:::-----Original Message----- :::From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM] On Behalf :::Of Tom Forhan :::Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 12:14 PM :::To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM :::Subject: Re: teenagers and vanagons <snip> ::: :::After he got his license in the MCS, we started on the :::Syncro Westfalia. Hard to imagine a vehicle more :::different: learning to drive using momentum, planning :::ahead, way tall, no abs, probably a hp/weight ratio a :::quarter of the Cooper. He was very dubious, but after :::a few miles around town he started to get the feel of :::it, and after about an hour he looked over at me and :::said "I can't believe it - this thing is fun!" LOL! That's how I feel every time I switch from my Prius back to my (manual) vanagon!
