I have to admit to being a Bus & (later) Vanagon guy... have never owned a Beetle. I read a book on the Splittie/Bus/Vanagon, etc. (Transporter) which had a lot of Beetle history in it; then read Ingrassia's book on 15 cars that affected the American Dream. He says the Corvair was designed to halt the Beetle's inroads, and he also discussed the DDB ad campaign for VW - how innovative it was.
Hence this thread...
