The Station Wagon is the player's vehicle that carries the party from Washington, D.C. to Safe Haven. Like the party members, it has its own health bar, reflecting the wear and tear experienced during travel. The player can repair the car using scrap, or at a car garage for money. It is also the first car the player will unlock if the player has the Complete Edition Expansion pack, with no bonuses and is the most balanced car in the game as it has equal stats in speed, durability, and reliability.
Car Supplies[]
It also has three types of supplies of its own: Tires, Mufflers, and Batteries. Each of these supplies are necessary for the normal function of the station wagon. They can break down, get lost or stolen in random events along the journey. Running out of any of these supplies is gravely unfortunate, as the Station Wagon is left stranded in the road until new parts can be acquired through trade.
The Station Wagon can also support up to five upgrades at one time which enhance the car's performance in various ways. Here is a list of all station wagon upgrade:
