In today's video I have a chat to you guys about life outside of KZbin and why I still haven't quit my job! Also I look into what to expect for 2022.

[@jackmillin]

Your channel is up there with some of the best I watch and a lot better than some with multi million subscribers. Keep doing what your doing Dean. I've 2 young kids, wife and a full time job and I wouldn't have time to squeeze in creating KZbin content so hats off to you for doing what you do. 👍😎

[@andrewhowells3522]

Couldnt agree more.

[@andrewrobertson9827]

Agreed! But when he hits the spotlight it’ll come quick!

[@dereksmith9876]

I think you are absolutely correct. Minimise your risks and do what is right for you. You have kindly allowed us to look into a part of your life. What right have we got to say to you "Why haven't you done this, or that". Just keep doing what you know is right for you and your family. Happy New Year and thank you.

[@SavingSalvage]

Thanks mate, much appreciated 😊

[@thejoneseys]

Now you've explained the last year I'm wondering how the hell you find time to do any car stuff 😂 Always do what's best for you and yours 👍🏻

[@SavingSalvage]

I genuinely don’t know 😂

[@crisfiler6128]

Behind every good man is a good woman....family always come first but you'll reach your goals with your work ethic Dean. Wishing you a Happy and Successful New Year.

[@billsheehy1660]

Family first, you have the full responsibility for a roof over your head and food on the table. Fully respect you doing the very best for your family. The most important section of any life (in my opinion) Don't forget happy wife happy life. Love the content you do put out, look forward to the coming year.

[@generalt1090]

Dean, you don’t need to justify your existence! Folks come to your channel because of the quality of the content and the details and challenges. Put out 1 video a week or whatever r suits you around your family and existing work commitments. I am happy to wait cos I know I’ll be looking into the engine of some vehicle and learning every time I watch. KZbin isn’t the be all and end all . I understand that you’d likely want to earn a living from it but it might take time.. so do whatever you need to do to enjoy your new house and take care of your family first . Keep up the great work and don’t let KZbin run your life.

[@carlmcrobcustomgoldsmith11]

Subscribed with notifications on, content to watch whatever you can put out.

[@nai57]

Keeping the family happy, fed & watered always the first priority. You’ll get there with the channel but makes total sense to keep the transporting going in the meantime.

[@jimbojombo4464]

All the best for 2022 mate i have a wife and 3 kids 1 of those is 19 but still lives at home ha ha but like you said they depend on you financially so hats of to you for working so hard I'm sure it will pay off in the end 👍🏻👍🏻

[@craig5820]

That’s lovely hearing you talk about your wife. Wishing you and the family all the success, happinesses ❤️

[@simonfox9163]

Great content, keep up the good work! Its fresh to see a guy showing the warts and all during the builds. That's for being honest Dean 😎👍

[@rick6738]

I follow the channel straight from the beginning, you are doing very well with the videos and i hope you will have a great year!

[@mrentertainer47]

You will do well. You are articulate and to the point with interesting content. Well done!

[@Elmantukas]

Man you are phenomenal! Doing such hours, looking after a growing family and still managing to consistently make quality youtube videos, what you are doing is nothing less of spectacular, definitely dont feel obliged to go full time with youtube, everything is great as is!

[@waynethompson2939]

Huge respect Dean :) Love the upfront honesty matey........ Family is ALWAYS No1 Priority (happy new year to you & the family) we as subscribers watch your channel Dean cos we can relate to the issues you face on many occasions & enjoy watching every step of you sorting them out ! From start to end its always a great watch ! Good luck this year Dean .... you deserve it matey ! Just do me a favour........ dont stress if you cant get the 2 a week..... we'll still be here regardless :)

Happy New year Dean, enjoy your family... they will grow up before your very eyes and you can't turn back time... my regret of working all hours God sends...also don't burn yourself out....sorry for the dad chat...stay safe 🙏

[@ianpaulins7856]

Family comes first Dean, everyone who watches you will be looking forward to you producing many more entertaining vids.

[@garethjones3259]

Firstly Happy New year Dean. And remember Rome was not built in one day. You have had priorities that you made sure were taken care of, many people quite possibly would not have been so mindful even if they had similar goals to you. What you have achieved through sheer hard work is highly commendable and well done. Absolutely love whatever content you are able to put out whenever you are able, keep on keeping on the 100k is getting closer. Would you perhaps consider an Aston Martin for the supercar? Instead of vag group. Whatever you decide we all look forward to seeing the reveal when the time is right.

