New favorite utube car review guy

Chad Hair...tests cars "real world", and in a straight forward manner. Love that he also tests headlights, something few do. Here he is testing the Lexus hot dog...

(edit) Finally figured it out...if "Uncle" Tom Mcahill, who wrote car tests for Mechanics Illustrated were doing youtube tests today? He'd probably do 'em like this.

Most reviewers want to test how well they can drift a car. 100% total stupid tests.

Anyone that tests a car in real world conditions will be refreshing.

Shot by a regular guy with an iPhone. Good for him but I lost interest pretty quickly.

Some want strictly entertaining car reviews...I don't drive on tracks these days, so more interested in how a car works in the real world...you know, things like city traffic, 2 lane twsities, freeways, all of it. This guy delivers that with a wee bit of entertainment.
