Yes, I saw that too!  I wrote the guy's name down to contact him via
email.  There is probably 4 mins of air time with this dude driving his
Vanagon Westy!

Another sighting:  There is a commercial for a new job search company
where all of these monsters are walking around like Godzilla and blowing
up things.  It is from a company called The Ladders.  At one point when
the monster blows up a group of cars you can just see an 85 GL Vanagon
blowing up too.  They have one scene where it is small and then another
scene where they enlarge it.  I had it on a recording on my computer and
I saw it out of the corner of my eye and then stopped and rewinded it a
couple of times.  You have to look quick to see it.  It is maybe 1
second.  Through the magic of You Tube here is a link of you want to
watch it:

Also the daily comic strip Zits has a VW Splittie being the first car of
the teenage son in the strip.

I guess that is all for now.
