Tyler Hoover has built a pretty successful career portraying someone who doesn't know anything about cars (that's the character he plays on screen, I assume he's a lot more knowledgeable in real life.) His Hoovie's Garage YouTube channel has 1.42 million subscribers (he calls it the dumbest automotive channel on YouTube), he has a TV show called Car Issues on the Motor Trend channel, and has been a writer for Jalopnik and Autotrader. In a typical episode he'll go out and buy the cheapest supercar he can find (a Lamborghini, Corvette, etc.), drive it home, and then discover that there are all kinds of expensive problems that need to be fixed by his ace mechanic. His videos should really be considered for their entertainment value only.
