Cheers John. Very informative and entertaining, as usual.
Great video as always John. Thank you!
Hi John,
I’m in the U.K. and am going to test drive a 1.6 turbo petrol plug in hybrids next week. The top of the range model here is named Ultimate. I’m really hoping I’m going to like the drive because I like the new design language of the Tucson. It is also 4x4 which is good for where I live because the long winters here can be very cold and icy so the added traction will come in handy.
Great and very interesting review. Thank you for all your hard work and commitment into helping us motoring folk make better, more informed decisions.
Greetings from Cumbria in the U.K.
stay safe and well.
We had a 2011 IX35 2lt turbo diesel, they called the Tucson that for a couple of years, it was a great car. Plenty of go, very comfortable and we actually took it places an AWD car should never have gone, we only sold it because it couldn't tow a large van. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.
Watching it all on an another Saturday.
Drove the petrol and wasn’t impressed. End up buying turbo diesel and wow. Chalk and cheese. Better fuel and so much faster. The torque is brilliant.
Recommend to spend extra and go diesel as heaps more power and better economy
The last car I had with actual flat-folding rear seats was a USDM '89 Ford Escort hatchback. They did it by hinging the seat bottom at the front, so it swung forwards against the lower back of the front seats and out of the way of the rear seat backs when they folded down. I'm not sure why this isn't implemented any more, but I could probably guess there's some sort of regulatory thing that precludes it making a comeback.
I think i've made you think about cape york. BTW got 85% on the first report, now working on the second. The mantra of "keep it simple stupid" hasn't been lost on me.
John. Film length vid !!!!!!! Lift music to start , beautiful. Exhaustive detail. Yup yup yup.
Hi John great review looking at buying a hyundai tucson elite in petrol as it will only be doing small trips to work and kids sport but after seeing all review they are saying go desial and help much appreciated thanks Mark
Hi John, thank you for this report, I bought a Tucson in late 2019 and I am very happy with it. I've been looking at this as our next step, and I've noticed something that concerns me about the rear design - indicator lights are down very low. This seems to be something being used more and more in vehicles and I feel it is not a good design. What are your thoughts on having indicator lights down low rather than where they have traditionally been, integrated with the tail/brake lights?
Could you do a video on how to set up a car? Where wing mirrors should be, seat setting (too close to wheel etc), anti slip settings (whether they should be on or off and for what circumstances).
I'm getting overwhelmed by so many gizmos.
Maybe you could also suggest what tech extras to avoid.
Id also be interested in your recommendations on towing setups including suspension airbags, sway bars, balancing systems, etc
Hi John, loved listening to this during my train rides in and out of work. Just wondering, the Skoda Karoq particularly the 140tsi sportline is there a shortage for that vehicle? On their website both the Kamiq and Kodiaq have options to add on extras etc however nothing for the Karoq. The sportline isn't even on the website. Btw do you rate it? Cheers mate.
It has a distinctive look about it
I'm digging the styling. I may harken to some others but is unique. Something hard to do with the regulatory powers that be telling the manufacturers the headlamp position and aerodynamic considerations for fuel economy.
Hey John, do you know when your 2021 Santa Fe review will release?
Thanks
Paul
"Tucson Tucson?"
"What's our vector, Victor?"
"Roger, Roger."
"Huh?"
On the point of 44:00 think of it this way; The engine is most efficent at around 4000rpm and less efficient when idiling, taking off, cruising or doing anything other than running at 4000rpm. The torque converter is also a point of loss. I believe (i.e. my opion is not based in concrete facts but I have it anyway) is that it would be most efficient to have an AC and a smallish battery (think range 10km) that is powered by the petrol engine running for 3 out of every 10 minutes.
Edited the press kit from "CAR" to SUV", calling it "not" car and then proceed to call it a "car" a short time later. Sorry John, couldn't resist :-) Love 99% of your content usually and content here is great. Like the conversational style as a nice change from scripted too. Not 'really' a big fan of near-2hrs of chat though - not bite-size enough for a lunch break at work so on balance I prefer the 20 min vids. Keep up the great work ol' C.
Ffarout, John - Marathon :) It was, a beautiful day. Missed the live stream. Any hoo -
All thrashed to bits in 102 minutes, with talkback... Nothing left to say? Tears & the orchestra playing?...
"Unknown, unknowns", did become immortal?
