Nov 4th, 2017: Back To The What?
Somebody has been taking acid, or is just nuts, to have dreamed this up.

There was a bus in the movie. The terrorists at the mall were driving one. But it was a late 70s or early 80s model. Not one of these old ones from the 60s.

My high school geometry teacher ( and life-long friend) took students around the amazing places to be found in Los Angeles in one of these in 1956.
We traveled all over the Pacific Northwest in one in 1969. I subsequently owned a bunch, four at one time. Pre-1967's are known as split windows for the windshield. Easily one of the top ten auto designs in history. This one is OK I guess. |

My dad had one in the early '80s. We drove it all over The Netherlands. It couldn't go through time, though, because we couldn't get it up to 88.

I believe the Netherlands is pretty flat, and not that big, with a very high population density. So there aren't many places where 88 would be prudent. The VW bus should work well in that environment.

The only time 88mph is prudent, is if you're still in third gear.

There's no reason to be driving 55 unless there's a cop behind you, or a VW bus in front of you.

You guys all crack me the hell up.
I've owned an 85, LOVED it. Plenty of headroom, could carry a lot of stuff, including full sheets of plywood, it was a camping workhorse and I'd own another one in a hearbeat.

Don't forget your earplugs so you can't hear the cursing and horns behind you.
