What planet do you live on? I'm amazed at how some people will refuse
to listen to those who know better.

A bus with steering & suspension in good order, a set of performance
swaybars, good quality (read: Koni or Bilstein, nothing else) dampers
and the right wheels & tires (& brakes!!) is as safe as any
nonUS-market performance car at those speeds. What don't you
understand about this? There are LOTS of hot T3s in Germany, and they
don't dawdle on the Autobahns. They RACE them on the F1 tracks. Those
guys aren't into building or driving deathtraps, and use an excellent
vehicle as a base.

Why would a wheel fall off? Maybe you have forgotten to tighten the
nuts after changing a tire? Whose fault is that?

Van safety... ever looked at the Caravelle vs Volvo website?
