They are nice to work out of if you can stay organzied.  I looked at Toyota,
and my own experience with oder Toys has been good, but I got gunshy when a
dealer was all gungho to sell me some back in the 90s when they had a sot
frame (breaking) and a bad head/gasket blowing out in back to back years.
They were like, "Yeah., we can make you a great deal on those."  I could not
have afforded the down time for either one when it went so I passed, and
I've had an aversion to Toyota ever since... or atleast that dealer.

Yeah, but I know me.  A van would quickly turn intop a no man's land.  My
dad runs his handy man business out of a panel truck, and even with floor to
ceiling bins and shelves he still suffers from a certain amount of that, and
he is better organized than me.
