1987 Vanagon Syncro Westfalia, which is resting comfortably in the parking lot
here in Kingman. My door badge says something like 5540 lbs, GVW and I get
that often when loaded for a long trip … this one being 3 weeks so far and still
550 mi. or so left on it.

Bob … glad to have the 16" wheels with BFG's. Good, stable platform.
