He has simply degenerated into a hack for Toyota."Does anyone care what Scotty Kilmer thinks".....Simple answer no. ?
I watched one of his videos a while back and found him to be one the most annoying YouTubers out there.
"Does anyone care what Scotty Kilmer thinks?" In a word, "no."Why is a 4cyl Turbo Diesel ok, but a 4 cylinder Turbo DI gas a bad design? Scotty was trashing the 2.3 saying that a lot of people have problems in the Mustang? I get suckered in to a video of his but end up getting annoyed before its done. Its not always against a Ford, sometimes its click bate. Curious as to everyones opinion about either Scotty or DI Turbo, or just Turbo engines overall. Why are diesels considered better with a turbo! Other than compression ignition, principals are basically the same.
Hi Zaph,Scotty straddles the line between annoying and amusing. Some of his stuff is indeed a little click bait like. Which is just where Youtube likes him to be.
That said, He's not stupid, and makes a few good points here and there - Points people don't want to hear about cars they own. Thus he gets strong dislikes from a lot of folks.
I don't regullarly watch any of his videos, I just come across them. He's rarely outright wrong about anything, IMHO. he's just kind of a blow hard that oversates issues.
Pretty much the same here, I don't regularly watch him, just enough to be annoying. Was curious what others thought. Didn't get much input on Diesel to Gas though.Scotty straddles the line between annoying and amusing. Some of his stuff is indeed a little click bait like.

I agree with the fact he does have some good points here and there, but I don’t dislike him for talking about cars i’ve owned, I dislike him because he makes videos that are like, “How to make your car’s AC ice cold by placing 3 pennies on top of the air intake and then apply electrical tape to the MAF sensor. Why pay a mechanic a bunch of money when you can do it yourself.”Scotty straddles the line between annoying and amusing. Some of his stuff is indeed a little click bait like.

I like him, but ONLY as an entertainer. I do not take anything he says as actual advice.Why is a 4cyl Turbo Diesel ok, but a 4 cylinder Turbo DI gas a bad design?
