A breath of fresh air, Mike being a KZbinr that’s not a liar and doesn’t use smoke and mirrors for his channel🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@GFLMatty]

He also says he does he doesn't hide that. Sadly it's what you have to do to get views on youtube.

[@SchofPov]

So true love KZbinrs that are up front and don’t beat around the bush. Helps me give them even more respect as a business owner myself

[@Nick210]

LMAO. This channel is mostly smoke and mirrors.

[@greggreg2263]

@@Nick210 settle down!!!!!!

[@SC68170]

I mean he did say he's never gotten anywhere close to a million views on a video. Well, that's not true. Lol. I never had anything against the guy but I certainly didn't appreciate entering a giveaway recently (GT500 giveaway) and he dragged it way past the deadline to enter because he was milking it for every dollar and entry he could get greatly reducing the odds of winning it. That didn't sit well with me. Because if I would have known that I would've never entered the sweepstakes.

[@scryla2000]

Bruh let me tell you something I learned after 21 years in the military. You can plan a mission all you want to. What makes mission success is how you work through the kinks. Victory is achieved by sacrifice, heartache, and pain. Dust yourself off bruh, you’re STILL here!!! I’ve been with you since your white Hellcat. You got this!!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

I’ve been watching you since the white Hellcat and don’t think I’ll ever stop watching your channel! Or entering the giveaways!

[@Snowkone81]

This is the main reason why I support your channel and buy your merch. Sure - there's a chance I can win a car, but having this content to get me through my work day and keeping me into cars while still getting cool stuff in the mail is all worth it. Keep up the great work Mike!

Mike, you run a first class channel. Congratulations on your achievements and best of luck moving forward!

We all knew once you set off on your own there would be a few “growing pains” to get setup and established. You’re working through them and we get to watch you start. It’s just that much better because we’re all in this with you. Yes, we want to win a vehicle but we also want to see you succeed. Without you we don’t get any content at all and we can’t have that!

This is one of the main reasons I like your channel. You are very honest about the ups and downs of the channel.

[@jeremy_rigged]

Mike, I was one of your early subscribers from years ago, I too am a south central PA resident. (we know a few of the same people) I’ve always enjoyed your candid nature and openness with your channel, ad revenue, and general business practices. It actually encouraged me to pursue some content creation myself, and have been monetized for a few years now. Although my channel isn’t designed for a large subscriber base, (each video gains viewers solely by search engine results) I do get a great deal of satisfaction from the comment section knowing that one of my videos helped someone out of a predicament with their vehicles. Just wanted to say thank you for continuing to be an inspiration.

[@fit_pharmd4830]

These vids are necessary bro. It connects you more to your audience and mixed up the content. So always share the good and the bad bro, we’re always with you!

[@thejacksonmurphy]

Wow man! You’ve been through a rough spot and are seeing the other side. Well done sticking it out. Hoping one day I can help you with a website for the growing business and a processor you can trust for that amount of sales. In the meantime, keep on doing what you’re doing. You’ve made good decisions so far speaking from watching the channel all since you had an apartment and the “grandpa hates my corvette” times.
