Would have been cooler if they had picked a VW MK2 to drive across the country

It was quite by accident that I sent this to the list (73 year old brain fart

Actually I bought my first VW at a dealership in Wexford, PA, about 30 miles
from where I lived in Swissvale. The manager of the dealership was a very good
