Well, I guess we can't hide going down I-380.
Listees will be glad to know that I took their advice and did NOT buy a
Eurovan, but rather TWO burgundy vanagons(thanks Joel Walker for the
tip!) from the estate of a young guy in St. Louis. he musta been a
pretty cool guy, the 90 Carat was nicely fixed up.
Towed the 90 (w/ automatic- I took out the axles) with my 87. It handled
the hills pretty good, down to about 45 a couple of times, but usually
55-65 and got 17 mpg. Stopping was a little dicey, but I was really
careful to leave a large gap ahead of me .
There are actually 5 Vanagons in the driveway now!
