01:16:50.319 --> 01:16:54.119
different, right, But don't you
want to make sure you have the parts

986
01:16:54.119 --> 01:16:57.079
to rebuild? Oh? Yea,
that's what I'm talking about. We have

987
01:16:57.079 --> 01:16:59.560
gotten to the point where we start
making phone calls and make sure some of

988
01:16:59.560 --> 01:17:01.840
the more soucial items we know that
we're gonna need, yeah, are available.

989
01:17:01.880 --> 01:17:04.920
But this body shop, actually it
was foreign to them. What you

990
01:17:04.960 --> 01:17:10.359
want me to what I said,
order the parts? No, we even

991
01:17:10.439 --> 01:17:14.239
have one or two loaner cars.
Emergency situation, you can't meet without your

992
01:17:14.239 --> 01:17:16.079
car. We work it out,
We find a way. But but man,

993
01:17:16.159 --> 01:17:21.880
this new thing about you know,
staying in a shop for three months?

994
01:17:21.960 --> 01:17:26.520
What are you kidding me? Frank? What's going on with you?

995
01:17:26.600 --> 01:17:30.439
Frank? Good up here, sir. I've got to get a twenty ten

996
01:17:30.600 --> 01:17:34.279
Ford Taurus with forty two thousand miles
on it. The car runs great,

997
01:17:34.399 --> 01:17:39.000
I love it. I've got a
problem with the defog or on it.

998
01:17:39.399 --> 01:17:43.439
Air conditioning works fine, heater works, fine, blows through all the events.

999
01:17:43.640 --> 01:17:47.880
It just will not clear the dfog. When you see not clear it.

1000
01:17:47.880 --> 01:17:53.680
It's coming out of the defroster.
So I get warm air coming out.

1001
01:17:53.760 --> 01:17:55.920
No, there's no fog coming out
of it. It's just that when

1002
01:17:55.920 --> 01:18:00.119
the fog builds up on the inside, windows, front sides, it just

1003
01:18:00.239 --> 01:18:05.960
will not clear it. So your
defroster or your defrost mode will not take

1004
01:18:06.079 --> 01:18:10.800
any of those off. And you're
sure that the warm air comes out and

1005
01:18:10.800 --> 01:18:14.600
all the events are You're you're feeling
the air coming out. It's just not

1006
01:18:14.840 --> 01:18:18.359
doing it. It's not doing the
job, that's right. So is this

1007
01:18:18.439 --> 01:18:23.520
all the time or only when it's
major? Well, it seems like it's

1008
01:18:23.520 --> 01:18:26.560
all the time. And now I
live up in Summit County and I keep

1009
01:18:26.560 --> 01:18:30.880
the car garaged, and I'm just
wondering if it's temperature differential of coming out

1010
01:18:30.880 --> 01:18:33.039
of a reasonably warm well, does
it happen the entire time? Does it

1011
01:18:33.079 --> 01:18:39.359
ever clear up? It will get
a small spot right at the vent.

1012
01:18:39.560 --> 01:18:42.079
Yeah, I know, I know
what it is. That's just the airflow,

1013
01:18:42.239 --> 01:18:43.680
chess you whatever? Are you going
to say? Yeah? I was

1014
01:18:43.760 --> 01:18:46.439
just wondering if airflow number one is
are we sure the vent's closing and letting

1015
01:18:46.479 --> 01:18:49.119
it go up the defrost tube?
And then of course too, if it's

1016
01:18:49.479 --> 01:18:54.800
it's not coming out enough maybe yeah, I can feel it coming out of

1017
01:18:54.800 --> 01:18:57.560
the vents though, Yeah, but
is it coming out strong? Have you

1018
01:18:57.680 --> 01:19:00.479
changed the cabin filter in this one. I don't know if the twenty ten

1019
01:19:00.600 --> 01:19:02.239
Ford has it, but that can
cause it. It doesn't. I've changed

1020
01:19:02.279 --> 01:19:06.039
it twice. And do you hit
the AC when you turn on the defrost

1021
01:19:06.119 --> 01:19:10.359
or do you hit the AC button
to pull moisture. I've even tried that.

1022
01:19:10.479 --> 01:19:14.239
I've tried doing AC on the defoss
mode as well to see if that

1023
01:19:14.279 --> 01:19:17.720
would do it. And any of
those different indicators on the control panel I've

1024
01:19:17.760 --> 01:19:24.680
tried, and it just it's it's
frustrating. It's anything I've tried. Now

1025
01:19:24.840 --> 01:19:28.439
I kind of agree with you.
Maybe that maybe even though I'm getting air

1026
01:19:28.560 --> 01:19:31.520
out of the vents, maybe there's
a gate valve that's not fully allowing all

1027
01:19:31.560 --> 01:19:34.479
of the volume of air to come
through. Perhaps. Yeah, I'm pretty

1028
01:19:34.520 --> 01:19:40.760
sure that model is vacuum operated,
if mine serves me right. And sometimes

1029
01:19:40.760 --> 01:19:43.840
those vacuum hoses can have a small
leak, so it is changing but not

1030
01:19:43.880 --> 01:19:46.119
pulling it all the way closed.
Just just an idea. I'm not sure

1031
01:19:46.119 --> 01:19:49.359
that's what it is. Just throwing
that out. Do you smell anything,

1032
01:19:49.399 --> 01:19:56.079
so call me sound well, smell
anything sweet? Like you pinhole leak in

1033
01:19:56.119 --> 01:20:00.079
a heater core, something that's introducing
more so is it possible that the airflow

1034
01:20:00.159 --> 01:20:05.439
is just insufficient? Yes? So
how would he know if this blower motor

1035
01:20:05.680 --> 01:20:10.199
is operating at peak efficiency? How
would you know? I would just put

1036
01:20:10.239 --> 01:20:13.279
a piece of paper there. Is
it flapping really really hard? Or is

1037
01:20:13.319 --> 01:20:16.760
this barely moving? Yeah, it
sounds to me when he said there's just

1038
01:20:16.800 --> 01:20:21.039
this little circle that you're not getting
airflow, because if it's doing it in

1039
01:20:21.079 --> 01:20:26.119
that one circle, it'll do it
all over. There's nothing magic about that

1040
01:20:26.279 --> 01:20:30.479
circle. And heater core pinhole can
be there, but usually that's going to

1041
01:20:30.560 --> 01:20:31.960
leave a litle Jay, you have
a comment. I'm going to bring up

1042
01:20:32.039 --> 01:20:34.840
Jay as well. Jay, go
ahead, what is your comment? You're

1043
01:20:34.880 --> 01:20:40.560
on with Frank and Oss? Go
ahead? Yeah, that actually is a

1044
01:20:40.600 --> 01:20:45.640
really classic symptom of a heater core
gone bad. It'll blow hard enough and

1045
01:20:45.680 --> 01:20:48.000
hot enough and warm little spot that
it'll kind of clear it, but as

1046
01:20:48.039 --> 01:20:53.079
it gets a little bit cooler outside
that spot, it'll condense right to the

1047
01:20:53.119 --> 01:20:57.840
window. It's super classic. He
needs a heat your core undoubtedly? Absolutely

1048
01:20:57.920 --> 01:21:01.720
undoubtedly. And is that because it's
it's leaking? You think, yeah,

1049
01:21:01.800 --> 01:21:06.079
they're they're just a little tiny radiator. Now would your would your regular heat

1050
01:21:06.159 --> 01:21:13.640
reflect a bad heater core. It
eventually actually might get bad enough where you

1051
01:21:13.720 --> 01:21:16.159
run in your heat and it'll start
building up in the cabin and it'll start

1052
01:21:16.199 --> 01:21:19.720
condensing. But you're really going to
notice it when you try to defrost,

1053
01:21:19.800 --> 01:21:24.840
because it won't. It simply will
not do it. I got plenty of

1054
01:21:24.840 --> 01:21:28.159
good heat though. No, but
he was saying there, it won't change

1055
01:21:28.279 --> 01:21:30.159
whether heats or not. I mean, it'll just whether or not it drives

1056
01:21:30.199 --> 01:21:33.079
the air. It won't drive the
air. The air is going to come

1057
01:21:33.079 --> 01:21:36.680
out. So that's what that's what
a defrost is doing, drying as well

1058
01:21:36.720 --> 01:21:44.079
as because it uses the air conditions, not just heat. So so okay,

1059
01:21:44.119 --> 01:21:46.079
thanks man, I appreciate. So
when you turn on a defroster,

1060
01:21:46.279 --> 01:21:49.600
does it automatically pull from the air
conditioner? Yes, a lot of cars

1061
01:21:49.600 --> 01:21:54.079
it does, and then you get
the dehumidifier effect from the air conditioning.

