yes, that may seem like a blanket statement..but.. it appears to be  true.
 in all my years into the vw hobby, it seems that most of the  stolen vw's
you hear about are always on the west coast...

maybe that's because all the vw's on the east coast have rusted away..  LOL

I'd like  to ask anyone that becomes aware of a recent theft of a Vanagon
to repost  to WetWesties and vanagon.com.  With over 2,000 subscribers  on
WetWesties there is going to be a large audience and more people that  might
spot a stolen Vanagon.
Based on what is being reported on The  Samba there has apparently been many
more that the four or five Vanagon  thefts around Seattle than I've seen
reported on WetWesties and vanagon.com  .  Many of us do not read The Samba
on a regular basis where these  reports may also show up.
And to any with the info post as much as you may  have.
And any info on recovered Vanagons would also be of help,  especially
location of the recovery, condition, and how the theft might  have been
accomplished.
