Chris,
That was me who sighted it.  I forget the date but it was the most
recent issue with Colin Powell on the cover.  I think it was page 15 or
something.

In retrospect, I can see why they wanted a Vanagon for the ad, they
needed something where they could get right up close to the driver for a
photograph :-)
