I inspect used cars for a living mostly cars which are between 5 to 15 years old. Not always, but 90% of the time, if the tires are from a higher end brand such as Michelin or Bridgestone and they are in excellent shape then it means the rest of the car was well taken care of. If a car has worn out tires or the tires are cheap Chinese brands then almost always the rest of the car is neglected or not properly maintained as well. This has been my experience. That is why I first look at tires. It will tell me a lot about a used vehicle. It is extremely rare to see expensive tires in good shape on a vehicle which was not well maintained.

Yes, name brand, non-Chinese made tires are probably a solid indicator of a well cared for car. Hadn't thought of that one. I do look at the neighborhood, and if the owner has nice landscaping. People that pay for landscaping tend to take care of their cars, and be less likely to be lying or hiding an issue. Not 100% reliable, but just another indicator, like tire brand!

One owner, no accidents, Arizona, all records and non smoker! I have never had a problem with this formula. My 2010 Honda Crosstour is immaculate 😎

I was lucky enough to find a 10 year old one owner ES350 in immaculate condition with 70,000 miles. Best car purchase I’ve ever made! AMD you’re spot on, the interior still smells new to this day, I got the window sticker, the delivery certificate, dealer license plate frames, etc. I remember the engine was exactly the same inside as this Avalon when I peeked inside, which really stuck with me because I’ve rarely ever seen something like that. Owner did 5k mile oil changes and I’ve continued the love and care this car deserves.

I own a Toyota Previa ‘93 which I bought new. It is still with me and now with 275,000 miles. It still has the original paint on. Every time I bring it for service at a Toyota dealership, the service staff expresses how well this car was kept. It makes me feel good to be its proud original owner.

We bought a 2015 Avalon first owner car on your recommendation and love it. 42,000 miles and just like this one.

Here's a secondary thing to look for when searching for a used car. In addition to one owners I have found in my experience that retired veteran car owners do an outstanding job of taking pride in the ownership of their vehicle. If they ever do get rid of these vehicles they are often great finds.

The interior and engine bay were also very clean and the lady had just had the brakes and tires replaced by the dealer. The body had some bumps and bruises. I felt lucky to get it for 11K

I got a one owner 2000 Toyota Camry V6 XE one year ago with only 84,920 miles on it. I see it lasting me another couple 100,000 miles with how I take care of it.

This is a true disciplined owner. My kind of owner. I drive a 2013 Honda Accord and i do the same.

I am the original owner of a 2012 Camry Hybrid LE with 137 K miles. Regular oil changes and tire rotations (8 K miles); engine does not burn oil. Radiator fluid service (96 K miles), installed new Denso OEM spark plugs (105K miles) inverter coolant service (110 K miles), PSD fluid changes @ 90 K and 135 K miles; new tires installed @ 30K and 89 K miles. Small rear main oil seal leak detected @110 K miles. Stopped leak with AT-205 Reseal. Cleaned hybrid battery vent system @ 115 K miles but only modest dust present. Engine, exterior and interior cleaned regularly. Exterior treated with ceramic coating regularly. Car garaged at home and at work so it looks new. Dealer has wanted to buy this car and sell me another Toyota for the last four years. Maybe I will trade after another 10 years! The Car Care Nut and Scotty Kilmer are 100% correct. Take care of your Toyota and it will take care of you.

This shows pride of ownership. You said it right. What a beautiful car!

I had mentioned a few weeks ago that with AMD as my guide I intended to get 300,000 miles on my 2007 Lexus ES 350. About a week later I discovered the transmission was going out. At 184,000 miles I was kind of surprised, but I am the fifth owner of this vehicle, so I have no idea what previous owners did as far as transmission maintenance. I bought it at 40,000 miles, approximately 3 1/2 years ago and did have the transmission filter and fluid replaced when I bought it, and then a fluid replacement about 20,000 miles later. I have discovered a couple things about those Toyota transmissions: the initial ones in 2007 are famous for having some problems and I am amazed that I got 184,000 miles out of mine. A remanufactured transmission is going to cost over $5000 plus the cost of installation. Used transmissions vary in price, fortunately transmissions installed in vehicles from 2007 through May 2010 are the same and there is a quantity of them available. Most of them will set you back at least $2000 if not a little more. Interestingly, transmissions installed after June 2 of 2010 will be about 1/3 less at salvage yards, I don’t know why. I am spending $2400 for a 2010 transmission with 54,000 miles on it, and another $1200 for the installation. So, I’ll be spending $3600 to keep this 2007 Lexus on the road, but I still think it is well worth it. I paid $6500 for 3 1/2 years ago and the private party value today is still $6200. The car handles beautifully, we’ve kept it immaculate, and I’m still heading for that 300,000 mile mark!

