    It’s great that you didn’t “edit it out” it adds to the video and like the video when your daughter is washing the car was nice. In my humble opinion you’re really doing the right thing with your channel. (As a fan, I appreciate watching your videos and I don’t even have nor ever have had a Volkswagen 😂 I watch and sometimes listen in the background just to understand how Beetle works and if I ever purchased one I’m already prepared to handle problems especially overheating as an example. Thank you for your detailed descriptions and I like the touch of the pause for a meme or pick parts. It makes me smile or understand exactly what you mean. Thank you again! ❤
