econdly, NOTHING is perfect
Feel free to add to the gripe list.

1. The #@!% plastic parts in the cooling system, please find the
engineer who thought this was a good idea and let him fix them on the
side of the interstate when it is raining.

2. The Captain's Chair Arm "Warning your armrest will self destruct in
30 seconds.... Make that 10."

3. The footwells that attract rust. Here was one problem that should
have been left behind with the good old Microbus.

4. No lights on the heat or AC controls but the cigarette lighter gets a
nice green halo... maybe a disgruntled smoker in design at VW. "Make me
smoke outside, just try to set your heat at night"

But I guess compared to a cramped Astrovan, these pale in comparison.
