| The gas crunch is almost upon us, the popularity of Station Wagons is back, people are feed up with truck like SUV's and associated high prices and we are in the midst of an economic slow down. What's my point, simple, why doesn't Ford take a bold step and reintroduce a full sized Crown Victoria Station Wagon? It shouldn't involve that much additional engineering to adapt a square box on the back of the current Crown Vic platform and certainly the tooling costs wouldn't be that great. I know there are a lot of people out there, wishing someone would make a full sized American Wagon again, I being one of them. (I'm still hanging onto my 91 Mercury GM Station Wagon, that has 172K miles on it and I'm holding my breath waiting for a new full size wagon to be introduced.) Come on Ford, for Heavans sake take a chance. My guess is you will be totally surprised by the acceptance of the idea by the folks feed up and tired of SUV's. I want a car based pickup truck, not a pickup truck based car. Hell, the Taxi cab industry would pay back the develop costs for the vehicle, the first year it would be in production to say nothing of the other service industries in the country. Damn, I want a new full sized American Station Wagon. As an added incentive, Ford is the only company that has a platform and drive line configuration right now that can be easily converted into a full sized wagon. So they have a lock on the market! Come on Ford, do it and I can assure you I will be one of your first customers. I can also assure you, there will be a substantial line behind me also. | |

| Might be ok for hauling a sack of 50lb dog food back from the store, but what are you going to do with a 4X8 foot sheet of plywood? This is the problem with all the Station Wagons on the market today, they are all half size offerings. If you can't stick a 4X8 sheet of plywood in it and close the read door, it isn't a Station Wagon in my opinion. Call it a sports wagon or a dash wagon or what ever, I have no use for one. Ford give me a full sized wagon again ~ PLEASE! | |
