ahhhh da beetle...

[zooker]

yep i owned one back in the 80's..

a 71 super bettle for a 4 cyclider air cooled moter-58 horse-4 speed,rear wheel drive. it ran good, handlin was iffy at best -shed induced handlin was AWESOME- it had very lil room to squezze my big but in.-get the shoe horn lubed-but was a cool to ride to highschool in.several girlfriends loved driving the zookie bug..

friday morning i rolled into my sisters house in a new 2011 beetle, it was hers..i did get a suprise when punching the bug off lights, going thru the city.. the moter is a 2.0 l front wheel drive jobby. handled better than exspected over the "level" and "straight" roads of bethal west virginia.. i threw it around corners at speeds that would make my truck tires squall,with no ill effects..yep still a bit of a squeeze to get in.and the girls still love to drive the bug with it's ugly as ever looks..i even had a 6 foot blonde milf-not my sister- drive it down I-77 from bethal to the 'gap.same complaints as mine-designed for the runt driver..

on the up side the family bussiness did not take as long as i figured..so i am back and will NOT be fishing this weekend...
