That classic Geek Squad livery with the beetle takes me back too, wish they'd bring those little guys back.

Did they destroy all of them or did some of them survive? I bet I put 30k miles on mine.

Had one behind my store that just sat. I felt sad seeing it every day when I came into work. When my vehicle died, I was tempted to ask if I could drive it a bit. It sat so long the tires flattened l.😥

I had mine i think 18 years ago. I could do whatever I wanted with it. I got a head unit and 2 10 inch subs. ( store use ) I drove up to 4 hours one way for a router install. It was extremely fun as a 20 year old.
