Hi Lucas,

Just got back from a 3700 mile road trip. The Westy performed wonderfully, and the 4WD conversion came in very handy in western Utah on our way home, driving through a blizzard on May 1st! We used about 3 quarts of oil and averaged 17.8 mpg.

We really benefited from all the enhancements that you guys made. The new fridge, air conditioning & solar worked great. We loved sleeping on the top bed with the new side windows unzipped so we could look out.

......Thanks for working on our Westy and providing us with such a functional and fun vehicle.

Stan