"Tomorrow's car today" - Chevy ad from the fin tail era? Late 1950's? Ironically, Today's car: Wait several months?
Windsor, Ontario? Manufacturing location of Ford V8 engines? Named after the factory?
You didn't say how gentlemen's clubs in sh'ville compare?
Who needs 'em anyway - Molls are the best, in Oz :)
Great review. Could you please let me know why there is no wireless Android Auto/Apple Car Play in the highlander. Also, do you think wireless capabilities is exist in the system but it's disabled due to licensing or something and Can we expect wireless capabilities in future with a software upgrade. Thanks.
I think it looks pretty good, would buy one.
Hi John, Has the fire recall and the problem that caused the fire recall, been sorted out in this vehicle.
TBH I just bought the new Hyundai Tucson base Model with N line and I am more than satisfied. Every one just talks about how NA engine is and all that. But really wanna ask how fast you can go. I already got 2 speeding fines on my Tuscon lol. What I am trying to say is you can it a by turbo and what not. But at the end of the day family guys like me drive their family around and the 2 Lt engine is more than sufficient. I live in and around city so tbh really doesn't matter if I drive 1.2 lt or 2 Lt or 1.6 Lt turbo ,they are all the same . Trust me go and drive and think what and why you need the bigger engine for and then go for it 😉
I wonder how the LCD Display will fare in direct sunlight and heat as there is no binnacle.
As a Coach Driver, we use tablets for ticketing and if left in the sun without a cover it warns Overheated and we have to wait for it cool down.
Hence we have a cover to slip over to prevent this.
Cyberpunk, retro wave, 80’s retro in general is popular at the moment. From video games, music, even to the humble hungry jacks yumbo. If your main market is gen Y then you will probably want to tap into the current trend. Looks like Hyundai is tapping into this trend a little.
Well John i have really enjoyed your blogs and especially this blog , I purchased a Hyundai kona elite for my wife last Xmas and I am kee on the Tuson elite diesel this year . I like the new look and am keen to buy , time is not important I can wait until September or October can you help me . I live in Sydney south .cheers mate from Rick
Thanks 🙏 for the great video 👍 I bought one ☝️ on Friday and will pick it up on Monday
The design...this is a bit of a thinker. I'm looking forward to seeing it in person but my initial impression after watching a few reviews is that a dozen people had a hand in designing the exterior. It's almost as if they all took a run-up at the clay shell and made their own cut. One person added a swoop, another a crease, then some dude just took a knife to it and so on. In the end, an overseeing eye ran across it and tried to cohesively bring it all together. Two of my brothers are looking at all the alternatives in this segment and they're taking a keen approach to the new Tucson.
Being a bit of a risk taker myself, I've suggested an oddball vehicle in the Alfa Stelvio (I personally think its gorgeous). I know it's a bit more expensive and there is the laden risk of after sales support and parts availability...but I have always approached life with a solid grounding in the understanding that the meaning of life is...death (I forget which smart cookie came up with that one). Hence, what the heck, just enjoy yourself and risks be damned!
Very interesting new vehicle. Can’t wait to see your review of the plug-in hybrid version when it arrives.
wont be coming to oz at this stage
They said not in oz
That cut out on the steering wheel looks like a holder for a phone, so the really good drivers can text, and look at their phones while driving without dropping it on the floor. 😆😆
Will most likely get the diesel highlander - any accessories worth getting at purchase time (mats, tow bar, side step) or sort them out afterwards?
John - I'm waiting for the new i30n dct which was supposed to have landed in Aus now (COVID delays I'd imagine) . Just wanted to see if you knew when this arrives at dealers in Australia? After looking at Mustangs the other day I'm on the fence now though too. Heart, Mustang. Head, i30n.
Mustang is not an ethical choice, in my opinion
John why do tow balls use spring washers ?
I am starting to get used to you segments on CZcams. How does one know when you are on CZcams live?
John, do you believe the Tucson will be released in a true N spec? Aka a 2L twin turbo, not N line.
There has been some specs for a Tucson N leaked on a Korean website apparently. However when the lady and I were at a Hyundai dealership on the weekend (coincidentally when this was streamed, sorry!) the GM was very confident that the hybrid models will be released next year and had ordered some already but he knew nothing whatsoever of a N model. He said that if there was one to be released it would need to be on a redeveloped chassis as the ‘22 Tucson ‘chassis would not be able to handle it’ and would be towards the end of next year, if at all.
