I watch most of his episodes. He seems pretty sincere to me, I doubt there is too much "fakery" going on (but I also wouldn't say there is necessarily none), and certainly not like on a produced television show.

But I also agree, there is probably only so much you can do keep it fresh. One of the struggles I can see for the YouTube car content producers is that a lot of them are putting out 2-3 or more 30+ minute long videos week after week after week. How many revivals and then driving it X number or miles can you do before it stops being interesting.
