Hi everyone- I've been following this site for a while, but never post. After thinking it over for a while, my wife and I have decided to purchase a VW Westfalia for the many adventures we have planned. We've recently sold our Landrover, and still have our Jeep, but really think a pop top van would be a great way to travel. We cannot swing a Syncro, so that's out. My question is, which is more suitable for long journeys, a pre 1979 air cooled Westy, or a pre 1991 water cooled Westy? I've had 3 older Bugs when I was MUCH younger, and I'm inclined to go that route. However, are the Vanagons more practical? Any opinions/advice would be appreciated. Thanks!-Colin
