Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than ~~MH27~~ MH17

Scotty has the most clickbait titles. "If you have a car you will REGRET this ONE SIMPLE TRICK and DESTROY YOUR ENGINE" (video is about winter octane stabilizers or something completely mundane)

Man he has truly become unwatchable as of late, it sucks. That said a lot of other car/hardware channels have lost the plot like AvE

Yeah they sort of follow the same trajectory. I do like DeMuro still but it really depends on the car he's reviewing for how interested I am. Leno is also decent and I prefer his car content to anything he did on late night or comedy-wise. He has that professionalism as a presenter and has so much money that he can just buy like a Merlin engine or have anything he wants to professionally restored. Really cool to see some of that stuff.

Doug has always been iffy for me. I think it's his voice that grates me. If I watch one video, my feed gets loaded up.

I'm not a huge fan of his voice and all that but he's super enthusiastic and if the car is genuinely interesting it's fun.
