I think its just that it's not really "cool" looking, but just kind of "silly" looking. Not to mention the hippie stigma it carries...and yes, sorry to all you flower children, but it is a stigma, imo!!I'll admit I agree with some hippie philosophy, but when it comes to hippie style I

If you simply MUST drive a V-Dub, at least get one with a little bit of off-road capability.
I spent a few years behind the wheel of one of these...ummmmmm...things.
Not big on comfort, but a fun ride if you put big jugs, cam, dual webbers, etc on em...

Ps: why is it that all DJs sound the same when you're driving cross-country? You've either got the perky young female, with a cute voice but probably a face made for radio, or the middle-aged guy who still sounds like he finds Hall and Oates exciting and meaningful, through the 80s, 90s and today!!!!
