We get a new addition to the house.  I finally retired my old (1987, original clutch) red Acura for a bigger red car.
This van is exactly what we needed:
- 8 passenger VAN with dual sliding doors (one is powered)
- Separate CD, radio, tape for the back and front.  AND
   with all the radio controls on the steering wheel too.  
  Very nice for long trips.  :->
- Luggage rack, alloy wheels, new tires
- Air compressor built into the back trunk for pumping up
  tires, bikes, footballs and soccer balls.

Most importantly, we can now haul 15 people and their luggage now.  My next step is a school bus.
