James I know this situation has been hard on you for the past few years. I know this video wasn’t easy to make and you’ve been putting it off for awhile now. But I’m glad you’re showing the audience the truth. This isn’t an uncommon occurrence where YouTubers PAY for a build and the shop screws them around and screws up their car. The shop gets the money and the millions of views making them look GOOD when in reality they have no business working on peoples cars. The hardest part is having to make a choice to walk away from the shop and say nothing to your audience. Which allows people to form their own ideas about what happened or you make a video exposing the shop which can also hurt your own brand in the process. I’ll give it to you. You’re stronger then me for doing this. Ive walked away from shops in the past and always got blamed for “burning the bridge” because I didn’t make a video like this exposing them. Stay strong bro. I hope they make this right! I’d also like to offer our help. I can have Mike Essa our full time tech fix your car and I’m sure we can get it tuned properly! Let me know how we can help. All at no cost. Call me. ❤
Ive thought all along something must be up with the build, and as a creator I know how hard this video was to make, tons of maturity in handling this and giving them so many chances to make it right. Crazy they did this with someone who has a channel with 4 million subscribers, imagine what they do with regular customers cars…
I bet they just replied his offers because of his popularity, i wouldn’t doubt they would be capable of even ignoring him if he were a regular customer.
Man Strad… this is a difficult situation. Ill be sending my Prayers your way that this situation is handled and that justice is prevailed. God bless you and your life man, your dad would be so proud of you with how your dealing with things.
The fact that they havent even apologized officially… Not even commented under this video says how crappy they were since the beginning. I can’t even imagine how frustrating it might be for you, James. But the way you’ve handled it is just amazing. Been a subscriber for years now, and you never cease to amaze me man.
Realizing that I’m just a 43 year old rando on the internet that enjoys your videos, I have to say I’m proud of you brotha! To put out a video like this on your channel knowing how hard you work to keep your content as uplifting and happy as possible had to be mentally draining. I took 45 minutes to go through the comments and I don’t think I saw a single person blast you in any way for posting this video, but I did see a ton of support and loads of people that are feeling this pain with you. I’m sure this was difficult but it was exactly the video you should have posted. Ya done good, kid.

This is very unprofessional of them to be skewing you over like this. Thank you for sharing. This is very understandable and I hope b rogue needs to be held accountable for their actions and YOU can get your car back to the way it should be/was.
Hope b rogue actions lead to consequences. We are here for you James. Thank you for you being the most patient person and just being who you are. People like you deserve better treatment than this.
Damn bro, mad respect for Strad for keeping it professional even now, trying to explain to the audience what really happened without trying to straight up destroy B rogue..
Take them to court James, get your money back. The fact that you have everything documented is more than enough to end this madness and have them cover this issue.
do not forget the lost income not having this car on the channel. such shops should not be open and work on cars. I do not understand a shop screws a YouTubers car up like this. this is asking for bad publicity , so stupid and dumb
@U NHe absolutely can, but that’s a lot of work and James might not want to deal with that headache. This video will more than likely cost b rogue more in customers than they would ever have to pay in court.
@Bo Verkest he should definitely sue them. This video is surely tanking their business now, but they released a statement saying they will take legal actions against James. Like the sheer audacity. But we also have to blame James for defending them for so many YEARS. The moment it went over a year, everyone knew it was a scam, and people warned him as well. Let’s hope it’s not too late to get back at them.
@U N if they actually attempt to sue james they will get absolutely nothing. If they do sue james should absolutely countersue and he will win that by a ridiculous margin. B rogue built will go broke paying out the court fee for that.
TheStradFam has wrecked them more than the OG. Google took down their local listing due to so many negative comments and IG should be next. StadFam for ❤️
Everyone, let’s catch up on some Stradman videos, and don’t forget to give them all likes, this guy has a car to resurrect, and this is how we can help!
This just shows how great of a person James is. He gave them around 6 months to clean a their mess and make up for it before going public. Takes so much patience and self control.
Really appreciate this video. I’m glad you came out and brought this to the public. We’ve all been waiting on this. Someone needs to take accountability.
So insane bro you’ve been more than nice, way more than anyone should ever have to be which speaks to your character. Hope you can get it worked out and finally on the road!

You’d think that since millions of people will see this car ok the internet they would make the best possible build they can, unbelievable
Dang didn’t know you watched stradman bro. Common Harrison W
I bet they just replied his offers because of his popularity, i wouldn’t doubt they would be capable of even ignoring him if he were a regular customer.
Don’t stress, get a lawyer. Sue them, get your money back. And then roast them on social media.
@HarrisonNevel i love your videos bro. i didn’t think im gonna see u in his comments. much love ❤️ ❤

The only bad part of this video was that he should have done it sooner

Hang in there Strad. The youtube community stands with you.
I literally entered and graduated college since this car was at B-Rogue. This is crazy, I am so glad that you are finally speaking your truth.
This is very unprofessional of them to be skewing you over like this. Thank you for sharing. This is very understandable and I hope b rogue needs to be held accountable for their actions and YOU can get your car back to the way it should be/was.

Take them to court James, get your money back. The fact that you have everything documented is more than enough to end this madness and have them cover this issue.
Agreed. You shouldn’t have to pay for the shop to fix it especially
yes indeed
Agreed.
Agreed take them to court and get your money back you can easily win this case!
do not forget the lost income not having this car on the channel. such shops should not be open and work on cars. I do not understand a shop screws a YouTubers car up like this. this is asking for bad publicity , so stupid and dumb
Imagine destroying James’s car and refusing to pay for the damages! Great job B Rogue!
Can he not sue them for it?
@U NHe absolutely can, but that’s a lot of work and James might not want to deal with that headache. This video will more than likely cost b rogue more in customers than they would ever have to pay in court.

you can hear the disappointment in his voice when he says “i’m over it.”strad’s such an amazing person he really doesn’t deserve it:(
Everyone, let’s catch up on some Stradman videos, and don’t forget to give them all likes, this guy has a car to resurrect, and this is how we can help!
I think the best course is to let Alex and Gintani finish this build and restore it back to its glory
Hell yea
Let’s get this thing rebuilt, man. I’m down to help any way you need.
begone annoying bot
This is wild. Sorry to hear man. Hope this car gets sorted eventually since I know this one means so much to you.
This just shows how great of a person James is. He gave them around 6 months to clean a their mess and make up for it before going public. Takes so much patience and self control.
go away bot
