"Heck I'd like to buy both but my wife will likely kill me for showing up with just one of them." Hey Mark,

I'm curious .... why are you concerned about getting 2 vans to add to your stable?

I don't get: 1/ what's worse than death if you get one? 2/ after the death you'll get with the one, you'll never know what it is you get by getting 2.

... don't worry, be happy.

Seriously, as has been expressed, financially you'll be quite far ahead by getting both of them to create one very nice van, while having a store of parts at the ready for ongoing maintenance. That shouldn't be too hard to put on a $$ spread sheet and show her the economic value. Shop time around these parts is $85.00 hr., minimum.

..... IF you have the space to do that.

bob .... be sure a keep us posted on what it is that's worse than death, with the acquisition of the 2. (wink)
