Subject:VW EuroVan chassis "Rialta"

The last time I looked at one I was surprised by the small amount of ground
clearance of the gray water pipe.  Furthermore the pipe descends forward
toward the front.  As I examined it I imagined that it could get hung up on
a curbing when the front wheels were high and the rear wheels were still
low.  But, better than my imagination, is to hear from users.  Jim.
