People always need to throw in a subtle Buffalo dig. Annoying.

But they don’t have BUFFALO prominently in anything, not even in the YouTube description ☹

Was going to say the same thing haha. Funny how others are Gymkahna San Fran and shit but this one isn’t called “Buffalo”. Oh well still cool

Was hoping to see at least a mention on the local news but nothing on Buffalo News, WGRZ, WKBW or WIVB.

Is that really a bad thing considering that it looks more deserted and overgrown than The Walking Dead?? The Central Terminal has visible standing water in it-most likely bum piss too. So not saying this deserted shit hole is Buffalo NY might not be all that bad

There were some cool parts to this. The train. Almost losing it on the water edge. But a lot of it was kinda boring same ole same ole gymkhana stuff. Probably could have cut out half of it and it and not missed much.

The whole Raptor/Helicopter thing was pretty lame. Basically just a Ford product placement piece.

It was very meh in my opinion. No Buffalo mention at all really, and a bit of a tired video concept…

Still… I always enjoy these for what they are so I guess I can’t complain.

I’ll admit I really expected more with the helicopter/Raptor. I still think it was great to see them get away from the gimmicks and get back to just great driving.
