Look in near the bottom right hand corner. We had this discussion before. I have a copy of the official New Bus press kit. If anyoone wants a copy pmail. I can send you a copy for the cost of popping them out plus postage.

<< A few weeks ago someone complained that the Mercedes/Freightliner Sprinter looked like a "typical delivery van" or words to that effect. What does he think the VW Microbuses, Vanagons and Eurovans are? >>

Don't you dare even compare my VANus de Milo with those awful looking FrightLiners. They look like overgrown Eurovans. Besides, I chant afferd it.
