I just had a thought, fellow Vanagoneers. I know we all love our buses and this seems like a slap-in-the-face from Mr. Click and Mr. Clack. What do ya say we all send them email and tell them how we feel. I really am not trying to be vengeful, but the bus they showed on the website (very cool-looking Splittie) is probably worth more than all the other nine cars shown in their survey put together when they were new. The bus shown is also worth more and far more collectable today than a lot of cars on the road. Anyway, if you go to the link to the Car-Talk Worst-Car site shown below and click on the "talk back and chat" tab and then click on "Dear Click and Clack" I bet we could probably get a rise out of them. Course we'd probably fill up their inbox in a couple minutes. What say those who are with me let's do it at 10:00 tonite and see what happens. Maybe they'd print a retraction or maybe they'd try to find more about why our buses ar so cool and we spend so much time working to keep these old relics running. If VWoA was smart they'd continue to make parts for all years of VW buses and make millions. Course, who said anyone at VWoA is that smart. Well, here goes.......Rodney
