Robert--

Yea your rich alright----just like the rest of us--up to our neck in vanagon parts receipts--real rich----

Priced parts for any late model stuff lately? A new Denali air shock is 500.00---

For a real laugh---try checking out Benz, or BMW stuff---

A BMW 750IL 4 corner suspension replacement is $7500.00---

So yea, the Vanagon's are a bargain in comparison----but not in any way, shape, or form, cheap----

If this guy is worried about tire prices, and availablity---I'd say--hang it up---right from the get go--

Later,

Terry

Well- I guess that makes me rich! Of course, I do all my own maintenance so right there I'm saving more than half the cost of owning a Vanagon. Priced Honda parts lately?

Pretty much rule of thumb--if the vehicle says----" Made In Deutschland" the price for parts is triple of what you may be accustom to-- Later, Terry E-mail message----- As a person with very limited funds to spend for a vehicle purchase, I don't want to waste my money if the tires or other parts are not readily available.
