But it was well loved by my friends when we'd load up to go to the Lake !! And learning to drive a stick was mandatory in my family !! Do you remember during the gas crunch in early 70's and the VW Rabbit .? ?? I came home from school one day and the van was gone and 2 Rabbits sat in the driveway ☹
NOOOOOOO, NOTTTT a "dull, ugly brown"!!!! Those were BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE THE BROWN ONES!!!!!!
I WANT A BROWN ONE!!!!!! SO COOL LOOKING AND SO CLASSIC! I WANT ONE WITH PLAID SEATS! Yes IN BROWNS!!!!!
Yes, mandatory to learn to drive a stick shift and...
"DON'T POPPPP THE CLUTCHHHHHH!"
Oh and..."PUT IT IN NEUTRAL WHEN YOU'RE STUCK AT A LIGHT! YOU'RE WEARRRRRING OUT YOUR CLUTCH!"
I remember the gas crunch! Remember the Odd and Even days to get gas?!?
Oh! I LOVED THOSE RABBITS! I wanted one so bad! Then I started seeing those "Wanna' Be Barbie Doll" or "Wanna Be Madonna" types driving them around and I said "NO THANKS!"
Not that I would not have driven one if it was given to me!
I just always preferred the classics.
