     HEH!!! I notice from the plate on the side of my '76 that
     it turned TWENTY YEARS OLD last month -- does ANYONE
     from "Automobile" magazine believe that ANY Chrysler
     minivan is going to be rolling as a daily driver in 20 years?!?!?


Sure - but it might be in the form of 2-3 H*nda C*v*cs (after its 
recycled, of course...)   ;-)
