Well, here we are again on a Fryday.  I was wondering how many of us have
named our Vans, along with the what and why.  I know from posts that Ralph
has a "Velma" and Pete has an " Aardvark" and a "JoesVan".
So here goes, the story of my 91 Doka.  Once upon a time in a driveway in
Annandale, VA I had a 71 Single Cab, a 81 Bus, and a 2001 Bus.  I was
feeling a bit too rich so I decided in a fit of largess to clear my driveway
for the benefit of the less fortunate and purchase something new.  That
night I had a dream.  Now some plains Native American groups have the
"Legend of the White Buffalo."  It seems that you have this vision of a
White Buffalo and it means something (I hope I'm not getting too technical
here).  So I dreamt I saw a white DoKa with the sides down.  Do you know if
you look at a Doka with all gates down, with the massive front end and small
tight rear end it does have the shape of a buffalo?
So the next day I found a white 91 DoKa and before long I had four (4)
decades of Type II in my over-crowded driveway.  So I made three people very
happy with their new vans and I had my vision truck.
ed- with the 91 DoKa, "Bison"; because getting the nomenclature correct is
important.