[@therealdojj]

congratulations on the baby on the way

[@series1RS6]

Happy New Year mate, enjoy your new home and spending time with your family, you seem to be doing just fine.

[@MrCabbage64]

Love the honesty, and so pleased you have been able to move home! I think your subscribers are of the quality who understand all of life’s demands and really don’t care if videos are out regularly! The quality is enough for us. Keep doing what you’re doing!!

[@ste4414]

If that’s a actual pic of your house dean I don’t blame you for sticking to the transport game wow fair play. Lovely mate, shame though as your probably one of the best knowledgable mechanics/technician I watch.

[@paulthompson5416]

Dean keeping a roof over the family’s head is the main objective!! Just do what you can bud it’s all anyone could ask from you. Keep up the great work 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@staceyismine]

You should take the camera with you in the transporter

[@michaelwalker8766]

What you can and have provided for us is far more entertaining than some that put out a lot more. As others have said, family always comes first, the kids are only young for a short time so enjoy them while you can. Can’t remember who said it but always leave them wanting more. Thank .you for a good year and here’s looking forward to a better year.

[@stephenwilliamson1491]

A feel your pain a was doing 70 hour weeks all of 2021 driving a taxi and building a merc sprinter campervan. And saving to move house. A quit driving cab for couple of month though. To get bit of balance again. Knee’s have been acking with constant driving so some gym time and finish my build and fix my own cars lol!

[@NohabloEng]

I would keep the business going with drivers and keep that income & continue to do more youtube when you can and get that internet money

[@davep4589]

Very informative and sincere Dean, being a driver myself luckily 15 hrs days are in the past, but I know when doing them finding family time, general chores never mind the hours you spend doing/editing for us on you tube, dunno how you do it mate, here’s to watching you get your well deserved super car

[@MrFlazz99]

Good man! Stick with what pays most reliably - and your transport business is like another child, so I understand how hard it might be to let it go. We appreciate the content you provide.

[@ryantremblay8006]

You are doing a unbelievable job juggling all the responsibility you are juggling. Mad respect. Keep pushing.

Thanks mate 😊

[@SavingSalvage]

Thanks mate :)

[@meldeanie20]

Can I just say over the last year or so your channel an conntent has been one of the best. Great new years resalotions look foward to watching! Hope your settled in your new house. Last year was a crazy one for everyone in some way shape or form. Onwards & Upwards 👍🏻

[@MrSkoda105s]

Happy new year to you too! Interesting story about your life. Respect for all the thing you’re doing. It’s definitely more than a full time job. Hope your dreams may come true. That 2022 brings you your super car and that you’ll reach your goal about the 100 K subscribers! As for me, I already like your videos a lot and learn so much of them. Oh and congrats with the third one on the way 😃. Cheers mate 🍻

[@walruspolish]

You don't owe anyone an explanation, Dean. I'm sure I speak for many people when I say how much we love and appreciate your content. Juggling work & family life is a challenge at the best of times, let alone trying to build your channel too with those commitments. If it's one video a week, or one video a month I will still watch & be grateful. Thank you for all your content so far, and best of luck for 2022. PS - just an idea of what might increase views - you do a lot of VAG stuff, I'd love to see more VCDS content e.g. a full brake bleed from the master cylinder using vcds etc. There's not a lot out there for that on KZbin and I'm sure from a 'keyword' aspect it'd send the algorithm into overdrive as it'd cover so many vehicles.

[@f1kwa399]

I watch and enjoy every video, you explain and show in detail a lot more than many and whatever you are able to add will only be a bonus to us all. As many have already said, take care of your family first and we’ll all be here to enjoy your content whenever you are able to generate it. Best wishes for this new year.

[@sajedb]

Just take it easy, you know better your necessities. Wish you all the best.

[@andrewkidger7048]

Great Vid Dean, thank you for the great videos last year, your channel is the best on KZbin, better than watching the tv by far !!, you are a honest, humble guy, doing your best, a real treat, well done mate, let's have a good in in 2022, all the best and well done.

