Hi Joy, That's a lot of stuff you're going to need to unload... Bicycle, Kayak, dishes, food storage, bedding... Once you factor in the cost of accomodation and restaurant meals to touring in a Prius, the maintenance on your Vanagon will seem like a tremendous bargain. To maintain an older vehicle does require that you scale back your demands sometimes. But life in the slow lane can be every bit as fulfilling... Think about it for a while... do you really prefer a drive-through menu to home cooking?
