    Hi, my name is John, and I hail from the Chicago area. I drive a 2003 Saturn LW200, owned new since 2004. I will keep this car until the wheels fall off, as I like the car a lot.

    My love affair for wagons started when I was 5 years old, when my dad bought a 1976 Chevy Caprice Estate wagon. It was our first car with AC, a clock, and a radio. For a family of four, it was great for road trips.

    I sure miss it.

    That wagon also proved its worth at drive-in theatres; when we were tots, my sister and I found refuge on the roof rack for a better view.

    C'mon, John....tell the truth. Your parents strapped you and your sister up there so they could have a little "privacy" at the drive-in!:rofl: ;)
