My current car was well-reviewed when new but had a cosmically stupid timing chain design that screws over the second or third owner. But most reviewers are targeting new-car buyers.
Thinking about that made me wonder if there are channels/creators specializing in reviews of cars that have significant mileage on them. Looking at relatively recent cars and asking “how did this model actually hold up? What design flaws should second-hand buyers watch out for?”
RCR kind of ends up doing that sometimes, but it’s not really their specific focus.
Thanks!
I did it for a while. I did an Angry Video Game Nerd style review system, full of foul language and crude humor, but underneath the character was my actual experiences from being a car dealer and mechanic. I told people about the known problems and what to look for in the average craigslist cars. I did OK for a while, but, a lot of people get pissy when you crap on their favorite car and youtube wrecked me when they went family friendly, so I pretty much gave it up.
