Overview

Let's set the record straight: The 1994 Ford Aerostar Wagon, including the Eddie Bauer version we tested, isn't really a wagon. It's a comparatively large, high-off-the-road minivan. But considering its classy exterior, posh leather interior, stable ride and agile handling, it was difficult for us not to regard the vehicle as sort of a Land Rover with snob appeal.

The extended-length Aerostar Eddie Bauer Wagon (aka minivan) we tested had an MSRP of $27,727. That's toward the hi end of the minivan price bracket, but we thought it was justified by the fact that our test vehicle was absolutely loaded. The Eddie Bauer equipment package included a full complement of power assists, an AM/FM stereo with a cassette player, air conditioning, a muscular 4.0-liter V6, a computerized 4WD system and more. Our test vehicle was also outfitted with a high-ratio limited-slip axle and a seven-passenger seating/convertible bed option. Other than a trailer-towing package for boating or camping mavens, not much more could have been added to our high-end test Aerostar.
