    Neat - not sure of the choices, but I like most of them, and the fact that they are focused on wagons.

    I didn't look at them all, but I've always liked those Volvo 240 turbos...

    I'm glad to see the Vista Cruiser made the cut.

    I predict that the station wagon will, once again, attain the status of "The Great American Car"....as it should.:yup: But, with today's global push from the dumbasses in Washington...we will also be over run by foreign competitors. Not a bad thing but....I just want the old days back when American cars ruled!:thumbs2:

    The author, Jason Kambitsis, seems to know his wagons.
    Maybe he should get to know us........

    No Country Squire. That's wrong.

    I must admit, KK, I was thinking the same thing about a Squire.

    Yep Fox, I too pine for the days when American cars ruled. I don't think we are going to see that happen again for a very long time, not in my lifetime I suspect. There is a sense of pride, though, when I drive my wagon down the highway and the people in the SUV's and fer'in cars are waving, giving thumbs up, taking pictures - sort of helps one through the day;)

    Mercedes AMG E55 or BMW M5 Touring? In a heartbeat.

    Although, they need to bump a couple from the list and add the Audi RS4 and RS6 estates. :)
