The Mercedes E450 wagon has the rear-facing 3rd row as standard equipment in the USA.

Because of course you wanted a wagon with a starting price of $75k without any options.

We legitimately considered it; there are no cars that seat 7 for under $40k new these days, so it's less-than-double the price of the cheapest option.

Totally off-topic, but I actually saw a E450 wagon AMG on the streets the other day. Had no clue they even made one of those. Will only set you back $177k

Awesome. When I was growing up, my parents had a big orange wagon with the Oldsmobile Rocket 455 in it. Kind of like the predecessor to the AMG wagons :)

You could possibly grab a Metris for ~$40k on closeout, though it might be a bit too basic for you.

It's amazing for us.
