The other thing is, I'm not sure it would last 400,000 miles pushing a Vanagon around. A Vanagon is a lot harder on an engine than a Volvo 240 is. It's heavier, has more wind resistance, has a more confined engine bay, and has a more restrictive cooling system. David Brodbeck, N8SRE '82 Volkswagen Diesel Westfalia '86 Volvo 240DL wagon
