Subject: Re: Its NOT a mini-van!

What is it?

It's a bus
It's a van (if you must)
It's a camper (yes even without the poptop)
It's my freedom
It's a place to watch a band play, balloon festival, game, insert
event...
It's a cool place for night time activity...
It's a wagon for moving stuff
It's a grocery-getter (if need be)
It's a work of modern- albeit mine is 29 yrs old- art
It's a pace setter (0-60, yes)
It's just a way of life...

It's ANYTHING BUT A MINIVAN!!!

Maybe it could be considered one in a sort of purist definition...Like
what a minivan SHOULD be...I recently got over 20 MPG in mine and can
transport 8 of us comfortably, including groceries, strollers, you name
it (much more than Full Size Ford Conversion at 12.5 MPG blech)

Thought we could come up with a better title...I don't want the vanagon
to be grouped in with the likes of other Mini-van nonsense out there...
:-)
