Sarah, I'll give you a short list of what I like about your channel. 1)your attention to detail and refusal to compromise 2)Your quirky personality 3)choice of projects (I'm not interested in million dollar basket case Lambo's) 4)honesty in showing both successes and failures 5)educational nature of your content 6) Your channel allows us to see the amount of effort these long-term projects require (no snap your fingers and it's done) My hope is that you can be happy in what you have chosen to do and not just driven!

[@warren818]

From my perspective, I think this ^^^^ is what so many of us love about your channel. I don't watch every video, but every video I watch I love! Sarah, thanks for your truly unique content. It is so rad! Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you and yours.

[@kensmith5694]

@@The_Notorious_CRG Yes, that slope seems to be very slippery. On month they are promoting something you think they believe in and then a few months later it is nose hair trimmers.

[@bravoMike97]

I would say this is more meaningful stuff than just "content" (I hate that word, it's like the lowest and most soulless descriptor imaginable). The cars themselves definitely fall in the category of art. The videos too in many aspects. They're motivational, educational, inspiring, entertaining and funny. You don't make "content" or "KZbin Videos", you create handcrafted works of art.

[@KOrnhOliO1]

‘I’m a living blooper” is the best line I’ve heard in a long time. I really enjoy your content. I’m an extreme amateur mechanic and have screwed up more car repairs than I have completed successfully. It is fun watching someone doing it right. Thanks for producing the content for us.

[@NickB5882]

We’re all walking talking bloopers. Some are just prettier, funnier, and more likable than others. And then there’s Sarah who is on a whole new level and in my humble opinion… the younger and female version of Mike Rowe who also happens to work on one of the few things that I still really care about.

[@OldMan854]

I’m 73 years old. Ever since I was about 15, I’ve wanted to do a full restoration of a ‘50s or earlier automobile. Unfortunately, life sometimes gets in the way and I’ve never been able to afford buying a candidate vehicle let alone the restoration. So I watch your channel to kind of live vicariously through you. The fact that you are so personable and a fellow veteran is just a plus. And, as of today I will become a patreon member.

As a retired ASE master automotive tech, I appreciate your dedication and thoroughness. I know from experience that working on a vehicle it is very difficult to have two people working on the same project. It’s almost impossible unless the tasks have been split between one area and another. Two people just get in the way of each other. As for OCD, I found it quite helpful in my career. Have a merry Christmas and a healthy and happy new year. Cheers!

Agree, I watch lots of tech and mechanical stuff, from guns to guitars to computers to cars to aircraft. You're right, so many are just full of it, so many posers, so many people going about it the wrong way, some who just put on an act. All of my fave streamers on youtube and other places like Twich, they are my faves because they just be themselves whether or not they are knowledgeable or an expert at something. I think you hit on it right there, it's so much more enjoyable to watch content creators who just be themselves and relatable.

[@richardjohnson5979]

Sarah, just an observation from your narration- no one has ever “given” you anything. You’ve earned everything you have! Btw, Squid rocks. And in case no one has commented - thank you for your service. We are a better planet with people like you on it.

[@Kelly-oq9nh]

I’m a 65 year old husband and father of four daughters. I mention this to give some perspective when I say I think you and your channel are wonderful. Your work ethic and the quality of your projects, along with your wit and personality, are a pleasure to be a part of. Thank you for bringing us along Sarah. I hope this doesn’t sound condescending, but I’m proud of you. My girls are all very capable, and I just enjoy seeing people with such talent put it to use.

Honestly, the fact that you don’t want to be famous is what makes you real and relatable. That is a big part of why I keep watching. That and you show the real wok that goes into each build, and it’s obvious that you are invested in each car. For God’s sake start a retirement account already. You won’t miss a hundred bucks a month now the same way you’ll miss it when you’re 105.

[@Ebbyman413]

Thank you for being you! Don't ever change.

[@JaimeBobby1776]

I genuinely applaud your effort, the amount of video needed to produce an episode is insane. Not only editing but also the commentary that takes place during filming. I can’t imagine the time that goes into editing and production alone. Not only that, the ability to work on the project and simultaneously place the work and yourself into frame… it must be exhausting. Great job on both fronts. One day I’ll have a garage big enough to work in and wash my vehicles in too. 😂

Thank you for sharing a bit about yourself. I've been watching since the episode where you picked up Mister Dos. I was sad when you and your boyfriend broke up, but excited when you finished Mister Dos. Watching you grow in your craft has been really exciting. My favorite series is the Ford Ranger rebuild. I have a 2000 Ranger and hope to restore it one day. If a 55 year old could offer some unsolicited advice, I would find another love, save for retirement, and take time off. Life goes by so quickly, so don't short yourself.

[@truejim]

I love this channel; the sense of humor, attention to detail, excellent engineering, useful car reviews...it's awesome. I'm not sure this can be sustained at this pace forever though; 8 years without a vacation is a lot. At some point, I think the vision for the channel has to be scaled back in at least some dimension, just to make the channel sustainable. This is like trying to run a restaurant where 1 person is the cook, waiter, dishwasher, and host -- with the restaurant being open 7 days a week for 8 years.

[@Sean-gu3tq]
