    Hello everyone,

    Even though I don't have a wagon right now I've had a lot of them in the past and appreciate how useful they can be. The last one I had was an '89 Pontiac Safari that got too rusty (the windshield frame rusted out, and if you dropped the driver's visor you could look up and see daylight). I've had some Fords ('71 Ranch Wagon and '72 Torino), a couple of other GM products ('77 Impala and '77 Olds), and several B-body Mopar wagons.

    If I had the space and time (and didn't fear divorce!) I'd get an Aspen or Volare wagon with a stick shift. I still regret not buying one new.

    I'm looking forward to being part of the community here.

    Harold

    :Welcome:Harold to the wagon forum. Hoping you can work things out and still get a station wagon.
    When I married my first wife back in the dark ages many said it wouldn't last. Sometimes I don't think it will! Hang in there. Ya never know. :bouncy:

    Glad you joined, Harold! Friends of mine purchased a new Volare Premier wagon when they were first introduced. Within three months they started noticing rust pop through in the tops of the front fenders. The rear fenders started to go shortly after that. Of course, it was their daily driver and they lived in the snow belt, so it saw plenty of moisture and salt.

    Sometimes nice ones from the southwest become available for sale, so keep those dreams alive.
