Exactly this. How the hell do you get a real grown-up job as a writer when you don’t know the difference between weary and wary? Nepotism? Couchwork?

This. Have owned every major marque (at least if you’ll count pre-Chrysler AMC-Jeep as Chrysler) but keep coming back to Subaru and Mazda because they both have actual sense of self and yet are cars made by and for normal people. Tesla has the self awareness but they’re not really a working Joe’s car company. We…

Late to the party, but 100% Subaru Outback. I’m 6’4” —all legs— and it is stunning how much room is still available in the back seat behind me. By far the best tall car I’ve ever driven. The WRX isn’t a bad call, either, if you don’t need to carry passengers (I basically consumed all the rear-left legroom when I drove…

Nope. We experienced *exactly* this scenario a few weeks ago. 2018 Outback Premium, 4800 off MSRP with nothing more than an email quote.

This is what I did for my daughter. It was actually $600, but since it also included the letters CRX and si I splurged. Didn’t hurt that it came with 30 years of service records. And now she knows how to drive stick even in a car with a hugely erratic idle (for the life of me I can’t figure out how that jumble of…
