I am very happy with it so far.
Its not my first Vanagon, I had an 81 Westy and an 84 7 passenger.
I think I will be much happier with the simple, spartan camping equipment in
this one.
Driving home from Denton to Abilene with AC was a real treat!
And yes, the dealership is awesome here, one of the parts guys came by here to
look at it when they closed today, he was quite impressed.

The only difference is:
1) You'll find out that you have to learn everything about it (and there is a
lot more to learn than a bus)
2) Constant worry about oil AND water level (replacing the constant worry about
oil temperature and level). Was that puff of smoke I saw this morning water
leaking into my cylinders?
3) A much more comfortable ride
4) A real heater
5) Much fewer (if any) waves EXCEPT the occasional duffer who wants to regale
you with his family trip stories... (which I have to admit was fun)
You luckily have some guys at the VW dealership up there who love Vanagons and
will be happy to share their knowledge.
