I am selling my 1975 Volkswagen Riviera Camper Bus. I have personally owned this bus for twenty plus years. It has always been garaged and well maintained. I live in the high desert of Oregon which only gets 9-11 inches of rain averaged per year. It has an original 1800 cc fuel injected motor (VW first year of EFI for the bus). The odometer shows 83,850. Probably 183,850. I have put 50,000 plus miles on since owning it. It has been repainted the original orange and white and was reupholstered 10 years ago. I had them wrap the foam from the cushions in waterproof material and the upholstery is zippered to be able to remove the foam and clean the upholstery if needed. I had a new upgraded 4 speed manual transmission installed professionally at the beginning of the year at a cost of $2000 plus. Since my ownership of this van I have also had the engine professionally rebuilt. There are zero mechanical issues that I am aware of. This bus starts and runs like a new 2013 VW. All the camping equipment works great. The sink has an electrical pump or can be done manually as well. The refrigerator is an icebox and is well insulated. Propane is piped under the jump seat for easy cook top use. Headliner is impeccable, and so is the dashboard. Pop top fiberglass is excellent, as well as the canvas and screens. Minor tears in the screens have been patched. The tent that connects to the bus was included when I purchased the van and comes with the instructions. This tent can be a stand alone tent, but was made to fit right along side the bus and attaches to the bus when the side slider door is open. Like the Riviera pop top both the canvas and screens of the tent are in excellent condition. The bus has never been in an accident as far as I am aware of. The body is extremely straight and well preserved. The few issues the bus has are as follows. Very very small oil leak. I have yet to replace the original captains chairs. There are a few lighter scratches on the exterior paint. The exterior body is a true survivor with very minimal surface rust. It has one small issue of bubbling under the rear bumper. Floor pans are good with some surface rust and a very small issue on the drivers side floor pan. In over twenty years this bus has only let me down once when the original transmission failed. It has been a great reliable van for myself and my family, in both transportation and camping. I would not hesitate to drive it across the country. I always get tons of compliments of those passing by and will hate to see it go. Overall this Volkswagen is a 9+ out of 10. Also included are 4 like hanhook studded snow tires mounted on rims. Happy bidding!!!!

VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad
Mon, 28 Jan 2013
Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
