There is a VW dealer in Rapid City, but -- given the experience some listees
have had with some VW dealers -- that may not necessarily be a source of
comfort.  I have no personal experience with them.

BTW, we did the same trip last year, plus Yellowstone & the Tetons, in our
'87 Weekender (which performed flawlessly).  If you get the chance, I highly
recommend the Buffalo Bill Historical Center in Cody.
