What's so great about...
I've heard great things about VR4's but I can't quite tell why they have fans and lots of people flocking to see them. Convince me.

I didn't say the volks ads were great, but some of those mits ads make me want to throw my TV out in anger.

I kinda like some of the Volks commercials. Like the one with the shopping cart. I'd do that.

Picking up an old stinky chair was bad enough, but using a drumstick in a bowl of chip dip as a stick shift was just too much for me. Those are the kind of "drivers wanted"??????

Is your name Clark? Mine is too.

I like the one with the shopping cart as well, makes me laugh because it's very close to reality.
