Bullshit. Ford sold millions of Explorers every year in the 90s.

Yah. Plus the bilions of Samurais, Jeeps, Unimogs, Hummers and CRVs.

This is starting to sound like the debate over what constitutes a Sports Car.  In other words, fucking stupid.

You know.......you're right.  I'm shutting up now.   ;)

Why  :confused:

Because the roofline extends back beyond the rear axle, that's why.

What does that have to do with anything

it is the archetype of that body style. Technically station wagons started out as being converted sedans used for picking people up at train stations- they also called them depot hacks.

However, a Berline d'Voyage, while it looked the same in overall profile was built from the start to look like that.

Therefore, your car may be more correctly referred to as a Berline d'Voyage.

The only reason I would buy an SUV over a wagon or crossover is because the only wagons on the market are too expensive, and crossovers can't really go offroad.  Since we lived on the prairies we didn't do any offroading, so we bought a crossover.  Now that we live in the mountains and we want to go offroading, we're going to buy a minivan. :lol:
