YouTuber Rob ‘Rabbit’ Pitts has died from stomach cancer at 45 years, old according to a video uploaded to his channel.

He was also the star ofNetflix’s Tex Mex Motors,where they followed car enthusiasts searching for undervalued cars in Mexico so they could be restored and sold in the United States.
“You haven’t heard much from me lately, and I know some of you are wondering about what I’ve been up to,” the video reads. “I started feeling ‘off’ after SEMA last year, and I was losing weight. But I was getting ready to film Season two of Tex Mex Motors for Netflix, and I wanted to be camera-ready, so I didn’t mind that so much.”
The video went on to explain that the YouTuber began experiencing a loss of appetite and acid reflux-like symptoms. As a result, he went to the doctor several times until he was ultimately diagnosed with stomach cancer.
The video went on to share his life accomplishments, such as buying his store, filming for his show, and marrying the “love of his life.”