1062
01:21:54.359 --> 01:21:59.199
I often wondered why I switched on
my AC. Nowadays it automatically does it

Hi Tom Martino here, three O
three seven one three talk seven one

1081
01:23:32.680 --> 01:23:41.439
three eight two five five. So
with mortgage rates at seven percent, I'm

1082
01:23:41.439 --> 01:23:46.279
wondering what effect that's having on real
estate now, Frank Duran says. I

1083
01:23:46.399 --> 01:23:56.760
checked with him and he said they're
still selling and they're even getting multiple offers,

1084
01:23:57.560 --> 01:24:02.680
and that to me is amazing.
Now seven percent, you don't understand

1085
01:24:02.720 --> 01:24:06.640
seven percent compared to where they used
to be. It's aced out a ton

1086
01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:13.239
of buyers, a ton of them
are now out of the market that at

1087

one time we're considering homes three zero
three seven one three talks seven one three

1088
01:24:18.239 --> 01:24:24.079
two five five. Guys, the
gap, the quality gap between foreign and

1089
01:24:24.119 --> 01:24:30.600
domestic. Somebody texted wants to know
what are you seeing truly on the service

1090
01:24:30.720 --> 01:24:32.760
end as far as the quality gap
it used to be. You know,

1091
01:24:33.000 --> 01:24:36.800
for a while Americans took a hit. Don't buy this, don't buy that,

1092
01:24:36.920 --> 01:24:43.319
you know, buy your buy your
stuff, buy your foreign stuff,

1093
01:24:43.600 --> 01:24:48.039
more dependable, lasts longer, blah
blah blah. They're still lagging American cars.

1094
01:24:48.119 --> 01:24:51.079
They really wait, really well,
you know, Jesse, we were

1095
01:24:51.159 --> 01:24:55.279
just talking about one a chronic problem
in a Jeep that Jeep just won't fix,

1096
01:24:55.800 --> 01:24:59.960
you know, Camschefs and the Jeeps
are terrible in the three sixteep almost

1097
01:25:00.159 --> 01:25:02.600
every single one on the road,
it's gonna need camshafts at eighty thousand miles.

1098
01:25:02.960 --> 01:25:08.800
I think the other thing that we
see is for a long time they

1099
01:25:08.800 --> 01:25:12.600
weren't doing maintenances on American vehicles like
they were on your forearms. Right every

1100
01:25:12.640 --> 01:25:15.279
thirty you do your transmission fluid.
American car would say, why do your

1101
01:25:15.279 --> 01:25:19.119
transmission fluid. It's important that you
change those fluids too. So we've got

1102
01:25:19.119 --> 01:25:23.479
to get everybody to understand that maintenance
is so important on vehicles. You want

1103
01:25:23.479 --> 01:25:25.960
to maintain them, you've got to
do maintenance on them. Let's take a

1104
01:25:25.960 --> 01:25:30.760
pickup truck, okay, a Chevy
pickup truck, a Ford pickup truck.

1105
01:25:30.039 --> 01:25:34.119
Let's take some foreign pickup trucks.
What really do you have that the Toyota

1106
01:25:34.239 --> 01:25:39.399
is the big one? What else? What other really to Toyota Tundra?

1107
01:25:39.800 --> 01:25:45.600
Okay? So those two how those
Ford trucks do the Nissan and the Tundra

1108
01:25:45.680 --> 01:25:51.000
and the Toyota put to shame?
With the longevity and the durability and the

1109
01:25:51.079 --> 01:25:56.479
engine, does it put to shane
the American I wouldn't say, you put

1110
01:25:56.520 --> 01:25:59.239
them to shame? And they have
their size and downsides. I mean the

1111
01:25:59.239 --> 01:26:01.279
fact that the Big three, uh
you know, sell more here in the

1112
01:26:01.279 --> 01:26:04.199
States dictates we're going to see them
in the shop a lot more often than

1113
01:26:04.199 --> 01:26:06.880
we're going to see the Tundra of
the Titan. Uh. You know,

1114
01:26:06.920 --> 01:26:10.920
they all have their websites and downsize. You know, look at the Tundra

1115
01:26:10.960 --> 01:26:14.560
compared to the Chevy. You're gonna
get better fuel economy. The Tundra is

1116
01:26:14.560 --> 01:26:16.880
a good heavy truck. Definitely four
wheels. Well but uh, you know

1117
01:26:17.079 --> 01:26:23.640
they're so on all all. So
are you saying they're not that much better

1118
01:26:23.680 --> 01:26:27.600
than the American drug Not? In
my opinion, no, So I think

1119
01:26:27.640 --> 01:26:30.960
the trucks are closer. Yeah,
okay, what about the gaps in SUVs?

1120
01:26:31.399 --> 01:26:34.560
Is that where the gaps are SUV's
and cars? For sure? For

1121
01:26:34.600 --> 01:26:45.319
sure? Okay and okay, we
talked about this. What are the what

1122
01:26:45.399 --> 01:26:49.159
are the most convenient cars to own
ever? Where you don't have to wait

1123
01:26:49.199 --> 01:26:56.000
for parts, easy to service,
relatively not low cause, but you know

1124
01:26:56.039 --> 01:27:00.159
it's not going to knock your head
off. Remember I said vehicles that you

1125
01:27:00.159 --> 01:27:04.399
would put in that category all around
vehicles, anything come to mind where you're

1126
01:27:04.439 --> 01:27:08.720
not waiting for you know that's the
same list. I mean almost every time

1127
01:27:08.720 --> 01:27:12.600
we do. You know, Toyota's
tops, tops, all of them really

1128
01:27:12.800 --> 01:27:17.119
absolutely, So with a Toyota,
you'll have more convenience, more parts availability,

1129
01:27:17.399 --> 01:27:20.119
less wait times. Yep, as
long as you don't need a transmission,

1130
01:27:20.119 --> 01:27:25.359
because I tell you what's Toyota probably
the worst that we have to deal

1131
01:27:25.439 --> 01:27:30.399
with right now, transmiss transmission,
part everything. Transmission is if you know

1132
01:27:30.600 --> 01:27:32.279
what they're dealing with and what I'm
dealing with, two different worlds. Yep,

1133
01:27:32.439 --> 01:27:35.680
that's true, okay, But as
far as regular service, the Toyota

1134
01:27:36.399 --> 01:27:45.720
and the support, the parts availability
way better. What's the worst? Christ

1135
01:27:47.239 --> 01:27:51.279
hard for parts, hard for parts, back, quarter back, under back

1136
01:27:51.359 --> 01:27:56.920
order, discontinued, They'll discontinue with
ten years almost everything. And then when

1137
01:27:56.920 --> 01:28:00.600
you get a problem, it's not
just one, it's the whole line of

1138
01:28:00.640 --> 01:28:03.159
them. Like any car that's got
that part in that engine, they're all

1139
01:28:03.159 --> 01:28:09.560
going to go bad. Heater core, well, all their trucks have heater

1140
01:28:09.600 --> 01:28:14.880
core problems, right, it's just
all the all right, and then the

1141
01:28:15.039 --> 01:28:21.479
vehicles where the same recurring problems have
been going on so long you scratch your

1142
01:28:21.520 --> 01:28:29.279
head as to why manufacturers these are
weird categories. But as to why manufacturers

1143
01:28:29.319 --> 01:28:31.600
never corrected it or take as long
as they did, What do you think

1144
01:28:31.680 --> 01:28:35.880
subrew is never going to correct their
head gasket? That's just that's just subers

1145
01:28:35.920 --> 01:28:40.960
have a head gasket problem, always
will and they just what is wrong with

1146
01:28:41.039 --> 01:28:44.800
it? Do they do they warp
the heads or do they do the gaskets

1147
01:28:44.880 --> 01:28:47.159
just blow their heads? Don't really
warp them much. Basket, it's the

1148
01:28:47.239 --> 01:28:50.560
casket sitting in the oyal sideways the
whole time. You know, it's nobody's

1149
01:28:50.560 --> 01:28:54.800
figured it out or they would have
fixed it. So so what does that

1150
01:28:54.880 --> 01:28:57.880
mean when you have a subrew?
You're going to have to replace the head

1151
01:28:57.880 --> 01:29:00.920
gasket. Correct service is what we
call. Well that's okay, that's not

1152
01:29:01.079 --> 01:29:05.479
terrible if it goes that long.
But is the engine otherwise pretty bulletproof?

1153
01:29:05.640 --> 01:29:09.279
Yeah, yeah, yeah, as
long as you don't let the head gas

1154
01:29:09.359 --> 01:29:13.199
get be a problem. Yeah,
because they do eat some oil. Super

1155
01:29:13.399 --> 01:29:16.479
says that every thousand miles you can
go through a court of oil, no

1156
01:29:16.600 --> 01:29:19.680
problem, that's normal. But they
only hold four and a half. And

1157
01:29:19.720 --> 01:29:25.399
when it comes to Japanese cars,
are the engines made by each of them?

1158
01:29:25.520 --> 01:29:31.199
Toyota makes their own yes, Nissan
makes their own okay, Everyone makes

1159
01:29:31.199 --> 01:29:38.560
their own okay? Is okay?
And then what about then rebuilding replacements for

1160
01:29:38.600 --> 01:29:43.159
those readily available in America? You
don't have to go to the factory.

1161
01:29:43.119 --> 01:29:45.520
And the only time we've ever had
a problem with getting the rebuilt locally is

1162
01:29:45.560 --> 01:29:49.319
a BMW we had to get from
Germany. But outside of that, yeah,

1163
01:29:49.359 --> 01:29:54.520
most of the doesn't matter whether it's
a Toyota or Ford. They rebuild

1164
01:29:54.560 --> 01:29:58.840
them here in the state. And
so what would be the most expensive cars

1165
01:29:58.880 --> 01:30:01.800
to maintain in gen We'll talk about
that coming up three oh three, seven

1170
01:30:15.239 --> 01:30:19.520
that. Okay. Uh, somebody
has this one here? A g alexis

1171
01:30:19.600 --> 01:30:28.960
GX four sixty one hundred and seventy
thousand miles runs like brand new. All

1172
01:30:29.000 --> 01:30:30.720
you ever have to do is change
fluids now and then. So what do

1173
01:30:30.760 --> 01:30:35.159
you think about that? He said, I'll never buy American again? The

1174

that those are really rock solid art pretty

tough you and it is a larger
RECUV And the Lexus is Toyota, right

1176
01:30:45.880 --> 01:30:50.239
yep so, and then Acura would
be part of Honda. Honda. Are

1177
01:30:50.279 --> 01:30:56.520
the accurates just as good? No, I would not say so. I

1178
01:30:56.560 --> 01:31:00.560
would say that Toyota Lexus definitely has
Honda acrobeat all right, more coming up,

Hi Tom Martino, you're a troubleshooter.