My daughter had a '93 Accord as well. She left it to her husband when she bought another used car, but her husband did not follow instructions to check the oil at least once a week. He added oil when the warning light came on... which went very badly when the warning light failed. He ran it dry on the freeway until it seized. My daughter said she needed it to run for another six months so I patched it up. There was about an ounce of bronze in the pan, but I bought new standard size rod bearings and they all plastigaged in spec. I flushed the engine with junk oil and filled it with synthetic, instructing the husband not to give it more than 2/3 throttle and top speed 65 mph. It made it the required six months, and that was all anybody could ask for.

I bought it at the eight year mark with 75,000 miles. Put on a new set of tires and I've put 70,000 miles on it in the past three years, love this thing. Did all the 10 year maintenance stuff spark plugs fluid transmission water pump, Toyota replaced the brake booster and inverter under extended warranty programs for free, I intend to keep this thing for another 10 years if I can

I’m the original owner of a 2015 Mazda 3 GT hatchback. Dealer serviced and I have all of the records to prove it. Also have all of the original papers that I signed for it too. I’m keeping it for the next couple of years and than I plan on selling it for a PHEV. I also just did the first full brake replacement job in September/October. Original parts lasted 100,000 kms.

You are right on point about the pride of car ownership. Keeping my engine compartment clean of debris and grime is one of my OCD issues as well. I recently noticed power steering fluid below the reservoir and started looking for what was leaking, I couldn't figure it out. Your great video revealed the answer. I will be soon replacing the hose you mentioned soon so I can keep the engine bay clean again. You are a great mentor. God bless you.

Mine is a 2011 RAV4 bought new. I've got all the documents just like in the video. Oil change has been done religiously. Other stuff includes annual rust control, coolant, tranny, transfer case, diff fluids. So I can testify as a first owner.

Though it’s not a Toyota, I was able to purchase a one owner, single dealer serviced Subaru Forester. Like the example here, this car shows pride of ownership, and careful monitoring of the investment made. Thanks for this video!.

The brake pads were a little more worn than this one but everything else had been meticulously maintained.

Great man, great job & video. Thanks!

I bought a brand new 2005 Toyota Sienna (still a newbie DIY mechanic then). At 8 years the dealer told me I needed to replace the rack and pinion at $1,200 back then because the boots were leaking. I knew a Toyota Technician then who told me: Do you have a stain in your driveway due to the Power Steering leaking? Answer: NO. He told me... well then... you wait not only until you see the leaking stain, but until you find yourself having to top off the PS fluid every month. Then you change the Rack and Pinion. Well, I drove the van another 8 years until my son totaled it still with the original Rack and Pinion and no need to add fluid. BTW, replaced it on 2020 with one owner 1 year old 2019 Sienna. Great vehicles. There is something for saving money with used cars. My middle son (18 years old) just bought a 2013 Corolla (one owner) with 75k miles. We had to change both front axles (bought them Toyota Rebuilt - awesome value) and the rear beam (it was bent) from the junk yard. Now he is driving a great running vehicle that should last a long time if he takes care of it. Amd, thanks for your videos, God bless.

Love the enthusiasm, completely agree a one owner car especially one over 5 years old is hard to find. It doesn't have to be a collector car to be valued, unfortunately some owners are like it's only a Honda or a Toyota why should I baby it...their mistake/loss. Additionally many leased cars are treated no better than rental vehicles. Always have a knowledgeable consciences mechanic like AMD check a used vehicle prior to purchase, many cars may look good on the outside but have hidden collision damage behind exterior panels and were neglected mechanically.

Long story short...I had all the sales papers, manuals, all of my (DIY) maintenance records, everything, as well as the window sticker. I bought a new 2020 Camry LE 2.5 and hated to sell my beloved 2005 Camry LE at 218,000 miles. My 2005 was an "engineering marvel." ORIGINAL...water pump, thermostat, alternator, AC, (never re-charged), power steering pump, timing chain, wheel bearings, etc. In 15 years and 218,000 miles I replaced all four shocks/struts, front brakes twice, rear brakes once. This car never leaked "one drop of anything!" That is a complete story of "Toyota Quality." That's why I bought a new 2020. Amazing!!!

