[FONT="]I'm still not sold on this...euromade said:Mini vans have be positioned, from the marketing stand point, for the soccer moms. Do you think any of those moms would be able to manage the manual tranny, her cell phone, and a few kids in the back? I guess VW did a little research and probably did not find enought market share to sell a striped down version.
I think their mindset is that all Americans are rich into this wonderful economy of ours and we don't even think about mini vans, we go straight to the toureg's (wayy overpriced/rated)...ya, all vw/audi products are nicely engineered and such but 40-50 grand is not fundamental for any SUV (even with huge diesel/v8 packages, and quattro). 40-50k better get me my commercial truck that turns over some kind of revenue each year....
What an ignorant decision to keep the van away from Americans.[/FONT]
