I agree wholeheartedly! What kind of fools is VW looking for??How many
Eurovans do they really expect to sell at that price?!!
Sure, many of us would agree that it is still the superior choice in a van,
but pa-leeze!
And how long did we have to wait?? The last Eurovan was available in 1993!
Something is
VERY wrong with this picture. Come on VW, wake up!!
