This sounds like a good plan on the surface but she might interpret it as you wanting to have children (that's normally what people buy minivans for). Then you'll be driving the minivan even when you don't want to and you probably won't be going to the flying field with it very much anymore. LOL</DIV>

<DIV>I either drive the van or ride one of my Harleys to work during the week. There's no Stigma attached to me either. :)</DIV>

<DIV>What I've done is convinced my wife she needs a minivan, then I just borrow it. That way there's no Stigma attached to me :) Of course, I drive a 99 Ford Ranger short bed which is not much of a step up from a minivan. </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Dodge / Chrysler with Stow-N-Go seating. Plenty of room, drives like a car, gets great mileage and it's comfortable on long trips. I hated minivans until I bought my '05 Grand Caravan. Don't worry, you'll get over the minivan stigma the first time you pack 4 airplanes in it. :)</FONT></DIV>
