The famous green station wagon by Matt

If we only could get back that station wagon!  Here is what I remember our family truckster looking like.   Mini vans weren't invented yet so this is the best we could ask for to haul the big Olsen family of 8 in.  I remember the door in the back that would open from the side or fold down.  I also remember the back window rolling down electrically from the front.  In the very back was a seat that came out of the floor and faced the back window.  Of course two of us boys always got stuck riding in this seat.  The three girls got stuck riding in the middle seat.   That always left the front seat between Mom and Dad open for whichever boy was not in the back.  Of course riding up front was always better than riding in the very back.   We used to try to get into trouble to have to sit up front or to say we were car sick.  Everyone thought we made up getting car sick  but have you ever rode facing backwards in the very back of the car?  I remember we always wanted Dad to roll the back window down when we went somewhere but the fumes coming out the exhaust always choked us up so we didn't get to do that very often.  The only time he would open it up was when Huey would drop one of his bombs!
