To actually USE* the first aid kit that came with his car
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
*Note I didn’t say NEED. Doug seems like the guy who injures himself a lot.

Those are some of the risks you have to take to fully document every quirk and feature.

I once used my ‘87 300D’s first aid kit, but it was to do a temp patch on a hose until I could get it to the dealer.

God fuck Douglas I thought you would finally explain the double T-shirts. But no.

The small wiper logos is on all refill wipers from the MB dealer. I buy them because it’s cheaper than the same Bosch refills from Amazon/Pep boys/etc.
Though I only drive a non AMG wagon, I love it for the same reasons Doug does.

Doug is the type of a guy who has three nipples, but only uses one

Wiper pricing is crazy. I used to put Mazda blades on my non-Mazda cars because the inserts were dirt cheap and had graphite in them. Never streaked and lasted a very long time.
Our Durango has similar type blades but FCA doesn’t sell inserts for them. I might have to measure them and go shopping at Mazda when the time comes....

He had a video trending at #11?

A surprising lot of his videos end up on Trending. I saw one at 8 once when I was watching it. Explains the crazy amount of views and comments he gets, for being a relatively small channel.

I’m subscribed and watch a fair amount of his videos. I haven’t been able to wrap my head around Doug’s recent YouTube popularity. He’s up near a million subscribers and the Countach video was at nearly a million views after 24 hours! His presentation is kinda bad, his camera and editing work is bad, and he only just recently bought a microphone that works. I don’t get it.

Autotrader must pay Google to put his videos on trending and recommended pages, so people click on them at watch them for a few seconds....

I like his Washington Wizards t-shirt but why is it a size too big and being worn over another t-shirt that is poking out from under the collar? I swear this man is the whitest man on the planet. How he hasn’t yet started amassing a collection of Nike Air Monarchs is beyond me.

My guess is he’s going multiple video shoots in one go, and changes them between them so no one notices he’s wearing the same thing in two different videos.

The equipment doesn’t matter! It’s about the...um...quirks and features.
But seriously, going in-depth and showing people all the cool details they never knew about is really interesting, and is something nobody else does. It’s like SaabKyle04 but much more focused.

For some reason I find him incredibly entertaining in a dorky way. The video where he crushed the Allroad with the Defender may be the best car video on the internet. I love where he just wraps the tow strap around the steering wheel.

15 for the rear, 18-20 for the fronts (each). The factory blades didn’t have the logos. the new cars don’t have them either. Only refills.

Refreshing, not gonna lie. Amazon is both cheaper and better than the dealer for all my cars (Bosch ICON FTW), but even those dealer prices are no match for what my buddy pays for his E39: $75 per wiper!!
The little hooks are proprietary, and so the refills can only be sourced at dealers. I promised to look into finding them online for him, but he may end up selling the car before then...

I think you might be onto something. I wouldn’t put that past Google. It’s no different than websites paying to get listed higher in search results.

True story: I tried watching this video on the nice big tv and stereo in my living room while my wife was upstairs. Doug’s voice is apparently so annoying that my wife yelled down, “UGH WHAT IS THAT NOISE?” Must resume video later.

Because all I had to do was press the ‘play’ icon, I thought that I might watch the video after giving up on the screechy, mistaken dork months ago. In the first half minute, screechy Doug claimed twice that his car is new. I stopped the video after about 39 seconds. I have no use for that dweeb.

Also a True Story: I watch a majority of the good car videos on my big tv/soundbar. Because they look and sound AWESOME. Except Doug’s. I watched a bunch of Ford GT videos when it came out, and Doug’s was the only one that looked so horrible on my TV I saved it for later for my laptop. And headphones.
