Last year we were camping in the San Gorgonio area, near Big Bear.  After a
walk, we came back to the Van and there is a little note attached to the
driver's side window.  It said "Sweet, Sweet Ride" in a woman's
handwriting.  (but no phone number!).

My wife takes our Syncro regularly for special purposes (camping, moving
stuff, other car broken), she has no problem with it, but not her first
choice.  She goes camping with her girlfriends, they sleep in the
dirt/tents, and she gets the nice indoor bed;  quite a status advantage.
But then she is broken in, since an '89 Wolfsburg was her daily driver (and
our family car) for about 10 years raising our kids, until the sneer from
Suburban/Expedition soccer moms got too much for her, and I gave in.
