It's the "coolness factor" of having a dash that looks like a cockpit. Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM]On Behalf Of Jim Thompson Sent: Saturday, November 20, 2004 10:04 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: Inline Fuel Temp?
I second that question. After scratching my head a couple of days after reading the initial post, I called my brother who happens to be into high performance Chevies and such, posed the same inquiry from the original post to him. He responded "What in the world......?" Don't we have enough "worry gauges" in our beloved machines already? Kinda reminds me of an acquaintance of mine with the 68 VW CrewCab with 4 Pyrometer Gauges (one on each exhaust port pipe), Oil Temp Gauge, 4 Cylinder Temp Gauges (1 for each dedicated cylinder/temp sensor), Tachometer, Oil Pressure Gauge, Fuel Pressure Gauge, Ammeter, Voltmeter, Altitude Gauge, Outside Temp Gauge, GPS, etc.. Front Cab looks like an aircraft cockpit. And all he's running is a 1776 w/Dual Webers. Oh yeah, it's a daily driver 2 miles to work and back everyday, takes it on a long trip once a year.
