The iCar: iBus or iBeetle?

No iCar votes for "iBus." Here's why:

1. According to Roger Boyes of Times Online, "Steve Jobs sold his VW Bulli minibus 31 years ago to fund his fledgeling company, set up in his parents’ garage in Los Altos, and apparently maintains an emotional connection to the discarded VW van." This would offer Jobs a powerful incentive to lobby for the stalwart VW Bus as the iCar. No iCar must admit that she, too, has a soft spot for The Bus and might even forgive Jobs' part in the technological revolution, but that does not mean she will morph into an Apple Zombie Follower. However, after a discreet wait, she might even jump into to bed with Apple and VW and *buy* the iBus.
2. Americans in particular are becoming heavier and even obese. No iCar is making no weight judgments here--she, too, could stand to lose a few pounds--but Apple/VW need to manufacture an iCar that will offer a certain level of comfort for those of us who carry a few extra pounds.
3. No iCar cannot see all those iCar gadgets, in addition to driver and passengers, being stuffed into an iBug. It is feared that the days of 20 college students piling into a Bug have long passed.
4. The VW iBus would be a natural fit for a young and growing, plugged-in family.

Of course, Apple and VW could opt to offer more than one model.
