Flashbacks

On that recent "Tour de Big Cities" we were confronted with that Hippie Van. Here it is again.
The Fuzz thought this alteration might be appropriate. But it did bring back memories of a time back in "the days", when these (young) "Hippies" drove their own Micro Bus. We were able to dig this old picture out of the archives.
Unfortunately, this particular Micro Bus was lost in New Mexico due to some mechanical difficulties. But these people did go on to bigger and better things.

Those old VWs were kinda cool. They tended to sound like a bunch of loose stuff in a bucket. But they were fun to drive.
Now they have these silly pseudo bugs. But these are not real VW Bugs, not really.
The real VW was Hitler's idea, sort of a poor mans Porsche, maybe his only good idea. But we won't go there today.

A real VW has an air cooled engine in the back, and the trunk is under the hood.

Everything else is just a sorry excuse for what it could be.