Please, your thoughts.
I will stick with my AU wagon until Hyundia comes comes up with something as good.
Gold!!
You and me seem to be there only people who want a car based wagon
HAHA
I was a General Motors Tech & Service Manage , I changed jobs 10 years ago . We had many customers that owned Hyundai vehicles and loved them . I bought my first new Hyundai in 2011 and it was a great car . We have owned several since then and just purchased a 2021 Santa Fe . I often get asked why we own Hyundai vehicles when I was a GM guy for 30+ years . I usually reply "give it 5 seconds of thought " The latest gen Sonata is one ugly car & I'm not really fond of the 2021 Santa Fe appearance BUT dollar for dollar , it was a steal ! We also own a Kia , Nissan Frontier & a 1985 El Camino .
For a lot of drivers the blind spot is anything in front of them.
Just went and sat in one. Back seat is spacious for me at 6’2. Plenty of head and knee room behind a driver. The boot is great too!! Great call on the long wheel base. Interior seems nice but not sure about the touch screen for everything.
Yeah - plenty of space there.
@@AutoExpertJC Also what’s with no LED headlights until Highlander. Has Hyundai lost the plot?
Coming from a 2007 era car that only beeps from the reverse parking sensors, how annoying/intrusive are all the safety alerts during normal driving?
At least for my Renault, unobtrusive because I turned the volumes down to minimum and turned off the speed limit alert. Highly likely the Hyundai is not this customisable.
Hey John, on the subject of wing mirror adjustment, I have followed your advice Dicta Boelke style.
Since receiving my new Kia Sportage, I noticed I can't adjust the mirrors out far enough; my outlook must include my own car.
I think the magnification effect caused by increasing the mirror's field of view is a mild but increasing annoyance, point in case, having to recalibrate distance perception.
If it wasn't for blindspot monitoring, cameras, and proximity sensors, manoeuvring the car is somewhat trickier and less confidence inspiring.
I'd love to know your views on this.
YOU are IN your car. Mirrors need to cover BEYOND the sides of the car showing lanes on either side.
Great talk with in-depth info. Enjoy your no bullshit take on life so pls do many more. Next time I see you at Coles I'll buy you a beer/bourbon if you do!
in Romania (Europe) Tucson is sold only with 1.6 turbo petrol and there are hybrid versions (mild hybrid and normal hybrid) Gearbox are manual, DCT (with mild hybrid) and CVT (with normal hybrid)
Yes - specs vary around the world.
HEV and PHEV come with AT6, not CVT
is australia getting the new 2'5 litre engine
Wonder how many people screw up and knock it into reverse by accident why moving forward...
Legend 🤟😎
I would argue that the push button transmission will be absolutely dead easy to use off the bat if not acclimatise muscle memory to within an hour of driving the vehicle for any one with 2 brain cells to rub together.
The drive button has a protruding bump. One button above is neutral, two above is reverse. It’s as simple as that. It’s probably the easiest form of brail around.
And I’m not sure what high intensity driving someone is doing to not be able to remove their eyes from the road when going from forward to reversing. Some sort of high speed 180 manoeuvre from forward facing to reverse without breaking momentum?
I noticed in friend's BRZ today, it's navigation is run by TomTom.
Mazdas too, I think.
I own a 7 speed dct in as cerato GT.
"Don't inch uphill"? Great advice except how do you reverse a trailer into your driveway?
I can't reverse my trailer into the yard EVEN EMPTY without a smell of burnt dct clutch. And i am okay at reversing -- i used to reverse the trailer up a steep winding drive foot-off- clutch with a manual v6 magna ... but with the dct i don't get to choose foot-off- clutch. The computer insists on slipping the clutch and it is a truly horrific bit of engineering if you need to tow anything.
Not great in stop start uphill traffic either but just horrible for manoeuvring a trailer (or reversing slowly up the drive into a cluttered garage).
@1:00:00 John, you want to test drive a BMW 335d X-drive. 313PS, and 640Nm almost from tickover... I have one, it's a beast. 0-60 in just over 4.7s, and 170mph+ unrestricted. Cruises at 70mph running only about 1500rpm.... Effortless and potent at the same time.
Been told as of March 2023 there's a 9 month wait on the Tucson Hylander. Is what it is, be prepared to wait I guess.
