It's simple, the author doesn't know what he's talking about.

And why would he say 're-introduced' as if they were withdrawn from our
market for a while ? 

 

'making stuff up' as you say.

My guess was that they are referring to the Vanagon which was introduced in

England in 1979. If it's not that then it's the usual media making stuff up.

I'm a bit confused by this statement at the bottom of the article

 

 

*"P.S. The automotively minded will recall that the VW camper/minibus was

reintroduced in the United States around 1979, but it was a bust, mainly

because it was so underpowered."*

I'm not disputing that it's under powered but the rest cannot be an accurate

fact can it?
