Of course I went to SEMA but this is all I wanted to see…

Sometimes I think we all need to remind ourselves that SEMA is NOT a car show. It is a trade show. There is a competition within the SEMA show called “Battle of the Builders” but that is just a small percentage of cars that most in the world could never compete with. Most of the cars at the show are there to represent a brand or company. That is why it is a trade show. Not everything you’re going to see is amazing. Most of the stuff isn’t, in fact. I don’t think it was ever meant to be. Somehow we as consumers forgot about this and decided it was a car show. Every year I’ve been going I’ve seen stuff I like, and stuff I don’t like. If I see something I already know I won’t like, I’ll just avoid it and go find something else I enjoy. There are like 1000 cars there, most of them you’re probably not going to like. I’ve been going for over 10 years now and have learned that when I go and film content there, I’m only gonna spend time looking at the cars that cater to my tastes. And then I’m outta there. I was in my own bed by Thursday night and I saw everything I needed to see…