1186
01:31:45.680 --> 01:31:48.359
Mark's got a comment on cars.
We've been talking about maintenance and repairs and

1187
01:31:48.479 --> 01:31:54.439
convenience and orders and parts availability.
Go ahead, sir, well the other

1188
01:31:54.600 --> 01:31:57.640
your comments here just saying I'm gonna
make quickcoments on four cars. I own

1189
01:31:57.720 --> 01:32:01.119
two tows. In two thousand and
three, I put nineteen grand into to

1190
01:32:01.279 --> 01:32:04.279
say, why would you do that? Well, I bought it new,

1191
01:32:04.439 --> 01:32:10.239
and I bought a whole new factory
GM drive for not remanufactured new because I

1192
01:32:10.359 --> 01:32:13.880
like the car. Huh, I'm
an eighteen. I like it. It's

1193
01:32:13.920 --> 01:32:15.640
got barn doors, sentri if I
bought a brand new, it's my hunting

1194
01:32:15.680 --> 01:32:19.439
truck. So I look at it
this way. These new vehicles are getting

1195
01:32:19.439 --> 01:32:25.079
too complicated, too complex. My
rear here went on a dapross. I

1196
01:32:25.079 --> 01:32:28.920
went to the jiang Kaarden's got the
parts for seven bucks. Boom fixed done.

1197
01:32:30.000 --> 01:32:33.960
You know there's something to be said
about that. In fact, I've

1198
01:32:34.039 --> 01:32:41.800
often thought, when will a manufacturer
ever meet the need for those who want

1199
01:32:41.840 --> 01:32:45.680
basic and simple, like not all
models but one, and I really mean

1200
01:32:45.720 --> 01:32:48.640
basic and simple. But I don't
think it's going to happen. Toyota's in

1201
01:32:48.680 --> 01:32:53.239
the middle of bringing out a truck
that's very basic and simple, really drive

1202
01:32:53.560 --> 01:32:58.479
crank windows, entry level price of
thirty thousand dollars. Now that's incredible.

1203
01:32:58.479 --> 01:33:01.279
That'll kill the marketplace. I mean
it is what they say it is when

1204
01:33:01.279 --> 01:33:04.479
they released it, Mark, what
else did you say? How many times

1205
01:33:04.520 --> 01:33:09.520
I got? I got an eighteen
to, which is okay. But that's

1206
01:33:09.560 --> 01:33:12.279
the end of the line for me. It's the last of the solid axle.

1207
01:33:12.319 --> 01:33:15.159
I don't like to do suspension.
Of my best all around via cle

1208
01:33:15.159 --> 01:33:25.199
I ever owned was a Avalanche.
I absolutely positively loved the Avalanche. I

1209
01:33:25.239 --> 01:33:30.119
can't why, why when you have
a winning vehicle do you stop making it?

1210
01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:35.119
Why do they do that? Can
someone tell me why they stopped making

1211
01:33:35.159 --> 01:33:40.920
the Avalanche? Change? It was
a lack of sales. You can't keep

1212
01:33:40.960 --> 01:33:43.239
them. Not the ridge line is
the same way, and Honda changed the

1213
01:33:43.279 --> 01:33:45.720
ridge line and now it's nothing like
it used to be. Not the truck,

1214
01:33:46.159 --> 01:33:51.319
the Avalanche. How was it service
wise? I mean, same truck.

1215
01:33:51.439 --> 01:33:56.640
It was a gentleman's pickup. The
engine was rock solid, the interior

1216
01:33:56.840 --> 01:34:01.279
was nice. Oh man, I
just was so pissed off when they stop

1217
01:34:01.560 --> 01:34:06.560
making them. I always got one. I've had one for several years.

1218
01:34:06.640 --> 01:34:12.199
I loved it. I just loved
it. You don't even see that many

1219
01:34:12.239 --> 01:34:16.680
on the road, I know it. Yeah, I mean why, I

1220
01:34:16.720 --> 01:34:19.439
mean, honest to God, I
don't know why. And that those are

1221
01:34:19.479 --> 01:34:24.880
the kinds of things that just pissed
me off. It's the same question we

1222
01:34:24.920 --> 01:34:27.880
ask all the time back in two
thousand. You make a car that's still

1223
01:34:27.960 --> 01:34:30.840
running today, and now you can't
make a car that'll run, you know,

1224
01:34:30.960 --> 01:34:33.720
five years, like okay. So
we talked about the most convenient all

1225
01:34:33.760 --> 01:34:41.279
around cars for value parts availabily blah
blah blah, Nissan and Toyota. Right,

1226
01:34:41.359 --> 01:34:45.079
Toyota has them up beat, probably, and we also Hondas not bad,

1227
01:34:45.079 --> 01:34:48.520
but Toyota number one. Toyota,
Now let's talk. We talked about

1228
01:34:48.680 --> 01:34:53.840
what's the most inconvenient? Parts are
a pain in the ass, Wait times

1229
01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:59.359
are a pain in the ass?
Expensive, what BMW euro You can just

1230
01:34:59.399 --> 01:35:03.880
slap that ping badge on that Audi. You're dagon BMW all of them.

1231
01:35:03.880 --> 01:35:09.840
Many guys do not. You guys
do not like European cars. When we

1232
01:35:09.880 --> 01:35:14.439
say German, the Germans should stick
to making beer and losing wark. I

1233
01:35:14.479 --> 01:35:19.000
was always thought German engineering was the
They're great as long as you're leasing them,

1234
01:35:19.000 --> 01:35:21.479
and you keep them for three years
and you get another one as a

1235
01:35:21.560 --> 01:35:25.479
driver, you'll love it. Great
vehicles as soon as they hit fifty No

1236
01:35:25.600 --> 01:35:30.479
longevity, no, not without a
very expensive expense. Yeah, I tell

1237
01:35:30.520 --> 01:35:34.560
my BMW owners come in sixty thousand, plan on five grand a year.

1238
01:35:34.640 --> 01:35:38.760
You're going to put five grand a
year into this car, So everyone's going

1239
01:35:38.840 --> 01:35:44.279
to do that. Yeah, yeah, my factory warrant about like that though.

1240
01:35:44.479 --> 01:35:48.079
Yep. I don't touch Mercedes because
of it, because of the tools,

1241
01:35:48.199 --> 01:35:51.640
the parts, the problems. Yes, we stay clear. So so

1242
01:35:51.760 --> 01:35:58.840
this idea that they're they're rock solid
is bs. They're they're good new cars

1243
01:35:58.840 --> 01:36:01.760
the two thousand miles, then get
rid of it. Your problems are coming.

1244
01:36:02.000 --> 01:36:06.640
Yes, Why do they have such
good residual values for leases? Stigma

1245
01:36:08.920 --> 01:36:13.920
status status symbol? Yeah? Now
did I take mark or is this a

1246
01:36:13.960 --> 01:36:16.239
new one? He's still on Mark? Did you have thatcond Oh? Go

1247
01:36:16.239 --> 01:36:18.600
ahead? Do you have any other
comments? Go ahead of Mark? Yeah,

1248
01:36:18.720 --> 01:36:21.840
quickly. Okay, So now we're
gonna move on to my wife's car.

1249
01:36:21.960 --> 01:36:25.359
Oh, I'm sorry, go good, go ahead? All right?

1250
01:36:25.399 --> 01:36:29.560
All right. So she's got a
ball Doll twenty eleven XT seventy station wagon

1251
01:36:29.600 --> 01:36:32.239
portal drive. We bought that car
brand new. We don't care what it

1252
01:36:32.359 --> 01:36:38.079
costs to face. She does not
want an suv. There's very few station

1253
01:36:38.159 --> 01:36:41.159
wagons in a poor little drive anymore. The Mercedes is one hundred and sixty

1254
01:36:41.159 --> 01:36:45.199
five thousand dollars. She likes the
car and it fits her, and she

1255
01:36:45.279 --> 01:36:49.640
doesn't want an suv, so they
like two cookie cuver, which I agree.

1256
01:36:50.840 --> 01:36:56.000
Yep, Supers and Babbles are cult
cars. That's what we call them.

1257
01:36:56.119 --> 01:37:00.560
Supers and Babbles and super Okay,
So what about is Volvo considered Europeano?

1258
01:37:00.720 --> 01:37:03.840
Right? It is? Do you
like do you like Volvos guys or

1259
01:37:03.880 --> 01:37:08.000
is it the same as you put
it in the same class as the others

1260
01:37:08.239 --> 01:37:11.239
at fifty or sixty get rid of
them. The big difference is the Volvo

1261
01:37:11.319 --> 01:37:14.840
owner's going to spin to fix it. Your BMW owner doesn't want to.

