I haven't had the chance to carry much in my Caravelle, since the trans
blew shortly after buying it.

But I have carried 16 passengers in a friend's 62 Split, and probably way
over a ton of river boulders in my 57. The 57 also carried a Honda CB750 K2
and most of my other belongings in one go; another time it carried both a
Honda CB450 K6, an SL100 and the rest of the space was jammed full of other
stuff (CB450s are about as heavy as CB750s). These 2 last trips were in the
order of 450mi or so, driven at 50-70mph.

Now, I wonder what the World's Dumbest Guy would have loaded his Vanagon up
with, had he replaced his bronze Jetta with one?
