Why not carry it in style with room to spare in these 3 big beautiful station wagons?

...........sorry Moe (Barry?).........just the sight of 3 empty station wagons wouldv`e stimulated my imagination.......I wouldv`ve tried to pack Black Bart,the standard array of dinosaurs,Sky King,Roy Rogers et al ......run `em all out onto front porch and back a few times,all the while making that motor noise
..........never been to Tibet,so i`m just speculating on THAT part

....if I may,
I think what John is alluding to is the fact that in Tibet, especially for most of the 20th century, society was cut-off or denied access to "the real world." The indigenous population had little knowledge of anything modern.
If any Tibetan kid would've seen those 3 big & beautiful station wagons in 1959, their brains would've been over stimulated for "like 3 weeks."
If this doesn't accurately explain John's obscure reference than, I too, am clueless. 😬 😬 🙄 🙄

thank you Christopher.....without my good friend Jack Dodds to whisk in,offering lucid explanations with names changed to protect the innocent,I`m sometimes at a loss here

@john-barry Understood. Verbose posture unwittingly can foster pedantic verbiage which often deflects candid insight, speaking parenthetically of course. 😏

In 1959, the Communist Chinese brutally put down/occupied a protest/demonstration and annexed Tibet.
On a much more lighthearted note , gee whiz, I don't see my favorite color combination in a 1959 Chevrolet wagon ! Surely, someone has such a vehicle ?!?

if you must offer your opinion here Mike....please speak parenthetically.....several of us are right on the verge of looking that one up

True. My initial comment was going to be about that Chevy wagon.... it's looks a bit "stubby" to me. 🤔

They are all beautiful station wagons and certainly these versatile automobiles were approaching the height of their popularity in the USA.

The 1:1 DeSoto is 220 inches long, the Mercury 219 inches, and the Chevy 210 inches so that might explain it...
