I watch all kinds of car videos and I look at each review for different things. I typically just skip through to what I want to know vs. watching the entire video because I typically don’t have time to sit through some of the longer reviews or I’m just impatient.
For example, I watch Doug for quirks and features, Throttle House and Carwow for fun stuff, Savagegeese for details on engineering/driving dynamics and Raiti’s rides for exterior/interior details.
What I watched for the first time yesterday that I am completely floored on is the Dobre Brothers. Wow, these guys have a really nice house and a bunch of exotic cars and I believe it’s all from YouTube money. They sound so dumb (but from a YouTube perspective are very smart) and the video and editing quality is terrible. I think I actually became dumber after watching their video.

Just be open to new things, is all I'm saying. 
he's worked to develop his own shtick and tons of people like it. he rates storage spaces in terms of how many twinkies and hot pockets he can fit, for example. his negatives are 'zonks'... just his style.
a bit over the top for me, but the camera work his wife does is very good.
you could also just speed up the video or just not listen to the audio at all to skip his speaking.

And how did you manage to quote this? I got a message from a mod saying don't ignore the mods when they say get back on topic and as a result, this was deleted.

Yeah, Doug's waaayyyy more subtle, more sophisticated and such a complex man. I think I like the Doug camera angles/edits and Dougy scores the best. He really is better than some arm waving mechanic, lol. And no click bait titles for Doug too.

Doug has some good things with unique vehicles, Raiti is plain annoying, Scotty has those laughing animals, but Sofyen's (again probably mis-spelled it) older car reviews were actually quite good. From 2013 to 2015 he made quick 9 or 10 minute clips of various cars that were easy to watch. Now they take up way too much time at over half an hour and he just rambles on.
