Is YouTube oversaturated with automotive content?

When a YT video starts with a guy standing there, and the first thing that comes out of hi mouth is "waass up youtube", Im out of there.

This is the way I look at it, your title has match the content, when you (Tim) put up a video, its properly titled, you start a video and usually tell people who you are and what your going to talk about, and if its something specific that has to be addressed, you break it down to what the video is about, you usually do it within 30 seconds, sometime more, sometimes less, and I have a full scope on whats going on. the wassup guys have borrowed their friends vehicle for a couple of hours and try to make a video on something they have no clue on, and YT is full of these guys, Im in the market for a new PU, and yes I want a luxury trim, thats just the way it is and its my money, I love the faces of my kids when they see their inheritance eroding away, I followed you and a few other people who actually own the LZ0 Duramax, and I want one, amongst that during my research Ive drven an LZ0, Ive talked to actual owners in my area, Ive gotten the pro's and con's, and now Ive pretty well settled on what I want, but Im currently playing the price game, overstock should mean cheaper prices, if not I'll wait and play.

Thanks. You know the real reason why I do the intros that way? It is the old writer trick. It is my outline for the story. I can’t tell you how many times it simply helps me remember what I need to film. It is like, “oh yeah, I said X in the intro. I better remember to film that part!”

It's like my old speech instructor used to teach:

Intro - Tell them what you're gonna tell them.
Body - Tell them.
Summary- Tell them what you told them.
 
There's a lot of content but you will rise to the top if you keep doing what you're doing.
There is a LOT of fluff out there. I see countless videos of self-proclaimed guru's walking around dealership lots and just guffawing at window stickers, or parrotting what other outlets have already said, with very little attempts at journalism.

There are subscriptions that i've cancelled that were very appealing for the first three months and then I realized it was all just 'sky is falling' every day and nothing particularly interesting.

Thanks. I've started calling those sky is falling types - shock jocks. They are trying to shock you into watching their videos and get you riled up without providing any real information.
