Subject:Re: is your Vanagon your main/only vehicle?

Volks,

My 1984 Vanagon was my only vehicle from fall 1985, when it was
purchased from the dealership with about 10k miles (salesmen taking
vacations in it) until last December when I bought my 1989 Syncro.

The 84 van has about 175k miles now, but has been driven no more than 10
miles since December, but hopefully before the weekend is over, I will
have a few repairs finished and will put it back on the road to do more
than half of the daily driving, saving the Syncro mostly for trips and
camping.  The Syncro has 180k miles.

So, my vanagons are my only vehicles.
