riiiight... more power, quicker, faster, better looking, handling, i could go on and on. the Jeep just blows it away. i test drove one after i got rid of the ssei and all i could say was 'wow' and holy 's$!^.' felt far quicker then any of my past cars, thats for sure.

TB SS- It generates 390 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft

Jeep SRT8- Horsepower: 420 and 420 lb -ft

witch has more power ;)

An eagle wagon isn't sporty at all.. Not like subbie's.

Crossovers are nice because you get great hauling space, car like safety and 'ok' mileage. essentially minivans that aren't a minivan.

If I put the rear seats down, I have a ton of room. You have to remember, no wagon is a real sporty car, not even a Subaru.

I beg to differ. They might not be "sporty" in that they aren't that fast on the road, but they were far more useful in mild-to-moderate off-road situations than anything that Subaru put out then, or for years afterward. And they're certainly better than any of the new Jeep crossovers... :x
Remember that the Eagles used an actual 4WD system, not AWD, which was still in it's infancy in the seventies.
