Top 10 Best Station Wagons: 2019
Station wagons aren’t as popular in North America as they once were.
In the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s, big comfy wagons were a staple of suburban life. The wagon has fallen out of favor over the years, though, first facing competition from minivans in the 1980s and 1990s and then becoming almost obsolete in North America once crossovers and SUVs rose to popularity in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
