When they were doing the trip and posting videos, my wife and I thought, we do a lot of cool road trips too but we would never think to "produce" a video about ourselves. That's the difference between someone with a good business sense and, well, chumps, I suppose.
I know plenty of people w good business sense who don't make these types of infomercials about their lives. If I filmed every cool thing I ever do, a 5-day road trip would take a month.

I've also worked quite a bit in advertising/commercials at a high level and yes, this video has decent "production values" but zero creativity. It's a lame Pepsi ad w/o the Pepsi, (or Doritos/Velveeta/Masingil/whatever), just complete white bread corporate crap. Sorry.
