Episode 255: What Are You Talking About?

On this week’s episode of Grease the Wheels, Uncle Jimmy starts off with an innocuous enough question and rapidly descends the rabbit hole of what people who don’t know about cars think about car repair. The question is, “how hard is it to change an engine?” Simple enough right? Not for these folks! There are plenty of jobs that are more mechanically difficult or arduous than changing an engine. Sometimes changing the entire engine is a completely preferable alternative to the massive amounts of intricate work that rebuilding one can require. However, these people are so far in the dark about it that seemingly all of their advice is stupid. It’s a fun one of ripping the normies!  Also Uncle Jimmy gets into aftermarket warranty companies and how adjusters could be rendered obsolete by video.  This episode is distributed by The Wrenching Network.
