And you're going to *need* your VW bus to haul all the diapers, toys, blankets, carseats, etc.! :^) I got my '71 bus just as my son was turning 4 and graduating from carseat usage. One of his first non-carseat trips was in the right front seat. But... he was used to the stabilizing effects of the sides of the seat, which most carseats have but the '71 bus didn't. So, he had no idea of how to brace himself in a turn. First gentle curve, and he went toppling off the seat, slipping completely free of the shoulder harness and wound up suspended upside-down by the tightly-cinched lap belt, his head about 3" from the floor-- unhurt, but with a *very* surprised look on his face. He learned quickly after that. :-\ ______________________________________________________________________ _ ______________ ______//________ Steve Maher smaher@gi.com //__][__||____\\ /o _ | -| _ \ San Diego, CA 75461,1717 (o _-| _ o| `-(_)=======(_)---' '(_)-------(_)-' '66 Mustang Coupevertible '89 Son Sherwin '80 VW V6anagon "There are plenty of jobs out there-- I have three of them myself!" ----------------------------------------------------------------------