1262
01:37:14.880 --> 01:37:16.199
They're going to move on to the
next model, the next model. The

1263
01:37:16.319 --> 01:37:20.119
Volvo owner loves that, just like
the Superwo owner. That's why we call

1264
01:37:20.159 --> 01:37:25.640
it cult cars. BMW's are weird
because they give the illusion of such quality,

1265
01:37:26.600 --> 01:37:30.239
but it's an illusion. You're saying, great marketing God. The same

1266
01:37:30.279 --> 01:37:33.960
as Cadillac. You know, on
the GM side, you own a Cadillac,

1267
01:37:34.039 --> 01:37:38.640
you better get rid of it at
sixty it'll crush you. Yeah,

1268
01:37:39.600 --> 01:37:43.000
they're all high end cars. But
he owns a Chevy Tahoe. Right,

1269
01:37:43.079 --> 01:37:45.319
that's just like a Cadillac Escalady,
just not paying the Cadillac price. But

1270
01:37:45.359 --> 01:37:48.880
he's driving the same vehicle, all
right. Three zero three seven one three

1271
01:37:48.960 --> 01:37:53.039
talk seven one three and two five
five. We invite you to join the

you're a troubleshooter three three seven one
three talks seven one three eight two five

1289
01:39:18.239 --> 01:39:25.119

a question on an IRA. What's going

1290
01:39:25.159 --> 01:39:30.119
on? Paul? Hey Tom,
I'm not sure what advice you can offer

1291
01:39:30.239 --> 01:39:35.520
up that I haven't already tried to
address. I'm calling for my father in

1292
01:39:35.600 --> 01:39:43.479
law who's eighty seven, and I've
been starting to help him with some of

1293
01:39:43.520 --> 01:39:49.840
his financial and legal items. He
has found some documents that he had an

1294
01:39:49.880 --> 01:39:54.880
IRA trust plan, and the only
document I have is with the the opening

1295
01:39:54.960 --> 01:39:58.800
package of it, and that was
in nineteen eighty four and it was from

1296
01:39:58.920 --> 01:40:04.520
Empire Saving which the main office was
in Denver, and he opened up the

1297
01:40:04.600 --> 01:40:09.560
account in North Glenn or something like
that. But in any case, that

1298
01:40:09.640 --> 01:40:16.520
particular savings bank was purchased by Commercial
Federal and then later became a commercial Federal

1299
01:40:16.560 --> 01:40:19.520
bank, and then in two thousand
and five it was bought out by Bank

1300
01:40:19.520 --> 01:40:25.319
of the West, which is now
BML out of Montreal. So I wanted

1301
01:40:25.359 --> 01:40:29.840
to find out whether he ever liquidated
it or you know, cashed in,

1302
01:40:30.199 --> 01:40:34.399
or whether it's just migrated from bank
to bank in some form. Well,

1303
01:40:34.439 --> 01:40:38.399
okay, it has no specific memory
of it, all right, let me

1304
01:40:38.439 --> 01:40:45.119
tell you what would happen if he
had an IRA. It would be one

1305
01:40:45.159 --> 01:40:48.359
thing we do have that I am
encouraged with. And since I got in

1306
01:40:48.399 --> 01:40:54.880
the financial business on the side with
it's a long story, I've learned about

1307
01:40:55.439 --> 01:41:01.399
the strict regulations and controls there are
on people's mind. You know. It's

1308
01:41:01.439 --> 01:41:06.119
a good thing. By the way, So with any kind any kind of

1309
01:41:06.439 --> 01:41:11.680
an abandoned account, they're not allowed
to keep it, they're not allowed to

1310
01:41:11.720 --> 01:41:15.520
transfer it, they're not allowed to
do anything send it to the state.

1311
01:41:15.159 --> 01:41:20.239
So if it's abandoned, and this
would have been classified way back as abandon

1312
01:41:21.000 --> 01:41:28.000
like back in before ninety, so
it would the only place it would be

1313
01:41:28.000 --> 01:41:31.159
if he had it, the only
place. Well, let's put it this

1314
01:41:31.199 --> 01:41:34.760
way. There could be three things. One he could have taken it and

1315
01:41:35.039 --> 01:41:42.640
doesn't remember, or somebody could have
defrauded him, maybe a caretaker or someone.

1316
01:41:42.680 --> 01:41:45.880
I'm not suspecting that, but they
found out about it, let's say,

1317
01:41:45.279 --> 01:41:53.399
and took it. Or the most
logical thing it would be with the

1318
01:41:53.520 --> 01:42:00.319
State Treasury, which is the Colorado
Payback or they're officially called they're a jeep

1319
01:42:00.359 --> 01:42:03.760
funds. Have you ever heard that
expression? Yes, I even checked on

1320
01:42:03.800 --> 01:42:09.760
the database online that if it's not
there, Paul, they would not retain

1321
01:42:09.800 --> 01:42:14.119
it. They would not do it, Okay, because I contacted Empire,

1322
01:42:15.000 --> 01:42:17.680
they have no record of it,
of course, not their IRA division or

1323
01:42:17.720 --> 01:42:25.520
obviously their banks. And I also
checked on the abandit you know, abandoned

1324
01:42:25.760 --> 01:42:31.079
accounts, and he's got maybe twenty
dollars sitting there from some other lost accounts,

1325
01:42:31.119 --> 01:42:34.439
but not this IRL. Now,
the IRA, how much did he

1326
01:42:34.520 --> 01:42:42.319
open it with a couple of thousand
and at this point it would have been

1327
01:42:42.439 --> 01:42:45.520
over fifty six thousand dollars it would
have been probably sixty grant or so.

1328
01:42:46.119 --> 01:42:50.000
And he just has no specific memory. He's not saying that, No,

1329
01:42:50.079 --> 01:42:56.000
I understand it didn't. But the
only place that would be absence of fraud.

1330
01:42:56.800 --> 01:43:00.159
And even here's the bad news.
Even if there was fraud, they

1331
01:43:00.199 --> 01:43:03.199
got away with it. Even if
you knew who did it, they got

1332
01:43:03.239 --> 01:43:06.720
away. There's nothing you can do
about it. That's why, folks,

1333
01:43:06.760 --> 01:43:11.560

mind, give us a call. The

1357
01:45:17.720 --> 01:45:21.920
home show started, I wanted to
get a report from somebody who went there.

1358
01:45:21.960 --> 01:45:29.000
If you dropped down, it's an
indoor show Douglas County Fairgrounds and it's

1359
01:45:29.039 --> 01:45:33.800
the Cassrock Home Show all weekend.
So welcome to the show, by the

1360
01:45:33.840 --> 01:45:40.279
way, and give us a call
if you need help, information or referrals.

1361
01:45:41.000 --> 01:45:47.159
And I wanted to talk about a
few things first and foremost. When

1362
01:45:47.159 --> 01:45:51.520
it comes to hacking, it used
to be people would get a virus on

1363
01:45:51.560 --> 01:45:57.960
their computer, or people would have, you know, some kind of problem

1364
01:45:58.239 --> 01:46:02.199
with their computer they were harmed.
And then we had serious stuff like identity

1365
01:46:02.239 --> 01:46:06.840
theft, where they'd go in and
not only mess with your computer, but

1366
01:46:06.960 --> 01:46:15.039
somehow extract information in order to get
your logins. And then we had even

1367
01:46:15.079 --> 01:46:21.560
worse malware. They go into big
hospitals and towns and corporations and lock your

1368
01:46:21.600 --> 01:46:28.399
files down tight with a worm that
gets into your system, and then you

1369
01:46:28.479 --> 01:46:32.039
have to pay to encrypt it to
unencrypted. Now they do once you pay

1370
01:46:32.039 --> 01:46:35.119
the ransom. I often wonder why
do these guys do that when you pay

1371
01:46:35.119 --> 01:46:39.199
the ransom. They could just take
the money and run, but they want

1372
01:46:39.199 --> 01:46:43.680
a good name in the hacking business
because they want people to pay the ransom.

1373
01:46:44.439 --> 01:46:45.920
And if it ever got around that
you didn't you didn't do what you

1374
01:46:45.960 --> 01:46:49.119
said after the ransom, then people
wouldn't be paying it. So people pay

1375
01:46:49.159 --> 01:46:54.640
the ransom, and the FBI has
been trying to crack down on these.

1376
01:46:55.000 --> 01:47:00.479
Well, now municipal systems that run
on computers are now being the target.

1377
01:47:01.039 --> 01:47:08.720
Water systems, sewer systems, nuclear
systems, they say, although it hasn't

1378
01:47:08.720 --> 01:47:16.720
happened yet. And a water tower
in Texas it overflowed in January, spilling

1379
01:47:16.920 --> 01:47:25.520
tens of thousands of gallons of water
into the street. Guess what. They

1380
01:47:25.520 --> 01:47:33.039
did a deep search with a cyber
security company and found that these water systems

1381
01:47:35.039 --> 01:47:43.720
were attacked by Russia. That Russia
has a hack army. They literally have

1382
01:47:43.800 --> 01:47:49.039
an army now that they're building to
do cyber warfare. You know, I

1383
01:47:49.119 --> 01:47:53.199
said this a while ago, and
I think everybody believes it. Everybody said

1384
01:47:53.279 --> 01:47:59.560
I wasn't the only one, okay, and that is that cyber warfare will

1385
01:47:59.600 --> 01:48:03.840
be our next warfare. You can
do as much harm or more going to

1386
01:48:03.920 --> 01:48:12.880
someone's infrastructure. So Russia has dedicated
themselves to getting an army together of nerds.

