All information I've seen in the past several years indicates the new
microbus concept isn't going forward. The Ohio VW article is old - if you go
up one level on their site you'll see it's on a page with articles from
2002-2003... all of which are dated 2006 at the footer. Another tip-off the
article is old is that it still provides the workers' salaries in DM.

Oh well. :(
