ok, not wanting to start another "safety" thread....

Hunting down parts at Bry's to do some repairs on one of the Audi's, I
wandered a few rows further back where the Vanagons and other busses were
located, what do I see but a Vanagon with a front corner cut out of it.
Interesting. Go back a few days later with a camera, take a few pictures
(only three, thought I had more film), and figure I'd share them with
y'all. Pics are kind of dark as the sun played havoc with my "smart"
camera. From what I saw, these things are pretty darn well-built. Much more
structure in the front than the loafs. 'course, you can put as much metal
up there as you want, someone will say it ain't safe. Whatever... I feel
pretty safe in mine knowing that I can stop or steer around something that
gets in my way. If the worst does happen, chances are still pretty good
that I'm sitting above it. I take the very same chances on the roads
whether I'm in my VW, Audi, or whatever.

Sorry, the soapbox kinda snuck up under me there. check it out:
