What’s up guys, It’s July 15th, 2024. Here’s another VLOG from my official YouTube. Don’t forget to enjoy my latest videogames livestreams. I know YouTube makes it difficult to watch them on TV with the YouTube app, and I know someone is doing that on purpose. Soon I will livestream on Twitch again, but it’s important to be on YouTube, simply because there are a lot of places around the world that do not have a Twitch account. I was Twitter-famous, someday I’ll be BLUESKY & MASTODON-famous, and someday I’ll be YouTube & Twitch famous. Let’s hope that it does. Enough chatters online means I’ll finally be able to purchase my first new car, preferably a German Engineering Sports Wagon full-size sedan. The Audi RS6 Avant GT is soon available, the BMW M5 Touring won’t be here for months, someday we have to convince Audi to bring the RS5 Avant and the RS4 Avant to USA, and BMW to bring the BMW M3 Touring & M4 Touring to USA. In the meanwhile, I have to save the VW CEO from either Germany or USA, it seems to be held hostage because the Golf R Wagon, the Passat R Wagon, the Arteon R Wagon, including BLACK EDITION are all missing, including from North America. Even worst, the ID.X Performance is not ready, and the ID.RS (introduce RS to the VW Family) is not ready either. Tell Performance VW magazine to make it cheaper to USA fans. That’s a really expensive magazine for USA audiences. Thanks in advance.