1387
01:48:14.760 --> 01:48:17.399
Think about that, as does China
even more than Russia. You know,

1388
01:48:17.560 --> 01:48:21.359
do we have one? Of course
we do. I don't know about

1389
01:48:21.359 --> 01:48:25.520
that, do we. I mean
it's part of you of the A M

1390
01:48:25.600 --> 01:48:30.439
forces. I'm sure there's a security
branch. I wonder, I truly wonder

1391
01:48:30.119 --> 01:48:34.640
if we have a hack force or
an anti hack force, or if we

1392
01:48:34.720 --> 01:48:39.239
have cyber security people. You know, the Space Force. People laughed about

1393
01:48:39.439 --> 01:48:42.560
Space Force is going to be a
big deal. But do we have a

1394
01:48:42.600 --> 01:48:46.039
cyber security force? Do I guarantee
that we do? Tom Do you think

1395
01:48:46.600 --> 01:48:51.439
how could we not in the twenty
first century. But but what's really strange

1396
01:48:53.239 --> 01:48:59.680
is what's going to happen to this
country or to this world with this with

1397
01:48:59.680 --> 01:49:02.399
this warfare. Now you're not gonna
have bloodshed, Well, you could have

1398
01:49:02.439 --> 01:49:09.159
a lot of lives endangered. But
they're saying so much as these Russian hackers.

1399
01:49:09.159 --> 01:49:13.199
Now maybe Chinese, but I'm reading
about the Russian ones. They're learning

1400
01:49:13.199 --> 01:49:18.600
how to hack into traffic control systems, subway control systems, trains, switchers.

1401
01:49:19.159 --> 01:49:26.720
I mean, everything is on computer. Everything is on computer. Airplanes,

1402
01:49:28.680 --> 01:49:33.279
you know airliners. Think about the
control systems. What could be done?

1403
01:49:34.520 --> 01:49:41.840
Do you know like the interpretations we
do with GPS receivers, they're all

1404
01:49:42.000 --> 01:49:47.680
computerized. I mean not the GPS
itself receives a signal, but the triangulation

1405
01:49:47.920 --> 01:49:53.479
and mapping software that all could be
hacked to where you think you're following a

1406
01:49:53.520 --> 01:49:58.720
GPS but it's off. How about
just knocking out satellit. It's the same

1407
01:49:58.760 --> 01:50:03.439
deal. That's right. So to
me, it's a frightening idea. It's

1408
01:50:03.520 --> 01:50:10.359
truly frightening that that everywhere we look, we're going to have a battlefront.

1409
01:50:11.359 --> 01:50:15.199
But I can't. And that's why
a lot of people were suspicious. And

1410
01:50:15.239 --> 01:50:19.199
I don't know where did the banning
go of TikTok. Is that still happening

1411
01:50:19.279 --> 01:50:24.600
or did they decide to sell whatever
happened with that. We were Congress was

1412
01:50:24.640 --> 01:50:27.640
all about banning, and they were
within a few days of banning TikTok.

1413
01:50:27.760 --> 01:50:31.000
It was tied to the Ukraine and
Israel AID. And now they've split all

1414
01:50:31.000 --> 01:50:36.239
that apart. So there's going to
be Israel AID alone from Ukraine Aid then

1415
01:50:36.399 --> 01:50:41.920
separate from the TikTok ban and TikTok
is still available. Tom well, of

1416
01:50:42.000 --> 01:50:44.520
course it is. They didn't do
it yet, he said. They separated

1417
01:50:44.560 --> 01:50:46.880
him up and now instead of having
one big bill, there are three of

1418
01:50:46.920 --> 01:50:50.560
them and now they're going so that'll
still come up for debate and stuff.

1419
01:50:50.560 --> 01:50:57.079
Then, right, it's still under
consideration, and people are convinced that through

1420
01:50:57.199 --> 01:51:02.399
the TikTok it's one of the ways
that they will have entry into our cyber

1421
01:51:02.479 --> 01:51:05.800
system. Chinese. Do you believe
that? I mean, Mark is very

1422
01:51:05.840 --> 01:51:10.720
skeptical of TikTok. I'm not on
TikTok so I'm safe. I mean it's

1423
01:51:10.760 --> 01:51:13.079
making us a dumber. I mean, if you've ever been on it,

1424
01:51:13.159 --> 01:51:15.479
well, do you think it's going
to be like mutually sure destruction was in

1425
01:51:15.560 --> 01:51:19.920
the Cold War, where both Russia
and the US knew that if either started

1426
01:51:20.800 --> 01:51:25.560
a war. I'm just hoping.
I'm just hoping everything is backed up to

1427
01:51:25.600 --> 01:51:29.279
a point where who cares? Right, if you knock out our system,

1428
01:51:29.319 --> 01:51:32.119
you have another one. I mean, why wouldn't you have one hundred backups

1429
01:51:32.199 --> 01:51:36.039
a day? Why couldn't you?
I mean there's no cost of reproductions technically,

1430
01:51:36.199 --> 01:51:43.399
just storage. But there must be
a way to back up to a

1431
01:51:43.479 --> 01:51:46.920
point where you simply restore. You
know, you know, war is one

1432
01:51:46.960 --> 01:51:51.279
thing, right, and anti hacking, But if they hack a system like

1433
01:51:51.359 --> 01:51:56.199
these hospitals and stuff, if they
hacked the system, why can't they go

1434
01:51:56.239 --> 01:51:59.840
and get the new one up and
running? Why? I never wondered.

1435
01:51:59.880 --> 01:52:02.399
I never understood. I mean,
and if somebody is smarter than me listening,

1436
01:52:03.279 --> 01:52:09.119
if you have a complete system running
your hospital and all the records are

1437
01:52:09.199 --> 01:52:15.439
encrypted, everything's encrypted. What about
the backups did they getting? I think

1438
01:52:15.479 --> 01:52:19.279
what? Probably these backups have the
worm in it too. I don't know,

1439
01:52:19.680 --> 01:52:24.720
I don't know the reason, but
you would think that with our brains

1440
01:52:24.720 --> 01:52:28.640
that we have today, we would
come up with a way to back up

1441
01:52:29.680 --> 01:52:32.760
native files or something to where you
wouldn't have to pay ten million dollars to

1442
01:52:32.840 --> 01:52:36.399
somebody. It's amazing. I know
in my practice we backed up our patient

1443
01:52:36.399 --> 01:52:42.199
files every day onto a floppy disk. Well, I know that it was

1444
01:52:42.199 --> 01:52:45.039
so easy to do that. You
would think hospitals would have some mechanism to

1445
01:52:45.159 --> 01:52:49.640
download it onto a USB. You
know, when malware takes over and encrypts

1446
01:52:49.640 --> 01:52:57.680
stuff, it encrypts it now,
but it is that worm hidden in there.

1447
01:52:58.159 --> 01:53:00.640
So when they back up it,
it's into their backups as well.

1448
01:53:01.159 --> 01:53:04.479
Yeah, but like I have a
backup. So when my system went down

1449
01:53:04.520 --> 01:53:08.399
one day, we just went back
to the last time it was working,

1450
01:53:08.439 --> 01:53:10.800
which would have been Friday, right, And then they went back there and

1451
01:53:10.840 --> 01:53:14.159
opened it up to Friday, and
we started there. We lost Saturday and

1452
01:53:14.239 --> 01:53:17.359
Sunday, right, But at least
you go right back where you were and

1453
01:53:17.399 --> 01:53:23.000
start rolling. Yeah, I have
to believe it's not as simple as just

1454
01:53:23.119 --> 01:53:27.479
backing up and not paying a not
paying malware. There must be a reason

1455
01:53:27.520 --> 01:53:35.479
they pay these exorbitant malware ransoms.
So anti it, anti malware, or

1456
01:53:35.560 --> 01:53:41.800
let's put it this way, cybersecurity, it is going to be of utmost

1457
01:53:41.880 --> 01:53:45.640
Now, I don't just mean on
the military end, but for people to

1458
01:53:45.800 --> 01:53:51.000
protect their companies. I imagine that's
a pretty damn big business right now.

1459
01:53:51.680 --> 01:53:58.880
That you hire these people to make
you malware proof, hack proof. You

1460
01:53:58.880 --> 01:54:02.720
know they simulate a all the time
and find weaknesses. It's amazing to me

1461

you're a troubleshooter. Three oh three
seven one three talk three oh three seven

1470
01:54:57.439 --> 01:55:00.640
one three eight two five five.
Compass Insurance Group, by the way,

1471
01:55:00.159 --> 01:55:06.920
still doing insurance checkups, an independent
look at your insurance to see you're not

1472
01:55:06.960 --> 01:55:12.039
paying too much or you're not under
insured or over insured. Because there's something

1473
01:55:12.039 --> 01:55:15.479
about three nine nine six nine thousand. Yeah. Well, I think it's

1474
01:55:15.520 --> 01:55:18.039
amazing is that I've been with them
every year. They call me up,

1475
01:55:18.319 --> 01:55:21.039
I know, without my asking them, and they go over. They go

1476
01:55:21.079 --> 01:55:25.119
over to see if they can say
great. I think that's incredible. It

1477
01:55:25.199 --> 01:55:28.079
isn't great. You feel like you're
in good I should say in good hands,

1478
01:55:28.119 --> 01:55:30.800
because that's that other ugly come But
no Compass this great? Hey Eric,

1479
01:55:30.840 --> 01:55:33.760
what's going on? Hey Tom?
Hey, you got a question for

1480
01:55:34.279 --> 01:55:40.319
Jeff? Why am I not hearing
you? Oh? There you go go

1481
01:55:40.359 --> 01:55:43.840
ahead, go yead I hear you. Can you hear me? Yes,

1482
01:55:43.880 --> 01:55:45.279
sir, I can hear you?
All right. So I got a question

1483
01:55:45.319 --> 01:55:49.760
for Jeff. My wife is after
going to the auto show here a few

1484
01:55:49.760 --> 01:55:53.800
weeks ago, my wife has found
a new car that she's interested in,

1485
01:55:54.239 --> 01:56:00.079
and I am curious. Are the
new CBT transmissions through Knee Song better than

1486
01:56:00.119 --> 01:56:04.079
what they were previously, because she
really what does she like? What is

1487
01:56:04.159 --> 01:56:09.199
she like? Well, she really
fell in love with the new Ultima all

1488
01:56:09.239 --> 01:56:13.479
wheel drive and we test drove it. What's the model you really like it?

