	I agree. I've tried to convince my sister to go thie above route.
	But, like most buyers, she's dazzled by the Previa's shape, meaning
	the functionality of the MV/Weekender doesn't prioritize over looks.

	I work with someone that traded an '8* something camper for an MV
	with weekender pkg. (poptop/12V fridge/aux. battery) and while he
	says sometimes they miss the cook hardware, having more seat room 
	and more window square footage is better for a family of 4+.
