Have you ever driven or ridden inside a station wagon before?

[Still-alive]

These used to be everywhere in the 70s and 80s until SUVs started takking over. have you ridden in one? maybe driven one yourself before?

I own a station wagon actually

I've driven one before

I've only ridden in one, never drove one

I've seen them around but never been in any

I've never seen a station wagon in person before

I owned a 1962 Chevy station wagon. It was okay to drive around. You could put the back seat down and go camping in the back. I didn't own that car very long started having mechanical problems. I think car was about 10 years old when I first got it. What I own another one. No. I own several minivans and I love them. Is able to get all my children and the car with least problems. In a station wagon your shoulder to shoulder. A lot of times fights broke out between siblings. I also own an Ford expedition.. I love my Subaru. It gets around a lot better than my Ford expedition. I get approximately 36 mi to gallon with my Subaru. And my Ford expedition I'd be lucky to get 20 miles a gallon.

When they fight tie them to the roof rack for 20 miles. They will never fight again.

[Pudsmucker]

@DubiousIntentions it was quite tempting.

Drove, rode in, there's a ford wagon that stopped being made in... 2010 I think? I'm thinking of getting one. The shagging wagon is an amazing ride. I like minivans, police cruisers, and station wagons, though station wagons combine the speed of a cruiser with the people packing ability of the minivan.

Granted if I have any more kids I'll have to just buy a shuttle bus... lol

Some of those pictured are hatchbacks, not station wagons. Now this is a REAL station wagon.

Rode in one as a kid. Owned and drove one in the 1980s.

I love station wagons.

A few of my childhood friends' parents had "wagons".

I used to love riding in them, sometimes going camping (cool).

As I reached driving age, I drove a couple of them a few times.

They were perfect for the times in which they were produced.

As time goes by, I'm even beginning to think they're sexy.

[FunkyMonkee]

Yeah, back in the `60's or `70's, possibly the `80's. They were mostly made for people with large families, especially if they traveled a lot. By the late `70's, everybody HAD to have a van!! By the late `80's, those vans became what we have, now. It's a car, but it's a van.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Yes. My first car was a 1981 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park LS station wagon, with the dual-facing rear seats in the enormous wayback, the giant roof rack, the two-way tailgate (opened down and to the side), and the simulated wood paneling all around the car.

[SnowedIn]

Oh yeah!!! My parents owned one and I drove in it for YEARS.

It looked like this:

Ford's version of "That 70s Show's" Vista Cruiser.

Awesome!

I love wagons.

[SnowedIn]

That was the famous Ford Country Squire. It was a little over 17 feet long which was almost as long as the standard garage back when it was made.

[nolabels]

Nice!

[BoopBoopBeep]

It was like the pre-hatchback before it crawled out of the sea. The original beast could never support it's size on dry land that well.

My dad owned a 1963 rambler station wagon. That thing broke down every holiday. He finally got rid of it in 1978. Traded it in for a chevy nova 4 door sedan. My first car was a Ford country squire station wagon. Drove it for a year

[najekim]

Own one of these from 1983 to 1988. Then traded it for a Mazda 626 LX hatchback.

Plymouth Volare Station Wagon

[bolverk]

I used to own one, a Fiat Tempra SW 1.9 ltr turbo diesel, a good bus.

[Likes2drive]

Been a long time since I drove one and used to ride in one as kids often, we had a few of them over 40 years ago

[art84]

Always wanted to if my parents bought one instead of a truck or a car.

[Ptrmbrs88]

Who hasn't been in one, at least once in their lives?

[Blueeyes81]

Back in the day my friends parents had one.

[menina]

I've seen them around but I've never been in any.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I've always wanted to ride on one.

[call_me_scar]

To my knowledge I've never been in one

[call_me_scar]
