[QUOTE="offroadkarter, post: 15483567, member: 79484"] I don't necessarily hate them for making money off youtube simply because I understand how ad revenue works. Its more of the fact that most of them are absolute ****ing idiots and I don't understand how people cling to every video they make. Ever watch vehiclevirgins? The kid had a e39 m5 through college and is now on his second lamborghini as well as daily driving a brand new S550. He's put out videos before saying he made all his money in investments when in reality he has a cushy job at his dads company. The video that made me have less than zero respect for him was the video where he took his recently supercharged M5 to get retuned. After it was reflashed he said "I think I can see the supercharger spinning faster." This is not the kind of person anyone should be listening to for car advice! Don't believe me? See for yourself [MEDIA=youtube]1SyzkEYEMiI[/MEDIA] Or another great one, subaruwrxfan, who I've seen over on Mustang6G. He begged his subscribers for some money on gofundme which he used as a down payment on an ecoboost mustang. A year later he felt like he deserved a GT so he traded it in on a 16 Guard GT Premium. 2 weeks later a motorcyclist ran into it and destroyed the entire drivers side of the car. This is a trend I've seen with a lot of these "self made" youtube people. They put out these videos about following your dreams and you can achieve wealth just like they did when most of them came from high income families already. Its shit, pure shit. And don't get me started on all these buzzfeed style "10 things I hate about my six figure exotic car, you won't believe # 7!" Videos I see all of them do. Or when video thumbnails have emoji's slapped in there, talk about condescending to appeal to millennials. So yes, I might be 25 but I'll agree with the angry old men that a majority of young car "enthusiasts" these days are ****ing retarded. Probably because they're learning it from these idiots on youtube who vlog about cars all day long and 60% of the screen is a close up of their face. As far as the young generation in general, social experiences I've had have led me to stay away from them for the most part.
