I tend to call the DoKa a truck when not around VW folk, and if I don't feel like explaining it (the plate is DOKA, so I get asked anyway). When talking to family, I call the Westy a van (like calling the DoKa a truck, it's easier). I do the same. Dokas and Sinkas are trucks to non-VW people. My 16" Doka plate says SYNCRO. I've had more than a few people say, "Oh someone beat you to the 'H' ? Don't mind the 'syncro' badge next to the plate.
