    I have a 96 estate wagon with the tow package. Has 178,000 miles on it and I’ll never sell it.

    I've been daily driving a 95 sedan roadmaster for the last year and a half and i love it. Outruns my friends prelude, can fit a kitchen table in the trunk, even on the sedan, and it's by far the most comfortable thing I've ever driven. I cut the exhaust off mine so it's loud as balls too. Sadly it's rusting away and has gotten to the point that it's not safe to drive. But i will be getting another one in the future, no doubt about that. Great video, great car, and gorgeous color, my favorite 90s color

    Your review made me happy. I will say, the last car to be made with real wood paneling was the 1958 Roadmaster. 59 onward was fake lament paneling.

    • @marka1422

    My dad always bought GM station wagons. The first one I remember came into the world around the same time as me. Later they would get handed down to me, and I was driving one as recently as 2005.
    May not have fully appreciated them, but now that they're gone, I really miss them. Might not want one as my daily driver, but would love to have one for fun. Would probably make my local mechanic very happy.
