Nah, I'd be worried about getting that greasy too. It's really
the "WTF, it's only a truck" thing. The only other vehicle I've
been looking at is a full-size cargo van. That works.

As I've said recently (and been quoted nationally <ahem>) SUV's are
minivans for people who can afford $15K of denial. I agree.
Nonetheless, I'd rather own a Range Rover than an Astro. I just can't
afford either.
