      Love this Subaru

      by Subaru Owner on 6/10/2026 5:39:32 PM

      I've owned other vehicles and rented many on trips. The Forester wilderness has more power and clearance, gets great gas mileage, and overall is the most dependable. Plus, it looks good! I would choose it again without hesitation.

      Genuinely love my car

      by limes on 3/27/2026 3:06:39 AM

      I bought this car new and off the lot so it had maximum 5 miles on it before I took it home. We’re going on 4 years of driving and I understand the cult following of Subaru’s. No major or moderate issues to report!

    Plus motor vehicle excise tax and license. Prices include $180 dealer doc fee.
