Don,
I'm replying cautiously about this since we're heading off into non-Friday disciplinary areas, but are you sure about that Previa drivetrain configuration?� I know they offered the 5-speed, the AWD and the supercharger, but did they ever offer all three simultaneously?� I think they dropped the 5-speed about the time they picked up the AWD and/or the blower.� Further discussion of this best done by PM.

I do not disagree with you about the selection of a Previa, by the way, but Syncro lust has a life of its own.� Besides, a Syncro would be more easily dieselized compared to the Previa, and that better fits in with my inter-Apocalypse (Mayan and Zombie) considerations.

Regarding harmony, the thought of replacing an old vehicle with an equally old vehicle is anathema to certain members of this household.

�� Yes, but only if you replace the Mopar with a Toyota Previa
supercharged 5sp AWD for around $1000, rather than trying to configure and
$upport a Syncro as your daily driver......
