Sean - Glad to hear from one who has come to grips with the "karma"
involved with VWs!!!  I was looking out the window of my office at my
'85 GL today thinking about how I drive the thing EVERY day and just do
not suffer from the dire predictions the weak-at-heart tell us to fear
from from driving these machines!

Unlike my "ex", who dropped two engines while she had the van, I really
have learned that VWs thrive on respect for things like OIL LEVELS,
RPMs, WATER TEMPERATURE/LEVELS, OIL CHANGES and their SELF-IMAGE!!!

I'm not even sure what some of the folks here have in mind.  Maybe they
should form a forum for their delight in their Caravans?
