Agreed. Small wagons make much more sense than SUV's, the wife use to have an Accord Wagon back in the mid 90's when they still made them. When your third kid comes along the practicality of a small wagon goes out the window. I do not NEED the SUV either, I just couldn't bring myself to get a minivan when the wife already has an Odyssey. Believe me, lugging 4 teenage boys (just got back from doing just that) several times a week to school for car pool or 5 neighborhood kids to select baseball practice (each with a body bag size amount of gear) gives one an appreciation for such automotive largess.
