How important is the volume of an ETF when it comes to liquidity?

I’ve been pouring money into an ETF every week and letting it slowly compound and I plan on continuing this until I’m at retirement age, at which time I’ll start to pull out and sell when my position has grown to a large amount.

But I’m wondering how important the volume is of a particular ETF when it comes to whether or not I can sell it in large amounts years from now? I’ve read that with high performing ETFs like ones that follow the S&P500 for example like the one I am investing in, it doesn’t matter as much with how much volume the ETF itself has, but more so that of the individual securities built into that ETF.

How much truth is there to that?

With having an average daily trading volume of around 160k, would the ETF I’m referring to (VFV) be a good one for me to go all-in on long term?

Any advice is appreciated as I’m still fairly new to the game.
