    Wagon Stoke

    Ok, so I'm a newly minted wagon lover (yeah I know, late for TGR standards, you EuroSpecAudiRS6AvantTurboDiesel6-speedwithabox humpers), well, technically, it's the wife's car... but anyway I found this article pretty timely. So, what's your wagon of choice?

    If it matters anything, I really like the new XC70; tons more space then our X5 that we traded in, and better mileage, although I've only really driven it on long road trips so far to the beach and tore it up on some sandy back roads.
    I still call it The Jake.

          We've got an e90 sedan that I love so much. Love that look in the wagon. I don't think the F series is as good looking. Nice whip.

          4M, nice stable!

            Been on the wagon for almost a month now, it's been a nice break.
            Move upside and let the man go through...

              I had an 86 VW quantum synchro. That wagon rocked!

                      I have an '06 Mercedes E350 4matic Wagon. Basically the same car 4matic posted but with a 6 cylinder and in silver. Great car. Wish it was stick. Put some Nokian WRG2s on it a couple years ago and it's arguably the best car I've ever driven in the snow.

                        Anyhow I like how calling it a "wagon" rather than a "station wagon" makes it more hip.

                          Elevate tune with downpipe and exhaust. Rocked the socks off my buddies V70R.

                            Bought this gem 3 weeks ago and loving it so far... They did away with the hatch in '15

                            '14 Ice Silver Metallic WRX 5-Door Limited - 5MT, leather, sunroof, HIDs

                            Drive it like a granny and stay outta boost or drive it like a pissed off teenager... Best of both worlds.

                              The day I put the new wheels on wifey's car



                              Previous wagons:
                              '84 245 GL(mine). Had two 12" JBL subs in the back. It was rad.
                              '02 Jetta wagon(hers). It got written off, which is probably good, because with the amount of dog drool in the back, she wasn't going to be selling it.
                              '06 XC90 T6(hers). Traded it in on the Outback. Not technically a SW, but it was closer to a car than a truck.
                              It doesn't matter if you're a king or a little street sweeper...
