In 2019, he complained that car companies don’t take YouTube car reviews seriously. ”I average 1.1 million video views in a week, which is by far the most per video average of any car YouTuber,” he explained in a video. ”So, isn’t it in the best interest of General Motors to get me a car so it can get a lot of exposure?”
