Now Fred,

If these vehicles were reliable there would still be lists.  I would venture
to say that people would much rather share enjoyable camping experiences with
their Westy's than having to share the agony of their Vanagon leaving them
stranded on some busy interstate (which seems to be guaranteed for a Vanagon
owner).  By the way, I take good care of my VWs also, but things still seem
to break, quit, and fall off for no reason other than poor build quality.
I just think VW could do better.
