Well, they will at least hold their value.  There is no affordable van
camper available now.  When gas hits $6 or more, then there will be a switch
from the mega RVs to something more sensible, like in other places around
the world:  http://youtube.com/watch?v=zNwb81gEVZY

The "California" name is a poke at us.  We'd rather have the 42' motor home
here.  Maybe the economics will change.

I wish I'd kept my '84 Westy, and just stored it behind the garage!

I was wondering if the expensive gas prices will influence the Westfalia
campers to be worth less or perhaps more.  I can think of both ways.
