how bout, you really think that thing looks good? When there driving around an expedition at 13mpg looking like every other person with an $30k suv as a dd all by them selves inside, at least I dont have a hard time finding my bug in a parking lot Twisted Evil

Its the only one that looks this way Laughing

I hope

I have people call my fastback a bug all the time... I'm thrilled they even associate it with being a volkswagen... people call my 1998 sedan a bug too... but I still don't get mad... not sure who came up with the term bug and bus... they are the sedan and the station wagon... so how about we stop referring to your mode of transportation as a bug or a bus and call it by its proper name?

Sometimes you just have to learn to let things go... I don't even argue with the people that tell me about their 58 super beetle with factory ac anymore... i just smile and nod and let them tell their story... i found it easier that way!

True. The "bus" was listed as a station wagon until 1977 when ads emerged labeling them a van.
