<< Today, I was able to put the van to a real test,
 picking up a stranded friend in a freak snowstorm here. With the tall
 Blizzaks and the torquey diesel at my disposal, I weaved my way around many
 stalled, slipping, slow SUV's, trucks, making me wonder aloud 'who really
 has the SUV here?' My friend replied "How disgusted these SUV drivers must
 feel to be passed by a lowly old VW bus!" An experience to remember. Next? A
 6000 mile journey to Oregon and Montana for some snowboarding, in the next
 month. Wish me luck, and if there are any list-members in that area that
 want to talk Vanagons or just have a great NW beer, give me a yell!

 Boy those Blizzaks are great, aren't they. I have a set of those on my
syncro's also. They run circles around SUV's, especially my quattro. See ya.
