Hello. I came home from work one day shortly after my son had began to learn to drive and found a pair of skid marks in my driveway that went up short of my project Vanagon and the rear bumper was a bit more tweaked than usual. I later found after intense interrogation that my son had been receiving driving instructions from my wife in my other daily driver Vanagon and had chose the accelerator pedal instead of the brake pedal until it was too late to properly stop. It is only a van. It is only a van. It is only a van. Who am I kidding. My Vanagon is my mistress! Ron P.

With my oldest daughter rapidly approaching driving age, I'm wondering how many listmembers let their kids drive their vans. I don't think I could bring myself to it, but I am curious if anyone else is this trusting. Roger Van Till '89 Westy "The Moose Lounge" |
