Here! Here! Peter I am with you!

"We Dared to Reinvent our Classic Van", they should be ashamed of
themselves.

Any self respecting lover of the hippy movement, or lover of the
classic VW Van series would literally spit on that thing VW is calling
a "reinvention" of the classic!

Not only is it disrespectful to all those who love the real VW Vans,
indeed it shows how out of touch they are. If they for one moment did
any research by asking those of us who own these vans they would know
we all hate that bastard child they call a reinvention.

Sorry if my tone in negative but when I see corporate automakers make
automobiles and claims without market research it really angers me at
their wasteful nature. Waste of ad time and for me wasteful use of
materials and money to produce a piece of crap like that vehicle.

I have no idea why they just did not come out with the Design they
showed us all years ago. That indeed was a "reinvention". I would like
to see that Van in a hybrid. Then you are talking true innovation.

Ok, I am done. Thanks for indulging me....
