Just thought I would draw attention to our Eurovan for sale...but now it is on E-Bay.  
Selling to the highest bidder (after reserve is met).

The reserve has been met!  The bidding ends tonight at 7:04!  Today is your last chance!  Beware of the snipers! :devil:

Good luck, Shamu!

PS, I don't know why this smiley appears when I type "seven-oh-four", but you get the gist.

The end is near, better bid soon . . . Gobusgo is within hours of being water-cooledless.  (That is a word, isn't it?) :alien:

And just for everyone's information . . . The :0 smilie shows up anytime you type a : in front of a 0.  So when you write a time, like 4:00, it shows up between the 4 and 0, but if you write 4:15 or 4:30 it doesn't.  You can get around it by turning off the smilies in your post, but that's no fun.  Or you can just remember that anytime you see a :0 between two numbers, someone was typing a time of day.  The first time I saw it show up in one of Cindy's post I wondered "why did she do that?"  Then the next post I made with a time in it did the same thing :confused: . . . after loosing a couple of nights sleep wondering why, I finally figured it out.  :lookaround:  Yeah, I'm a little slow sometimes.  :blush:

I have yet to hear from the winning bidder, but the bids went up to $7,000, which was $500 more than our reserve was set for. :thumbs-up: If all goes well, we will be water-cooledless (Zen's word, not mine! ) in a few days.

Will we miss the air-conditioning that much?  I hope not.  I am already used to driving a vehicle without air, so maybe Linda will be the one to have to adjust to having no A/C.

Maybe in a few years we will be looking for a latest-model Vanagon (1991) to replace Moby.  It will have to be a perfect representation to even equal the comfort of the Eurovan.

Yes, and they are coming up from Orlando, FL on Tuesday to pick Moby up.  
To tell the truth, I don't know if I would be able to buy a car off of eBay without being able to look at it and inspect it first.
But I'm glad someone else can!!! :coolshades:

Moby is gone!!  He went to Florida, where he is sure to last a while longer...the rust will probably take over and kill him before anything else!
 
So water-cooledless are we.

I was the last VolksFolk to see Moby,  I saw it going south on I-75 tuesday afternoon near Adairsville, GA.  I felt sad knowing that was most likely the last time to see the van :mecry:
