"I think this guy's nuts!  You?"

"Yeah.  Me, too.  How 'bout the rest of you guys?"

"Mmm-hmm.  No question.  Real fruitcake."

Terry,

We all talked it over and I think you're crazy.  My Vanagon goes like hell,
climbs hills just fine, and is solid as a rock in crosswinds.  BTW, it works
just fine off-road, too.  Just gotta keep in mind it's not a Ferrari,
Peterbuilt, or Hummer.  Or, as I like to say, "if you don't like it, I'll
give you $50 for it!
