| Love the bus, looks like you did good. Almost brought a tear to my eye knowing baxter was gone though. We are wanting to get a bus one day also, with 3 grown kids we can't take all of them with us in the bug when we do cruses so 1 always gets left out. _________________ My name is Eric and I'm an Addict Aircooled Addicts www.aircooledaddicts.org'65 Beetle '65 Mustang '39 Chevy Business Coupe |

Yeah - but what is the weight limit, my youngest (13) is 6ft 190lbs. And then I would have to listen to the wife complain about it the whole way there._________________ My name is Eric and I'm an Addict Aircooled Addicts www.aircooledaddicts.org'65 Beetle '65 Mustang '39 Chevy Business Coupe |

| Gary - I like the bus. However, it is sad to see Baxter go... I'd love to hear the story about have everything went down when you get a chance. Now you have more room for that baby your wife has been talking you into. I might stop by the shop sometime next week to say hi and check out the new family bus. _________________ Jason ------ 1960 VW Beetle - Bagged ------ Aircooled Addicts www.aircooledaddicts.org------ | Jake Raby wrote: | | Breaking a tranny is the best compliment an engine builder can receive. |

| Thanks everybody. I am really enjoying the Bus already. It was hard to watch Baxter get driven away by somebody but I am happy with the decision. I will get some more pictures soon and of course it will be at Starbucks Thurs. night. It is so nice having all the room the Bus offers. I haven't named it yet so if anybody has any ideas let me know. |

| Nice bus Gary. Seems like a decent trade. The more you drive it around, the less you'll miss Baxter. Busses get under your skin and eventuallly you'll just have to have one in your VW stable.

Thanks. I think I will always miss that car a little but I am happy with the trade and would do it again in a heartbeat. There is just something about a bus and I am happy to have one again.
We have missed having you on our cruises  When are you going to be able to join us again? |

| The first show I went to was Bugs at the Branch and I recognized your bug immediately.  It was an icon. It was truly one of a kind. The bus is very cool too. |

| I thought about it. I figured I could just make it close to Filmore since mine is a Bay and not a split. I'm not real sure yet though |
