Subject:      1988 prices put 1995 prices in perspective

The prices recently posted for a 1988 Westfalia sort of puts a different
perspective on the EV Campers...


>VANAGON GL CAMPER, $21,180. - $21,690.
>Air conditioning with outlets in rear only, $990.
>AM/FM cassette radio with anti-theft feature, $625. (Geez what a ripoff!)
>Rear window wiper with intermittent feature, $180.
>Power heated exterior mirrors, $180.
>Power package with power front windows & door locks including
>   side door and rear hatch, $450.
>Cruise control, $220.


This adds up to US$24335. At 3% annual inflation rate, this is US$29929. in
1995 dollars.  The EV Campers are going for significantly less than that.
(Not MSRP of course.)
