The Out Of Touch "Car Guy"
• https://www.ericpetersautos.comJay Leno used to be funny – and now he is again. Just unintentionally.
"There is almost no reason to have a gas car," he announced on CNBC the other day. "I have a Tesla. I've had it for three years. I've never done anything. There's no fluids to change. There's nothing."
Nothing?
Jay – who styles himself a Car Guy – ought to know better. Assuming he knows anything about cars.
No fluids to change?
Well, no oil/transmission fluid to change.
How about brake fluid? Electric cars have this fluid, just like any other car – and it does need to be changed. It's a good idea to change it about once every . . . three years. Tesla recommends a check every two.
Jay apparently didn't read the manual.
There is also coolant. Whoops!
And of course, electric cars have tires and brake pads and other wear items that . . . wear out. Jay – like everyone else who drives any car – will eventually have to do not only something but several things.
