I disagree with the non-rigid theory. If the Vanagon had a piece of 4" water pipe filled with concrete bolted to the rear or front of it and got smacked, or smacked one of the new world collapsable toilets that are motoring about today, I guarantee that the Chevy Corsica, Ford Focus, or whatever junk that has just messed with you would lose, and you would be just dusting off your bumper, and moseying down the road. The Vanagon isn't made out of tissue paper like the late model garbage, and a solid bumper(s) would stop a lot of geeks, attempting to damage your baby. ______________ |[ ] [ ] [ ]\ | | | | ||-(())----(())-| Terry 85 GL |
