Hello Volks, Just got a National Geographic in the mail, found an ad for d*does mini van. The all-wheel-drive uses an "inter-axle viscous coupling the automatically gives more torque...as needed" A viscus coupling, what an idea! I wonder where I heard of this before? I really wonder why VW almost peetered out in the vans, I know the EV is around but it's just not the same as it was. Marketing? Public acceptance? VW service? Price? Did the public just grow out of the vw bus? Maybe I'm just having a bad day, but it would be nice to be able to get an AWD van with double doors on both sides, seat 7-9 and have some storage... Rob
