I guess you either love these guys or you hate them. My wife finds them incredibly annoying when she hears them on the radio.
Myself, I love them. Their accents are not off-putting to me, and I love how they laugh together.
What I’ve learned over time, though, is that the ’straight’ answers they provide are actually pretty authoritative. They actually know what they’re talking about, based not only on their extensive formal education but also based on their hands-on work with many, many cars.
If I personally found anything annoying, it’s only their constant self-referencing which gets old. However, it’s a part of their “shtick” which we would not want to do without…
