Vanguard Etf

Are Vanguards Mutual Funds a great investment?
I have the VTI ETF and it seems like a great investment to me. I am thinking about investing in a Mutual Fund but ETFs seem more better because you have more control over them. What is your opinion?
There is nothing good about mutual funds. They claim to be great long term diversified investments. The reason they claim long term is it will take you a long term to recover your losses from dollar cost averaging.
Stick with your ETF’s, at least you can trade in and out with out getting penalized.
