Maybe that's because it was air cooled....as I recollect having had a bug and a bus.....on the Bus, wife and 4 kids (one still nursing) left home and went to visit grandmaw...200 miles mostly on the old CCC or WPA concrete highway with the expansion joints every 20' or whatever the distance.
About 50 miles into the trip the 36 hp 4 banger lost a cylinder. 45 mph was top end and 45 and the VW wheelbase made for a rocking chair the rest of the way....just about everybody was car sick with the usual results when your stomach is upset....and if it wasn't the smell changed its mind.
Got to grannys and next day went used car looking...didn't have any luck as I was a non local GI.....but we endured the trip back with all 4 hitting and very soon after getting back to the base, we had a different mode of transportation.
Fast forward.......Bought a used bug for wifie to drive to work. Big sport for local smart asses when she happened to be the first one in line for a red light was to push her out in the intersection.......that one parted company also.

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
