Re: Tourag? or toureg or whatever they call it

And, I think they are poking fun at old VW commercials.
It was all over the news last evening and this morning that the last of the
old style Bugs rolls of the line today at a plant in Mexico.  In the story,
they showed an old commercial clip and it was a bug driving into a high
water crossing, exactly like the new commercial, only it didn't keep going
like the new rig does.