Wow AMD, that car looks great underneath for your part of the country!

I'm the same, I have all the original paperwork and well as the maintenance receipts...fully presentable.

I've been fortunate to find some very good one owner Toyotas through the years. I've also had some very excited people buy a car from me even if I wasn't the first owner as I document all of the service that I do and I clean them all up as if I bought it new. I did sell a 2007 Corolla Matrix 5MT back in 2011. It was my wife's and we sold it after owning it for 5 years, still regret do it, but my wife's hip was bothering her when pushing in the clutch. The first person that looked at it bought it and couldn't believe that it still looked brand new. Then he said the same thing about all of my other cars including my 1989 Supercharged MR2. 😍

This is very true. I bought my first new car a few years ago, 2021 4Runner. I have never been so meticulous about care and maintenance. Everything I do is with the intention to make it last forever. Even when it is no longer my daily, will keep to have a 4x4

Great video. I recently bought a 2011 Highlander from the original owner, and it has much in common with this one. Black as well, and the paint is still super clean as it was garaged as well. Also, it was super well maintained, quite pristine inside and out. It has 96k on it, and runs like a new car. I over paid for it but I'm ok with that. I had a 2010 Highlander that I drove for 10 years with no repairs at all. Just liquid, brake pads, and tires and that car was bomb proof. It got totaled, sadly, and this car I plan on driving for 10 years as well if possible.

I bought my 2009 XLE with 50000 miles on it from the first owner. The car was so clean and no one even used the back seat. It was about 18 months old and he drove it highway to North Dakota a lot hence the miles. Washed it regularly, took it in for service regularly. Had the Toyota service history on it. It's now 173K miles and my engine bay us as clean as the one in the video, same engine too. Replaced suspension parts, breaks, few wear and tear items but it's still a beast of a car. No rust anywhere on or under it and no leaks.

I bought a 1 owner 2017 Corolla from a dealership a little less than a year ago. Great decision. It drives great and is very clean with low mileage. About 3 weeks ago, I bought a 2014 GX460 which was a 4 owner car. While the Lexus dealer did a great job repairing it and the most recent owner had maintained it well, you can tell that it had been through 4 owners. It’s a truck and the mileage isn’t too high for 4 owners so I’m not too concerned about it.

I bought a 2002 Chevy Camaro in 2014 from its original owner. It had only 15,000 miles. It still had its original tires on it (from Arizona). I paid only 1/3 for it what the original buyer paid for it. After 10 years, I have had to make a few repairs that I hoped to avoid, but I'm not disappointed in the purchase. It is a car that I can do most of the maintenance/repairs on myself, I can still get parts for it (even though it has been discontinued for 20 years), registration costs are low, insurance is low, biggest problem that I have for this car is TIRES. The car is reliable, efficient, fun to drive, relatively easy to work on, still looks good, easy to maintain. The unexpected repairs cost me about $1600, but I haven't made a car payment on this car for at least 3-4 years.

Thanks for the video stay safe👍👍

A great subject to talk about!

I have the original dealership inspection with 2 miles on it. 2013 Corolla with just under 70k miles. I love my little red horse.

I have a 2006 4Runner 185k miles, I have this ever since, I dont have any major problem no leaks I mean Zero leak, that's why I like Toyota.

Completely agree with you regarding one owners car. At one point I had 2 Hondas of the same age and the difference was like day and night. The one owner civic with way more miles on the clock was way better and solid than the one with 4 owners.

It’s not always about mileage why looking over the car you are thinking of buying is important. I see cars online for sale with lots of miles but it dose not scare me I just go look in person and see how well it has been maintained could get a cheap car in good condition but most see the mileage and skip over it.

Love your channel! I have given up on buying anything but good shape used Toyotas - even with more than 150,000 miles. If it has good tires (last 2 had Michelins- a great sign) For $1,000 I can generally get it right mechanically.

Thank you it so useful and informative

Great video!!

This guy is not only an expert, but he loves his job!

Great Work ADM 😎

I absolutely love my 2011 Toyota Avalon Limited. I have more miles on mine but it is still pristine.
