<< Please excuse me if this subject has been discussed before, but I would
 like to know if anyone has compiled stats on who is more likely to smash

dont feel too bad - a friend of mine backed his '70 bus into one of those damn
gas pump island metal poles (they put those there, just for vw buses to run
into) and it took out his whole decklid, bumper, and apron.....had to pry the
decklid open with a crowbar just to check the oil......  :<(

~every~ vw van/bus i've ever owned has had a mangled rear bumper.....
