    How can someone not subscribe to this channel after seeing Donald in his fancy-pattern summer shorts, matching bow tie, blue-green calf socks and purple top-side shoes? I love it!

    Donald's fashion sense compliments his marvelously eloquent and charismatic style; affording a sophisticated aura of academia to all things automobile. Were he not in this world, he'd undoubtedly be that ivy-league English professor that gave us a love of words.

    I thought you were going to show a Fiat Jolly. I was just at the California Automobile Museum, where they have a Beach Jeep. It's an unmodified WWII model, but painted pink, with a pink and white stripped awning. It made me smile.

    I so wanted to hop into the Jeep and take it to Second Beach! My parents had a 1981 CJ-7 with same powertrain. So fun to drive, no matter the weather.

    I grew up just south of San Francisco and recall those VW utility trucks growing up used by gardeners for the city. They were this light gray-green color. There are basically larger version of these in see now used by landscape companies. I don’t know who makes them but the design is the same.

    Great video, Thank you so much. I am not 100% confident, but I believe the cyclops light was used on European First Responder vehicles. BYW, great outfit in the intro! 😀

    What a fun episode. I also learned to drive a proper transmission on a beetle, a lesson I'll never forget.

    A convertible Jeepster might be a better choice than a CJ for the beach.

    Bermuda shorts and a bowtie? THAT'S a fashion statement.

    I love the roof mounted headlamp in the Type two VW is amongst the coolest thing ever vehicle wise.

    In 1989 I bought a yellow '75 Jeep, had the 304 4bbl 3sp with no top, no doors, no seatbelts, 33 inch swampers, front winch & just lots of weekend fun going thru the woods & mud holes here in Georgia! When I was a 10 yr old kid I got a new green '75 Honda Trail 70 just like the one behind the VW Transporter ✌💖☮

    Agreed with Donald’s proper use of words and his overall presentation. Sorry to be picky on his guest, but he used far too many “you know’s” when he spoke. Often, it’s just a case of nervousness in front of a camera, or searching but not able to think of a better way to express something.
    The vehicles were great; we own a 2019 Wrangler S Unlimited, a great vehicle, only 10K miles since bought new 8/2019.

    It's cool that the expanding width of off-road vehicles opened up a new market for side by sides etc. If it won't fit down the trail it's entirely useless. Most trails I see are too narrow for any modern full-size vehicles, just side by sides, quads or bikes. I think trying to be wide in order to look cool as a road vehicle was a mistake that as I said lost them a chunk of the market.

    I worked at a Renault dealership back in the late 70s. They made a car called a Jolly that had wicker seats. What it was doing in New Hampshire, I have no clue!

    1. Ok to not wear a seatbelt.
    2. Good car to learn how to shift in case you hit something.
    Please accept that after your years of hard work you’re no longer on the fringes as you once were. What is said on your channel reflects directly on you, even if said by someone else. You missed the ball on this one. Not a career ending gaffe, just a bit of negative feedback to guide you to “unalloyed” greater success. ❤

    I’ve only been following you a few days, did somebody ask you to cover this topic recently? I only ask because I have wealthy stalkers and they like to playback topics that they take from me in my apartment. #funtimes

    Look at that outfit! The shorts! Socks ! How dapper is he.

    Lost me at you can drive the Jeep with or without seatbelts. Not the right message to put out there. That being said, I had a 2004 Jeep TJ and moved on from that to an '07 FJ Cruiser..... night and day. The Toyota blew away the Jeep.

    992 targa 4 gts or a Rolls Royce Dawn definitely sit at the top of my beach car list.

    Okay, not to be improper, but they straight *'d up that Bugatti. I don't understand why the more money you have the more you get compelled to put obscene color combinations together. Now that Jeep.... 😊
