    It's so insightful to hear the words of a seasoned mechanic point out what's been replaced and point out the history of each individual item inside the engine bay and on the rest of the truck...

    Wow you guys are in Chicago area. I am in the process of purchasing a truck and was wondering if I could swing by your shop to get it inspected

  • @NiAlfie
    @NiAlfie Před 3 lety +2

    I learnt a lot, however, as I'm not mechanically inclined, there's a lot that didn't make sense to me. For example, pointing out that certain parts appear to be recently swapped out means nothing to me, if you don't explain if and why it is or is not a good thing. Point out that you want to look at xyz because of abc and so forth.

      Dealers should allow you to have someone as a thrid party. If they say no. That's a telltale sign that they're hiding something in the trucks they attempt to sell.
