Subject:Pronounciation of Vanagon
From:Andrew Grebneff

Being away from the market in which the vehicle was marketed under this (or
in fact any other) name, I'm not sure about the pronounciation.

I've been saying "van-a-gone" but realized yesterday that if it's a
contraction of vanwagon it might actually be "van-aggin".

Zo, whichizzit?
