Sam, RE dissing CU, you wrote, << IIn their test of an '84 Vanagon, they accused the Vanagon of "side-to-side rocking". I have an '84 myself, and have never experienced this. Has anyone else? >> Yup. My van will oscillate in the wake of a semitrailer if you get too close. This says to me either to either back off the gas for a bit or pass.
<< What do you think of their website? Do you think the "subscribe-only-for-a-fee" auto database is just a little feh? >> CU has always charged for printouts of new-car prices. I don't think that they could afford to purchase all of the stuff they test on the bucks they get just from selling magazine subscriptions and other publications.
