>I think it's because those out west are just a bit more hip than us East
coasters. <
yeah you easterners need to come over here and join in on the VW
world...hehehe >;-)
just teasin, sorry!
I wouldn't be suprised if VW's top sales are in California. There are millions
of the buggers running around here. I see New Beetles almost daily(partly
because I drive for a living!), but one or twice...3 times last week!(2 blk 1
silv)
Although there's LOTS of Vanagons here, to most they're  "just another van" as
a driver I used to work with said about her 86 Westie. I thought it was COOL.
The last Westie we had was a 82 diesel!! I think Phalos got rid of it
though...it chugged black smoke so bad.
VERY few wave back, but more airheads wave to me with their cute vintage
buses.
I hoping to meet some new VW pals in a couple week at the Rally and Classic!
Anyone who plans on taking a trip in June MUST COME HERE and come to the show!
(its the 13-14th of june....VW Classic Weekend)
