Car Master Rust To Riches Season 4
Rust Valley Ramblings: Season 4 Thoughts (Maybe I'm Alone Here?)
Okay, folks, let's talk Rust to Riches. Season 4 dropped, and… well, here are my slightly controversial thoughts. Prepare yourselves!
I love a good car show. Give me greasy hands and a ticking engine any day.
The Drama, The Machines, The... Wait, Where's Mike?
First off, the drama! It's classic reality TV. Are they really *that* close to financial ruin *every* episode? Maybe. Probably.
But the cars, oh, the cars! That's why we're all here, right? Seeing rusty hulks transformed into gleaming beauties? Pure automotive satisfaction.
Here's my first mildly spicy take: Did anyone else miss Mike Hall's presence this season? He wasn't gone completely, but his involvement felt... less. Maybe he was busy wrestling bears. Or finding even *more* rust.
Unpopular Opinion #1: Less Mike = Less Charm.
Don't get me wrong, Avery and Connor are awesome. They bring their own energy and skills to the table. It just wasn't quite the same without Mike's signature "charm".
The Builds: Hit or Miss?
The builds themselves were a mixed bag. Some were absolutely stunning. Others... well, let's just say I wouldn't want to drive them across the country.
That '71 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus? Gorgeous! The amount of work that went into it was unbelievable. Seriously, incredible job!
And then there's... the other ones. Let's just say not every project can be a winner.
Maybe it's just me, but some of the design choices felt a bit...questionable? Were they catering to a very specific (and possibly eccentric) customer base?
Unpopular Opinion #2: Not every restomod needs neon lights.
I appreciate creativity, I really do. But sometimes, less is more. Especially when dealing with classic cars.
The Business Side: Still Stressful
The constant struggle to keep the shop afloat is always a nail-biter. You can almost feel their stress through the screen.
Seriously, how do they sleep at night? I'd be having nightmares about crankshafts and blown gaskets.
I do wonder, though, how much of the financial drama is for show. Reality TV loves to amp things up. But hey, it makes for good entertainment!
Avery & Connor: The Future of Rust Valley?
Avery and Connor stepped up big time this season. They handled so much responsibility, it's clear they are valuable members of the team.
Avery's fabrication skills are seriously impressive. And Connor's dedication is undeniable.
Are they being groomed to take over the Rust Bros empire? Only time will tell. But they definitely have the talent and passion.
Overall, Season 4 of Rust to Riches was still entertaining. I love seeing these guys bring old cars back to life.
Even if some of my opinions are a little controversial.
What did you think of the new season? Am I completely off base? Let me know!
