Jessica and I finally sit down to explain our move in detail.

Jessica at the start laughing uncontrollably at Derek, 'Are you vapor locking already!' Priceless! 😂
Idk why that caught me off guard, but I was cracking up at that line. It's why I watch.
That's the love language the two of them have in common, cute as the dickens.
I thought that was the cutest moment.
Derek said, “I didn’t even say anything.” Probably tooted, which is why she had to leave
Put a clothes pin on her Derek, (if you don't know ask your grandpa
Always a pleasure to watch your content
Wow wow
Very nice
I love the timebusk site
Happy
As a native Tennessean born and raised in Nashville we are thrilled your family decided to now call this home. Y’all are a bright light in a dark world and I’m so glad to have discovered your channel and tv show. It’s one of the highlights of my week. You’re only a short drive from my house so I hope to get over there to meet you one of these days. Keep up the great work bud!
Tennessee will change for the worse as certain people (not these people) move there.
@@xephael3485 Already has in the big cities. Rural communities like mine are still very conservative. Just stay out of Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga. The rest of the state is red.
@@meotscities where the negroes migrated ok gotcha 😂😂
Nashville, is nothing like it use to be, more like Detroit Atlanta shit
@@alvingriggs6932 that’s why I moved from there to the country 3 years ago. Nashville has become a shithole.
Welcome to Tennessee! I have to say that you are not typical of most folks that move to Tennessee and you guys fit right in. We're glad to have you!
Indeed, welcome from another Northern transplant, oh yeah, yous guys are gonna love it here, believe you me, eh!
Agree, welcome. The rest can go back home. 😂
This is KZhead gold..when you invite fans behind the scenes and share a little bit of your personal life people can’t help but love the VG channels even more! Seeing your guys success is so awesome and it couldn’t have happened to a more a deserving and hardworking family. ..Jeff
Watching you interact with Jessica, allowing her to talk without interruption speaks volumes about the respect you have for her and is just one more reason I continue to watch your channel. And we can't forget funny - you are definitely funny (the beginning, "already in a vapor lock?" hahhah). I'd wish you best of luck but I don't think you need any. You've got the formula. Success is yours. Rock on.
She'll kick his ass and he knows it! LOL!! j/k
And how she talks to him "the events Derek does" not "the events WE do". She respects his grind.
Theses people are the new Red Green . Do a Excellent Job.
Well put...exactly what I was going to say.
@@925CCARY I never though of it that way. Derek and red kind of resemble each other. It would be funny if Derek had " uncle red " stop by on a short video or something. Remember if the women don't find you handsome, they will find you handy!
I just enjoy y'all so much, Derek's knowledge is amazing an with Jessica makes for a great time and being family friendly means a lot. Thank You for putting a quality product out. Know that you are appreciated.
Derek,you are truly fortunate to have a partner who is supportive and works with you. Your an amazing person Jessica.
If you can still make your wife laugh uncontrollably just by looking at them you are doing good in life. NEVER and I mean never change Derek and Jessica. I was subbed long before you became big but somehow I knew you were going to shoot off and be able to have a career out of it. By far my favorite channel and family to watch on KZhead. Can't wait to see more from Jessica, little grip garage and maybe from Bradley if he makes a channel for his rockets or whatever he wants to do. I'm disabled and can't support financially but by golly I will watch every video with ads because you guys deserve it. Thank you guys for your dedication and for the content and genuinely hope you guys are making content for a long time. Or at least till Derek gets his hand stuck in a muffler trying to change a battery.
Same here
I feel the same!
I too was subbed before big and after catching up on some videos I couldn't understand why VGG wasn't bigger. And coming from a non gear head I'm truly glad I stumbled on VGG.
Yeah, that line about "Vapour Locking" I lost it almost as much as Jessica....
@@chucks_88 I actually found him while searching for red green show and he reminds me a lot of red green, almost wonder if that's one of his inspirations. Also not gear head but it's always interesting to watch revivals. He's got that perfect balance of comedy and teaching which really draws a fella in.
