I'm 6ft3 and still had plenty of leg room in the back. Not a bad wagon, but as i have no kids or pets it would be a bit over the top.
I have a friend who has just been able to get a 2 year lease on a chrysller town and country for $3600 all to be paid up front - superb deal. 15, 000 miles per year.
I could even resort to that - i'll let him investigate first as it sounds almost too good to be true.

True they are getting better again now but have suffered tremendously over the last 5 years or so.
And in reality they are the same as Jeep - as its all the same company now
