Yes, I'm well aware of that. My comment was more of an add-on to your remarks about his schtick (on his videos), where besides his squeaky voice and the overuse/overemphasis of words like "quirkssss anddd feaaaaturesss" and "tthhhhhhiiisss", his video title format is also very overused. I mean, when every other car you review is the "best/ultimate/craziest/greatest" of some sort, those words kind of lose their meaning.
But, much like his voice and choice of words, that's the style that helps him stand out and get him clicks/views.
I'll give Doug credit where it's due since he does at least try to be informative and I will agree that the likes of Shmee are definitely unbearable to watch by comparison.

I didn't even know BMWs had turn signals until he had brought up the column stalks.
