I’ve written this before, but since I have to carry around my bass and baseball stuff all over, I love driving my station wagons. I’ve owend 2 Ford Taurus Station Wagons, a Toyota Tracel, and a Subaru GL. Now that my trusty 1994 Ford Taurus is not looking too promising to survive this coming winter, I am looking for a new one. But I am finding out, with popularity of Minivan and SUVs (which I despise), station wagons are rare nowa days…

There are cars like Scion xB ($14,610 MSRP) that bills itself as wagon, and there are Honda Element (MSRP $18,900). Rhough their prices are right, they are little bit too “cool” for me… Then there is Dodge Magnum (MSRP $23,620), and Subaru Outback (MSRP $21,995), and Audi A4 Advant ($31,340 MSRP… Yeah…)

I guess Boston.com is having one of those special section in cars section as this is columbus day weekeend.

I guess there is such thing as Crossover SUV’s which are “…with a sport utility vehicle appearance but is built upon a more economical and fuel-efficient car-based platform.” Maybe that is worth taking a look…?

Just realized this is my first post in over two month. Whoa, time flies. My last post was before Jason Varitek’s injury… for those who know me, I love my new job and since now I work late shift and weekend, I get to spend a lot of time with my son and we love going to the new watertown library. I post weekly on my Japanese Red Sox and MLB podcast (subscribe via iTunes here, please!), and collecting Ichiro Suzuki baseball cards like crazy. Life is good!
