I prefer seeing the ones with the ads associated with the car instead of seeing random boring stock clips in between.
The ads, movies and tv program !
Kind of miss the pop culture references that have previously been in the videos. The little bits of humor are a nice touch
I miss the vintage clips from movies and ads in this new editing.
7:08 "Subaru added a foothole in front of the rear wheel." The editor highlighted/illuminated the wheel, instead of the foothole. We all know where and what a rear wheel is. Outside of that, the editor did a decent job.
It felt like an educational film for a classroom instead of a mini documentary.
Fun fact- Regan always had himself filmed driving a jeep cj as to look more american but he liked subaru more as it was easier to drive with a better ride, very true if youve ever dailyd a jeep cj or wrangler.
Smart idea...cause people would FLIP if he didnt. This is absolutely still done today (POTUS & other public officials)
@@averyparticularsetofskills Keeping up appearances, Sonny Barger the former leader of the Hell's Angles did the same. In an interview, he said he preferred Indians and other makes, he thought they were more comfortable and more reliable, but he has to ride Harleys for the look.
Daily drove a '76 CJ5 304 4bbl 3sp, '83 CJ5 258 2bbl 4sp & '73 Cherokee Chief 360 4bbl auto from 1983-2010 & had a '88 & '90 Cherokee 258 auto in there too that I used for fun in the woods & hunting but I loved those little Brats just because they were quirky ✌💖☮
somewhere I saw that he had a Scrambler CJ-8 for his ranch - also a capable 'truck' type thing for mud and hills but nearly worthless for cargo
WHEN DOES THE FUN BEGIN??
This video was good. But, I miss how most of the clips used were from around when the (insert car here) was built. It seems this new editor is using unrelated clips, logos and art from today. It also seemed way to quick, and didn’t have the same vibe as older videos.
New editor needs more sleep and less caffiene 😂
Exactly. Hurried like every second cost money. Fun fact, making it a bit slower would have stretched the video over 10 minute mark and got more ad revenue.
I concur
Yes, far too jumpy
You should be quiet, Sir! Very, very quiet!
The new editing needs some work. For now I prefer the older style of editing
These niche vehicles never move as many as the manufacturer expects but they are always loved by their market. I just hope they keep trying stuff like this
The editing in this video is very busy, there's too much going on. It's like every time you say something it has to be reflected on screen and it's just jarring.
I agree.
Agreed
Agree
I think he said he has hired people for editing I think
Was gonna say the same thing, too busy
Like did we need to see a picture of chickens every time you said chicken? You should verify that they didn't have chat GPT do this
Agreed.
What’s with the “snowy” graphic effect? It’s terrible. 😬
At 2:42 mark it shows a Holden Ute instead of the Ford Ranchero narration.
I didn't even watch the video yet, and this is his first video with the new editor so things may get ironed out in future videos, but I wonder how they let THAT slip through... yikes 😬
Yes about a 1973 General Motors Holden HQ ute to represent a 1957 Ford Ute.
The footage of the "Brumby" at 6:30 through 6:35 is from the recent Mighty Car Mods series where they restored/modified a barn find Brumby with the help of Subaru of Australia. They did a really nice job of it, swapping in a 2.0L SOHC engine from a 1st gen Subaru Forester.
Nice catch! Yeah that was a fun video series to watch.
Yes, and it's a little annoying because the editor is showing it as an example of the 80s BRAT when the MCM Brumby is a modern restomod with custom 3D printed and Forester parts that aren't representative of the actual car.
I thought it was and I hoped that someone else saw it
It seems there are artificial effects like discoloration/overexposure or dust particles being added to archival footage to make it look more "authentic"? I find it quite distracting.
Yeah, the “snowy” effect makes for a poorer-looking video. It’s okay for a couple of seconds, but is used far too long here.
The only editing I seen that was flawed is they highlighted the rear wheel instead of the foot hole you were talking about.
I noticed the same thing.
🤦♂️ the new editor needs to brush up on Aussie utes. 2:44 that’s a Holden HQ Ute shown next to Ford. You get hung, drawn, and quartered for that here.
The new editor really should put sources into the video (MCMs footage of their recent Brumby build)
I miss the music! And the integrated commercials 😢
I like the way you edited the videos. It seemed like whenever "truck bed " was mentioned, an interior of a station wagon was shown.
Feels like a video from ideal cars
The BRAT was awesome they were all over Hawaii when I was a kid...but they did rust terribly.
This reminds me of the much newer ordeal where Ford imported passenger vans made in Europe to the US. Then removed the windows and seats. Bolted panels in place of windows and put a floor mat over the rear floor once the landed in the US. Before they even got to their destination area of the country. Can you do a video on these? Please? I seem to remember it was to get around a so called potato tax
Exactly. That's why I'm wondering why Subaru welded the rear seats into place and made them impossible to remove.
Pretty good. Just slow it down a bit to keep that relaxing pacing going.
I like the way you edited the videos. I would rather wait double the time between videos than watch these ones
2023, I saw a Suburu BRAT for the first time since the mid 1980s! It was around a 1980 model, brown & beige, sloooooooow as hell. But boy did it stand out on a road full of dystophic modern cars!
1971 Ford F100 3.9L inline 6. It was indestructible. Offenhauser 4 barrel intake with Holley Carb and Pacesetter dual exhaust headers. Man, it was a torque monster and loud. For only 240 cubic inches, it surprisingly pulled like a diesel.
I prefer the older style of editing ngl.
I was always a fan of the Brat, and the Baja. Thanks for the video!
I’m afraid I couldn’t get through this view due to the frequent orange transmission effect.
backronym: an acronym deliberately formed from a phrase whose initial letters spell out a particular word or words, either to create a memorable name or as a fanciful explanation of a word's origin.
