Stellantis has all of them on the payroll, to keep the chatter going, hook line and sinker. All the Social Media Influencers are bought and paid for, once they've reached a certain number of fans. It only makes sense that corporations would buy them to shill and endorse products. Their reach is far greater than any commercial, regardless of platform.

Exactly this. Pecron is using YT content people for their ads on YT now. Not sure if anyone has noticed that or not.

2025 Gladiator High Tide
134 pages on a gladiator forum about a v8, but still Jeep does not hear the call for the v8? Oh, I think they hear loud and clear, they just refuse to do it. They wow us with stickers, paint, steel bumpers, and jumbotrons. We are not buying a Colorado, or Ranger where you need that stuff to sell a product because those vehilcles were designed to stay on the road. Off road was thought of later. Jeep was designed from the start 85 years ago to go off road. The gladiator sells because of what it is, not for what it isn't. But then I look at wrangler and think, it can be done. You can put a factory v8 in this platform. So jeep decides they will not put a V8 in Gladiator because of some bla bla bla excuse when we all have seen it done in Wrangler form the factory, and Gladiator aftermarket.

Well at least they give us stickers and paint, and that is something to wow about. Except Firecracker red. Screw that color, and screw those who might want it. They are probably the same people who would want a v8.

At this point even if they did stuff a v8 in a gladiator, it would just be some super expensive limited edition only a handful would spend their money on, instead of making it a reasonably priced engine upgrade to any trim like normal trucks.

stellantis is too stupid to hear the market, they push out a charger super bee with the hurricane and it sounds like a vacum cleaner. the market screams for a hellcat superbee and they fall to deaf ears.....

Youtube is the new Infomercial of the days past. Just about anyone who has received a Silver YT Plaque is going to try sell you something embedded into their content. The Overlanders are some of the worst Product Placement advertisers, they majority of their gear was given to them for "reviews".

The major CarGuy/Gal channels are all owned by the companies. I think the Tool Review channels are too, owned by HD/Lowes/Harbor Freight and so on, because they always have fliers before anyone else, "insider secrets", secret sources. They're all in on it.

Good job. Now tell us about the pharmaceutical industry.

At this point, I low key enjoy when a YouTuber slides an advertisement in real slick so that I don't know it's coming.

You're gonna hear a spill about something - might as well be crafty.