You blessed people in no way owed us this, but, it's refreshing for "celebrities" to be so open and honest about their lives. I appreciate you Derek and the wonderful family that you have created. Keep up the good work and God bless.
Celebrities!
Well said! What keeps me interested in this channel is that the whole family is involved….vice grip garage, vice grip lodge and little grip garage. Fantabulous!!
Agree 👍 and I think people need to hear the real world decisions, the overheads/costs and the dedication/sacrifice it truly takes to be successful. Success in time for family and rhe truly important and dedication to build something financially. It takes time. Not every KZheadr is a millionaire and nothing happens over night. Well done team. Wish you all the best
@@hallmark2511Amen. The type the world needs more of.
Jessica would say they aren't celebrities, they are just normal people. Well that's what she said to me when I met her anyway lol
Out all the reasons you mentioned on why you moved, the most important thing that struck me was when you said you wanted to produce a show that will educate a person. Hollyweird has nothing to see worth anything. I never watch TV. My entertainment is youtube. I'm 73 and still learn stuff from you. You guys do a great job. Thanks a bunch.
love it! Live where it makes you happy. Hospitality happens in the south. I enjoy the content. You guys make it all worth the time spent watching. Enjoy the new home.
I can only imagine the amount of laughter you would experience being around Derek for an extended period of time. This dude is just naturally hilarious.
Very happy for you and the family Derek. Warmer weather and having some land can definitely do something for a fella or fellette. God bless you all!!!
This is a collab that needs to happen! Troy, I’ve been watching you for what feels like almost a decade. You and Derek would get along great!
Big fan of both channels. 🤙🤙🤙
Eating a T-Roy cooks potato soup while watching some VGG content. Surprised to see you here.
Derek I’m surprised you didn’t mention the allure of southern cooking!!!
@@rogerbloxham5381 I very unfortunately hadn't heard of T-ROY COOKS until right now. I'm checking it out. I musta been living under a rock.
Its wonderful to know that you can still find places to stay and roll up your sleaves and get to work building your life and let your hair down at the end of the day with family. Thats the old school way of family life. Give thanks, you two have been blessed🙏🏻❤️
Thanks guys. I appreciate the videos and enjoy them immensely. Enjoy your new digs!
The past 2 years have been unbelievably sad. Through it all, your content blessed us immeasurably. A literal escape from certain realities that at times, were just too much to bear. You guys always put family first. We are so proud of you!
Excatly
Find a fellowship thru 119 ministries Aviv fellowship finder Love you guy's in Yeshua messiah !
Love the family aspect; 26 years in the Navy ended up costing me 12 years of my kids' growing up I cannot get back. Y'all did the right thing.
You sacrificed SO much.
Thank you for your service brother USAF, 22 years.
Definitely one of the best channels on here! Great hosting with all the humor, a guy just can't watch enough in a day. Perfect. No. You should live where you want to, and sounds like you folks made the right choice for your family, which is key.
I absolutely can not get enough of your videos. Glad you are in Tennessee.
The US of A needs more people like Derrick and Jessica. God bless you and thank you for the top quality content!
That's the truth !!
Absolutely!
Glad things are working out for you. I'm 58 years old and a "little" behind in technology. Yours is the first subscription I ever made on KZhead. "Lightning hoses" is what hooked me. Lol. Anyway, don't forget to stop and smell the roses sometimes. We'll still be here. ~ Bear
He had me at calling sledgehammers “Tonya Hardings”. 😅
I have yet to figure out what tonya harding stands for 😂
@@toxicity4818 You must be very young. Back during the Winter Olympics in 1994 in Lillehammer Nancy Kerrigan was the “golden girl” expected to win gold in women’s figure skating. Tonya Harding was her chief rival, and surprisingly came from a trailer trash background. Tonya’s husband Jeff Gilooly and maybe another guy and most likely Tonya conspired to physically “take Nancy out” of the competition by attacking her during a practice or preliminary session. The method? Dude hit her in the knee with a small sledgehammer! This was the biggest news story in the world at the time. And in the US it was in the news for months.
