Mrs. Finnegan takes the wheel, and the cars go up for sale
Episode 423 of Finnegan's Garage brings Mike's wife into his warehouse, and past 600,000 views in its first week.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
My Wife Invaded My Warehouse and Is Selling My Cars!
Mike Finnegan has spent years on Roadkill and Faster With Finnegan driving questionable machinery across the country. For episode 423 of his own channel, someone else got the keys: his wife, who walked into his warehouse with a plan to sell his cars.
"My Wife Invaded My Warehouse and Is Selling My Cars!" was the channel's only upload of the week, and it carried it. About 300,000 people watched on the first day, and it has since passed 600,000. The comments are a fan club for her. Viewers ask for her to become a regular and want more reviews from Mrs. Finnegan. They replay her movie quotes on demand, the moment she held a door shut while driving through what one viewer calls the Death Wobble, and Mike, at the four-minute mark, reaching for a salesman's line about how she will like it better once she drives it. Several commenters say they watched it with their own spouses and compared fleets.
Behind it, the older uploads are ticking along quietly: last month's East Coast boat-racing episode, and episode 422, where the '67 C10 finally lost its wheelhop and drove to Holley LS Fest, with a stop to talk to Murder Nova.
The channel as a whole ran a little below its usual daily pace. Among car channels of its size it sits in the middle for views this week, while Mark McCann and OFFICIALLY GASSED had the big weeks and TheSmokingTire a quiet one. The week still belonged to one passenger who turned out to be the star.
