I could keep a Chevy longer, I just don't want to have the maintenance costs 
that you've had in your 24 years with the van...  I may feel differently when 
I don't have a payment on it...  My luck is that every time something will 
fail I'll be in the middle of Arizona or something, on my way to Topeka...
