I don't know Stan, I think he has a point. Having just
purchased a NEUSED syncro I am finding a lot of use for this
word.
- For instance, since I have never driven in snow before that
is NEUSED
- My syncro is not aircooled which is NEUSED
- The Webasto heater heats with coolant instead of gas like
my BA-6 that is also NEUSED
- The syncro is 4WD as opposed to Pokey's 2WD which is NEUSED
- Having not sold Pokey yet (available in March asking $6,000
CAD / $4,000 US) I have entered the dangerous slipery slope
of multiple van ownership (Stan are you listening) this
double van situation is NEUSED
- The syncro actually has some power which is NEUSED
- The syncro has air conditioning which is NEUSED
Am I using the word right Jerry?
No?
Oh well...
Thanks,
Chris
