I haven't looked at the TDs lately, but the newer gasser wagons don't seem too bad. I've been on the lookout for a cheap E320 4matic wagon to replace my POS jeep as a winter beater and "learn to drive car" for the kids. The jeep is unsafe for new drivers and I don't want them anywhere near my diesels; and my wife insists on owning one vehicle with AWD/4WD.
