I don’t want a Suburban to haul my perfect nuclear family of 2.5 kids. That is too main stream. If only there was something similar out there that was way cooler.

Well, I have found it. This is a Checker Aerobus. The Checker Aerobus is a fantastic family vehicle. It has plenty of cargo space and of course plenty of seating. No more children fighting for the bench seat. They can have and entire bench for themselves, and it won’t even impede the cargo space. Need a prime vehicle for a bar crawl or pilgrimage, look no further.

The Checker Aerobus was essentially an elongated version of their popular Marathon taxi. It was used primarily in large cities transporting people from the city center to the city’s airport. The Aerobus was built from 1962 - 1977.

The Aerobus came in 2 body styles (Sedans and Wagons) and 2 door options (6 or 8 doors).

Well look at that. There happens to be one for sale for an all too much money for me right now price of $13,500. This particular example needs a bunch of help in the interior which will equate to remodeling a small house, but I would take it over a mainstream Suburban.

I saw a normal Checker sedan in a parking lot just yesterday and I almost lost my mind.

That has all the look of a one-off crazy custom thing and yet, it’s not.

I want one.

“It appears the B-pillar has rusted through and is no longer supporting the roof”

“Good thing I have 5 more pillars.”

Yes, just like when I am 80 and required by law to get a Cadillac DeVille, I choose one with 6-doors. I wanna be different.

I want to be different like the guy down the street from me who has to be close to 80 and until recently, was driving a Porsche 944.
