‘68-’71 VW vans had ducts that ran the length of their doors to supply air to the second row.

No. The range extender (REX) is just a stationary backup generator with a couple of gallons of gas.

Autocross?

Am I the only one that caught the “armstrong” window cranks on the rear doors?

If people want a new (or newer) vehicle with plastic body panels (and a carbon fiber frame), today, the BMW i3 is available.

It’s called Econ 101, Supply and Demand.

Just send them the bill for the full cost of repair/replacement!

Like most of us, you have champagne tastes and a beer budget.  It’s not surprising that ones that are two, three or four times your budget are the ones that you like the most!

Another likely downgrade will be a limited number of exterior color options, maybe as few as two or three.

At least in Colorado, there has been some efforts made to have people at risk of needing rescue help fund search-and-rescue efforts - https://www.the-journal.com/articles/who-pays-for-search-and-rescue-missions/

A low bar is still better than no bar - see gun regulations, especially the states with minimum training requirements (required versus none required).

It’s Oklahoma, not OAklahoma!

The other half of this discussion needs to be enforcement. Even if this gets passed, how often will an officer actually pull someone over for violating this law? About as often as someone gets pulled over for texting while driving (distracted driving) or camping out in the left lane (impeding traffic)?

If you can’t see half of the HUD, what can you see in front of the hood?! How many nearby short pedestrians/kids/pets are “invisible” to you, in this?

Using flashers when you’re going significantly slower than the posted speed limit (trucks on hills) or slowing (wreck or weather) makes sense.  But once the rest of the traffic is going the same speed as you are, shut them off.

I just can’t get past the schizophrenic original design that the factory let out the door. Vinyl wood grain and fake wire wheel covers simply don’t go with the randomly-placed Turbo and Shelby stickers. It’s neither a sleeper nor a sporty car, but it might work on the Jersey shore?

It’s a weekend cruiser, 5-10 days a year, when it won’t be raining, too hot, too cold or if you’re going to be buying anything bigger than a Lotto ticket. The some-assembly-required top and side curtains, combined with no trunk, really limits its use and why something like a Miata would be a much better answer,…

Expected: 1970 VW Westphalia Camper van.  50 hp in a 3,300 lb bar of soap.

One issue with the new dash is that there doesn’t appear to be a good way to attach a vent-mounted phone holder.
