Scotty Kilmer Likes 5th Gen T4R's

Scotty has been a staple in Houston for ages. My mother was even his tax accountant for years. And he's always been an odd one (you have to in order to have lived in Montrose for so long).

He can be annoying and most of his videos can be clickbaity or just GM/FCA bash sessions (not that I disagree), but he has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to diagnosing car issues.
 
i like the way he puts up a pic of a chevy dealer in the upper right corner and calls it a junk yard... and when he laughs he puts up a pic of a horse with a big smile.:becky:
 
Youtubers will do anything or say anything to garner viewership and subscriptions... its entertainment.. scotty is barely informative.. he's mostly controversial and dramatic because that's what draws viewers.. therefore his advice is invalid in the real world
 
Being a Youtube celebrity in his age is pretty desireable considering you get to do what you love to do and get a lot more money other than the pension. I'm jealous.

Lite-Brite Nation is always good fun. They should reach 100,000 subs soon. Scotty has 2,800,000. So...

Scotty didn't start with 2.8million, give them some time. I do like Scotty and Lite Brite though. I got rid of cable, waste of money now that you can get just about anything on the internet.

Seriously? You must be over 80 to not know who Scotty Kilmer is and barely know what Youtube is.

Like him or not; he is a force on the YT stage and in the car world. At 65 he's still putting out 2-3 videos a day when younger people a third his age (or younger) are struggling with 2 or 3 a week.

It's a brave new world friend. Please try to catch up.

Yeah....a real "force on the YT stage in the car world".

He has a little trick. On Saturday mornings he does a live streaming podcast kind of thing then he breaks that down into segments to make stand alone videos. It's actually quite genius in a way.

I do think he should get away from the click bait titles though. He doesn't need to do that IMHO.

He just released another one talking about how the newer Toyota's use a cheaper made rotor that frequently warps in the first couple years of ownership. He's right about that. Toyota needs to get their quality control under control. They built up a good reputation over many decades; screwing it up now over a few dollars would be really stupid on their part.

How is he in person? Is he just as animated or a bit more subtle with his gesturing? He actually had a segment in a tv show years ago so this YT thing isn't exactly new frontier for him.

He’s more calm in person, actually kind of laid back. I remember his segments on channel 11 locally. He has a long track record of trying to help people with their automotive issues.

Yep brake rotors and brake rotors single handedly prove Toyota is skimping [emoji1787]
