[VB] [T2] would you buy a bus today?

[Olive]

I'm hanging on foolishly to my 71 poptop as it is supposedly 'valuable' , even though it has been through several engines, many rough miles, and so is not show condition. Its been places. 
Foolishly because I should buy a safer, more convenient vanagon.  But I dont like their shape!  And so many memories. 
Aren't most vw owners just crazy about their buses?

OK OK … so most know what happened to my 78 … I paid $1,400.00 for my 60 (1996) it was running and needed rust repair but minimal, and I paid $6,000.00 for my 78 (2004 or so) - 100K km and was totally rock solid, I paid 1 K for my first 82 anut d put about another 7K into it …. 

My question is … who would buy a bus at today’s prices … like, my 60 must be work at least 30K, 78 (prior to accident) 22 to 25K, and I sold my vanagon for 13K … but at today’s prices I’d never buy an early bus … a vanagon maybe - but that’s it … 

who would?
