It is very possible. The ultra low miles vehicle isn't just a myth. I got my '81 Westy from my sister. She got it in '86 from the original owner (with 70k miles on the clock) and added only a bit over 7k miles from then until I bought it in '96. If she had bought it new it would have had about 15,000 mules on it. Also, 4 years ago I bought a Ford conversion van from a friend who had owned it since new, so I knew the history. It is an '85, and had 32,000 miles on it when I bought it in '98. It is all the way up to 40,000 now. Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: "Loren A.
