Subaru AWD is the best for the winters where I live.

The space is great!

I can use it for transporting drum gear or camping in!

Wagons are the best!

2020 Subaru Outback

Love my Subaru Outback!

PROS

Ride and Handling

Handles great even in the bad weather.

Seat Comfort

Most comfortable car I have ever owned. I love the seats, plenty of leg room (I have long legs), and the heating feature is a bonus.

Interior Space

Great for the dogs, and the back seats fold down easily if I have to move anything large.

Styling

Looks nice and I feel proud driving around in it.

Reliability

Never an issue at the auto shop, everything just works.

CONS

Technology and Entertainment

Connection to the infotainment system is hit or miss. I have found if it's really cold it take a while to get connected and stay connected with my phone. When it works it's great.

2017 Subaru Outback

2017 Outback, pragmatic puppy!

PROS

Ride and Handling

Great in snow!

Technology and Entertainment

Tech was in a transition phase as it is a 2017, but added a Hamilton module to bring it up to current standards

Interior Space

More backseat leg room than an XC90.

Value

Dollar for dollar, hard to beat.

Reliability

Seems to be holding to the Subaru reputation

CONS

Ride and Handling

Not going to win on the track, if that’s your thing.

My reliable friend of 5 years

PROS

Eyesight is useful
