The video you shared earlier was 100% justified, recording and sharing even for your safety, since having an exotic car like the aventador, that you dont know who it belongs to, in a private garage that you personally insure, full of car parts and disassembled cars would look very suspicious, if it was reported stolen or found there, it would make the HQ look like a chop shop. I appreciate your transparency and keep up with the fire content! Dont let the haters curate the content you put out, I personally enjoy both car content, and activities/drama in the HQ.

[@ANHON888]

It’s more of the fact that Dave is always the boy who cried wolf. He has faked so many videos that we don’t know what is real or scripted. So when something real like this happens, people question the authenticity

[@TheRealTomLauda]

@@ANHON888 Yeah... people who can't make the difference are most probably kids and teenagers. Or very naive people.

[@Kyle987x]

The problem is Dave has created so much fake drama that when real drama actually happens we don't know if we are being played again or if it's real. That's the problem when you flood so much fake bs into your videos. Cut that stuff out and you wouldn't have so many people thinking it's more fake bs. Now that we know this is real of course we want to see it!

Guys. REAL FANS need the true story. The simple and easy fix instead of leaving us in the dark is please PREFERENCE the edit before hand so we’re clear on what the situation is: IE “Hey guys. Unfortunately Steven had to go. It was a serious matter and here’s how it unfolded”. Takes the guesswork out of fan speculation and clears it up off the bat. Hate to say it but ever since the Dave skit we wonder. A simple pre video set up like this clears it all up. We come here for the DDE transparency. We demand PT. 2!

[@tinek9844]

[@Lama-it6rk]

Di you really though that on the main channel they just grab the camera and starts recording casually what's happening around?!?! It's so obvious that most of the time things are at least 80-90% scripted, and the rest is left to casualty... They literally have a meeting room to organize what content make and how do it... Haven't you seen the HQ tour when they moved there?!

[@haroldbrown1205]

I believe Part Two is in order. If steven can do this to you, he could do the same with others. It would be a public service to tell the truth about a former employee. It possibly could save someone else's business.

[@paytah3373]

What the truth is is up to a court of law. That's more than likely why part 1 was removed and Part 2 won't he shown. It's not just as easy as "post a poll" or "Karen's doing this" and "woke that". At the end of the day, its Damon's livelihood, his families livelihoods and the livelihoods of the employees. He is NOT going to leave that all to a poll on a social media platform.

You guys are over looking the bigger picture and not getting the full scope of the issue. Transparency and openness is not what the problem is, after the fake lease thing at the other shop, Dave always hyping up DDE was in financial ruin for a while, and then the selling the Senna prank the people pissed in the comment section thought this was another fabricated story for views. You guys have to stop the crap "story line" stuff in order for people to see what is true and on the level. A lot of people want to know things like this, but not at the expense of being duped, why would they think this was real after all the other misleading videos?

[@deviantvideos]

which video is this on?

[@Pingered]

I personally have always really appreciated the transparency of DDE and the behind the scenes content. I really appreciated that we got details of the SVJ windshield incident and the 720GTR crash. As a fan and viewer, it makes DDE feel more personable. I also understand the other POV of some fans just not wanting to hear the drama and enjoying the “peaceful” content. My suggestion is just post behind the scenes drama on DDE Stories so the viewers that would like to follow it have that option.
