"I’d Shave My Head!" | Derek Bieri Interview | PEAK Auto 

I worked with Derek on an episode of Roadworthy Rescues. He is every bit the kind, caring, funny guy off screen as he is on screen. And he is an excellent mechanic! Good taste in music too.

My favourite saying is "we'll just pretend we didn't see that". Great guy, great shows.

Who doesn't LOVE Derek??? We all do! Great guy, Great Famiy.

I found Derek way back in the early days. I think he had about 20k subs back then. I've stuck with him cos he is simply the best car guy on RU-vid. He doesn't take himself too serious, he's funny, a decent family man, he's a damn fine mechanic and just properly entertaining. I'm so glad to have found him back in the early days and I love to see him get the sucess he deserves. Top man. The world needs more fellas like this fella and I aint kiddin ya.

I am Canadian, and watched every episode of the Red Green Show. That's the vibe I got from Derek the first time I watched and I haven't stopped watching. Still scouring the RU-vids here to find as much content he's involved with as possible. I can not get enough of VGG!

Derek is who I want to be when I grow up... I now choose Peak products every time because they understand who to sponsor. Nice job Peak, this guy is a real national treasure.

Loves his family, people, and animals. Right back at you, big guy.

Growing up on the Red Green Show. That explains a lot! Don’t change a thing, Derek!

Derek Bieri--The man- the myth- and soon to be the legend--Love that guy !!!

i love this guy. ....great show. sometimes he hits that perfect line like "the grass isn't going to grow here for a long time" ...."i found this bottle of juice, i don't know what this is, it doesn't smell like antifreeze , i think it's some kind of bug spray"....hinting that he used it in the radiator, with perfect dead pan, looking at the camera . i laughed so hard .... been there, done that, myself! awesome !👍

Huge respect for Derek!

Everyone loves the red green show it was awesome 👌

Well I’ll be Dipped, we’re so blessed to have great content from Derek be it with VGG , Peak , VGL or in the aisle with Derek . Cheers 🇨🇦

What a great great way to see and hear Derek. Always a good time and interesting conversation when he is involved. Thank you very much.

Does anyone remember when Derek used to have his glass of "tea'...😉😉 all the time when he was doing his videos back in the day in the garage.

Folks just love that feller and his family. That's the key to success.

Steve Smith - just when I thought I couldn’t like you more. Thanks for everything you do!

Derek I've been watching you since Covid hit. I haven't laughed and cried, yelled at your detractors and prayed for you to be a success for anyone else as much as I have for ya'll. You're a great fella to watch and I'm so glad you're doing what you love most and not a lot of folks out there can say that much about themselves. I reckon your family are amazing too. All the best and thanks for sharing. From a bloke down under, keep on truckin.....🤗

I got sick and was able to watch back-to-back RR and it was the best medicine I could’ve taken.

You said, "Red Green show. You had me. I am totally American. I've never been to Canada, but I love the show. 👍.. Thank God for what we have.

I didn’t believe that there was such a good roll model left in the world “but I guess I got to I see one in you every week”. Keep up the good work! And thank you!

Shout out to Red Green hell yeah awesome

Great videos Derek, we all enjoy you, your humor and family

I just love this show! Derek and his wonderful family make his channel a family favorite!❤

Oh we need more of these!

My dad used to say "Well, I'll be dipped" a lot. He was born in the 40s. So, it's funny hearing it again. Love this channel. Derek is great.

Chief Vice Grip!!!! Need a plaid suit! Thanks for sharing. I’ve had a rough 3 years or so and being able to watch your videos when I was not able to do much physically helped me get through some really bad days. I love the humorous content and definitely see a bit of Red Green in you with the plaid shirts, non-standard fixes, and good natured laughs. I am sure glad RU-vid promoted your videos… they were a light in my darkest time. Cheers!

Awesome content.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

Derek is just himself and that's why so many people love the guy. #Vicegripgarage

Thanks for sharing! 😊

Remember when I found VGG channel. Watched one video and was like y'all I have to watch more and binged on ever video a guy had out there and been hooked ever since. Thank y'all for all the great content over the years and wishing y'all a blessed day.

That was fun and very enjoyable, thanks!

I enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing.

BLESSED, love to hear you say that!

Gotta love VGG. Thanks fot supporting Derer Peak

Before I started my channel was still working at Boeing up in Seattle. I was told to pull up RU-vid on a marine question I had and found Stu Dangar's channel actually Steward Allen. I thought the same hey I can do that, and the rest is history. I love doing what I love being retired and sharing that with folks looking for help on their projects. When I found Derek's channel it reminded me on my younger days working on classic cars. Great funny guy and family man.

Great interview- totally honest, engaging, and REAL.

Derek that was amazing great job im a huge fan of your channel and always look forward to the next episode

Get after it Derek securing your family's future....bless you and your family love ya.....love watching 👀 all your videos....

I’m a mechanic and love watching VGG ltittle VGG. Anything he is in is very much worth dropping everything for and to peak you have yourself the best spokesperson ever

Impossible not to like this man. Great content. Helped get me through the vid times.

Nice that's all the motivation I needed to get out of here and keep messing with these cars sometimes you got to be a jack of all trades keep it coming

I think all our grandpas said that. My grampa's saying was 'Well, I'll be g*d-da**ed', but I'll be dipped was his go to family friendly saying. He was a farmer at heart even as an elderly man. He was working on the green chain of a sawmill at 75 years old, full time. My dad was the sawyer on that sawmill.

