EXACTLY! I dont look a gift horse in the mouth. WHat do these babies want...GO WESTY! prices? Ill wait. There needs to be a list rule prohibiting any bitchin about Bus Depot service. Germans dont have to make vanagon parts anymore, its not cost efective for them. And vanagons get demolished at the junk yard everyday where else are we going to get parts!!!
