I went to the channel and clicked on a random video, it took me all of 3 seconds to realize it's AI. It should be instantly obvious.

Also this channel is from Bangladesh, less than a year old, and already at 56 videos.

It's a garbage channel, avoid at all costs.

Better yet, report it

What is the fuel type and refueling procedure (Gasoline (2.0L EcoBoost))
Fuel Quality
Your vehicle is
designed to operate on regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87[1].

For optimal performance, especially in hot weather or when towing a trailer, premium fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher is recommended[1]. It is also recommended to use Top Tier detergent gasolines to help minimize engine deposits[1]
Do not use:
  • Diesel fuel, leaded fuel, or fuels containing methanol[1].
  • Fuel containing more than 15% ethanol (E15) or E85 fuel[1].
  • Fuels containing kerosene, paraffin, or metallic-based additives (such as MMT)[1].

What should I report it for? I find it obviously helpful and thought provoking.

Aren’t you overreacting just a tad? What even makes it so obvious to you that it is AI? If it IS AI - it is well done imo. Going to smash the like button tbh.

Glen Baker LLC posted this video in a different thread. Useful info and most likely AI. Seems the link I shared in the OP is another AI modifying the same info? Anyway, both videos are informative & helpful imo. Not anything like the AI slop giving generic & false info in a 2027 model…

Mine runs fine on 87,
Runs a bunch better on 93 ethanol free,
Eco mode sucks no matter the fuel.
I am not a flat lander.

Been trying the mid grade juice, the 89 octane.
It’s does ‘feel’ better than 87 but it’s just a feeling.
Now that it’s getting hot I’ll be feeding Pepper
93 octane ethanol free.
It’s still $5 a gallon but on average I only burn
Seven or eight gallons a week.
No big deal.
