They were everywhere.  I saw between 15-20 (didn't keep an accurate count)
while out on my bicycle this morning on a 4hr ride from Hood River up to Mt
Hood and back.  I even circled around a very nice brown one, just like what
mine *could* be if I spent less time on my bike and more time spiffing out
the vanagon.  Oregon plates, Patagonia sticker in the window, parked at
Cooper Spur resort(my 'turnaround' on the bike)  maybe 5 were Syncros, the
rest 2wd Westies...Maybe 4  in the "Jeeze, I wish I had a new Crysler van
instead" modality.  Non-enthusiast owned....the rest with various toys
festooning them...Kayaks, sailboards, mountain bikes, etc..
  Pretty cool..I guess the Northwest US is really the Vanagon capitol of
North America..today anyhow.
