We had some pretty good family road trips in the Nash Rambler station wagon. Dad put the seat down in the back and we could stretch out and read our comic books. They didn't worry a lot about seat belts in those days, I guess.

I remember towing a glider across most of Texas with a Rambler wagon. Every time we got over about 50 mph the rig would start weaving. Pretty slow trip. But otherwise I guess they were durable old cars in their day.
That brings back memories of family trips from Texas to Pennsylvania in the circa 1965 Ford Galaxy station wagon with a custom fitted foam mattress in the back for me and my brothers. No sealtbelts for us! Room enough for two to lounge with the third seat down. Suitcases were on top strapped to the luggage rack. We’d move back and forth from the back seat to the mattress during the three day trek from hell. Probably looked like the Beverly Hillbillies.
