Chris, The weekender seat was a great addition to the bus. I've also made a shower cap like bug screen to the rear hatch. Now atleast i'm not (and the wife) sweating bullets while sleeping. I got the idea from a list-member some time back can't remember who, but thanks whoever you are :) I'll have some pictures of it soon on my page... As far as oil goes, I'm using Kendall 10w30 recommended by my mechanic. Refined in PA state if I recall :) I also flushed the coolant and replaced it with Autobahn - figured I'd be safe with that. 18L !!! it took :) Anyway, nice to be on the list again, gotta go load up the scuba gear for tommorow.. see ya's next week!!
