I just don't see how a wagon would allow me to navigate these obstacles. Someone convince me!!!
They do have slightly higher wagons (volvo XC70/Audi Allroad) come first to mind.

Ride height they are in between a wagon and a SUV but you still get a sportier(compared) chassis as well with a car seating position.