The safety feature that automatically hits the emergency break every time you get close to a vehicle turning right in front of you is incredibly annoying... Having said that, I was pretty impressed with the Blindspot monitoring picking up a bicycle. As an avid biker myself, that was pretty cool (despite me already knowing the biker was there by being a cognizant driver).
The service centre can wind back the sensitivity of the brake feature.
Hi John, I've ordered a new Subaru outback touring through you're recommendation, got a great price, thanks. How would you compare the Tucson and the Outback?
Outback is bigger. And 50:50 AWD all the time.
Better safety features as well I guess. The new Tucson looks impressive though.
Your comments about Hydrogen fuels is brilliant, unfortunately our politicians have there heads where the sun don't shine.
Yeah John, it looks like someone has introduced a Ferrari La Ferrari for the cheap seats.
INTRODUCING...
THE NEW...
HYUNDAI TUCSON THE TUCSON!
I hate the touch screen for everything. I wish it had rotary knobs for volume and air con. More user friendly and less distracting than trying to put your finger on the right arrow.
Totally agree. More tactile too.
Do we have the Hyundai Nextra in Australia which apparently runs on hydrogen and what do you think?
It's called a 'Nexo'... And yeah - there are some here, mainly in Canberra.
@@AutoExpertJC Are they any good? Is there many filling stations for them? I live in Regional NSW so not sure if they would be suitable here, thanks for the reply.
@@AutoExpertJC looks like we have exactly one hydrogen filling station in Canberra, and it's a bit out of the way
@@AdamMansbridge ha ha, Thanks, since I'm in Glen Innes, I guess I won't be purchasing one...lol I have a 2019 Highlander purchased new in 2020 and wondering wether to upgrade to the 2022 model and while looking spotted the Nexo, Thanks Heaps
Cheers Di
Got a Highlander diesel N Line on the way
Same here, been told a few months wait though
New tech I really await is ARHUD
We got sick of waiting for this to arrive into Australia, purchased a cx5 gt turbo instead.
Was keen on seltos but not a 16+ week wait.
Was not a fan of the 1.6 turbo so there’s that.
Better start looking for a big brake kit, last time I looked, the CX5 front rotors are just too small. Kia and Hyundai suv's had 12 inch front rotors.
@@lonniebeal6032 have you even driven a cx5 turbo?
I test drove one of these this morning in "Tucson" guise. It really wasn't that compelling at the new +20% pricing. That 2.0 NA engine is impolite. For nearly $40k, we'd have been disappointed.
Has kia launched mohave ...passing through big Kia dealership. It was wearing those white outfits. I believe it might be kia nero...
I wonder why come Hyundai not offer diesel engine in 'Merca ?
World domination. well you have got Darth Vader backing you up, but then again, he was always losing those death stars...
I always struggle trying to get to the nearest church to repent after visiting the nearest gentlemans club using the car makers nav.
I put down a 1k deposit about 6 weeks ago for a turbo petrol highlander (new) Tucson. The other variants have been released this week, but there is a delay with this one, and they won't share why. Hyundai has confirmed the vehicle is in the country and passed customs. They tell me the delay is 30+ days (from now). I assume this model hasn't passed a local spec test. Should I be worried that the secrecy of the delay spells a problem going forward with the turbo petrol version?
I doubt it is a compliance issue. It's probably supply-related.
In the United States base trim levels are called stripper versions. Not because of who buys them; but because they are stripped of all comfort and convenience features
I am looking for a new car to replace the craptiva. Did look at this car, think it's overpriced, Sorento would be better option. But right now I'm looking at Subaru outback top trim. Still haven't decided though. The queen wants an SUV but I'm over them.
DCT is it dry or wet? Old one was dry.
the old 7sp dry dct will remain.
I don't know how it is in Australia; but in the United States, of all the times I have purchased a new car I've never left any kind of deposit of consequence. The only exception being is once in a while I would put a very small deposit on my credit card. And this was agreed to be refundable. And it would be in any case since my credit card would give me the money back if the deal didn't go through
Nowadays for example in Toyoya, they are asking for 2000usd in advance for shortage of they don't have the car yet. Shameless
@@columbiars never fun to be caught on the wrong side of supply and demand
One of my work colleagues is still waiting for a Prado since November last year.
Did I hear correctly that Scotty Kilmer commented in the video? I wouldn't expect anything else from him than a recommendation for Toyota.

