    Isn't this what Ray Rice said about his wife? (Badaboom!). Sorry. Off topic. Bad taste. Too soon. Couldn't resist. :)

    But I do feel bad for you. Vehicles are an endless money-suck from the moment you take them off the lot or the diriveway.

    Everyone I've ever known who had a Subaru loved it. I've enjoyed driving theirs, and yearly think about getting one.

    We have an Outback and Lucy loves it. I have a Honda Ridgeline. Seems like Honda and Toyota last the longest.

    I'm looking at Subaru legacies...like the look and want a all wheel drive car for the winter time! I do like honda and toyota but those have been the last cars I've owned

    I just finished building my a subaru Imprezea. it was the regular rs that i swapped all the guts from a wrecked WRX into... just a awesome car. This is our 5th suby... the wifes suby had an oil pump failure early this year but it wasnt too bad to rebuild. All in all ive had the least worrys of all my cars in the Suby. Dead reliable!
