Vanoganders, Today I talked with someone about a '90 Vanagon. It ended up being a GL with manual trans and 72K miles on it. It wasn't what I was looking for, so I passed. But the conversation brought up an interesting point; doesn't it seem odd that a vehicle with only 72K miles on it should need a new clutch? Are Vanagon's that weak in the clutch area that they need a replacement so early in it's life, or is this another fraudulent case of an unhooked mileage indicator? Please advise, oh pillars of infinite Vanagon wisdom. Thanx, Terry --