@@mattskustomkreations Oh wow, thanks for the explanation. I didn't even think to google it, I had figured the TH just stood for something and he was just throwing a name out there, lol. Yeah, I'm 26, wasn't around to experience that.
@@toxicity4818 it was all anyone could talk about, had all the elements of a made-for-TV movie… which WAS made btw. Never saw it. She also had a ‘leaked’ honeymoon night video tape. Classy.
Can’t express enough how glad I am that I found your channel 2 weeks ago! Merry Christmas and happy new year to y’all. Thank you so much for all your time and effort!
Just found this channel, watch the restorations often. Y’all are so much fun to watch!
Raised my kids in the country, they claim they were feral children; all are super successful adults. Great channel, thanks.
möneyt is knöt löre -.-
I find it incredibly heartwarming that any entire family uprooted to move to a place where they could have a good family life and make as much content for us as possible. Thank you guys so much.
ok
So glad to have you folks down here in the South now! Love your content, and shows! WELCOME
My brother and I really enjoy watching what your mechanics and humor you bring. We can't wait for new roadworthy rescues. We are glued to the TV when you come on and glad you moved to Tennessee to give you more time for fun, family and antics. We hope your still showing and rescuing cars when your in your 80ies. God bless from Kentucky.
That Mrs Vice Grip is a keeper. Supportive, intelligent, thoughtful, good sense of humor. I hope to have a family half as nice some day. Congratulations on the move and the success! Thanks for all the laughs!
After watching this I sat down with the wifey and had her watch and we're looking at our future as well. You two are a true inspiration on what's important in life when you work together for all the right reasons. Much love, good luck and success in the future. One of the last life lessons my dad shared with me before he passed two years ago was " As long as you have your health everything else can be fixed"
Hi, you wrote it better than i, Exactly. Steven.
Your Dad was wise man, Dave. :) What you quoted is very true.
Exactly! Both mental and physical health
Visit Franklin Tn just 20 miles south of Nashville and you never want to leave. I'm a Tennessee native and grew up in Nashville, but Franklin is a much better environment for most people. Most of us only go to Nashville for a game or concert everything else is available in Franklin. I'm a realtor so I get to talk to lots of people from other states. Most come to visit and never leave.
So glad y'all came here. Love your channel. Big Love from Murfreesboro! ❤️
the move from Minnesota to Tennessee made sense and your shop is doing well and your channel is doing well which I am happy for you, I like your channel I like the content it's good clean family content, I hope the Lord continues to bless you and your family
I didn't think i could respect you guys more. I was wrong. The fact the numbers crunched in the right direction is the icing on the cake. You are family first, good hearted, respectful people. I love you guys. DANG IT!!!........Somebody snuck in here and started cutting onions.
The family vibe is the best thing about your channel. Family is important and I am glad that you guys have found a way to make it work. Keep up the great work you guys do
Love you Guys and your Boys.Thanks for being there for us all.
Ty so much for making all of the family friendly content. We are a family of five and we watch all the time. You guys rock! God bless!!
I am blown away and humbled by the fact that the majority of the reasons you moved was for the benefit of VGG. You guys are great. Every episode you make us feel like we're a part of your life and welcoming us to come along for the ride.Thank You for all you do. Happy International Womens Day, Jess!!!
Of coarse!! VGG is a pile of money...Lol
@@hemidart7 yes, but they worked their butts off to get it there. Go back to day one, and watch goofy Derrick learning how to do this. I'm quite impressed with his progress, and so proud of him for including his family and fans.
Because he makes money doing it!
So what is better than making money doing the thing that you love.
@@twinkie27271 I know that Capitan obvious....Been a sub. since the beginning Care to enlighten me with anymore of your brilliance
When you grew up on country air, and with plenty of green around you, even if you leave for a while, you’re never really “gone”. My Dad passed away in December, and I wound up moving back home to my grandparents place, an hour away from the city, where Dad had been living, and I FORGOT how nice rural life is - driving an old Ford truck up and down country roads on pleasant evenings or killing time in a country junkyard pulling parts? You can’t beat that. Happy for you!
