Well,

After months reading you guys, I can introduce myself since we are talking
about Quebec and Montreal....

I own a Vanagon Full Camper 1991 since 2003, and have also a 91 GL 7 pass.
This one will become a full westy soon...

I am living in Laval, Quebec, Canada (north suburb of Montreal), and am the
Sales Manager of a major VW dealer here in Canada. I love Vanagons, despite
the opinions of my co-workers... Did a lot of mechanical work from
rebuilding an engine to simple tune-ups. I am really impressed by the amount
of knowledge on that list. It is more difficult for me since English is not
my 1st language (I am a French Canadian, so be indulgent to me on the "maybe
poor quality of my written English".

I really would like to participate more on that list, but time is hard to
find with my job and a 9-month daughter that loves also travelling in the
Westy.

I found very interesting opinions here, and if I can share my personal
Vanagon and VW knowledge with you it will be a pleasure.
