I was given the family Squareback when my parents helped my sister get her
horse. I think I was about 18 years old. My dad kept on telling me to get
rid of it but I loved the car more than he did. Why bother selling the car
and getting somebody else's used car that you don't know the history on?
Anyway, long story short, I still own the Squareback. Parents bought her new
in '72 and she's still an Erkson family member :-D
Some people just don't understand and that's too bad for them. I've given up
on explaining to people because, unless they have a hobby they are REALLY into
(and most people don't have hobbies...sad...) they will NEVER understand. I
feel *really* sorry for the poor volks who are in this hobby and their spouse
isn't and doesn't try to understand or go along with it.

get a new car, forget the vw, but I love it too much. So to convince him
otherwise, I have to show numbers.
