Subject:Re: how many people drive vw as daily driver

I own 3 cars, an '82 Westy (the TURD), a '74 Thing and a '90 Cherokee.  The
Westy is the driver now with a 120 mile commute from Oswego, IL  to
Lincolnshire, IL each day, 5 to 6 days a week.  The Jeep's 4wd system eats
parts on the long commute, the thing has 34k original miles so I rarely
subject it to the long haul, and the Westy is going great at 350k miles.

There is just something special about driving an air-cooled camper at 68mph
everyday to make the world seem right.
