I mean, he bought the truck because he really liked it. He was able to interview RJ because of his platform and he was reviewing the SUV.Don't care about MKBHD auto reviews as a car nut. It's also hard to take him seriously as a reviewer when he owns a Rivian, has special access to the CEO, and knows next to nothing about cars from watching his other reviews. Great product, but that's already known from countless other better reviewers.
He gets access because he has a larger subscriber base. He bought his vehicle fair and square last year unlike some other YTers with much smaller viewership numbers.Curious. How does he have special access? I thought the 45 minute interview in the Rivian was odd.
There is a LOT to objectively criticize or "not like" about "some other YTers". But IMO Rivian is who should be criticized for the both the "friends and family" program and any special price given. Purchased via what was a valid Rivian program at the time - fair and square.He gets access because he has a larger subscriber base. He bought his vehicle fair and square last year unlike some other YTers with much smaller viewership numbers.
This site has 11k members, not far behind his typical viewership.The dude loves Rivian. He evangelizes to millions of followers. For this, he receives pretty serious criticism on a board populated by Rivian enthusiasts. Criticism that will be read by dozens.
If I ever have an enemy, I hope it is @Tango45, or it is at least outsourced to him, because we all deserve the best in life....@OutofSpecKyle is dead to me. I have a well-nurtured hatred for him, his channel and everything he's ever touched. I feed it like a prize plant growing a record-breaking pumpkin. I'm petty, I know, but, as I see it, he took someone else's R1T. He is the clearest example of "cutting the line" I've ever heard of. He even got called out by other YT'ers. I don't care for his super-great coverage of how the vehicle performs in niche situations. I don't value his videos and honestly never have. I have a grudge and I will hold it until I die. I am not alone in this view and I am not immune to criticism for it. However, I'm not going to act like he's Voldemort and subtweet him. This is directed straight at him and is filled with the anger of a thousand suns. Insert picture of me in a hoodie with arms outstretched.
