SM sees his being built

Tony

A once in a lifetime experience..

Can't watch video. Says 'This Video Is Private'. ??

Saw it this morning when I posted it, now something about having to sign in to YT to watch.

He made a change or something with the video.

For whatever reason, the video from the plant was removed from his channel.

Maybe because his videos always seem to be some sort of click bait BS? I saw the video before it was down. Green 500, he got to do like 1 bolt, and drive it off the line. But the interesting thing is, one of his other videos before I stopped seeing videos from him, he was at a dealership signing papers, and he said he got a red one. I haven't seen anything from him, granted, I also don't go looking for his shit, but I didn't see anything from him really since that time, and now he has a green one, with a different configuration then what he made a whole video about previously? I dunno, maybe I'm being too skeptic, but something seems off.

I didn't feel the vid was CB. Here's my thoughts on it:

When I did a plant tour at Bowling Green to see the C6 Vettes being built the tour group was told there would be no pictures or videos of the manufacturing processes we would see. There was also the privacy issue with the workers. I know in certain instances they would allow pics/videos for journalistic articles and what not.

I have a feeling that Ford did not want any of the manufacturing processes shown on YT and when they got word of this video somehow they had a way to making SM take it down (hold his car ransom maybe?????)

Now the funny thing is (for those that didn't see this video) when it started SM says that he got contacted by a worker at the plant (that watches his channel) saying his car will be built and whether he wanted to come to the plant to see it go down the line, of course he said yes (who wouldn't if given the opportunity)?

So he shows up at Flat Rock assembly, met at reception by that worker (now we don't know who the person is AFA how high his chain of command is at the plant, whether he's some kind of manager or just a factory worker), he claims that they got clearance from higher ups that SM was able to be there to see his car built (there was no mention of whether he could video or not).

So SM gets all decked out in the safety stuff and off he goes escorted by said worker to the floor to see a LG GT500 going down the line, SM obviously filming the whole time.

Yes, he tightens a bolt on a door hinge, tightens wheel nuts on 1 corner of "his" car and gets to sit in it and start it for the first time. Then he rides shotgun to the dyno area and while the car is on the rollers and the driver is doing all sorts of system checks on the car he was filming all of that. The computers and diagnostic stuff that is plugged into each new Mustang system checks everything. The driver worker mentions it tests all the exhaust modes, calibrates throttle sensitivity, speaker and antenna reception and sat signals. It's like Skynet...……………….."plugged into everything, trusted to run it all"...………….

Some of that stuff is probably proprietary stuff on the manufacturing of Mustang and Ford probably didn't want it out there for the world to see.

So out of all that what am I saying...………………….he was invited as an owner to see his car built, that experience was just his to enjoy and probably was not to be filmed and shared. He may have been told about that and he dismissed it and filmed anyways OR that worker didn't have the authority to invite him there to see the car, management got wind of an outsider there who filmed the build process and got their panties all tied up in a wad and made him take down the video.

I'm done with my story.

You are correct.

Who is SM?

StangMode.

If it is true that worker didn't have the authority to bring him to the plant to see the build process he is in BIG TROUBLE!!!!!!!

Oh Stangmode! Of course.... how did I not know that....


Dafuq is Stangmode???

I just saw his most recent video where he says it had to do with the UAW and out of courtesy, SM pulled the clip. He did not say what the issue was, however.

I don't see the UAW having any say about what he filmed at the plant and he's DEFINITELY not going to come out and blame Ford for anything so he's just saying it's the UAW making him take down the video to save face for all involved.

Yeah I saw that new video too. Eh, who knows. Is what it is. Definitely cool to be able to go to the plant. I guess I'm just skeptical by nature of some people. When he gets his car and throws up content, good for him, then I'll believe it lol.

Union asked him to take down the video.

Maybe we can request them to convince him to take down the entire channel.

FFS, I still cringe every holiday pic. How an entire generation convinced themselves it's kool to record themselves is beyond me.

I would rather listen to SpeedPhenom all day than StangMode, I swear the dude ate too many paint chips as a kid
