Could this be true?? I am poised to own a nice doublecab and here they
are getting butchered???

I know there's already a lot of discussion on this in the archives, but
I could never quite get  a straight answer on it.

To make these Vanagons comply with  DOT what would be needed?? Change
all the glass and lights?? If that's all, then I should think that it
might be possible. Reinforce the door for side impact protection??

Or do they need us to crash them straight into an offset wall???
Vanagon funerals by the crash test dummy site...
