Rick,

Dan Jensen was towing one at the Lone Star Bird Rally in Kerrville.

Did you find your transmission problem yet?

Ralph and Mike, Thanks for the reply to my question. I have talked to
VW and they are not very helpful in answering my question. They keep
jumping around and will not give me a direct answer.
