Or how about finishing the sentence like:

- wife says vanagon must go - because Vanagon
doesn't go fast enough.

If the Vanagon had more power , auto trans, power
steering(if an older one) , and nice shiny paint
, she might like it.

But wife is stylish, keeps with trends, like
modern things, likes her neighbor's SUV or
minivan with remote doors.

I remember a guy who had a nice vanagon, not for
very long, he got rear-ended, wife took the money
and bought new minivan.

End of Vanagon story.
