Wagon Stoke

[BmillsSkier]

yep



I do 2 of these trips a year with the family. 7th pair of sticks were in the trunk. I tune all the shit and I’m the only one that could tell the difference anyway; but the drive was clear conditions…

Well done!

I'll take the V10 RS6 Avant that we never got here please.

My BiL has them on his Defender and I have to say, they look great.

I think once every SUV went crossover things like that were viewed as unnecessary on most any car, truck or wagon. Out of curiosity I just looked and even a new Suburban doesn't have mud flaps now.

Such a shame; and trust me it’s a wagon - stated as such on title! - I’ve got a full size sleeper sofa loaded in back with room to spare.

^ And a bench seat!

[BmillsSkier]

That thing has its own zip code. Nicely done Aldo.

(The Steelie is a nice touch too)

I can’t see it, but there’s a matching armchair behind the sofa, right? [emoji106] Suburbans were original definition of “cargo capacity”

Can confirm it works great for taking the whole fam on a small roadtrip to go skiing.

I grew up driving a 91 suburban with those same diamond plate flaps and running boards. Love to see it!

Got my radiator fixed. $1100. Billed at three hours but my guess is a good pro is 90 minutes or less. So it is with good mechanics so busy these days. I watched a video and it’s not difficult but there’s a lot to get right.

The car drives so good now with the new shocks. It’s on rails.

This was driving through the neighborhood.



White wheels and white box may be a bit much though.

Meh, I saw at least 3 yesterday. Granted the NY Metro area is a hotbed of incredible automotive examples so I see some of the most amazing rigs on a regular basis.

Apologies for posting an example of the current best wagon in the ‘wagon stoke’ thread.

Edit: I see that your life has become a series of endless annoyances. Hopefully that changes and we can get back to posting nice wagon pics here without complaints.

What is that box? Not saying I like it. But I have no idea what it is either….

It’s a Phantom One box. It’s this car.

Yeah, sorry but I had a terrible week. Started with my dad calling me crying to say goodbye on Saturday, then the dog went from fine at 2am to dead by 6pm on Monday, then Dad took a dive and knocked himself out Tuesday night, then daughter #1 got a flat yesterday and when I got there to help her found out the jack had no handle to crank it up and the 2 in my van were too tall to get under the little thing so I sat there in the rain waiting for AAA while she went home with the wife. Today is getting new rubber for the Kona and firing up the shop vac for a few hours to suck water out of the basement because another 1.5 inches of rain this week added to the 70" since June has the place thoroughly waterlogged. Oh and, it's raining again. An hour before that post I found out that a $70k gig I've been working towards for 3 months fell through so that helped my mood too.

I could never pull that off but I like it. Just take the sticker off and it’s clean as fuck.

[bfree]

Vibes, gravity, hang in there.

I'm fine with the box but those wheels are fugly and obviously it doesn't have ground clearance for more than 4" of snow.

Can also confirm that the back seat is not enough bigger than the a4’s to avoid bitching by my 3 kids when they all have to sit back there. Future trips will be in the wife’s SUV.

Hawt.

That’s a lot of shit. Hope it turns around for you soon.

I agree about the wheels after seeing Art’s pick. Never got a good look driving behind it.

What they really need to do is put coilovers on it so they can lift it for winter, and mount some higher profile winters on a set of these:

I agree on the wheels now too.

Those ^^^ are rad and would look so good on that thing.

Those wheels look really good. The whole kit does.

OZ look the part, but Braid are the real deal:
