Thanks for all responses...

I am not regretting the purchase as it filled the need of more spaces
to stuff things for our move from IL to FL...you wouldn't believe (or
would) how much stuff fits in there...U-Haul's storage trailer was 700
bucks to rent versus (albeit smaller) 150 bucks for purchase of van
and 120 bucks for tow dolly (and a new battery for Vanagon, gas, gas
can, screwdriver, etc) it really fit the bill...even if I were to
trash it, I am still 400 or so bucks ahead versus what the U-Haul
trailer rental would have been...

I am growing closer to removing the comp/collision part of our monthly
insurance on the other 2 vehicles we have...this would probably pay
for the insurance on the 3rd vehicle...

Any other thoughts???
