Driving a Vanagon?  Heck, no.  Now driving our '70s breadloaf westy
with hemp stickers on the back was another matter.  Especially when
we pulled off the freeway in South Dakota to photograph ourselves in
front of a large billboard that read, "ONE WAY OR ANOTHER... DRUGS
WILL GET YOU!"


I've always thought of the Vanagon as a pretty "straight" vehicle.
Maybe things are different in Colorado?
