Haha cheers. We can all use some good vibes when life gives you lemons. Or a trashed stolen vehicle with cigarette ash all over. Still smells. :(

The original goal of the channel was to be fairly vague, just covering anything engineering related (Here's a strange example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq5D4EQaJkE). My passion kind of took over, and I started getting pretty in-depth solely on automotive topics.

I work as a test engineer for a forklift company. Day to day is a bit of research, hands-on testing, and some data crunching/documentation. Sometimes a quick test can provide engineers with a great amount of useful info, so that's where I come in.

I think we can all agree, Nickelback Promos are what everyone wants to see.

Well, one thing some people don't realize (though likely everyone here is better informed) is that ads are targeted to the viewer, not necessarily the channel itself (though this can happen to). Google will do a much better job of showing you things you want to see (and buy) then say an automotive sponsor. If I had my way, I'd live off of donations, and get rid of the ads, but I don't believe that would work.

I'd probably own a race track, and do tests and comparison with today's vehicles, and also test different items and show whether or not they do what the claim to do. Ex: tire testing - which tires stop the fastest, hold the most lateral g's, have the lowest rolling resistance, last the longest, etc.. But with everything, not just tires. If someone wants to donate a couple billion to make this a reality, I'm in.
