No the under the truck one is funny if anything. Attention seeking even.
I haven’t followed the comments on the other site but I’m reading here that apparently the guy has financial aspirations. Ya I don’t agree with that. But maybe it’s tongue in cheek.
As a car aficionado, Cam, would you refrain from taking a covert photo of a Porsche under wraps? I can’t say I would. I’d probably post it to Instagram too so my friends could get a look (but I only have a 100 people I’m connected with, so ya)
The point I’m getting at is two fold
1\. People are looking for content on this sport, there is no racing and this stokes the fires
2\. I appreciate this article and where it is coming from but it’s really an industry-bro complaint because you all know each other. Most of us aren’t bros in the industry, myself included, and are not aware of the secret handshakes and silent agreements. Hell I don’t even own a flat billed hat, I just funnel my money into the industry.
In my line of work(software) when we test unreleased products with users there are explicit rules on what can be shared and how.
TL;DR
1\. Maybe the guy shouldn’t have done that
2\. PB definitely shouldn’t have posted an article on it
3\. The onus sits on the brand to do a better job if they don’t want this to happen. That’s just common business sense.
