VIDEO: Scotty Kilmer calls out Stellantis' crappy cars

Agent 6 thinks Scotty Kilmer does the best vlog in America on cars and all the stuff that car guys love. He's been a mechanic for 56 years and talks about cars straight from the shoulder, without doing infomercials for any particular product or service. 

A couple of days ago, prompted by Stellantis' announcement that it's ending the Jeep and Ram lines, and firing 1000s of workers, Mr Kilmer threw a ton of shade on Jeep and Ram and the whole Stellantis line. 

Here's Scotty's rant, answering such questions as: Is Jeep reliable? Are Jeeps good cars? Is Ram worth it? Should I buy a Jeep? Are Jeeps worth the money? He also has something to say about the Harris-Biden runaway inflation and Stellantis' plan to move more jobs to Canada. 
 

Agent 6, who sent us the link to this video, sez: "Scotty is quite the raconteur! There is a recall/bulletin about parking electric Jeeps in a garage. DON’T! Don’t understand why there should be so many battery fires, and engineers not recognizing the potential for fire during the design process. All battery items seem to have the potential to burst into flames….from EV bikes, laptops, cellphones, and vehicles!"

Walt was a big Chrysler fan back in the hippy-dippy `60s. I owned cars with badges like Plymouth, Dodge, and Valiant, most of them with hyuge V8 engines. Where are those fine cars now? Not in my garage, that's for sure.

In conclusion, and by way of a trip down Memory Lane, here's a clipping from a brochure for the `62 Imperial line. Note the prices.
