I'm looking for a 2nd vehicle. Are there any recommended, that have Vanagon level Parts Availability & Online Support?

Is the Vanagon a special case because of the success of the VW Bug and subsequent emergence of independent VW parts suppliers?

Are there other autos besides VW, that have independent parts suppliers? I want to have parts sources in addition to the manufacturer's Dealership.

Any recommended autos with Internet news/lists/other support?

Thanks!

Scott Maurer

PS Thanks to all for the help/advise rebuilding my 84' Vanagon's 1.9l. I now have 48k miles since rebuild.
