 It may be a beautiful day in New York But it is not a beautiful day in my heart because this might be the end of the 2001 Ford Taurus boys. So earlier I started the car. I drove it down to the gas station and After I got gas the car wouldn't start it started stalling Thankfully the car started and I was able to drive it back home But what ended up happening was if I put the car in reverse the car would stall And now it's not starting at all so Let me show you guys what's going on here. So my car has been in the middle of the street like this for two days I've kind of been hoping someone's gonna hit it so I can get some insurance, but It was actually about three feet into my neighbor's driveway the other day and I had to take my mom's old car and Push it back forward. I had to use her car to push it forward and get it back in the spot It's in here now. Let me show you how it doesn't start wasn't starting the other day Yeah, this is what's happening. So it's turning over, but it's not starting The engine light was on Breaks are going on almost started there. So when I hit the gas it actually starts So if I hit the gas, but look as soon as I put it in reverse Reverse not to if I shift gears to drive So the car started, but I think you guys can hear it shaking like crazy Usually when I put it in reverse it stalls. It's working now So I had yeah in the engine lights on so I had to feed it gas So it might be a starter issue Or a heat sensor issue. I'm getting the mechanic to come look at it now, man I really smell some gas so there might even be a leak so Mobile mechanics coming to check out the car It's gonna be 75 to diagnose it and as much as I don't want to put another scent into this hunk of crap either way if it cost me a few hundred dollars to fix it, I'll still make more reselling the car and I've deemed my life worth more than a 2001 Ford Taurus so Regardless of whether we get this car working again or not I'm going to buy a new car and right now. I'm looking at a bunch of Toyota Tundras around 1520k More than I've ever probably ten times more than I've ever spent on a car But at this point I think I have to finance something and we need to get the Taurus fixed because I have to you know Go drive around and look at these cars. So this mechanic should be here in about 20 minutes He's gonna diagnose We'll see what he has to say Since I smelled a lot of gas Think it might be the fuel pump But this guy's gonna take a look at it and see what it is So I'm wearing this nonsense mask because my parents believe in this nonsense So the guy's saying it's the engine computer and he just wants to replace the computer It's like a hundred fifty dollar part what I'm worried about is if that's not the problem And I put in 200 to this car and then It's another 200 to actually fix the issue. That's where I made a mistake, but So this mechanic said it was the engine computer and that needs to be replaced But that doesn't make any sense because the car starts when I feed a gas So I think it's the fuel pump But that job involves taking out the entire gas tank because on the four Taurus the fuel pump is inside the gas tank So I think we're just gonna look for another car And I'm looking at some pickup trucks right now. I think I said that earlier. So we'll go see dealership in Jersey and if there's anything we want to get Hopefully sooner than later because don't really have anything to drive right now Yeah, I mean with what's going on the only place I really go is the post office and the supermarket But whenever I need to do things like fill up some propane or whatever It's a little irritating, you know going down to Frankie's rearrange me once a week So I'm at the commercial truck dealership in New Jersey and we're taking a look at a 2005 Toyota tundra. This is the main model. I was thinking of getting So we're gonna take it for a drive only like 70,000 miles. I don't really know if I Want to go for a diesel engine if I want to go for something like this, but I've never driven a truck or a car this big before but I'm sure it'll be fine It's not like a commercial vehicle 66817. This is actually like the exact same mileage as my Taurus when it took a shit so Looks really nice clean inside AC was working Which is a an upgrade. We didn't have a see Old old stuff. No worry about Wi-Fi in here. They took it for a drive the Front left light is actually out when I went to check the lights. I don't know what this is for I guess I showed up on my truck My are genuine cars probably Engine looks really good. This is a 2005 car There's only a little bit of a little bit of rust on the metal. They got a bunch of trucks though So I'm gonna I'm gonna see what he has this thing is gigantic See this tundra is a big car But this thing the wheels are like look at that wheel and then This wheel must probably cost like what is this tire guys like $1,500. Yeah, that's a no for me and this diesel engine Something happens with this car You're probably out like $10,000 minimum for repair. Let's you know how to fix it yourself So that's not gonna fly so everything looked good, but I got a little sketchy So I went underneath and I double checked and It's all rusted out, you know, they paint it over it and there's a bit of rubber on it You know, it doesn't look that good. So they're a bit short on trucks the guys saying that they're not getting that Many from the auction anymore And as I said that Toyota has too much rust definitely not gonna get it. He's got a car from 1999 I'll show you guys. It's a little crazy, but all these trucks they they sprayed The rust underneath with some type of coating besides this one, which we'll look at now Ford It's only got 30,000 miles f 350 but The bottom has all the the black paint on it from rust. I just don't know enough about cars to Make a judgment call on this, but I'm assuming 1999 30,000 miles no one's bought it yet, but I shouldn't buy it either like this doesn't look bad, but like that And not good. It's got a hundred K on it and the interior Inside it looks better. I Mean they sprayed that too. They sprayed that Well, we'll take it for a drive. Might as well since I'm down here Maybe we're just gonna have to go back on craigslist and see what else is available. There was another Truck for sale that had a bit higher mileage and it looked okay. So maybe I'll call that guy up tomorrow unfortunately, we didn't end up getting a pickup truck and We're gonna go look at a couple other dealers over the next week or two I don't know when that's gonna happen, you know, I might not get a car for a week or two or three But it's gonna be sooner than later because I'm not gonna try to fix this Taurus You know as much as I'd like to you know, take the whole thing apart and try to fix it myself I don't have jack stands. I don't have a lot of tools I'd spend a hundred two hundred dollars and stuff just to start working on the car So thank you guys for joining me. You know how to support me down in the description. I'll see you guys for tomorrow's video
