Here's a variation of a reply that twists things a bit (heh heh) ... and
relax, it's just a _joke_ (sorta).

------------------------------------------------------
Damon,

Ignore the lower insurance advice, ICBC won't give you a break on insurance
for a woman, and they don't recognize women as a human, since most
people in BC use them as daily drivers.

If you're strapped for cash, don't let a woman come between the two of you.
Dump her.

 I've parted ways with lots of cool women, mostly English or BBW's.  I
recognize now that if I didn't divorce my first wife,  I probably wouldn't
have hooked up with an old porn star, or a redhead, or an Asian, or my
midget f-buddy (blah, blah, blah,)  or my current flame.  I'd probably be on
some female body building mailing list arguing about early 70's hairdos.

Variety is the spice of life and a foolish consistancy is the hobgoblin of
little minds,(adored by many brand loyal consumers).

 You can buy (!) another one (or not) easily here in BC.  Lets face it
they're cool, but relatively unreliable.  (That's why I bought the spare
stripper from you...). If you do sell, sell or trade on Vancouver island.
They get more from them there.  I recently saw a 81 brunette with 300,000
kms for 19,995 in Duncan!  You could always move to the island where morals
and judging conditions are over-bearing female friendly.

 It's just a woman...

 OK, Flame me,

From the original:

Damon,

Ignore the lower insurance advice, ICBC won't give you a break on insurance
for a second car, and they don't recognize the Westy as a camper, since most
people in BC use them as daily drivers.

If your strapped for cash, don't let a van come between the two of you.
Sell it.

I've parted ways with lots of cool cars, mostly English or 4WDs.   I
recognize now that if I didn't sell my first Olds 442,  I probably wouldn't
have bought an old IH Scout, or a Landcruiser, or an MG, or my Triumph,
(blah, blah, blah,)  or my Westfalia.  I'd probobly be on some muscle car
mailing list arguing about early 70's GM option codes.   Variety is the
spice of life and a foolish consistancy is the hobgoblin of little minds,
(adored by many brand loyal consumers).

You can buy another one (or not) easily here in BC.  Lets face it they're
cool, but relitively unreliable.  (That's why I bought the spare ECU from
you...).  If you do sell, sell or trade on Vancouver island.  They get more
from them there.  I recently saw a 90 Westy with 300,000 kms for 19,995 in
Duncan!  You could always move to the island where speed limits and driving
conditions are Vanagon friendly.

It's just a vehicle...
