From Reid Cunningham: "I have a love for the woodgrain vinyl-sided wagons that existed in my youth. This Mercury I saw in South Hero, VT is the last gasp of those wagons before they all disappeared under the onslaught of the ubiquitous SUV. (AL: At first, the minivan) The liberal use of chrome on bumpers, door handles, the wheel arches and siding surrounds, the roof rack, along with the small opera lights on the B pillar and what must be the last standing hood ornament on any car just make me love this wagon even more. The Mercury cut out in the bumper rubber is the kind of whimsy by some Detroit designer I just have to admire."
AL: we posted a 1990 Ford Country Squire XL, last of the Bombasts.
