We love our VW LT Florida....Yes it is bigger than a vanagon, but not that
much bigger.!  (Ok it is 10 feet tall...)   I would have troubles
downsizing back to a regular Westy now.   It is front engine/RWD but has
similar front end space of a vanagon.  The engine is nestled between the
front seats.  The only downside - it is difficult to climb through to the
back.  Not exactly a walkthrough.  Every other aspect of the van we love.
