V is for Volume, value. And Vroom!
Volkswagen, Van and Volume go together very well, and have for the half-century since the first VW Transporter was made. The VW van may not have had the capacity of a full-size American van, but there was a lot of room on the inside compared to the space it took up on the road.
The V-word that has never been associated with Volkswagen vans is Velocity. After years of building a van with what German engineers think drivers need, they finally built one with what American drivers want: power, 201 horsepower, to be exact.
While they were at it, they lowered the price more than $5000, which brings in another V-word: Value.

Insurance Rates Are Rising, Too
The incredible run-up in gasoline prices is getting a lot of ink, but for the first time in a year, car insurance rates are on the rise as well, according to a study by the Insurance Web site, the largest online auto insurance agency in the United States. The company expects auto insurance rates to continue to move up at least through the balance of the year, which means consumers will need to be even more savvy shoppers as they try to keep their car insurance rate to a reasonable number.
Buying Used
Today it's relatively easy to get a second-hand rose
If you buy a used car, you're buying somebody else's troubles.
That tattered bit of automotive buying advice has been making the rounds since Jack Benny bought his first Maxwell. While it might have been true in the heyday of planned obsolescence, the fact is some of today's smartest vehicle shoppers are buying used. There is no doubt that there has never been a better time to buy a used car.
