I have an '03 EV MV as my 70% daily driver.  Hands down it beats my '83
Westfalia in comfort and drivability.   I drive 12 miles to work every day
and it takes 40 min to an hour.  Very unpleasant in a 4 sp Vanagon.  Keep in
mind the '83 is 20 years older than the '03.

Right after I bought the EV and my wife and I were driving in it she says
"Can we drive this to the campground and have it turn into our '83 when we
get there?".  :)

The Dark Side is good, do not resist.

Alas, the Dark Side is seducing me with air conditioning and quiet(er)
cruising.
