Yes, I have many VWs, and they are 30-50 years old, so yes I work on them too. They are about as complicated as a lawn mower. Volkswagens rock.

Uh...that's the point. All the other car makers mentioned were bankrupt by the time this ad aired (1960's? 1970's?).

1969, I believe, Geotpf. Hudson was still sort-of around (Hudson and Nash combined to make American Motors).
