Put it this way - 'Smart girls see the comfort and advantages of a vanagon,
particularly one with any sort of bed  in it."  

Comfort and feeling clean -  very important to most women.
And a vanagon provides that, whether on a day trip or longer trip.
Portable living roo too,  great for honing out, mobile privacy with curtains
fitted, what's not to like ?? !! 

Puts a car to shame in the comfort and usefulness department. 
A car might be faster, quieter and more feul efficient, but it is also
narrow in scope, A vanagon does that with not-too-much penalty for driving
and fuel mileage, but LOTS of other abilites, hauling stuff, camping in it,
sleeping in it.  It's a no-brainer.
