For the first time since the Eisenhower administration, Volvo no longer sells a mid-size station wagon. Though the V50 and various crossovers remain, the iconic descendant of the Amazon, 145, 240, 740 and 850 has had its Viking burial. It's probably because nobody outside of the Stockholm police department has ever bought a brand new Volvo station wagon — we swear they churn them out in Gothenburg with a tear in the leather, broken AC and 110,000 miles on the odometer. Hence, the absence won't really be felt until 2035, when college students and Berkeley residents start looking for a 2011 model.