1489
01:56:14.039 --> 01:56:17.159
Oh? It's called who makes it? Okay, Nissan Ultima? Okay,

1490
01:56:17.159 --> 01:56:20.119
got it. Yeah. Then Nissan
really kind of stuck all their eggs

1491
01:56:20.159 --> 01:56:24.479
in that basket in a passenger car
market. Almost every car they make as

1492
01:56:24.520 --> 01:56:28.840
a CVT, I would say they're
better, Yes, would I say that

1493
01:56:29.000 --> 01:56:32.119
we've reached to the point of reliability
that's going to take time to tell.

1494
01:56:33.960 --> 01:56:40.520
Okay, well, tell me what
does she like about it? Now?

1495
01:56:40.760 --> 01:56:43.680
It's not an suv. It looks
like a car to me, right,

1496
01:56:43.880 --> 01:56:46.640
Yeah, it's yeah, it's a
regular Sedanza. It's freaking beautiful. Golly,

1497
01:56:47.800 --> 01:56:53.279
yeah, she looks like a fancy
beamer. Yeah, I mean she

1498
01:56:53.479 --> 01:56:58.000
just we sat in at the auto
show and it's it's got tons of interior

1499
01:56:58.000 --> 01:57:00.920
space. I mean, I'm six
foot, my wife's five to two.

1500
01:57:02.159 --> 01:57:04.720
She put the seat where it was
good for her and I sat behind her

1501
01:57:04.720 --> 01:57:09.359
and I was like, okay,
home, James, because that's about the

1502
01:57:09.800 --> 01:57:13.760
leg rooms that I had, and
so we were you know, really liked

1503
01:57:13.760 --> 01:57:17.000
it and we've testro of it,
and she's you know, she's kind of

1504
01:57:17.000 --> 01:57:19.920
contemplating in the next few wee.
Well, Jeff's go see, like how

1505
01:57:20.119 --> 01:57:24.000
just how bad are those transmissions?
Come on? Well, you know,

1506
01:57:24.079 --> 01:57:27.520
coming up into the two thousand and
twenty twenty one or excuse me not two

1507
01:57:27.520 --> 01:57:30.960
thousand to twenty twenty twenty twenty one, you know, we have some improvements.

1508
01:57:30.000 --> 01:57:32.079
We're not seeing as many of them, but I mean we're gonna see

1509
01:57:32.119 --> 01:57:35.279
more and more over time, that's
for sure. Prior to that they had

1510
01:57:35.319 --> 01:57:39.119
an extremely high rate of failure.
Yeah, but not now, right,

1511
01:57:39.319 --> 01:57:42.680
I mean, time's gonna tell what
do you think is going to a car

1512
01:57:42.800 --> 01:57:45.560
mileage on them? We'll find out
what do you not like about them in

1513
01:57:45.640 --> 01:57:48.399
general? The regular failures of them. I mean, they but they're a

1514
01:57:48.439 --> 01:57:53.319
cone, right, and it's a
constant philosophy. Yeah, you've got two

1515
01:57:53.359 --> 01:57:58.039
separate pulleys that will expand and constrict, so similar to like a ten speed

1516
01:57:58.119 --> 01:58:00.720
bicycle where you're changing the size of
the spread. But since they're actually moving

1517
01:58:00.760 --> 01:58:04.279
back and forth, mitchure that you
don't have that actual transition. It just

1518
01:58:04.399 --> 01:58:08.840
moves up and down the height in
the shallow of the cone. Yeah,

1519
01:58:09.079 --> 01:58:14.520
the belt does exactly. So what
i'd like to know the same situation or

1520
01:58:14.560 --> 01:58:17.159
just keep up on the maintenance on
the ring. Well, maintenance with anything.

1521
01:58:17.399 --> 01:58:20.720
Maintenance with anything is going to be
crucial, you know if you've Jesse

1522
01:58:20.760 --> 01:58:24.720
alluded to it earlier, where you
know, the American manufacturer likes to try

1523
01:58:24.760 --> 01:58:28.359
to tell everybody you don't never need
to service your transmission, go eight nine,

1524
01:58:28.439 --> 01:58:30.880
ten thousand miles on an oil change. These are just marketing gimmicks in

1525
01:58:30.960 --> 01:58:33.399
order to sell the car. Yeah, you know, if you actually want

1526
01:58:33.399 --> 01:58:36.039
to keep the car going, change
those flues. It's the cheapest thing you'll

1527
01:58:36.079 --> 01:58:40.399
put in there. So what about
this? I've got Eric, Eric,

1528
01:58:40.439 --> 01:58:43.439
what about this? What do you
care? How are you going to keep

1529
01:58:43.439 --> 01:58:45.760
it for ten years? What do
you I'm not asking like, oh yeah,

1530
01:58:45.840 --> 01:58:48.119
yeah, okay, yeah, that's
what I wanted to know. So

1531
01:58:48.239 --> 01:58:53.560
you're a long term owner. You're
a long term owner? Yeah, I

1532
01:58:53.560 --> 01:58:57.079
mean, sir as, I've got
a twenty fifteen niece on pickup with it

1533
01:58:57.239 --> 01:59:00.159
just hit one hundred and ninety thousand
miles and the body and the interior is

1534
01:59:00.159 --> 01:59:03.279
still in next to the condition as
long as the mechanicals hold up. You

1535
01:59:03.319 --> 01:59:08.640
know, it may be my last
vehicle because I have you know, I

1536
01:59:08.960 --> 01:59:11.159
know the history of it, and
I just keep up on a lot of

1537
01:59:11.319 --> 01:59:16.199
maintenance. Have you ever thought about
an electric vehicle? No? Not really.

1538
01:59:16.359 --> 01:59:18.680
You know what. The more I
talk to these guys, the more

1539
01:59:18.720 --> 01:59:24.319
I'm being sold on them, because
there is no life limit like there is

1540
01:59:24.359 --> 01:59:27.800
on and John. I'll tell you
what, Tom, When when Uncle Joe

1541
01:59:27.840 --> 01:59:30.840
gives me twenty thousand dollars to rewire
my house so I can have an EV

1542
01:59:31.279 --> 01:59:34.640
then we'll talk, because it's going
to cost me twenty thousand dollars to rewire

1543
01:59:34.680 --> 01:59:40.760
my house. No ev what because
when my house was built, they put

1544
01:59:40.800 --> 01:59:44.640
my uh my box on the wrong
side of the house instead of being on

1545
01:59:44.680 --> 01:59:47.479
the garage side on the house.
Okay, well then that stiff wired.

1546
01:59:47.720 --> 01:59:55.279
I see what you're saying. But
you can you have a dryer plug the

1547
01:59:55.359 --> 01:59:59.159
same side of the house as the
box. Okay, then move your garage.

1548
02:00:00.760 --> 02:00:03.119
I don't know what to tell you. Okay, thanks, Eric,

1549
02:00:04.159 --> 02:00:13.760
Steve, what's happening? Yes,
yeah, this is Tom, Yeah,

1550
02:00:13.840 --> 02:00:15.880
yeah, this is a Tom Martinez. Joe. We're talking about consumer problems,

1551
02:00:16.039 --> 02:00:19.880
and I see you have something with
a refrigerator. Oh, yes,

1552
02:00:20.720 --> 02:00:24.800
I expect I wasn't expecting to be
on the air. So what's happening.

1553
02:00:25.840 --> 02:00:30.159
Well, I had a little power
glitch here about five weeks ago with my

1554
02:00:30.199 --> 02:00:34.119
refrigerator, and since then it has
not been able to be When you say,

1555
02:00:34.520 --> 02:00:39.760
can you describe what you mean by
a power glitch? Uh, it

1556
02:00:39.840 --> 02:00:42.880
was just a power surge or a
spike. When we had that heavy snow

1557
02:00:42.920 --> 02:00:46.319
of what five weeks ago, we
lost power for you know, seconds,

1558
02:00:46.319 --> 02:00:53.079
and then after that the refrigerator never
worked right. Correct, it's a it

1559
02:00:54.199 --> 02:00:59.039
will only get as cold as about
forty eight degrees. What kind does it

1560
02:00:59.199 --> 02:01:02.560
get it? What kind does it
be? A ge monogram? I can't

1561
02:01:02.600 --> 02:01:08.880
think of anything with a power thing
that would have done that. Now,

1562
02:01:09.079 --> 02:01:15.359
a surge maybe it was it a
blink or was it a surge? Well,

1563
02:01:15.399 --> 02:01:19.279
I guess it was a blink and
it just it just flashed on and

1564
02:01:19.359 --> 02:01:24.800
came back on moments later. And
did you okay, did it really?

