I vote for the day that the Vanagon was invented... and personally that
historic day in 1987 when I bought my 84 Westy and drove it home!!

And heck, if the election doesn't go the way I want it, I can hop in my
Vanagon and head out of the country!  The only change I need, is an Oil
Change, coolant change, and maybe a tire change.

Hyperbole much?

I vote for January 17, 1949 - the day Ben Pon imported the first VWs
into the US. That's the most important date in US history, as far as
the list is concerned, IMO.
