My wife who was driving a Camaro when I met here loves our Westy. To here it is part of the family and selling means any money gotten from the sale will go to a divorce lawyer.

Well, different women are attracted to different things, and that's good for those of us not women. Interestingly, men, especially young ones, persist in the belief that the kinds of cars that men prefer attract women to the men who have them. Behavioral scientists who've studied the matter say otherwise. The only consistent response they found along those lines was a slightly higher preference for the men who have luxury cars, but then only if other signs of wealth come along with the car.

But, one woman I know likes our VW camper, and that one woman is the only one that matters to me. Been that way for 44 years.
