"I love the concept with the =
historical link

microbus version that is more basic, more elemental...connected more =
directly to
the roots of the original microbus. Drop the video screens and DVD =
etc. Allow this version to focus even more on soul, =
character, fun
to drive etc. Lighter, better mileage, manual trans., maybe a more =
sporty
exhaust sound from a wonderful V6.Let it make a sporty statement for =
those of us
that need a van, but wouldn't be caught dead in a Dodge Caravan. I =
currently own an '88 Vanagon with lots of performance stuff added. =
It is a
blast to drive. Make another one like this, and I along with lots =
