This is a rare 1973 VW Bus in great condition. Bus was purchased 6 years ago from VW mechanic who restored bus (new paint, rebuilt engine). Bus was purchased with 69,300 on odometer and I put 10,000 miles on the bus in the last 6 years. Bus is 95% rust free and has new cream colored paint with white trim on bumpers. The bus also has a pioneer CD player with speakers. The bus has a fiber glass bubble top that was not original. Bubble was added after market and adds storage and the ability to stand up in the bus. The back seat has been converted into a sleeper/sofa seat. It has been outfitted with 4 inch foam and is a very comfortable bed to sleep 2 people. I am looking to get $6,500 for the bus. I am only interested in a bank check or cash for the bus. I am open for interested parties to come and view the bus before purchase. I am looking to sell the bus only because our family could use the money to fix up newly purchased home.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers
Fri, 19 Apr 2013The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
