Your 4 year old gets a "time out" for slamming the door too hard.Your 15 year old gets a "serious talking to" when she slams the trunklid too hard.You pull up to a 5.0 in your stock 8v and think "I SO got you off theline".For a time, you seriously considered changing your name to Victor Wilson...for obvious reasons.You know exactly what A3, MK3, B5, GTi and GLi means...You try to use those abbreviations in everyday conversation as much as possible.While camping, someone says "I hate bugs", and you feel compelled to give them a lesson in the beauty of german engineering.While looking at the price of a Ferarri, you think "hmmm, I could getFOUR vw's for that much!"You think "v-tec" is one of those dirty four letter words.You consider a VW Thing one of the most beautiful cars ever made. You have VW parts in all four of your bedroom closets.You have a poster, photo, or picture of a VW in each room of your house.You have a basement and garage full of VW parts many of which you do not even know you have.You have so many VWs that you cannot keep them all in one place.You start naming your children and pets after the names of VW models.You start calling your VWs by name.You spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to fit three of your VWs in your two car garage.You think seriously about knocking down the rec room wall in your house so you can park two more of your VWs inside the house.You always buy whatever is in a vending machine under your chassis number.You have enough spare parts to build an entire car.Your neighbors can't figure out if you're running a junkyard or an auto shop from your house.You are constantly trying to get your friends to join the "family".Employees at the local junkyards know you by name.Employees at the local auto parts store know you by name.Some VW part is currently the "centerpiece" of your dining room table.You have a complete dash in your office so you can imagineer how all the parts will fit when you?re done.
