The Subaru Baja is not a station wagon, but it is a crossover.

I really don't see how anyone can call this a station wagon.

Don't make me google for a pic. It's an Isuzu. It's body panels required expensive ceramic dies to shape, and so it got discontinued. That, and it didn't sell so well.

Ah... I was behind one of those the other day and couldn't quite figure out what it was. Still had the dealership tags on it, so looked like someone just had one on a test drive. The rear window visibility seems like it would have been pretty crappy.

So you don't think it is an SUV.

It's a psuedo SUV. Call it whatever the hell you want. It's more car than truck though which makes it a station wagon IMO. Or we could call it a mini-van if you like?
