Dear Buckarette, Your friend's husband either made a good decision or a poor one depending on which Porsche he had his rocker sitting on. He must work with the same bunch I worked with when I drove my Vanagon to work for the first time. Frankly, Scarloken, I don't give a damn. I knew was driving a Vanagon because I wanted to and not because I had to. Many of these guys were driving their leased MerzeBeeMDoubleVolvos more for what other people think than their own satisfaction. Besides I had a MerzeBMporch too at the time. I just chose to drive a Vanagon. As for Honda Pilots, don't let your pal hear that it's engine spins the wrong way to be a real Honda. Built by Isuzu, IIRC. Cheers, BenT |
