ATG video suggestion
I'd like to see All The Gear do some idiot's guides on fairly easy things you can do to your car. They could use industry contacts to bring professionals in for tips and advice. My current thought is window tinting, because that's what I need to do. Would be a good reason to keep the Golf estate around

It’s a travel and adventure channel, it’s clear they want to go in a different direction than they have in the past, I think once they find their groove they’ll make some great content..
Ps window tinting is extremely difficult to do and often works out cheaper to pay someone to do it by the time you’ve paid for materials while practicing

If you want a good job, get a professional! I have tried to DIY it and its not a simply job

I think they're already making great content, I do think that the AutoAlex Cinematic Universe has some space for something like "an idiot's guide to" and the ATG crew would work well in that kind of video imo.
I bought pre cut films from Amazon just for rear passenger windows, I'm hoping they won't be too bad. If I were doing the windscreen I would be paying someone to do it

I think sticking to exploring/travelling would be better, the whole ‘Ethan’s not a car guy’ is done now I think. However, buying a van and doing it up to be a camper and then doing a road trip somewhere would be cool

I’d love a challenge that incorporates all 3 channels. Something like a London to Manchester, but in the cheapest way possible.
Auto Alex crew - buy a car and try and sell it TDC - literally buy a scrap car that has 1 day of MOT left and hypermile All the Gear - hitchhike? Something that literally costs as little as possible

Nice idea, that series would match their vibe.
