I perked up when I heard Click & Cluck knocking our beloveds because, according to them, they're unsafe w/o airbags. Unsafe? I know seat belts and airbags are great things to have. I never drive w/o me belt but I don't consider an airbag as crucial to survival as a belt. Anyone disagree, with data? I was highly offended by some entertainer on the airwaves insinuating me SaVannah is unsafe. One of yous gearheads need to send them the crash videos we recently had going around here so they understand we're as safe as can be expected in a van of that era. I'll take a bald mid lifer in a Vanagon any day over a young turk in a red coupe high on testosterone!

Pretty funny stuff. Well, that same guy > called in THIS week to discuss his van and what it's like living in it. > His > question was, "can you retrofit an airbag into a vanagon?". Great stuff. > Seems those guys get a lot of calls about old VWs, eh? > -- Neil2 '82 Diesel Westfalia (USS Tinosa) '86 Vanagon/Westfalia Wannabe (SaVannah) Nunquam Pendite Divendium
