Can't say how to get a generic wife interested in a Vanagon. We have a
Westy. Mrs Squirrel wasn't enthusiastic about it until very late one night
  while driving up up north of San Francisco and the poor woman was trying
to sleep while I was trying to find a place where we could park. A very
expensive spa near Bodega Bay wanted $300 for the night. One mile farther
we pulled into a camping area on the bay and within 2 minutes a bed was
made in the back and she was tucked under covers. She's loved our little
Westy ever since then.
