Wow what's the story on this one?

My parents had the Pontiac Bonneville version of this. I remember my 16 year old sister driving us through a torrential downpour when the windshield wipers quit.

Piece of crap!

Trying to relive his first time? Maybe?

There are apartments in NYC that are smaller than the cargo area of this car. So if that is the case he had a lot of space to do what needs to be done!

But did it have the reclining split bench, like the AMC wagons?

Needed a wagon for my brother so he can take his in laws and kids for ice cream.

Bought it in VA maybe 7 or so years ago and drove it home. Fun thing to have lots of thumbs up..

Niiiiice!

I learned to drive in my mom's 440-powered '67 New Yorker.
When she drove it, it got around 13mpg.
When I drove it, it was more like 9mpg.
It's still a mystery as to why
