Mercury Commuter Years produced: 1958-1962 Original starting price: $2,903 If you got to grow up in one of these streamlined, finned, pink or teal beauties, you grew up with an inflated expectation of what a wagon could be. A two-door wagon at a time when that just didn’t happen, the Commuter gave buyers a Lincoln V8 engine at a deep discount from the Lincoln brand. It was form over function, which is why it would become a four-door everyday wagon before its demise.
