Oh please, coming from Howard Dean? That is rich.

Neutral: Is Cadillac’s Dealer Strategy The Right One?

“The Chevy Equinox—wait, keep reading!”

If I was mega wealthy and wanted a winter beater, sure, otherwise it’s major CP.

Exactly, I would rather have bought a Legacy GT wagon, but they quit making it because it will only sell in the numbers that this VW will sell. They changed the Outback to be what the majority of people are looking for, you can hate it all you want but it was smart.

CP.

I am bald, need hat, thanks.

Fuji Heavy Industries is secretly pissed that SsangYoung Musso beat them to the ugly.

No arguement from me for anything you said, except I take care of my cars. My outback is my all weather commuter car. Do I like the CVT? No. I don’t care, it’s mileage is ok for what it is. My VW experiences were awful. Bad luck of the draw I guess.

Depends on what your experiences have been. Subaru has been excellent for me, VW has stranded me, multiple times with 2 different cars. As they say, your mileage may vary.

any money there is a small 2-cycle 1 cylinder engine that burns bunker oil hidden in every wheel hub.

I think their cars are better looking than Subaru, that doesn’t mean they make pretty cars!

Mine has 60k miles and so far no appreciable oil usage. Conversely, no car has stranded me on the side of road more than a VW. Our experiences are not the same.

agreed, everything VW makes is better looking than any Subaru, but I will not deal with VW reliability. For all the problems everyone likes to bring up about head gaskets, burning oil....... I have owned both over the years, Subaru is a better product all day long, everyday.

If I ran across that on a bike ride I would be all hibbly-gibbly-dribbly-giggly, drop my phone, they peel off, nobody would believe me.

what do they make there now?

Little wonder when the prizm/corrola thing ended that was the factory toyota said “buh-bye” to.

Psssst. Union.....

Like the looks, hate the mechanicals. CP.

The 4x4 reminds me of my old Justy, it would make a great hunting vehicle. Load the dogs in back, throw in the shotgun and bring a friend and go.
