Re: [T3] VW Trends T3 Project

<x-flowed>amen to that.

they just have a very limited mindset and that mindset does not include 
notions about originality, good workmanship and certainly not expertise 
when it comes to complicated items that one cannot find o a VW bug.

years ago i actually had a subscription but soon enough i realized that 
the actual content (meaning what's left over when you take out 
advertising, "custom" cars and big-breasted women ) is virtually nil. 
even their tech columns seem to repeat the same old newbie questions 
over and over.
