But if you see a Volvo V70 station wagon, grab it.
Very good insight. Trip was last weekend, and there were about 18 Chevy Impalas on the line, with one base model Dodge Charger and one Ford Crown Vic. All in all, a very sad lineup. I went with a relatively new Imp (3k miles). Asked about the Caddy CTS that was sitting there, and the agent said I could upgrade for a mere $120... but that was over double what I was already paying for the weekend, so I said "Nah, I'll take an Impala - do you happen to have any available?" He didn't laugh...