Sorry to hear about that. Keep breathing that good country air.
Just looking up at all the stars at night is amazing. Rural people can see a thousand times more stars at night. Wow!
Sorry about your loss. There’s nothing like rural life and beach town life. I moved from a beach town to the city and man I miss home so much. Been looking at finding ways to get back there eventually. Downside is my parents want to retire from the beach and move to rural. Growing up is insanely tough sometimes. Anyway. Keep on truckin friend. And enjoy those rural roads when you can.
I randomly came across this KZhead channel and completely fell in love this is my favorite channel of all, I can’t get enough, thanks for all you do!
TN is a phenomenal place. So glad y'all chose it as your new home. I hope to return to it one day as well, I've never met so many car people as I did when I lived in East TN. Great people, great weather, more reasonable taxes, what's not to love?? Regardless, hope you guys are still enjoying it and it continues to be the place you want to call home.
You can definitely see the love and passion in Derek and Jessica's face!! they really do care about their fans! Some of the other KZheadrs need to take a step back and do the same
WHAT A SWEET HEART 😊
Can't get no better fine people and the move to Tennessee is a no brainer I never question reasons or motives as to why thay moved very smart.
I think they are brother/sister… look at the noses and cheeks
@@Workin_roadtrip SMH definitely not, Jessica is his wife
A coupla years back, I was finishing my basement in Stillwater MN during a polar vortex. -53 low temps. You could visibly see the progression of frost forming on the inside of our newly installed casements. The house went on the market three months later, and the wife, kids & I were on the road to TN two days after we closed :). Its so much better here!
Glad to have yall here, great job on the videos,
you and your family are amazing. glad tn worked better for you. will continue to watch and support anywhere you are. thanks for what you do!
Being from northern Minnesota myself it was great to have a "local" guy making so much great content but i can totally relate to the tax burdens in the state and the weather! 😆keep up the great work!

You know the internet and KZhead has a LOT wrong with it but seeing folks like this have success is worth watching it. I have a son and law and we are always talking about your content. We live in Arkansas. You can have all the cars you want....on blocks if you want. These folks should have a million subscribers. I hope they get filthy rich off this channel. And as one final note, the rural lifestyle is absolutely the best. Especially in this day and age. This whole restriction on property use is getting ridiculous and I think there will eventually be a back lash over it.
I just recently found your channel and have been binge watching your videos, love the content and your humor, cracks me up, and the way you handle every situation is amazing, your wife Jessica is just gorgeous and your kids are so cool, they will grow up to be awesome mechanics lol. You got a new subscriber here! I have been a motorhead all my life, had many hot rods and toys, but am getting older now and can't do what I used to do, so your a breath of fresh air to me and remind me of all the great times I had with all my past projects. Glad you made to move and feel it was the best decision for you and your beautiful family.
You Guy's are great! Thanks for what you do.❤
You gotta love how these two interact...they are talking as much to each other as they are to us. It's adorable. Don't tell anyone I said that word. And it's awesome that they would take the time to tell us why they moved. Like someone else said, they didn't have to do that, but that's just the type of people they are. Be sure to give 'em a like, they're definitely worth it.
When you talked about raising the kids on open land where they can play with the toys (go karts, mini bikes, etc.....), I was nodding my head saying yep, and having outdoor weather almost year round beautiful
All the best ! To you and your family. I hope you all do well, And things run smoothly in the new shop and home. I ❤ the show, from NZ
I've only been watching you for the couple of months and it's been great to watch your videos. I really love your interaction and because I've never had the car I wanted I enjoy watching you work on some of the ones that I would have loved to have. And it makes it even better that you're such a good family man. Keep up all the good work. And I definitely will be buying some of your merch.
I could always tell just from Derek’s demeanor, but this video confirmed that family values, love of cars and enjoyment of turning wrenches is at the heart of VGG! Not your typical KZheadr folks! Much love and prayers for your future success!
