In 1990 my wife bought an Acura Legend and I bought a vanagon. The
Acura has about 130K miles on it, and it's on its third engine. The VW
has 190K miles on it and the engine's never been opened.


I haven't driven anything but a diesel westy or a gas Carat for the
last 14 years. I'm sure there are many others on the list who have done
many more Vanagon miles than I have.


So what's the hats off for?


Jim
