don't think this holds up the same way in california

lots of women driving westy's too - my daughter has a syncro camper & she'll
be driving to burning man for about the 4th time in a westy in a couple of
weeks - I had a 2WD Westy and one day we were driving the back road from
ferndale through huckleberry to weott on the lost coast up in humboldt and
she says, "if i every get a license i think i'd like to drive something like
this" - i said, "if you ever do get a license, it's yours" - she got a
license a few years later (at about 27 years old) and has been driving a
westy ever since
