What station wagon to get
My boss wants to get a station wagon for work. He needs it to be
-Reliable
-Good on gas
-Not that expensive
What can you guys reccomend?
We already have 2 GMC Astro vans we use for toting around materials and equipment, but he wants a station wagon for myself to drive since I will be going from jobsite to jobsite to help out etc etc.
It wont be used often to lug stuff around, but needs to have the room in case I need to haul a piece of equipment to a site to help out or something.
Any comments on anything?

Impreza is the only one that came to mind for me.
My mom has a Matrix and you can pack a lot more into that thing than you'd think, but it has no power and the mileage isnt as good as youd expect (due to AWD).
What about an Element?

What about Suzuki? I think they still make a wagon.
Wagons are almost extinct though...Aside from Volvo and some German companies.
Focus Wagon???