The Subaru BRAT was made famous in the 1980s TV show, Kidd Video, a collaboration between Saban and DiC that had live action and animated segments.
The photo of the “Ranchero” was actually a Holden.
Would love to have seen a split screen with the video you would’ve made for the brat to get a good idea of how different the two production styles would’ve been.
You can watch Patrick’s recent video on the Fiat X1/9 as a good comparison. The differences were pretty noticeable to me.
Check my community page - I have a link to an unlisted copy of my version.
New editor is a bit too aggressive.
An interesting vehicle that I had never seen or heard of here in the UK.
Please do a video on the Ford Explorer sport trac pickup
Why? They're the worst of both the Explorer and Ranger with none of the positives.
Please do an episode on the Mitsubishi Diamante
Right I been waiting on this so long
Love the channel 🤩👏
The name most likely came first, as America absolutely loves their acronyms! Especially the gub'ment!
Also from 2:31. Both General Motors Holden and Ford Australia had been making car based utes from 1934 based on the full size Chevrolet and Ford models being assembled in Australia with significant local content. Lots of locally stamped panels for the ute versions. Later Chrysler models and virtually every company assembling in Australia had ute versions. None of them looking like the Japanese forward control truck shown.
Man, I loved the BRAT! Always wanted to own one, sadly they are very rare in the States now. Only way to get one is to import it from Australia, if a good one can be found. Until then, I'll try to get me a Baja.
Baja is a great newer version of it.
I see plenty of brats for sale in CO, usually they can be had for $2-3k in good shape
The BRAT sure was a weird looking car
Awesome! Excellent trip down memory lane.
As a kid in Alaska, those first and second generation Brats were everywhere until they rusted to pieces. Thanks for this great look at a bygone weird car!
Chicken tax created art
Wait... the chicken tax is still in effect today?!
Sadly, and idiotically, yes
The new Brat coming out looks badass
This channel ALWAYS delivers
I’ve been waiting for this for a while yay
One thing he didn't mention was the air ride option package. When it was put into 4wd it went up 27mm. It also went down 19mm when it reached 55mph. And, there was also 1 light in the centre of the grille that came on in 4wd. It could also be turned on by a dash button. Cool vehicle!
Larry Chen did a great video on one recently, full sti swap,Australia has a following for them
The Japanese small truck manufacturers, including the Chevy LUV (made by Isuzu) and the Ford Courier (made by Mazda) got around the chicken tax by "assembling" them in the USA. They shipped the trucks without the beds attached and shipped the beds separately. Hence, mating the truck with the bed in the USA was the final assembly. Built in the USA.
As an aside, when those trucks started to age, the paint on the truck would fade at a different rate than the bed.
Subaru "BRAT?" More like Subaru "BDRATT!"
2:41 That "Ford Ranchero" is actually a Holden Ute. Editor clearly messed up there.
If you still own one of this wonderful trucks you should have a chicken tax sticker 😂
I like the new format trial. but the background song, a hallmark was too low. Still I can appreciate the episode as it was still very good.
The US Government recalled the Brat I believe in the 90’s to remove the rear seats because a rollover could kill people in those seats because the heads of those passengers would be above the top of the roof.
Our useless nanny government.
I would love for you to do a video on the Chevy Avalanche. I own the black diamond avalanche and I would love to hear all about it from beginning to end. Thanks for what you do with this channel.
You're a better editor.
Good job to the editor, only differences I noticed were a slightly faster pace in the cuts, and a boost in crispness of the video.
You down notice the “snow”? 😬
Same here. I guess the new editor wanted to show they're worth the money they're being paid, and made a graphic representation of every part of every sentence. It's a little overkill.
I loved the BRAT, but I bought a Dodge Dakota convertible.
I have post-concussion syndrome. There are so many moving patterns and pointless flashing bits of light at the screen edges, I became nauseated and couldn't finish the video.☹️
I always wanted one of these!
Thank you for the video and information. The editing was fine.
Too busy done by the new editors.
Nissan Sentra B11-B12 next please
The chicken tax cost the US a lot of interesting vehicles, including the Australian Ford and GM high performance Utes.
Owned both the Brat and Bandit in 1985
The editing is too quick. Like every clip is barely 2.5 seconds.
Another great video, Pat. The new editor did a nice job.
Gotta disagree with you. There are a lot of noticeable differences between the 1st and 2nd gens.
Subaru Loyale
Bi-Drive Recreational All-Terrain Transporter. That doesn’t spell BRAT, that spells BDRATT. 😆😆😆
I want one, also a VW Thing
When does the sound come in?
These were very expensive in North America.
82 Subaru GL 4 door
Cool 🥰
Do the Mazda Millenia.
Ford courier ? Mazda truck?
Mercedes W201, the pre-C-Class compact Mercedes
The chicken tax predates Lyndon Johnson's tenure as president, when he was still a senator...
Just a little slower and then it's very nice editing. One thing I'd really change now though is the background music
I want one of these or a Suzuki X90, just for quirkiness and 4WDiness.
I liked the vintage ads. The pics cycle through too quickly. Too much bad stock footage.
Hyundai Tiburon video, please.
All Subarus from that time are weird, and some other Japanese cars (I'm looking at you, Datsun).
New editor did a pretty good job. Thanks for videos. I'll be waiting another
Astro
British Leyland
Pontiac Catalina
Nice.
talk about Chinese cars manufacturers international expansion
Great video, I’m pleased with the new editing!
Less faux film effect and less rotating of images.
Nothing wrong with the editing.
But what do I know? ;)
Greetings from the Netherlands
MCM
Can you do a video on a Hyundai?
Too busy
