yeah, i suppose there's an aspect of america that's into excess about certain things. but, what you say about how things are laid out over there makes sense and i did suspect that as a factor in these cultural differences. otoh, you say "used to". does that mean things are not quite that way, anymore? are you saying people are going all bear grylls over there, too?
i had an '84 westfalia vanagon for a couple of years before i wrecked it. i certainly appreciated how minimal yet spacious it was. the 1.9L boxer engine in the rear really made that possible. now if it had only had a bit more power..lol! 88hp i think was all it had. it did not like steep hills or interstate speeds
