@FastestLap, I think SUV's killed off wagons in the US. In general, we like big vehicles. A bigger truck-like vehicle has even more space and it's ground-clearance and 4WD makes more sense to us(also being in a big vehicle gives a sense of being more safe)...
Where Europeans, I feel, like smaller vehicles. Hence why a wagon that has lots of space but still feels small because it's based on a sedan is ideal.... Which is a shame, because cars like the CTS-V Wagon shows we can make a good wagon, just nobody wants them... :/

Why didn't wagon cars in USA catch on as much as they have done in Europe?
