Be careful in that bus. *Those flat fronted vans of the day, offered
little protection. *Not that you want to hear this, but the VW Bus made
this list of deadliest car designs.

============================================

Yes, I used up one of my youthful nine lives in a VW bus roll over
back in the 60s. * They are also known for doing unscheduled lane
changes in a cross wind or when being passed by a tractor trailer
truck.


My good friend had a Corvair that seemed to have a mind of it's own.
You could be going down the highway at 50 mph or so, and the thing
would just take off in a different direction. Good thing we lived in
the country, mostly fields. We had to replace a lot of farmer's fences
though!
