You have stuck a nerve ith the average guy in the gearhead community, and the young people out there trying to find a way to play in a hobby that is getting hard for the average person to afford. Your open nature, honesty, and the fact that many of us have hit our head on the hood, busted ourselves open, and gone to bed too dang tired for dinner rings true to us when we see you.

Derek...I'm probably your oldest female fan. 78 this year. Just love your channel. My Dad told me if I was gonna hanf around anyway, remember what the parts are called, at least.

[@mr.kramer5435]

I can honestly say this channel changed my life. My mother passed away almost 2yrs. ago. I looked after her for over 10yrs. She helped me get through some dark times in my life. It was literally on the same day she passed that I found VGG. After a while I started to become interested in cars again. I'll be 59 soon but when I was 16/17yrs. old I was a mechanic's apprentice. I chose an other career later. Ironically, my son did become a mechanic. We had become distant with each other but when my mother became ill, he put on his winter tires and drove 250 miles to be at her side. Later that night he heard the intro for VGG and we sat together watched an episode. Since then he's moved back in with me. I bought a car that we could work on together. I emailed Derek for advice on which would he recommend performance heads or Holley Sniper. The car is a perfect sleeper now and I just bought a Mustang that was a drag and we're going to "dial it down a bit". Thank you Derek, your family and other subscribers who helped an older feller to see there still is sunshine. You just have to know where to look.

Derek, I can only imagine how long it takes to edit something like this. Not only do you have to FIND what you're looking for, but you have to extract it from the original file and add that clip to this compilation. Both you and Jessica have a legendary work ethic. One of the many things we appreciate about you guys!!

[@golffit3066]

A few things have come to me over the years of watching VGG: 1) I love the quirks and sence of humor of Derek 2) I love the adventures you take us on 3) You're intentionally or unintentionally teaching people to be problem solvers 4) Every man deserves his very own Jessica and the boys. (One day they'll understand how fun they have it and continue with their own adventures)

I still remember the day I first stumbled across a guy’s channel two years ago. Thermochemistry homework wasn’t goin well so I hopped on KZbin to take a break and hooked my peepers on a revival of a 67 F250 in a field. Liked the video, left a nice comment and got back to work. Not 5 minutes later, a guy gets a notification that the channel replied to thank me for the kind words. That’s when I went back and smacked that bell. Don’t regret it a bit!

Derek, you don't need to keep thanking us.

Thank YOU! for the last 3 years, you've instilled patients in a lot of people when they've needed it the most! I don't know if i could turn wrenches without spouting a curse word every 2 minutes. But, you let your knowledge of this stuff guide you instead of getting angry at everything. and it's enjoyable watching someone who knows what he's talking about speak that knowledge. Thank YOU!

Derek and the VGG crew, I can't tell you how happy I am to see you finally get the recognition that you've always deserved. I've been watching for a long time and I've always been proud to be a subscriber. Never any more proud than I am right now. I'm really happy for you all and I'll continue to watch. Keep up the awesome work brother!

Congratulations Derek! We want to thank you for allowing us a glimpse into yours and your family's life. Your approach to car repair and restoration is unique and fresh. A feller has shot more than a few cold snacks out the ol schnozzola from laughing so much. Thank you Derek, Jessica, and the boys for being who you are and doing what you do. Keep doing what you do and we'll be here when you hit the 2 million mark. 😁👍❤️
