Well, not airspeed, but ground speed. My sweetie and I are going to pick up some firewood. We don't need much, so I said, "We can just throw some in the trunk of the car." He said, "Or we can take the van. We can put sheets down on the floor and pile it in. I wonder how much weight a van can hold?" This is a '67 Westy, more or less a project car, still needs quite a bit of work. (We got it when he was unemployed and has time, now he's employed but we're still broke, so it's a SLOW project.) I told him I'd ask you folks: What's the total weight a 1967 VW Westfalia camper can carry, between passengers and cargo, and still be happy and healthy?
