Subject:      While talking to a New Beetle owner...
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

The sales office I work in had some product training today, bringing in folks from all over the Northeast. The receptionist comes up to my office with a guy from our North Jersey office, telling me he wants to talk to the guy with the bus. Great! Another VW fan. Always willing.

We trade VW stories and generally shoot the breeze. At one point, while I'm espousing the virtues of Vanagons and the neat list I happen to belong to, this guy just shakes his head and says the following:

"What is it with you bus guys? How the heck can you drive anything with the drag coefficient of a zeppelin hanger?"

Made me laugh...
