look harder.. they exist. Ford made the focus wagon until 07.
You can’t get crank windows in them but the mazda 6 wagon and mazda 5 (technically a mini-mini van) are an option.
I did. Both Vehix and Edmunds said there wasn't a one for sale for 50 miles around the Silicon Valley (haven't tried Craig's list etc yet, that was just a screen). Similarly, try to find a used Saturn SW2 wagon with less that 150K on it for less that five grand. I've seen $8K!
I'll look at the Mazda, thanks.
BTW, to me, crank windows are a safety feature, but then I guess I'm just one of those weird people who want the windows to work if the emergency is severe enough to kill the electrical system.
