Subject:      Straw poll: maintenance costs [Syncro]

Here's one for those of you who have owned (or own) both Syncro and
non-Syncro Westies (or have a Syncro and would like to chime in):


How much time/money does a well-maintained Syncro takes on a *monthly* basis
as compared to a non-Syncro Westy?  Is the difference appreciable? I will be
buying a Westy (or EV camper) soon, and while the 4WD Syncro is *very*
appealing, maintenance costs could be a big mitigating factor...  (And IMHO
the EV's just lack "charm" )


I apologize if this subject has been covered; I was unable to find anything
offering direct (albeit subjective) comparisons in the archives...  Thanks.
Hopefully, this can stir up some good debate with actual Vanagon content
:-)
