Back in the day, an "Italian tune-up" meant driving at high RPM for a good long time. I'd say anyone using that term for a cold start-up is misusing the term, but they do use some terminology differently in the Southeast... I'm still laughing at "spark hoses" for spark plug wires, and some of his other terminology, so no worries.
Notice the Roadkill Challenger in the background at the RR shop ? Methinks there's a tie-in of some sort. I think they bought the Vanishing Paint Challenger from Freiburger or Ducich or MT, whomever it was that owned it.

The VP Challenger makes an appearance on one of his latest videos where he fixes that blue camaro for one of his boys. They take the challenger and camaro out near the end.
He over does his act on the Motortrend show I think but I still enjoy it just not as much as the YouTube. Pretty smart feller already making lots of money off of YouTube then getting to do the same thing with someone else's money who then pays him more money.

He over does his act on the Motortrend show I think but I still enjoy it just not as much as the YouTube. Agreed. The show seems forced, his youtube channel seems more genuine and off the cuff. They can certainly be time consuming to watch though, he has no problems uploading feature length films. lol

With the ones over an hour I truly think they hope you just walk away while its playing so all the ads fully play (they dont get paid when you skip them)