I ran into Derek when he was at Bradenton last February in an auto parts store parking lot with Jessica and his friends. I couldn’t believe it. I went over to them and said hello and he was very gracious to take a minute to say hello and snap a picture I’m a super Faithful fan and love his whole family. Been in the car business all my life and I learn a lot from watching him do his thing on RU-vid. Thnks for the entertainment. Keep it up.

That was fun ride. Great way to do an interview. Dig it

You are a prime example of what future you tubers should act like (BE YOURSELF) not adding extra drama to your content to make your self look better than you are, and i will say it again (BE YOURSELF). Also great advice to the young people (SLOW DOWN) if they will take it. BLESS DEREK AND HIS FAMILY

Derek thoroughly deserves every single bit of success. Genuine guy, awesome family.... legendary content!

Derek, you “are” great on camera because you’re totally yourself which is the best acting of all. Your earnest performance shines through which is why we enjoy your production so much. Thanks for sharing with us. You’re pretty much the only tv i watch anymore and I think there’s a lot of us. Lol

when i started watching VGG years ago, i knew id like derek because hes funny and hes from the midwest. The midwest turns out really good people that know how to work hard and are genuine.

Thanks for telling us about yourself. Respect for being a great mechanic but huge RESPECT for being an awesome family man. It’s obvious that your family loves you. Peace brother ✌🏼 PS don’t get too big and stick with what got ya here.

Another good one 👍👍

Great video.always .a guy with class an brains. Hard to beat .I don't think we did but it feels like we came out of the same womb.

Love the down to earth quality of this video, Thanks for sharing some moments out of your busy schedule, VGG fan for life. Didn't know Derek also played Piano !, Demo Please !

I absolutely love Derek's channels. I have an old car and I'm not much of a mechanic. I learn some tidbits of information that I can carry over to my '32 Ford Sedan. Thanks, Derek!!

Love my dirt bikes and I've spotted your Austrian ones in the background. Don't forget to take some time for trail riding with the kiddos. Great memories there for me and I've seen 3 generations trail riding together. It's pretty awesome. TN looks like it has some decent trail opportunities.

Derek you are awesome you always make every video fun, I was never in to cars till I started watching you and seeing how you have the passion and fun it can be to work on cars,

Growing up watching Red Green. That, sir, explains a lot! In fact, that explains it all. Love it.

Yep, in a Nutshell....still more to Come out of this guy, that Midwest upbringing IMHO Love the Show, just be YOU as you have been... GENUINE

Been watching a long time...I'd say the moment he "collabed" with Cleetus so many doors opened for him , and it's been an amazing ride for all of us.....

That was great. Thanks Derek . I always thought you were a vet and have always been curious about it. Thanks for your service too as well as all the fantastic content

I remember the first video of yours I ever watched.. my thought was "This guy reminds me of Red Green". Awesome!!

Moses… that’s exactly the answers I thought I would hear 🇺🇸. Keep pushing!

Do what you love and you'll love what you do. Why watching Derek is an instant good mood!

That's good to hear that Derek

That’s funny and awesome you mention the red green show , I’ve been saying you remind me of him since I started watching your videos years ago ❤

Hey Derek Thanks for all the entertainment I just want to wish you all the best to you and your family for Christmas God bless take care 👍👍👍👍

Good job Peak. You picked the right feller to sponsor! What an amazing man

Back in the day I did a search for Vintage Racecars and found Derek when he just bought the vintage modified. I have been enjoying the Humor and information ever since! If Derek were to show up at my place to buy a car, I am pretty sure we would get along very well. Best of Luck and Skill going Forward.

I started watching Derek because he reminds me of a friend they, are about the same size and had beards in 7 grade both great guys. Thanks Derek.

Down to earth and an awesome fella I tell you I wouldn't believe ya but I'm lookin right at it... Been along for the ride for a while now to the point I've been re watching older videos and I tell you fella if I were to ever get the chance I'd buy you a cold snack or two. Grew up with my grand PA in the shop he built hot rods and learned alot from him but I've learned even more from you on how to get old rigs back on the road and with the route the world is going with ev being pushed so hard it's more important then ever.. Need to get me something pre smog (I'm in commiefornia unfortunately want out but my wife and kids are making it difficult to do so)

thanks for the gift bag and thanks for the holiday card. may you and you family have a blessed Christmas and new years.

So nice to get a bit of background on The Man! Thanks

What a Guy!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!! Love ya bro!

My first car was a 74 Duster! It's funny , could be a price of scrap but you are so proud of it. Lol. I love you're down to earth personality. Your family ehics. Keep up the good work.

This fella is a legend . Quality American gettin' er' done . Thx #Peak & Derek

I've had a real itch to put together a small block chevy on the cheap to blow my neighbor's doors off. Derek won me over with that one and it's been a good time ever since. :)

Awesome video Derek you are a great Dad and family man. What better of a hobby could you have than your family Awesome 🤠🤠🤠❤️❤️❤️

The Red Green Show is an absolute classic. Used to watch it often on PBS in the 90s

Peak, if you know want some advice. Fully support this man & ride his coattails. He’s the best RU-vidr out there. I said what I said.

Red Green! That answers a lot of why I like your show. Oh the humanity! You keep your stick on the ice even in Tennessee. 😃

Derek you are doing Great 👍 And very impressive with all you do Thanx for Sharing your thoughts 👍 Have a Great Day 👍 God Bless You and your Family 🙏👪

The Red Green Show! That explains so much. Now, whenever I watch his videos, I’ll see and hear Red Green.

that guy is one of a kind!!

I use “I’ll be dipped” all the time lol . My favourite you tube channel

Derek is just real. What ya see is what ya get and this is why it works so well.

Another great Derek moment
