Hmmm...  I live in a town with pop. of 225K.  I think I've met all the
Vanagon owners.  All five of them.

Face it.  Not everyone is as cool as we are.  Besides, it's part of the
appeal.  You don't see yourself at every intersection.

I guess everyone else is waiting for VW to come up with a 'New Vanagon',
kind of like the 'New Beetle.'

Last month I drove my 86 from El Paso, TX to Northwestern MO and back.
About 2500 miles total.  I saw one Vanagon the entire trip.  It was a white
86 or newer adventurewagon on Hwy 54 between El Paso, TX and Alamagordo, NM.

No other VW buses of any year and only 2 beetles spotted.

At a gas station in Topeka, KS I was asked if that was really a Volkswagon.

Maybe some of us are just getting too old.