No job is worth sacrificing your family. The fact that you ranked your family first is all the fans need to appreciate how genuine and authentic you both are. Thanks for being so vulnerable and transparent about your personal lives. It just goes to show your big hearts and your appreciation for your fans. I cannot wait to see the next video. Keep them coming.
Congrats on the move! Sounds like you made the right decision. Super happy we get more content! I only discovered you guys after seeing the Motor Trend show. I’ve been watching every day since and I know I’m going to run out of videos soon. Lol Keep ‘em coming! Best show around!!!
I'm relatively new to your channel and spend way too much time watching, but I am learning a lot and really enjoy the "realness" of what you all do. In fact, I find it very motivational...so much so that I actually fixed my toilet yesterday after watching! Thanks for everything!
These 2 were meant to be together I can tell they have a great relationship and their kids are great kids too. That says a lot about them.
🙄 It's a show
Great relationship and good family. Tennessee is a fine place to be.
Y'all are arguably the best content creators on KZhead. The way you include your family and friends, and do hands on things in hopes to teach people is exactly what most of America is missing. Y'all are a diamond in the rough. God Bless you and your family!
Really enjoy your show, nice to see you an your family . Good luck in your new home-shop . Bless you
Thank you for being there for us
I'll be honest, I'm happy you guys were able to move where you wanted. My wife and I have noticed several times over the past few months that it appeared you "Derek" had a heavy load removed from your back. Your attitude in your videos have returned to the snappy lighthearted productions we loved when we got hooked on a guy a few years ago! Thanks, guys, for continuing to keep us entertained!
I can’t imagine how much work goes in to these channels so it’s heartwarming to hear you’ve made the change not only for the weather and the costs but because of the whole families quality of life. What a warm, genuine good ol’ fashioned lovely couple you guys are and what an amazing upbringing your boys are having. All the best from the U.K. Jon
Love your channel, your family and glad to have you here in the South. I live near Bristol, TN and two of my grown kids are around Nashville, so we're running in similar circles. Between the local beauty, natural habitat, decent weather and many opportunities within a few hours of almost everywhere, we're in an ideal place. I hope you are continually blessed and successful. Keep up the good work!
Derek, my wife and I have followed your exploits for ...well gosh a few years now and absolutely love the content that you and your family have put on here, we just moved from ABQ, to Pampa, Texas and love it, the people are so much nicer and I don't have to carry my gun all the time here..thank God! But I want to say thank you, having watched so much I feel like your a family member that I enjoy hanging out with. Best wishes for you guys ❤❤❤
Sounds like you’ve made the perfect decision, family and home life should always come first. Hope you guys are settling in and enjoying life .
Derek, I think you have such a jewel of a wife that helps and supports your dream. Look forward to more awesome content on Vice Grip Garage. Happy for you and your family for enjoying the change.
ok
ok
Good for you....great family, hope you are all very happy there!
The love you guys have is just so rare to see. And the commitment to the family is incredible. All the luck!
This is awesome. When a guy gets to see the family more and get more done. That’s a win win. I’m sure your channel is going to continue being just awesome!
Love your channel Derek and Jessica! I’m a car guy through and through and I find myself not being able to get enough of your content! I would love the chance to do a road trip with you, I think it would be a blast! I hope you guys grow this channel huge and your business.
We moved to Tennessee from Florida about 5 years ago and love it. Glad you are in this state, it’s excellent.
Congrats on a well thought out decision. Centralization, weather, no state income tax, relatively cheap acreage, lower cost of living and an anticipated reduction in work hours sounds like a winning combination for the family life. Be careful on the last one- it takes a change in mindset to reduce the number of hours devoted to the work thing. If a guy doesn’t prioritize the family hours, there is always more work to just suck up the time! Derek, the last sentence was me using some of your words to explain what I did way too much of while my kids were growing up. We don’t get that time back to try again.
