Akron, Ohio, United States

This is a very solid VW camper, originally purchased in Florida, then moved several years ago to Arizona. It sat for several years until I bought it to use for family trips. No longer used so time for it to go to another happy home. Very solid body, frame, and interior. Have taken interior out to refurbish but never got around to it. It will obviously be included in sale. This consists of :
Cabinet containing the propane stove (fuel tank is mounted under the body)
Refrigerator that runs off of propane, 12 volts DC, or 110 volt AC
Sink with faucet
Two high back bucket seats ( low back seats are mounted in bus currently)
Middle back seat
Rear seat that folds to make into a bed for two adults
Two cots for the children that mount just below the ceiling
shirt closet
storage for pots and pans
underseat storage with two speakers mounted
pop up top with decent canvas
rear screen so you can leave door open and not get eaten alive by bugs
crank out side windows for ventilation
air conditioning condenser with drip catcher
twin blowers to blow the cool air around
assorted bits and pieces to make staying inside more enjoyable

Runs and stops well. Doesn't seem to wander going down the road. The drivers door window glass is missing but I will include a complete, solid door with class and regulator in it. Needs one tire that won't hold air. No spare but have rim for one.

Why spend this much for a rusted bucket when you can get this one, add a little tlc and start enjoying the summer while you do what you want to make it your own? You must arrange your own shipping, but just shipped it from Arizona and it was $775 to Ohio. Or you can come and pick it up yourself. 

Check out the pictures and decide. This is one solid bus and you will be pleasantly surprised.

$1000 due at close of auction, remainder on or before pickup

Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Cadillac 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.

VW to relax ambitious US sales targets?

Fri, 16 May 2014

The Volkswagen brand sold 407,704 cars last year, a 6.95-percent decline compared to 2012, and it's down a further 8.36 percent through the end of April 2014 compared to this time last year. In order to to put the sales football between its Strategy 2018 goal posts, the brand would need to add 100,000 more sales every year to achieve the lofty 800,000-unit target. Coming to grips with how unreasonable that is, VW US CEO Michael Horn has said, "For now, we have to have realistic targets."
The reasons for the brand's slow-down are imprecise, but lots of folks are throwing lots of reasons around. Last November, VW Group Chairman Ferdinand Piech told Bloomberg, "We understand Europe, we understand China and we understand Brazil, [but] we only understand the US to a certain degree so far." Analysts say the brand hasn't had midsize and compact SUV offerings, especially an overdue retail version of the CrossBlue, and the ones it does have are priced too high for their segments. It "didn't introduce enough new engines, or alternative technologies or model variants" for the Passat and Jetta. It devoted so many resources to China that the US market suffered. It was being outspent two-to-one on advertising by competitors. Its J.D. Power dependability ratings aren't high enough to overcome its past. It "has never really taken the US customer seriously." And so on.
There's still no official admission of defeat concerning the target, but reading between the lines there are some VW execs that appear to accept it won't happen short of some deus ex machina. Still,
