My husband is not into the wagon idea, and I have to admit it looks from the pictures I've seen like the third row is much less easily accessible than in a minivan.

I have the regular one (an eclass wagon) but am SERIOUSLY considering trading up for the R class (that is the new wagon that is available in diesel). When I bought my wagon in 05, the R class had just come out and finding a used one was pretty hard. Also, my wagon is an 04, which was the last year all scheduled service was included in the warranty for MB. I think accessiblity will always be better in the mini-van...I just don't like them, and I don't like to drive them. I have rented several different ones for road trips and the like, and not once have I felt like - okay, I could drive this every day. But thats just me. I think I may go test drive the R class and if I like it, price a used one (like a year old etc... - let some one else drive it off the lot and take the depreciation hit). My other hang up is that my wagon is paid for and I really don't want a car payment....
