Just spent 6 days in Maine.
3 Vanagons sittings.
2 were local beaters and one out of state Westy.

I was driving one of my Syncro SVX Carat vans.....needless to say I had to talk Vanagon often.
People know about these vans, but rarely see them.

We certainly do, salt vs nonsalt at the very least.� These days
driving around Providence I see one every few months.� I just took a
600-mi round trip into Maine and a 1500 mile one into southeastern
Ohio, and saw zero vanagons and zero buses.

But they were always expensive and never a popular vehicle in
market-percentage terms.� Remember how VW kept changing their mind
about bringing in the T4s?
