As soon as these guys pick up weak sponsors like "keeps" or "manscapped" or silly mobile phone games, the content goes down hill and after 500,000 subs the same can be said.

When the subscriber counts are that high and sponsorships are lame, it's a job and there are people behind the camera doing all the analytics and schemes to get clicks. It's not just a guy in his garage filming and editing and creating the concepts anymore. I can tell you with 99% certainty that a majority of those cars given to him for free or at very substantial discounts and the direction of their videos is chosen by the analytics not by the guy in front of the camera. All this in the name of sponsors.

It's a business and that's how YouTubers operate it and I get that but the fakeness and how people fall for it all makes me cringe.

But I'm insecure and jealous so there's that too.
Yeah that's how it is nowadays. Cartrek series were actually good but sometimes these youtubers just ramble on too much just to have longer youtube video and more watchtime.

if you want to watch something decent then head over to "M539 Restorations" on youtube.
