Subject:      Why I Love My - MULTIVAN -  Westy
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

My '85 Westy, Mexicali Rose, was made in Germany
& is designated a Multivan.  I searched long & hard
to find this spacious model without the built-in sink/stove.

For serious, long term camping/travel in warm dry climates
I've found nothing beats a Multivan.  I much prefer setting
up my little kitchen outside under my Kelty Sunshade.
And with my pair of portable 1 lb. propane tanks, which
fit easily under the jump seat behind the driver, I can carry
my portable propane stove & tank right down to the
ocean's edge to cook & eat fresh-caught sea food!

With my bed up top, the "downstairs" living room, with it's
flip-up table, is as cozy as an old fashioned private rail car,
complete with flowers, books, & maps.  Those rare times
when a downpour prevails, I just set up my stove inside.
I just love having all the flexible space of a Multivan interior.
