<P>Must be different here. Every winter when we ski the back country on Loveland pass we have at least 2 or 3 people come over and ask for rolling paper ect. You are right though now that I think about it. Most of the Vanagons here (not all!) are in pretty rough shape. Not exactly middle/upper class looking vehicles. Lots of hippie wanna be's here in Boulder you know! I've seen a few vans when I have been in Calif. Man you guys have the $$. Slowly getting mine there! Mine is in really good shape though.</P>