My wife and I left Michigan for many of the same reasons, the biggest being the weather. It was Tennessee or Texas that we were looking at and Texas won out, we've been here for almost 13 years and have never regretted leaving the north. Enjoy your new home and no snotsickles
Born and raised in Detroit.. and I'm so tired of the salt and wind. I don't blame you one bit. I really want to buy a car that isn't immediately riddled with rust.
@@ChrisTallant my family all moved into NC from Wisconsin 5 years ago. Best decision we’ve ever made.
@@-Kreger- Be honest, do you miss the cheese?
@@ChrisTallant I still get back for Christmas. Load up with plenty then. Haha.
Love your content. Truly, thank you for all your hard work and commitment.
I just found you guys and I have to say that your family and your videos are the most wholesome and entertaining of all of the KZhead channels that I have found. Great job and great family! I also enjoy that this is a family channel.
I remember when you used to work in your driveway in the neighborhood thinking how out of place it was. It's been great to follow your journey and it's cool to see you're still growing.
I seriously loved this. People have pride issues when it comes to admitting these kinds of things. Gained even more respect for your channel. Keep it up, brother. Your hard work has inspired more than you could imagine
Recently found your channel and have watched several videos of you going and getting these cars running and getting them back to Tennessee. I could tell you have a northern accent. I’ve been in Tennessee for 54 years all my life. Love it here love what y’all are doing? Welcome to Tennessee. By the way !! The videos are hilarious and educational at the same time for me. on working on some of this old stuff & keeps me laughing thru a lot of the videos and it’s really hard to find something or someone Genuinely funny just out of someone’s personality on KZhead. In my opinion, it’s great man keep it up. Love it!!!
Y’all have the best channel. I watch it for hours on end! Glad you’re loving TN. My old stomping grounds. Anytime you’re in the North Atlanta area- Dacula, let us know. Love to show you my old cars!
You two deserve everything and more that comes your way, you both are so real down to earth folks, that entertain us and bring smiles to our faces, the true measure of a couple is there children if they have them, and your young men are stellar individuals that shine kinda like some of that fancy chrome stuff
fancy chrome stuff. LOL Yep, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Well said, they have some great young men.
Lived in Tennessee for 25 years, loved every minute of my time there. Always enjoy your interesting vocabulary and approach to repair challenges. You remind me of an uncle of mine who could take apart, fix, reassemble almost anything mechanical, Best of luck going forward.
I regret not being trained to fix vehicles, let alone having the strength to do so, and/or the money to do so, in my life. However, if I did drive, then at least I would have the common sense to choose the right people to fix the vehicle.
My family and I love living in Tennessee, so happy you are here, and yes I enjoy watching all of your videos, I have learned so much from you!
Thank you for all your hard work, I do enjoy going along with you on your adventures. Vermont is also harder to do projects in the cold. Thank you Jessica and Derek Mark
Hey Derek, without getting too personal, would you be able to do a quick story time on what you were doing before vice grip garage became a thing? It would be kind of cool to hear your backstory. Cheers from Canada Parker 🙌
i would like o hear that as well!
Yes, awesome idea
He's Loretta Lynn's grandson. Coal miner at heart ❤️
I’m retired here in Minnesota. I’ve lived here all my life. I’ll be 72 years old in June. Every Winter for the last several years I’ve spent months in isolation within the walls of this house. It usually starts toward the end of November and ends around the second week in May. I’m not married however I have one son that lives 1/4 mile away. I get to see him often. My daughter lives in Coon Rapids. When I was younger I chose factory jobs to avoid working in the cold. However I would spend time off in the winter snowmobiling, skiing, ice skating and ice fishing. Now my disabilities don’t allow for those things. I’d love to go out to the garage and work on my old Chevy, but it’s such a small dark uninviting place to be in the Winter that I avoid it. My dream, before I pass on to the great junkyard in the sky would be to walk outside sometime during the month of February in a t-shirt and jeans and my new balance shoes and feel free from the heavy coat, gloves, felt lined boots, stocking cap, insulated bib overalls, wool socks and long Jon’s. God bless the Bieris and May they live long and prosper in all they do!
