Matt, You don't say WHY you need to sell a car. Were it I, I'd be inclined to keep them all. Reasoning? 1.) The Vanagon. No explanation needed. But you must consider the source. 2.) The Ford P/U. Gotta have a P/U to move big dirty things. Mine's an old '78 GMC that has about a million miles on it. Burns oil, leaks pwr steering fluid, gets about 10 mpg on a good day. But I gotta have it. It sits probably 360 days/year. But when I need it, nothing else will do. 3.) The Honda. My/our other car is an '84 Eagle. Living in the mountains, one HAS to have a winter car and the Eagle's it. Your Honda can serve the same purpose. Let it slide off the road in the winter. Besides, you say selling it is not an option. Looks like you HAVE to keep all three. BTW, I am reminded of a friend who sold his motorcycle to pay for his first kid's birth. Kid had a kid before he got his promised replacement. Be careful my friend, "after grad school" is open ended.
