No more SUV shopping

*please ignore the momentary G class insanity I experienced a few months ago. I'm better now. I think.

Even with the two kids in college, we routinely (on average 2x per month) haul 3 kids and a dog places. We sorta need a large hauling vehicle. I am really bummed the 5 series wagon has gone the way of the Dodo (although with the lack of driving involvment on the F10 maybe it doesn't matter), as we'd really like a wagon i/o an SUV of any sort. Given the choice, I'd always take a wagon over same spec sedan, but unfortunately, that choice rarely exists.
