What's your favorite YouTube car channel and why?

Man I gotta say their are soo many great youtube car channels, but lately Throttle House has been knocking it out of the park. Their latest Muscle Car three way test/review video was outstanding and reminded me of prime Motortrend. Their quality, dynamic as a pair, knowledge, and outright entertainment is top notch. Which got me wondering, is there a better YouTube car channel? If so, what are y'all's favorite and why? The poll is a list of some of the best YouTube has to offer..

Can you change the poll to multiple choice? It's really hard to choose just one. I have several favorites, each one adding something different to the mix.

I like Alex on Auto for general new car reviews. Savagegeese does a great job of detailing how a car feels out on the road.

I watch a bunch of the other channels too. They're all pretty good, really.

I guess what I was going for is if you could only pick one what would it be? Your absolute favorite.

Ugh so many good ones, but I enjoy the brutal honesty of SavageGeese the most. Needs more Turbowski though....

Donut Media, The straightpipes, Throttle house, Raiti’s rides, Engineering explained, Chris Fix, Shmee150. Some of the content that these creators are providing for free to Youtube is absolutely priceless.

I really enjoy Chris fix. Redline Review for the Civic sport hatch did help with making my decision to buy a Civic

Redline Reviews, Raiti's Rides, Matt Maran, TFL, Everyday Driver etc. all do a decent job of giving general new car reviews. The reason I prefer Alex on Autos for that basic type of review is that he actually tests for 0-60 and braking distances and posts real world numbers. Not guesses like the other guys. I also like that he compares the car thoroughly with it's competitors. Some people may not like his "blah" style though. I prefer that to Matt Maran who sounds like he's having an orgasm every time goes WOT. :eek: Definitely prefer Alex to the Redline Reviews guy whining about this or that.

I used to watch a ton of the Straight Pipes, then I feel like they did a ton of SUV reviews in a row and got tired of them.

Lately I've been watching Throttle House, Raiti's Rides, or Donut Media, but I've been slacking on car videos lately.

Most of the listed ones are auto review channels but you mixed in some others that generally don't do reviews.

I Like Scotty Kilmer and Andie the Lab and many of the ones listed.

Some are detailed reviews that are great when you are ready to buy (Alex on Autos)
Others are just good entertainment but not much use in determining what to buy (ThrottleHouse and StraightPipes).

SavageGeese is probably my number one, although ThrottleHouse passed The StraightPipes with their fantastic video quality lately.

Redline Reviews is good but sometimes I feel like Sofyan is expecting cars to be sporty when they aren’t trying to be.
