Rob 'Rabbit' Pitts, the beloved YouTuber known
for his channel *Rabbits Used Cars* and star of Netflix’s *Tex Mex Motors,* has passed
away at the age of 45 due to stomach cancer. His death was announced in a heartfelt
video titled “This is Goodbye,” uploaded to his YouTube channel on August 25, 2024.
Pitts had built a significant following on YouTube through his extensive car-related
content, where he shared his passion for automobiles. His work on *Tex Mex Motors*
also gained him recognition as he and his team searched for undervalued cars in Mexico
to restore and sell in the United States. The announcement video revealed that Pitts
began feeling unwell after attending SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) last
year, experiencing weight loss and symptoms similar to acid reflux. Despite several
doctor visits, it was not until later that he was diagnosed with stomach cancer.
The video shared some of Pitts' life accomplishments, including the joy of
marrying the love of his life and his work on his show and business. His videographer, Jeff,
confirmed Rob's passing in the video’s comments, stating that Pitts passed away at 21:45
on August 25, 2024, while in hospice care. Jeff also assured fans that Rob's YouTube
channel would be preserved in his memory. Rob's passing follows the recent death of another
YouTuber, Pretty Pastel Please, whose cause of death was revealed to be the rare heart disease
Lymphocytic myocarditis. The loss of Rob Pitts is a significant blow to the car enthusiast
community and his fans, who will remember him for his infectious passion for cars and the
joy he brought to many through his videos.
