I've heard that Huntsville has a pretty good quantity of Vanagon owners.
Aerospace folks seem to like them. Drive up for a weekend to get your fix!

Subject: I am not alone

For the longest kind of time I have not seen any Vanagons around
Birmingham, AL but my own. Never see any mention of Birmingham on the
Vanagon List so have wondered if I am all alone in the big city.

Well, today, just after parking my van and nearing the steps into the
house, I hear this familiar engine sound, and almost simultaneously hear
the unmistakable sound of a Vanagon horn down by the street. I turn and
look toward the street in time to see TWO Tintop Vanagons with cargo
carriers on top - one behind the other, one blue, one green, chugging up
my hill. They waved, blew the horn again, but didn't stop. Wish they had.

But it's nice to know I'm not alone in the big city.