Mike G. Move to Florida. Live the rest of your life in shorts and a T shirt !
Love your channel. I was a mechanic for 16 years of my life, had my own garage once. Wish you all the best in TN.
I love watching your videos. Derrick you’re such a dork, but fun to watch and that’s what makes it entertaining. Please don’t change. I’d love to meet you. Your revival videos are my favorite
WE LOVE YOU AND THE FAMILY HERE ON VGG!!!!!! You guys didn’t owe us an explanation as to why you moved, but I can say I’m so thankful it has granted you guys so much more!!!! You work so hard and you deserve a break. The content is amazing
I've criss-crossed the country as first a rig welder and now an inspector. I don't think you could have made a better choice. Also, I found the people in Tennessee to be so friendly and helpful. Love all your channels, you guys are real people, and I'm looking forward to meeting you all one day!
As a country Minnesota boy, I am so happy to find this channel! Love the content and appreciate the knowledge I gain over sometimes silly videos. Keep it up, you have a loyal follower here!
I’m glad you found a place to call home and you can do what you guys do best for your family!! Keep on keepin on.
The most likable people on my iPad. Also, I love how Derek knows everything, and when all goes to crap he doesn’t get angry. Thanks for the awesome videos
Or when he does get angry they edit that out, maybe? .
The magic of editing. Sorry, the magicalness of editilating..
You guys are worth a zillion to me. For a women I've learned so much and grateful because I'm now interested in the outs of a vehicle now that I'm older. I love seeing the whole family involved including your friends.
I always enjoy watching your videos! And I’m happy that you get to see and enjoy your family. To important at this time to be able to be there for them
Best show. Both of you are great. Family first. Most of all learning more and FUN. To watch. Never stop, never stopping!
As someone who originally lived in Wis and now lives in TN, these reasons all track. I was living in Upstate NY at the time, and the cost of living was even more than WI and the weather was about the same. With the better cost of living, weather, centrally located for doing my business, TN looked very nice to move to. I keep thinking about moving back to WI for family, but then I look at the cost and snow and remember why I'm in TN. So, no, I am not surprised at all. Welcome to TN!
Yeah I'm from Ann arbor, and live north of Knoxville. Lol the no snow is probably top of the list 🤣 Yeah property taxes are a joke and the cola is nice
I’m not surprised he didn’t say anything about that garbage Democratic governor because he’d probably get demonetized by KZhead but that’s the main reason Wisconsin sucks. Of corse there’s a tax on everything democrats love their taxes but swear they are for the middle class. Crazy how the middle class suffers the most under democratic leadership and yet still people vote for them.
Quite possibly the most wholesome channel on youtube. A true inspiration for fellow parents. And people in general. You guys are really amazing. My wife and I watch everything. And so does our 18 month old. Honestly I feel at times like Derrick and i are kindred spirits. If more people were like you i think America just might be a better place. Hopefully we get the opportunity to meet someday. Living in indiana currently i cant wait to get back to Tampa bay. And maybe see you at the track. Keep doing what you do. And what you reap will continue to be what you have sewn. And remember. Mind open, heart enlarged, soul receptive. Mahalo my friends
Love your content, from someone who has lived & breathed cars all of my working life and having a grown up family let me tell you, you are making the absolute best decision here, make as much time for your kids as you can because in the blink of an eye they're gone and even though that in it's self becomes a delight with grandchildren etc it's easy to regreat not spending time & enjoying family life.
Definitely the most wholesome channel on KZhead. Wish you guys all of the best with everything you do - it's always a pleasure seeing the harmony and love you have as a family. Too rare these days.
You saved my life you have no idea what I was going through with this stay home pandemic.I watched your videos and it was like I was fixing cars with you.God bless you and your family stay safe.
I hear that!
I had 6 surgeries last year and watched VGG on my laptop in my rooms. I even started referring to myself as "a guy" which none of the doctors/nurses understood. I would tell the "A guy could use some pain medicine" and they looked at me like I had a toad's head. VGG made time pass by quickly; a good thing at that point in my life.
