We've had access to the Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge for a while now. This Station Wagon surprised us more than the Washington or the Valley Forge. Is it worth the price? Or should you buy a different Station Wagon? Read ahead to find out!


I was giddy when I heard we were testing Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge. On the track this thing is fast. How fast? Notice there are no pictures on this page? That fast! This is one of the fastest Station Wagon I've ever been in. As impressive as that sounds, the 155 hp @ 4082RPMs 4976 cc V4 engine is even more impressive. Peddle to the metal, this baby will do 98 mph easily. And in a straight line we hit a 19.438s 0 to 60 mph! If that wasn't enough with the 160 lb-ft of torque will melt the tires off the rims. When hooked to a trailer, this baby will haul an amazing 22 lbs! The handling characteristics of the Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge is borderline acceptable for a Station Wagon. We wouldn't buy it for a tracking or narrow city streets. But for most people, who care little for driving, it is fine. Mommy can I keep it? Please?!


The Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge's interior is well designed. The seats have enough support to get you over a long trip, and the material qualities, while not amazing, are more than adequate. Many optional features in other vehicles are standard here. This leads to an overall nice experience inside the Valley Forge.

The Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge gives you a sense of home away from home. With 50 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space the Valley Forge feels like a second living room. Which was what Philadelphia Motors was probably thinking when they made this vehicle. "Lets make a vehicle that people could live in." Well Philadelphia Motors thank you, because after my wife threw me out, this is my new home. And let me tell you, it rocks!

While not exactly handmade, Philadelphia Motors did put a bit of extra work into the Valley Forge and it shows. Panels actually fit and are made to last. The finish doesn't fade in the sun, and all the bolts have washers. It begs the question why buy a lower quality car every 5 years, and not buy the Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge which should last a few generations?


The Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge was designed with longevity in mind. The vehicle is sturdy and easy to maintain. It will last as long as you want it.

Whether or not the Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge is an energy company conspiracy or not is up for debate. What is certain is the Valley Forge awful fuel mileage of 15.3 mpg will certainly drive up energy stocks!

With some focus on safety, Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge has been able to outshine most in its class. It almost makes you believe the marketing hype that Philadelphia Motors does actually believe in the safety and security of your family.


When it comes to Station Wagon there should be only one vehicle to think of. Have you thought of it? Did you read this article? It's the Philadelphia Motors Valley Forge the best Station Wagon I have ever driven! And the best one you've ever read about!
