Gee, Dave. My initials are BEST. (no kidding) I am good at a lot of things. As far as my van a more descriptive name BenT. Incidentally my ex's last name is Baker.

How about Terry Kay? I think he must be somehow related to Mary Kay cosmetics. He does have an orange Westy. Close enough to pink.

There's Mike Miller who likes to MILL around in his 85 Westy. Treats his shifter like a peppermill.

HK Sawyer who parctices law down South. He'll cut you a deal or maybe cut you down to size. (yeah, right).

Chris Turner likes to TURN a wrench once in a while.

Let's not forget Kurl Wuzz who can woltz around all day even with his kurlers on. I thnk he should have a van called ManAgin. paybacks a b----- kabocha boy.

BenT to be the BEST
