The reason for the “station wagon” going ways was the CAFE standards.
The modern SUV is based on a TRUCK chassis, and thus not restricted in MPG
ratings from the US government.
If you have a “station wagon” that is a “car” it is thus subject to CAFE
standards.
Ford only makes the Mustang as a
I believe it was Henry Spenser at a USENIX conference that said “Never
