We love our 99 MV. Shortly after we got it a couple of months ago we (2
adults, 4 kids) took a trip from NC to ME. The table was up most of the
time, being used for card playing, coloring, etc. Nobody got sick in the
rear-facing seats.
The rear seat does fold to a bed, but when it's configured that way, the
rear-facing seats are folded up and unusable. Our '90 Vanagon GL had the
forward facing middle bench, and could have the middle bench in use with the
bed configured. We miss that part.

Subject: [ev_update] '99 MV vs. GL
While at my FLVWD today (my breakaway mirror broke), I noticed a slightly
used '99 MV on the lot. It had the two rear facing middle seats. Not
wanting to be bugged to death by a salesman, I peered inside solo. Does the
rear seat fold down into a small bed on an MV? It also looked like it had a
nifty storage compartment behind the rear bench, a la the Camper set-up.
This model was not a weekender version, but looked like curtains could be
added. I'm curious to know from current MV owners whether the rear facing
seats are useful or a novelty. The little table was handy, but again, is it
useful? My wife has a Honda CRV which has a small folding table and cooler
under the rear deck. It's a clever idea, but we've only had the table out
once since we bought it (a demonstration to my in-laws). Sometimes clever
ideas exceed practicality. Is the MV as versatile as it appears?
Thanks in advance,
David
