Dear List,

With Daimler-Chrysler in the act, I wish Chrysler would get a good
conversion package for a 3.8 V-6 Grand Caravan.

It has enought torque to pull my ski-boat across country while cruising
at 70-80.   It would be backed by plenty of parts and dealers in N.A.
In 20-30 years it would have it's own mail list populated by ex-x-gen
(and y and z) survivors who are trying to find something in this world
they can identify with.

A cheap 4 cyl version with one bed, a pop or fixed high-top,  fold out
butane stove etc. could still be made for about 20K.   When bought as a
second owner vehicle this might be the choice of people living "down by
the river  - recycled for, and giving new meaning to the term, "street
people".

I doubt if I will buy a 50K Mercedes and/or 40K VW when the '82 westy
gives up or crashes.  But a peoples camper made on the reasonably priced
caravan/voyager platform would be within reach price wise, give adequate
performance and double as a second vehicle my wife would actually drive.

Makes too much common sense ... so probably infinitely improbable ...
