How about you use the report button on any posts that are actual attacks on members ?

Yup. And if EH didn't have any connections to where she could never provide the content she did, she'd have around 200k.

Even sarah n tuned, he/she has around 500k subs but he/she actually provides detailed car content. He/she demonstrates what it's like actually working on a car and not just driving your project to a shop and playing music while a bunch of dudes do all the work, then being pretty with the daisy dukes and laughing and saying it's amazing. That's how she gets her clicks.

You guys should watch “Fastest Car” on Netflix and see her drive in that. She’s a good human being and I enjoy her videos. I don’t think she’s trying to be the “hot girl”; more like the all-American girl next door who works on cars and enjoys all things automotive.

I guess I’m in the younger demographic of Corvette owners at 47yo , but when my time comes this will be my 2nd Z06 and I enjoyed EH’s content. GM is getting a lot of publicity and enthusiasm from her channel and its viewers.

It's all a big game. If you look at a wide variety of youtubers in the same niche, you'll find the most successful are all basically doing the same thing. Like for car stuff, Emelia Hartford and Stradman are damn near the same person when it comes to their persona. If you look at their old videos, they acted different. Or catch a random video from someone else that they just happen to be in (like early videos from that guy stradman used to live with... he was completely different in those early videos)... they act totally different. They do that hyper in your face vlog personality simply because it works. The Vehicle Virgins guy does the same sort of thing. Pretty much all of them do.

Then as their channel grows and develops a large audience, they end up with lots of connections because people want to work with them to market their own product or service. At that point the growth accelerates. That's just how the game works.

I used to watch a good bit of the car youtube world. It was just mindless entertainment. But without fail, as channels I liked grow, they just become irritating as hell lol They get that nails on a chalkboard personality going and start pimping merch and crap all the time.

shes making money goofing off good for her. She’s a pretty girl no doubt. I find it comical how easily amused the masses are though, she should do gun reviews too make a fortune lol 😂

Random picture that you or someone went searching the internet for. Im only speaking in regards to her YouTube channel.
Im not stalking her all over the "innerwebs", lol. That's like an entirely different situation. Glad someone has the time...

Strad has more subs, SS717 has more subs. And they're dudes.

It should be relatively easy for an average looking girl who's into cars to surpass those guys. She didn't start youtube a year ago. She's been around the block (probably in real life too).

I like that type of loud, in your face, excited charlie sheen type of content. But when it's coming from a girl who doesn't know anything and tries to hard to act slutty, then mix it with cars, it makes her videos so cringe. If i want to watch girls, hotter girls, that want to tease like that, i'd get a free PW to some onlyfans accounts of girls that look good. Or if i want to watch actual car content, i'd find real youtubers doing that.

But her channel is very awkward.

Wait so you had no idea?

Even if someone never watched a single video of hers, the moment you watch the first 10 seconds of any video, you know something is sus.

It's so obvious. But he/she really knows his/her stuff!

I always wonder how many leg humpers in that channels comments have no idea about that little detail.

The time or two I watched one of Sarah n tuneds videos something seemed off. Just seemed super awkward. I didn’t care for the videos so I just moved on. Figured it was someone just trying to figure out the right “persona” for the videos to maximize the views. This was when it was a tiny channel just getting started.

But I was surprised a couple years later when I read the truth on a forum haha. But it definitely explained the awkwardness in the videos I saw long ago.

Wait what? Sarah is “tuned”? <queue the Crying Game music>.

Your instincts were spot on. Also an Air Force veteran with mechanical knowledge and a good intellect.

Reminds me of our USMC veteran we have here and all appreciate.

I had no idea. That said, I did not frequent the channel, I just knew of it in passing and watched a few of the review videos on certain cars. A lot makes sense now, yes. I am still going to need a minute.

The provocative thumbnails are really messed up. “Sarah” really needs to be honest with the audience.

yeah super time consuming type her name hit images then search 🔍 Looks like she was a wanna be model and found a great gimmick. Good for her

He/she is witty and provides long videos with lots of details. You know he/she really knows her stuff. If he/she has someone around, it's maybe 1 or 2 guys at most but he/she is still doing most of the hands on.

Emelia doesn't do that. Her channel is geared differently. She obviously knows what she's doing from a youtuber standpoint, but the fact that she hasn't hit 1 million subs yet just proves that her content isn't what people really want. A lot of her subs are from dudes that want to see an average looking girl who wears short shorts play around with cars. The girl is a dick tease and nothing else.

She's a 6 at best. A quick stroll in midtown manhattan and the first 5 minutes you can count up to 10 girls who look like victoria secret models.
