If you HAD to drive a station wagon..

..which one would you chose?? I guess the Outback or the Audi wagon would be my choices, but I really like the new Dodge Magnum. The RT has 340 hp Hemi, 18" wheels. I know some (or many) or you probably think its fugly, but I think it looks bad-***. Opinions??

Re: If you HAD to drive a station wagon..

I like the Magnum from most angles except from the front. Looks too much like a Dodge truck. I know that's part of its appeal, but I don't find Dodge trucks attractive. I think they nailed it on the 300C but the Magnum doesn't quite do it for me.
If I had to drive a station wagon, I'd probably get one of those Euro sportwagons (BMW, Volvo, Saab, Audi, etc.).

Re: If you HAD to drive a station wagon..

Forester XT would be the first choice (let's not kid ourselves, it's a wagon). Magnum is cool, but the 300C was the much better design. Dodge is probably feeling really stupid for wedging themselves into such a tight niche with the wagon after seeing how fast the Chrysler is flying off dealer lots. Morons, enough with the trucks and wagons, build me a damn Charger already. And put that 300C chop top on it.

Re: If you HAD to drive a station wagon..

Station wagons are for old "ninnies". The new Dodge does looks kinda cool though.

country squire with the wood siding. ahh, memories.

the magnum does look badass, but probably a little too badass for soccer moms to be driving around.

Re: If you HAD to drive a station wagon..

If I had too have a wagon, it would be the E55 Wagon from Europe with the Magnum SRT-8 that's coming out in the near future as a close 2nd.

Re: If you HAD to drive a station wagon..

I saw the Magnum on the road today driving home. The only word that came to mind was "different". It had a very mean and agressive look to it. Just my thoughts that I thought I'd share.
