OK I'll bite...
1) Who among you Suebaroo'ed vanagon owners has run up a bunch of miles?
2) We 'purists' (as my son likes to call me, since I like to try to keep my
vans 'stock') have only heads and such to deal with. What complications have
you experienced with higher miles on the Japanese/German blend?
3) On the subi/van package, not the original van.....what is your experience
with the higher torque and its effect on your drive train? Particularly
relevant since the earlier post from our German friend and the endless
paragraph.
4) Any of you sold a subi/van yet? How's the market value hold up?

Just asking for asking's sake.
