I've never really cared too much about 4 doors, but with a baby on the way, an 11 year old, girlfriend and big dog, I need something to cart everyone around. The criteria is, it has to be low, more than likely I'll bag it. I have to safely be able to put a car seat in it. Has to be relatively roomy. I'm usually pretty set on GM vehicles, but I know Fords have some good looking stuff, just not that familiar with what's out there. Right now I'm thinking 4 door or wagon. What's everyone cart their family around in?
We have really enjoyed having the Ranch Wagon on the road this past year,,plenty of room for the grand kids and all the additional stuff you need on a outing. HRP
Yikes Independant- I read that too quick and thought you had an 11 year old girlfriend I have twins plus my wife so I got a 64 chevelle wagon (original v-8/four speed)and a slightly ot 68 suburban (lowered 2 wheel drive, small block/4 speed) for when the family is coming.
My 53 has two car seats in the back all the time. Hopefully this time next year, I'll have the "family car" back on the road so it'll be easier getting the little ones in and out.
Love the Chevy So did your 53 come with seat belts? My 49 Chevy didn't, neither did my 51 Dodge. I'm thinking I'm at least going to do a 4 door, and if I can find a good deal on a wagon that'd be ideal.
Our kids are now adults with their own family's, our other cars are all two passenger but when friends visit or we need to haul stuff around the wife's grocery getter is the ticket.
