A video where a person asks multiple car salesmen what car they would recommend for a teenager. Most salesmen recommend the Toyota Corolla, with one suggesting the Corolla Cross for its safety features and another recommending the Toyota Camry.

Why it worked
The video works because it addresses a common question for parents and new drivers, providing advice from perceived experts (car salesmen). The varied but mostly consistent answers create a sense of reliability and trust, while the slight differences (Corolla vs. Corolla Cross vs. Camry) add a touch of debate and interest. The quick cuts between different salesmen keep the pacing engaging.