[@richardtaylor2449]

Happy New Year for more cars' Dean and family 🥳🥳🎉🎉🍻😷

Well done. I've been here since the start, I'm not going anywhere. You do what you gotta do

Well keep it up. I can't believe you manage to run a business and do the type of KZbin channel you do, with real interesting car repair content.

Well done Dean, keep up the good work 👌🏼 Don't forget to let me know if you ever want any of your projects valeting 👍🏼

You've made the correct decision, put your family first, financial security is everything; but now a KZbin plan, excellent!

[@marknewman6037]

Having a family is the best motivation you will ever have.....ever, work every hour you can earning money whilst you have your youth and motivation. By the time you are 50 you will be exhausted.....trust me. Happy new year to you and family, loved every video, good luck and keep it up. 2 good videos a week is more than enough so that subscribers look forward to them.

[@paullaw5054]

Happy New Year Dean. Always nice to know about the person in front of the camera. Don't neglect customers as they are your bread and butter. Although I would like more videos of your excellent channel, I understand the constraints that you work under and so the anticipation of waiting for the next vid to arrive makes it all the more enjoyable when it does land. Best of luck with the new year resolutions, mine.....sticking with the best channel going....... yours of course.

[@steveegginton535]

Really enoyed much of the content on your channel last year and look forward to more in 2022

I applaud your work ethic doing what ever is needed to provide for your family, but please take great care with 15 hour days and driving when tired.

[@georgedaville4662]

Happy New Year Dean. Glad to hear you have now moved house, and have got a defined strategy for 2022. Your channel deserves a lot more followers, your detailed knowledge and ability with VAG vehicles is second to none. A round up of work in progress with vehicles in the garage would be welcome. You are getting noticed, since your work on the RS4 V8 rebuild has been referenced across other channels on You Tube. I wish you every success in your endeavours for this year and look forward to the resolution of the issues of the vehicles in stock. 😎👍🎯

You’re good as you are, the lower the risk the better you will feel! Enjoy every video whenever it is! 👍👌

[@paulgreenwood7600]

Hia Bud, keep up the hard work, echoing previous comments , Ive never bothered subscribing to channels, not really bothered, however, your story deserves all the luck in the world, so Ive popped my cherry and your my first subscribed channel. I've had an RS3 in the past and still hold them close to my heart, sold it at 5 yrs old with 11K on the clock to a very passionate guy from jockland and he still owns it today, anyway, have you ever though of delving into the BMW route, Not necessarily the M cars but anything BMW, they've been my daily since i divorced myself from Audi.

[@SavingSalvage]

Thank you mate! Appreciate it 😊.. I’ll be honest, I do want to do BMW, but I only want to work on cars I genuinely like and are interested in. And I’m just not interested in older BMWs, I do like the newer ones though and want an M2.

[@kevinthomas1259]

Happy new year to you Dean. As many others have said you must put your family 1st, you did well to put any videos out last year. We will look forward to what ever you are able to put out for us this year best of luck getting things together.

[@stevenmoran4060]

I think you would get a better return on your cars if you didn’t get carried away adding custom parts. Most folk are just looking for a standard sorted car. Any extras they can do themselves. Think the Mustang proved that.

[@BRED510]

Happy new year. Really enjoy your videos. Why not combine KZbin and the transporting cars? Film some of the daily trials and tribulations of that as well the fixing of cars, might enable you to get two videos a week out then, and improve revenue accordingly, and would advertise your business too.

[@SavingSalvage]

I can do, but once I’ve filmed myself transporting one car I’ve filmed them all. It’s a bit repetitive

[@BRED510]

@@SavingSalvage might be worth filming the bad days, people enjoy that, even if you just bank them for the weeks you can't get content out.

[@andrrwprice7281]

Sounds like a plan. On KZbin, you might look at Just Trucking. Justin has just sold his Volvo Semi and replaced it with a W900 Kenny. Of more immediate interest is the fact that he has re-engined a Silverado with an LS2 - and raffled it off. He is doing the same to a TransAm now and has just sold his immaculate Shelby Cobra. Family life is definately included. Plenty od scope to include alln aspects of your life - should you wish. Food for thought!

[@BRED510]

Look at Kevtee too, he's a UK trucker that collects cars, etc.

Great Video Dean. Very honest update and better to have quality than quantity videos. Your family will still be with you after the KZbin boom so placing them first is the right thing.
