My biggest pet peeve with alot of these car shows is that they show the process, and then skip right to finished, which taking the time to complain about issues they experienced, only to cut to the finished product anyways. Are there any car shows that actually go through the steps of teaching you how somethings done? Even just one thing per episode. I could sit there and watch tutorial after tutorial, but I don’t know what I don’t know. So watching someone else work on something and learning from them while also being entertained would be a great way to kill a Saturday. Any recommendations?

    I haven’t watched any of their long form content but actually stopped watching the short form reviews because I started noticing some mistakes in their videos about cars I actually knew something about… they make lots of generalizations about who buys a car new, why it sold well/poorly, what people initially used the car for, and so on. When those generalizations aren’t accurate, what’s the point of watching the rest of the video?

    I have no doubt that their long form content is much better researched, but if someone’s actually looking to learn something about a specific car (because really, that’s what RCR seems to be all about), I would look elsewhere. Probably a buyer’s guide or something very vehicle specific.
