    But these two gigantic dorks said it would be great. Now I’m confused. Is YouTube lying to me?!

    Haha. For them it’s all about the views. Hoovie’s content is slightly entertaining. The other guy, not so much, especially when he features his wife.

    I hope this is straightened out for you quickly! Communication is so important in smoothing over delays or issues.

    I’ve seen the chubby guy implicitly promote two unsavory ferrari folks on the only two videos of his I’ve ever watched. I know nothing more about the man, but I don’t feel the need to watch more videos.

    Only way to save anything is refunding the money however I hear more and more that there is no money!

    If by chubby guy you mean Adam Helm, he's no longer a part of Dan Hurlbert's operation, per Dan. Something is going on there because Hurlbert refuses to discuss it when it's brought up other than to say "he's no longer affiliated with the company". My personal interaction with Adam was good. He wasn't the most detailed oriented person I've done business with, but he was personable. I'm really curious what happened there.

    Glad to hear. I have about 20 people and businesses on my list who are joining to go after them.

    My 575m has been at EAG for two years now. Art has ghosted me. I am demanding that they return my car this month. CEO Chris was supposed to contact me yesterday but failed to do so. I am exploring legal remedies.

    Well it’s technically not stolen because the owner freely handed over the keys.

    Disagree.

    If said property was handed over with an explicit timeline that has far lapsed, then the car is 100% technically stolen if it has not been returned in a timely manner as per a request to do so.

    Very straightforward.

    And you've requested that it be returned to you?

    That's literally one of the key elements...

    On a side note: if your car has been at a shop 7 years it’s because they have no desire or intention of ever completing it. I’ve been there. Cut your emotional and financial loses and move on.

    Is it true its been there for 2 years? Was there a contract with a timeline? If no timeline, as regrettable as this situation is, that is on dhalperin13. I'm not taking sides on this but curious if there was a contract. I had my contract with EAG signed in 2021 with a specific timeline for completion in 2021.

    Anything but straightforward, and I have seen this situation play out this way many times. The Police will NOT generate a auto theft report in these cases, no matter how long the cars is in a mechanic’s possession.

    Can’t you just show up with a rollback and demand your property? Surely they can’t keep it from you.
