"It's not that the PO's wife didn't like the van (she love it, I think). It's that they got stuck one too many times by the side of the road, wallet out."
Oh, I forgot about that. To be fair, I have to say that both of our vanagons have Subaru engines. Before Betsy was a vanaru, I would never even take the kids to a drive-thru window because I was always staring at the blasted blinking coolant light. And I never strayed beyond a reasonable towing distance. It's been several years since her transplant surgery. Thanks to my gifted and talented hubby, I've come to take her reliability for granted.
