I've had my Vanna White for about 12 years now. ('86 westy) in the last month, two people have asked me why my white van is named Vanna White. never did it occur to me that this might happen… ugh! s. other vans in my life (the ex's, good friend's) include: 1/ Lester (that's when he got a dodge tradesman turtle top, i named it) 2/ Vanglorious, or for short, Vangie (another westy) 3/ The Nookie (a chinook) 4/ The Cookie (another chinook) 5/ The Wookie (another chinook)
