They are selling them in England already. Jeremy Clarkson likes them.


Wagons are great. What else hauls a neighbor's cello to a concert with ease and still pulls 25 mpg or more, doing it?
Helping your neighbors out with your Outback Jim?


I made some pretty good sized dump runs this last week. The dump charges by the wagon load.... I got weighed for ****s and grins, and I hauled 1.5 tons to the dump.... That is $45 at metered pricing.... But because I am a wagon.... $15.... Awesomeness.


Jim, I bet if you compare the #'s for driving per mile, your gas outback will come out lower. We compared a 25 MPG gas W211 to the 35 MPG Diesel W211, and the gas car was lower because of the difference in fuel price....



I probibally will never give up my wagon.... Well maybe I will for an AMG Hammer Wagon or V70R.