It's a little Nissan murano
John,
Have you had any communication from Hyundai or Kia on the Wireless CarPlay issues (constant drop outs ) plaguing their MY21 base models with the 8” screen?
My daughter purchased an I30 on my advice/ previous experience, but the handling of this issue by Hyundai Australia has been nothing short of appalling.
The CarPlay function does not work and there is no wired option in the current 8” screen equiped models.
My estimate of 30% of I30’s in the last 7 months being base models means there are at least 3,500 upset new car owners in Australia. This does not include other Hyundai and Kia vehicles with the same screen.
How Hyundai Australia corporate has dropped the ball so badly on this many new car owners is unfathomable. Regular and structured communication to the owners of impacted new vehicles would have been a small cost in comparison to the legal sharks starting to circle re this issue.
There are owners claiming Hyundai has refunded / purchased back vehicles based on this issue and ACCC repair, replace or refund laws.
Any updates or influence on resolution would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

👍👍👍
I’d encourage you all to speak properly to John. He knows Kung Fu.
I remember when the TV remote was yell at the son (me) to "get up and change the channel"...
Couldn't buy one as I have no idea how to drive an automatic. I've never driven one and it's simply confusing
I am still waiting for My 2021 Stinger GT from Dec 2020 :(
OOF!
Futuristic styling inspired by Kryten's head from Red Dwarf. Not a bad thing but cannot be unseen.
So a groinal socket is needed as it sucks?
Harsh.
a 929 to the cape ,that would of been fun.
i heard on the grape vine trition will be a hybrid in a few years.
diesel be around for ever, trucks and trains. our main bulk hauling transport.
my experience with new diesels is my parents 3 prong suppository , twin turbo couple and my 2019 trition. i reckon they both go like a shower of shit and could rip electric hesus off the cross.
i had a 2003 hyundai elantra elete, was a bloody great till car. fun pocket rocket, sort of reminded me of my 80 Gemini . without the rwd fun.
i had the toby price trition , for me. no one else, i liked the package. it had all i wanted ,just added a towbar and roof racks. only time i ever had comments was at the beach camping around the fire. they ask is it nice ,i reply yes nice. i payed a heap extra for a stickker.
my opinion toyota dropped the ball when they dropped the 6 cylinder turbo diesel, it was the perfect big 4wd motor. why 100 series cruisers are still stupid prices.
dammit i want to visit Canada now
test drove a 2L highlander on sunday in sydney and here are some initial thoughts. very spacious internally, externally looks great. the 2L na engine and auto box is crap. 1.6t is 2-3 months away. the tech is great but you soon forget about it and focus on the driving experience (lack of in this car). felt the mazda cx5 gt turbo awd was a better car in this regard. cx5 refinement internally is better (though it has less space and tech isnt up there).
overall i can see where they're heading with the design but it lacks the refinement of other brands. for the same money i would just get the cx5 gt turbo.
the only saving grace for the tucson is if they introduce a full fruit N version with a 2.5l turbo with 8sp auto or wet dct.
John after seeing that
1- tucson engines seem weak
2- no red/blue/green colours? what is up with that? (hate white/black/silver/brown!!)
I'm now leaning towards a 162tsi tiguan. Now I seem to recall you in the past saying you were not a fan of these, but what was the reason? Is it just you don't like VW for ethical reasons, or are there actual concerns with the quality of their cars?
@Auto Expert John Cadogan I am wondering the same thing, what are the issues with the vw tiguan? I am deciding between that and the Tucson.
@shaddolf there is a red and blue option.
@@beedzoful if you look on the Hyundai site and configure one, there is no red offered in Australia right now.
And the "deep sea" is 5% blue, 95% black (I saw one in a showroom - I thought it was black until the dealer called it blue - I had to move my face 30cm from the car before I saw any blue.
@@shaddolf6662 oh fair enough about the deep sea. I think the red is coming when the N line option comes.
Colours aside since tiguan has a greeny/blue anyway, still wondering which one is overall the better car?
@@beedzoful that colour is exactly what excites me about the tiguan...I care more about colour than the design of a car!
I'm probably in the minority, it I'd take an inferior car in a colour I love over a better car in a colour I hate.
Is it possible to get a deal on new Tucson or will we be paying RRP till hype dies down?
The second bit
They keep saying "Futuristic design", does that mean that, like in the 50's, the futuristic design had big tail fins and lots of chrome?
