Is choice such an awful thing?

If you want a wagon, go buy one. If my next-door neighbor wants a sedan, he should by all means buy one.
What I don't get is why the fact that you like wagons and my neighbor likes sedans means I can't buy a hatchback.
Perhaps someone at Saab can explain this to me?
And to answer your question, the reason I like a hatchback is that I think it's the best compromise for my situation. A sedan doesn't meet my needs when I want to transport a big new TV, or get the lawnmower serviced. OTOH, a wagon is larger than I need most of the time, and I don't want to carry that extra weight around the 95% of the time I'm *not* carrying a TV or a lawnmower.
And I couldn't care less that hatchbacks aren't the trendy thing right now. If I wanted trendy, I'd buy an Expedition (and stock in Exxon :^))!
