A car mechanic urged to never buy a popular type of car: what's the deal
The car market is currently full of many models and types of cars. Thanks to this diversity, every buyer can find a vehicle that fully meets all their needs.
However, some cars that are distinguished mainly by their appearance have much more practical counterparts. That's why automotive YouTuber Scotty Kilmer urged drivers to refuse to buy one popular type of vehicle.
One of the most popular car enthusiasts on YouTube, who has been working as a mechanic for over 55 years, urged drivers not to buy SUVs, especially seven-seater ones. He said many other options offer better value for money in the long run.
"Usually, to get access to the third row, you pull a little lever that opens the aisle... The problem starts when you have to install something like a child car seat," the mechanic said.
Child car seats are something that is not uncommon to see in SUVs that are purchased mostly by large families. However, they cause a lot of inconvenience. It's not the end of the world, of course, but Kilmer notes that cars costing up to $80,000 are usually expected to have much more comfort.
The car mechanic also noted that despite the stylish look of SUVs, they lose value very quickly. Therefore, if you need a lot of space and a lot of luggage space, it is better to buy a minivan.
Most minivans are more affordable, reliable, and usually have more space for passengers and luggage than SUVs.
