How is this a wagon anymore?

Echoed my thoughts exactly... I have the 2005 Subaru Legacy Wagon... nice little wagon but easily confused with the Outback of the same year. Sadly, they offered the Wagon in the US only that one year.

Was driving along the other day and ended up next to what I thought was the new Tribeca... then I saw the Outback badge and I was shocked how huge it was! OMG!

There was a time I would have considered the Outback as a replacement for my Wagon, but not anymore...
