Review written on 5/1958.
The Station Wagon segment is not for everyone. But the Washington may be the vehicle for you. Philadelphia Motors sure hopes it is. So this week I took a trip down to Philadelphia Motors's headquarters to test out the Washington. Luckily we've also tested the everyone else and the Watchman this year. So we should be able to give you a verdict on how it stands in the Station Wagon community.

The first stop for the Philadelphia Motors Washington was the track. I won't lie. I was scared. This Station Wagon is built for performance. Philadelphia Motors cut no corners when designing this vehicle for speed. The vomit stains on the carpet prove that the 106 hp @ 4624RPMs 2162 cc Flat4 engine roars this rocket to a top speed of 88 mph in an impressive 30.302s 0 to 60 mph. With 97 lb-ft of torque, our smoking wheels were able to tow 22 lbs. I'm guilty wanting to steal this one for my self. On the track you can tell that the Philadelphia Motors Washington is above average when it comes to handling and driveability. Most Station Wagon would not be able to keep up with the Washington on twisty and windy roads. It can almost put a smile on your face.

Nothing says 'You've Made It' better than owning the Philadelphia Motors Washington. It is a palace on wheels. Comfortable seats, firm leather, and lovely carpeting will make you feel like the King or Queen of the road.

Amazingly spacey the Philadelphia Motors Washington can bost 49 cu-ft interior and cargo space. This vehicle is massive compared to most. It's one of our top choices when it comes to practicality.

The workmanship put into the Philadelphia Motors Washington is unparalleled in this market. From its hand finished panelling to ultrahigh quality materials the Washington is truly a work of art that should last a life time. It seems Philadelphia Motors has perfected the perfect.

Dog is said to be man's best friend. But that saying isn't true anymore. I propose the Philadelphia Motors Washington is truly man's best friend. Not once in our long term testing did it need repair. This vehicle was built to last a life time. It is truly a wonder of the world. Centuries from now people will still probably be driving this thing, that's how rock solid it is.

At the pump station you get the feeling that someone over at Philadelphia Motors really wanted to squeeze out every last drop out of this vehicle. And that person should get a raise. The Philadelphia Motors Washington gets an impressive 32.7 mpg! Which means it theoretically pays for it self compared to the competition!

You could really tell the engineers at Philadelphia Motors designed the Washington to save lives. This vehicle not only reduces the risk of being killed in it, but reduces the risk of being killed from it. This vehicle should be looked at as a marvel of preventative engineering.

When you drive the Philadelphia Motors Washington you'll see other Station Wagon on the road and think to your self: Why would anyone buy anything other than a Philadelphia Motors. Simple answer, they're stupid!
