> Then don't come to the rural south. don't worry... wasn't planning on it ;) ...please take that as the joke it is... The best wave I ever got was the first wave I ever got. It was the first time I ever drove a vanagon, it was a friends van and we'd just traded drivers at the entrance to Jousha Tree NP. One minute into the park a van came towards me and the driver raised both hands slightly above the certianing wheel and gve me a double wave... fourtuantly it was on a rare very straight stretch of road. That one drive is what sold me on vanagons and 6 weeks later I owned my one and only :)