It's a bullshit term obviously - mainly because the future is unknown.
What a shame the 1.6T only has 132kW. Even their regular Kona 1.6T has 146kW. WTF? After 2 Subies passed in on their latest Outback due to no 2.4T. I love the new Tucson look but will be waiting for the N.
I agree that more would be better. The 1.6T in cars has always been rated at about 150kW...
John, I'm yet to see any so called motoring journalists criticise Hyundai for sending Straya the world's leftovers in terms of the New Tuscan (Hyundai must give everyone good perks)...a 2L Highlander that is front wheel drive for $50k+ on-road, c'mon?!!! Why aren't we seeing at least the Hybrid like other markets, especially when the most sought after power train in the most popular SUV in Straya is a Hybrid (Rav4) as I understand it? That's just a big FU to the Australian market! Am I missing something why they wouldn't bring the Hybrid here?
2.0 litre, No. DSG, No. Diesel, No. If 2.5 with torque converter gearbox, Maybe.
aparently those shitty names are only in Australia.. In Greece we have 3 trims with the names Exclusive base trim, Premium medium trim, and Distinctive high trim.
As well as using solar or wind to power the production of "green" hydrogen, Australia has a immense availability of geothermal power. It is virtually untapped and almost zero interest from the marketing department in the federal government - otherwise known as our politicians. It is truly time to MALS.
The level of technical knowledge among ambient politicians is a fucking disgrace.
I got told in April 12 moths or more
The petrol on this thing is really lack lustre, go for the diesel.
MALSP. Make Australia Less S$&t Party. Ild vote for that.
John-- still grateful for all your clear minded humour, etc. Brilliant!! AND, great radio speaking style and voice! Here's my posit for a joke post that u could get from a moron in my own Tardistani Republic: " Jon!!! not preciating your anti-tardistan comments while u can't even get your camera image correct! Your image is inverted/reversed---as seen in fact that steering wheel is on rong side!" (not great comedy, but it's somethin')
To that fool who lives in a cold climate and doesn't see the need for heated seats; as someone who used to live in such a climate I can say you are out of your mind. Reminds me of the kind of guy who brags that he likes a simple car and doesn't mind manually inserting a key in the door lock, and then once inside reaching across the cabin to open the opposite door. Crazy
My sister just leased the latest Tucson on sale in the USA (2021?). She hates it. Its the 4-cylinder and has about as much power as a riding lawnmower. Shes frightened to drive it on the highway because it is almost too dangerous to merge with quickness on an entrance ramp. I rode shotgun and can see why. When you floor it, the transmission lunges down several gears but won't even engage and kick whatever it has in the pants. It just chokes on its own vomit and leaves you gimping the pedal around until you can find a gear it will accelerate in. Ill be shocked if she keeps this thing. Its so bad she wants her 2010 Ford Explorer back which was a POS in its own right. There's gutless and then there's this Tucson. Yeah the warranty is great, but she calls this thing her Flintstone car because it will only go as fat as your feet with push it.
Retardistan Tucson’s are made in the US (Alabama). Pretty much everything automotive made in America is built to a price and generally inferior. South Korean made Hyundai’s (like Australia gets) are comparatively pricey, but better made from better materials.
@@rotoehu9266 true story in Greece hyundai and kia considered top reliability cars. I have a friend that carries broken cars from the road to garages, for years now its his job, he told me kia and hyundai is a rare site for him. Alabama factory is a shithole that making cheap cars without the careness they deserve and ruin hyundai's good name.
Thanks John but let's get real, given government officials say we are about to go to war, for new car purchasers, an EV is only choice.
Australia only has 2-3 week on shore fuel storage and supply lines from Singapore are very easily interdicted. There is little we could do about it and extreme rationing would be needed so we have enough to fill up those gas guzzling F35s.
If you must have a 4wd but can't stand electric go for light hybrid or something like a Jimny and stock 80ltr+ of petrol.
Time to increase the strength of those meds, Jim - reality would like to re-engage.
@@AutoExpertJC Yes John, thanks for counselling, I keep hearing repetitive drumming sound and voices of guy called pezzallo, I hope the pills are going to help.
@@AutoExpertJC I’ve heard the fuel lines in EV’s are getting plugged by that new Pfizer hydrogen. Is this true?
First to say first!
Thank Allah for that.
