same here. So many of these channels open up with loud music, then the speaking voice is much quieter than the opening music too. I like just natural sounds during the video that's trying to tell us something. It is different if there is no speaking going on. If there is no speaking going on, then some music is nice, but natural sound should still be present and and heard even if there is music. Too many of these videos have music when I'm certain there is natural sound, and they remove the natural sound. If there is speaking and you still want music, then the music should be at about half the volume level of the speaking voice (as a rule of thumb).

@@troy3456789 I totally agree with you Robert! I don't see the point in dubbing over natural sound. I do my best to convey my content clearly and I find background musing distracting.

You are also correct that there are sections in videos that will require some background music but natural sound makes it really authentic! Thanks for tuning in! =)

If you look at it when you go to close the center console right where the clip lines up there is an indent where the top of the console meets the bin and a cable can slip through.

By holding the lock button and simultaneously hitting the unlock button once on the key fob you can shut off the touch unlocking and locking of the taco. You can turn it on again by tapping any button on the fob. This can be useful as an anti theft measure or to save battery on the fob.

When you push the traction off button it doesn't turn it completely off. You need to press and hold it for 3 seconds and a light will come on the dash and it will be completely off.

The clip in the center console, I believe it is for a seatbelt cutter (or knife as a seatbelt cutter) as that would be the best and easy place to reach out to in case of accident or car getting toppled. I wish I could post a picture of my seatbelt cutter installed there. It fits perfectly!!
