Re: The beast with Double Backs

It looks like those tires are illegal in some cities. (To low profile) We can guarantee they are illegal out on the rocky trails!

Re: The beast with Double Backs

Its nice but it has a serious flaw. Max three people seating, but sleaps 4? You might as well just stick to a normal Eurovan. Im glad someone is at least trying new things for the VW products. I don't think the T-5 is available for the North American market.
Doesn't the T-5 also come with a diesal and 4wd option?