1565
02:01:25.359 --> 02:01:28.920
I'm going to start with the most
obvious. When the power goes off,

1566
02:01:28.960 --> 02:01:32.680
did you reset your your temperatures?
Because that's a computer and there you got

1567
02:01:32.720 --> 02:01:36.119
to reset it. I mean,
what I mean is did the temperatures go

1568
02:01:36.239 --> 02:01:44.199
back to default? Nope, they
were still showing what thirty four degrees or

1569
02:01:44.199 --> 02:01:46.880
something like that. Whatever you want
to show, you show in the refrigerator,

1570
02:01:46.920 --> 02:01:50.520
and then you have the freezing in
the freezer and those are both set

1571
02:01:50.640 --> 02:01:57.800
still right correct. However, the
refrigerator part will only get as cold as

1572
02:01:58.119 --> 02:02:00.720
forty eight degrees. Yeah, there's
something. It sounds like your compressor more

1573
02:02:00.760 --> 02:02:05.920
than any but but it could be
really simple though, like do you know

1574
02:02:05.960 --> 02:02:12.920
if there's any internal fu There are
internal fuses, but they're not resetable by

1575
02:02:12.960 --> 02:02:15.640
you. Have you ever called Have
you called anyone to come look at it?

1576
02:02:17.239 --> 02:02:21.760
Yes? I called ge Monogram,
uh directly because my Yeah, good

1577
02:02:21.840 --> 02:02:26.680
luck with that. What did they
They're they're terrible. What did they tell

1578
02:02:26.720 --> 02:02:31.760
you? Well, they were actually
very accommodating the Sorry. Yeah, they

1579
02:02:31.800 --> 02:02:38.239
said to contact Sears Home Services.
Okay, so where did it all end

1580
02:02:38.319 --> 02:02:41.760
up? Did you get someone to
look at it? Yeah, they came

1581
02:02:41.800 --> 02:02:45.000
out a couple of weeks ago.
They looked at it and they said it

1582
02:02:45.000 --> 02:02:50.840
needs a compressor and an evaporator.
How old is the refrigerator. It's a

1583
02:02:50.880 --> 02:02:56.239
little over ten years and so the
compressor. The field units are still covered

1584
02:02:56.239 --> 02:03:00.319
by the warranty. Oh wait,
so you can get this done under warranty.

1585
02:03:00.920 --> 02:03:05.520
Yes. So I contacted the ge
Monogram and they sent me the compressor

1586
02:03:05.560 --> 02:03:12.319
and evaporator and everything was going smooth. That's amazing to wait, that's amazing

1587
02:03:12.359 --> 02:03:15.960
to me. Go ahead then what? Oh? Okay? Uh? So

1588
02:03:15.079 --> 02:03:21.319
then we had I try to schedule
again for Sears Home Services to come out.

1589
02:03:21.479 --> 02:03:25.960
And do they cover the installation as
well, Steve? Or just the

1590
02:03:26.000 --> 02:03:30.279
part? No? Just the part? All right? Labor's labor was five

1591
02:03:30.319 --> 02:03:33.880
big dollars? Uh did you pay
that five hundred? Yeah? I did?

1592
02:03:34.000 --> 02:03:40.520
Yees to what to Sears? Yes, the Sears Home Services? Yes,

1593
02:03:40.560 --> 02:03:45.039
correct, My god, you should
have never ever ever done that.

1594
02:03:45.359 --> 02:03:48.159
So is it working? Is it
working? Uh? No, Well they

1595
02:03:48.159 --> 02:03:53.319
have not been back out to install
they ever. Wait wait wait wait,

1596
02:03:53.399 --> 02:03:59.279
you said you paid for it.
You paid in advance for installation? Correct?

1597
02:03:59.359 --> 02:04:01.399
Yeah, well hold on, what
are you talking about? You?

1598
02:04:01.439 --> 02:04:09.079
Who'd you pay in advance for installation? Sears Home Services? They said it

1599
02:04:09.119 --> 02:04:13.079
was one hundred and nineteen dollars for
the diagnosis. Yeah, but hold on

1600
02:04:13.720 --> 02:04:15.359
here here's what I want to know, Steve. You got the part sitting

1601
02:04:15.439 --> 02:04:19.760
at your house right? Correct?
Can you get your money back if you

1602
02:04:19.840 --> 02:04:24.760
cancel installation? Of course you can. There's no reason they should keep your

1603
02:04:24.800 --> 02:04:30.079
money. Get your money back.
That's the issue. I can't get a

1604
02:04:30.119 --> 02:04:33.880
hold of Sears Home Services. Where
did you put Did you put it on

1605
02:04:33.960 --> 02:04:39.680
a credit card? I did?
Yes? All right, do me a

1606
02:04:39.680 --> 02:04:44.479
favor. Can test the charge you
paid for something you did not get,

1607
02:04:44.800 --> 02:04:49.279
which is installation. Can test the
charge. Get rid of city. You

1608
02:04:49.399 --> 02:04:56.359
do not want these clowns coming from
Seers to install it? Never? Okay,

1609
02:04:56.479 --> 02:05:00.159
never. Now I'm going to give
you the name of someone to install

1610
02:05:00.439 --> 02:05:04.079
you ready, Oh, you write
this down. And this is an independent

1611
02:05:04.119 --> 02:05:11.439
guy from Russia. He is the
best service tech you'll ever get, and

1612
02:05:11.520 --> 02:05:15.640
he works directly with homeowners. He
even comes out on Sundays. I'm telling

1613
02:05:15.680 --> 02:05:18.800
you he's not on the referral list. He should be. I asked Mark

1614
02:05:18.840 --> 02:05:23.119
to get him on, but maybe
Mark hasn't gotten around to it. His

1615
02:05:23.239 --> 02:05:31.600
name is Roma. Okay, here's
his number seven to zero nine eight zero

1616
02:05:33.399 --> 02:05:39.039
four six zero nine. Now here's
what I want you to do. I

1617
02:05:39.079 --> 02:05:42.159
want you to tell him you went
to this guy's house one time on a

1618
02:05:42.239 --> 02:05:46.760
Sunday, and you did such great
work that he told me I should call

1619
02:05:46.800 --> 02:05:51.079
you. I need this part installed. Blah blah blah. What you might

1620
02:05:51.159 --> 02:05:56.199
want to what you might find out
from Roma, because he's so honest,

1621
02:05:56.600 --> 02:05:59.600
is you probably didn't need the compressor. Because I'm just going to say a

1622
02:05:59.600 --> 02:06:02.800
little note here. You got it
free. It doesn't matter. Put it

1623
02:06:02.840 --> 02:06:06.359
in. Put it in. You
got it free. It's going to extend,

1624
02:06:06.399 --> 02:06:10.319
it's going to double the life of
that refrigerator. But you didn't need

1625
02:06:10.359 --> 02:06:13.760
it. You didn't need it.
You needed the starter. You did not

1626
02:06:13.960 --> 02:06:17.960
need the entire compressor for one blink
of power. Okay, but you call

1627
02:06:18.079 --> 02:06:20.720
that guy. Did I give you
that number? I'm sorry my age,

1628
02:06:20.760 --> 02:06:26.720
Yes I did. Okay, so
you take it and you call that guy

1629
02:06:27.359 --> 02:06:30.239
and you will be thanking me for
it. But get your money back even

1630
02:06:30.239 --> 02:06:33.840
if you can't get a hold of
them. Stop payment. There's no reason

1631
02:06:33.880 --> 02:06:38.319

Martino here three O three seven one three

1639
02:07:21.800 --> 02:07:27.760
talk three O three seven one three
eight two five five. Welcome to the

1640
02:07:27.840 --> 02:07:30.439
show. We are here to help
you any way we can to solve problems,

1641
02:07:30.439 --> 02:07:33.079
as questions, to take complaints.
We're winding up an hour, but

1642
02:07:33.119 --> 02:07:36.439
you can still get a call in. And by the way, we were

1643
02:07:36.479 --> 02:07:41.399
talking about cars and convenience and all
of that. Somebody wants to know about

1644
02:07:42.079 --> 02:07:46.399
that Nissan car. He asked about
the Uh there's an Ultima that's alt Ultima

1645
02:07:46.800 --> 02:07:53.159
and they're really handsome cars. Now, as far as Toyota, do they

1646
02:07:53.199 --> 02:07:56.119
have a version of this that would
not a version but a competitor. What

1647
02:07:56.119 --> 02:08:01.159
would a competitor be in that class
camer or you know one of those.

1648
02:08:01.000 --> 02:08:07.640
Now, how do they compare to
Hyundaidai? They're very comparable. Has done

1649
02:08:07.680 --> 02:08:11.800
a lot over the year when they
first came out, they were a big

1650
02:08:11.880 --> 02:08:13.199
lighter, you know, when you
run out of gas, throw it away.

1651
02:08:13.520 --> 02:08:16.199
So but you know, over the
years they've done a lot to improve

1652
02:08:16.199 --> 02:08:20.640
that company, and they're actually a
really quality car anymore, you agree,

1653
02:08:22.039 --> 02:08:28.520
Yeah, they're the warranties on is
looking at warranties unbeatable. Cona's a nice

1654
02:08:28.600 --> 02:08:33.560
vehicle, a nice vehicle. Uh. They have all different sizes and shapes

1655
02:08:33.600 --> 02:08:37.239
of cars. Now, is Kia
comparable? Are they now? I heard

1656
02:08:37.279 --> 02:08:39.199
their brothers. Did they get back
together? Are they separate? I mean

1657
02:08:39.279 --> 02:08:45.439
they're they're identical companies for warranties and
all of that, but very very similar.

