Why have they seem to have gone by the wayside. I think it is wrong that people buy these little suvs that have less rooom then a wagon and get worse milage. I have had three Volvo wagons over the years and they have been great. It seem like people don't want to be seen in a wagon, so they buy the most compromising vehicle that they can. I actually think that the MB wagons as well as the Volvo Turobo wagons are quite nice.