1658
02:08:45.680 --> 02:08:48.600
So quality wise, very similar as
well, right, I believe.

1659
02:08:48.640 --> 02:08:50.640
So I would say Honday is probably
a little bit step above them. I

1660
02:08:50.680 --> 02:08:54.520
mean, they do share a lot
of technology. But if I was to

1661
02:08:54.520 --> 02:08:56.079
put them side by side, a
Kira a Hyundai, I would definitely take

1662
02:08:56.079 --> 02:09:01.239
the Hyundai really okay, And then
we'll say, and there's one more text

1663
02:09:01.960 --> 02:09:11.640
about some men are not looking for
quality. They're looking like, you know,

1664
02:09:11.960 --> 02:09:16.079
I think status is what they have
in mind. I mean some people

1665
02:09:16.279 --> 02:09:20.560
like That's why of course the range
Rover. Somehow people got to know that

1666
02:09:20.760 --> 02:09:24.600
as some kind of status and they
are good looking. Nobody can deny that.

1667
02:09:24.199 --> 02:09:31.319
So as far as the there was
one other question they had about the

1668
02:09:31.399 --> 02:09:37.119
performance cars. Are there any that
Are there any that's that have a reputation

1669
02:09:37.199 --> 02:09:45.319
they shouldn't for dependability, like when
you're when you're going to look, are

1670
02:09:45.359 --> 02:09:50.199
there any that are overrated? I
guess is what we're talking about. Well,

1671
02:09:50.279 --> 02:09:54.319
I I just have to keep going
back to the European and while they're

1672
02:09:54.359 --> 02:09:56.279
new, they're great, but once
you hit that sixty k mark, they

1673
02:09:56.319 --> 02:10:01.439
start going downhill and those they're expensive, very expensive. Yeah, all right,

1674
02:10:01.600 --> 02:10:05.800
three oh three seven one three talk
and then what about the So it's

1675
02:10:05.840 --> 02:10:11.079
not just the cost that we're talking
about of the repairs and all of that,

1676
02:10:11.399 --> 02:10:18.359
but we're also talking about basically the
uh, the longevity itself. I

1677
02:10:18.880 --> 02:10:24.039
mean the fact that they even break
down like that, not breakdown but leek,

1678
02:10:24.159 --> 02:10:26.319
Well, you're not gonna have catastrophics
failures. They're small, but they're

1679
02:10:26.319 --> 02:10:30.960
theirs, but they're oh nicol,
but two and three thousand at a time.

1680
02:10:31.159 --> 02:10:35.960
Lupey, what's going on with you? Loupei? I'm calling Tom to

1681
02:10:35.079 --> 02:10:43.920
ask about my twenty seven tu son. You're twenty twenty seventeen. Yeah,

1682
02:10:43.960 --> 02:10:48.680
okay, your Yndai Tucson. What
about it? Yeah, it started knocking?

1683
02:10:48.520 --> 02:10:52.840
Really Now have you had regular Have
you had all the regular service done

1684
02:10:52.880 --> 02:10:58.920
and oil changes? Uh? Yes, I have had? Have you changed

1685
02:11:00.520 --> 02:11:05.520
gasoline at all? Oh? Why
would knocking? That's not a good How

1686
02:11:05.560 --> 02:11:11.119
many miles are on it? It
has ninety nine? Thou? I would

1687
02:11:11.159 --> 02:11:15.279
check with Hyundai there's still they have
all kinds of different recalls for their motors.

1688
02:11:15.560 --> 02:11:18.239
What I know, I did because
I read about it and I get

1689
02:11:18.359 --> 02:11:24.239
what year? Now? What causes
knocking to begin with? What could it

1690
02:11:24.279 --> 02:11:26.920
be? Is it a deep knocker? Is that a tick? When you

1691
02:11:26.960 --> 02:11:30.800
say knocking? Can you really hear
it? Knocking? Cock? Clock,

1692
02:11:30.800 --> 02:11:33.319
clock, clock, cluck, dock, cluck cluck inside it's it's yes.

1693
02:11:33.840 --> 02:11:39.399
Can you feel it or you just
hear it? I hear it. Yeah,

1694
02:11:39.399 --> 02:11:43.279
it's unfortunately a common failure. Said, it's probably the rod bearing,

1695
02:11:43.399 --> 02:11:46.960
that's what the reason. Now that's
a major engine. Yes, the motors

1696
02:11:46.000 --> 02:11:50.680
done? Yeah, oh my god, I mean why no warranty on that

1697
02:11:50.720 --> 02:11:56.000
one or no recall? Well it's
a ten year warranty right on a two

1698
02:11:56.000 --> 02:11:58.520
thousand. Yeah, but they did
have they'd extended some past the ten years,

1699
02:11:58.800 --> 02:12:03.760
but hers wouldn't be ten years at
twenty seventeen, so you're still you

1700
02:12:03.760 --> 02:12:09.920
know, you're still under warranty for
that. Because I'm a second owner,

1701
02:12:09.000 --> 02:12:13.439
I'm not Okay, wait a minute, so you didn't. Yeah, they

1702
02:12:13.560 --> 02:12:20.159
change it for the if it's a
certified there's some rule on extending that warranty.

1703
02:12:20.239 --> 02:12:22.920
That's why I always refer to the
dealer because they keep changing it.

1704
02:12:24.319 --> 02:12:28.319
Anyway, what is your question for
us slope? What is your question?

1705
02:12:28.960 --> 02:12:31.960
Well, it was I've taken it
to two mechanics and they did they say

1706
02:12:33.000 --> 02:12:37.520
your engines toast. Well one of
them did, and the other one said,

1707
02:12:37.600 --> 02:12:39.680
well, if we fix it,
you'll probably have the same problem again

1708
02:12:39.800 --> 02:12:46.199
because it's that engine. Now,
that doesn't make sense because they would rebuild

1709
02:12:46.239 --> 02:12:50.119
it. Yeah, that doesn't make
any sense. Why don't you take it

1710
02:12:50.159 --> 02:12:54.640
over to keb Where are you located? I'm in Broomfield. Yeah, I

1730
02:14:24.560 --> 02:14:28.840
three O three seven one three talk. Let's go right back to Dennis.

1731
02:14:28.000 --> 02:14:31.880
Okay, Dennis, So what was
your question, sir? You wanted to

1732
02:14:31.960 --> 02:14:37.479
know about, uh Toyota a regular
Rev four versus the Toilota Hybrid. Yeah?

1733
02:14:37.520 --> 02:14:41.439
Which one would be the better buy? Because I'm looking to buy maybe

1734
02:14:41.560 --> 02:14:46.720
this year or next year. I
want to buy brand new, and is

1735
02:14:46.760 --> 02:14:50.119
the Highbred worth the extra money?
Guys? Guy, here's what I think.

1736
02:14:50.159 --> 02:14:54.399
Okay, but it's only my opinion, Dennis, I don't want two

1737
02:14:54.479 --> 02:14:56.920
systems. If I'm gonna get electric, I'll get electric. Otherwise I'm going

1738
02:14:58.000 --> 02:15:01.119
to stick with the gas because it's
very dependent. Well what do you guys

1739
02:15:01.159 --> 02:15:03.720
think? Yeah, same thing.
You know, you're buying a lot more

1740
02:15:03.760 --> 02:15:13.359
maintenance car for how long? Yeah? Yeah, that's Kevin. I've talked

1741
02:15:13.359 --> 02:15:16.920
to Kevin about it too. So
so what I mean, I just do

1742
02:15:16.079 --> 02:15:20.720
my basic driving around Denver. I
don't go out of state or much like

1743
02:15:20.119 --> 02:15:22.880
I would get I would get the
regular one and not pay the extra.

1744
02:15:22.960 --> 02:15:26.560
That's just me though. Well,
particularly if you're doing a lot of city

1745
02:15:26.640 --> 02:15:28.039
driving because you're not going to get
a lot of benefit out of that electric

1746
02:15:28.079 --> 02:15:31.560
side. Yeah. So anyway,
Matt, Matt, Matt, what you

1747
02:15:31.600 --> 02:15:37.159
have a question on the car shield? Yeah? What what do you recommend?

1748
02:15:37.199 --> 02:15:43.479
What? My My warranty just ran
out on my Chevy Silverado, So

1749
02:15:43.560 --> 02:15:46.079
what should I buy? Are they? Are they rip off? All right?

1750
02:15:46.119 --> 02:15:50.079
Listen, That's the only time,
the only time I would consider a

1751
02:15:50.119 --> 02:15:52.880
warranty is when your factory one ran
out, and I would go right back

1752
02:15:52.920 --> 02:15:56.199
to Chevy or General Motors for it. That's what I would do as an

1753
02:15:56.239 --> 02:16:01.840
actual extended warranty car shield. I
personally don't like these warranties that are independent,

1754
02:16:01.880 --> 02:16:05.880
but guys Coach shield is probably the
worst one out there. Are the

1755
02:16:05.880 --> 02:16:09.680
the worst one out there. Matt. They're saying I would go to the

1756
02:16:09.680 --> 02:16:13.159
factory. Now that you actually can
use it, now's the time to buy

1757
02:16:13.159 --> 02:16:18.079
it if you want it. I'm
