I've had 4 Toyotas, 3 Nissans, 2 Hondas, 2 Saturns, a Mazda and a smart. My 2023 Subaru Outback is by far my favorite.

Here in the U.S. (Tennessee), I've owned Subarus for the past 25 years straight. The 1999 Legacy GT 2.5 had over 200,000 miles when I traded it in. The 2002 Legacy Wagon had 400,000 miles on the odometer when I traded it in. My present 2014 Crosstrek has just cleared 150,000 miles, and my 2016 Forester now has over 95,000 miles. ZERO issues with all of them on normal maintenance [5K oil changes, 50K transmission & differential fluid changes, 24K coolant changes, 3 year battery replacement, 100 K spark plug and PCV valve replacement]. When I traded the 200,000 mile Legacy GT in, the suspension and steering were so rock solid, it could be steered with one finger at 75 MPH on Interstate highway driving. When I traded the 400,000 mile Legacy GT in, the suspension and steering were so rock solid, it could be steered with one finger at 75 MPH on Interstate highway driving. I've never had any other vehicles I've owned remain that structurally solid at high odometer readings; [Fords, Chevys, Toyotas, Nissan, Suzuki]. That is why I've owned Subarus continuously for 25 years now.

I've owned cars from most manufacturers including Datsun, Fiat, VW, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Ford, BMW, Volvo and Mercedes but never owned a Subaru until last year when I treated myself to a brand new Forester in Autumn green metallic. What a treat it has been.

We have a 2022 Forester limited. Based on that we traded our 2018 CrossTrek for a 2025 Forester limited..no test drive…just a straight up trade based solely on how much we liked our 22, 18 crosstrek, 2011 outback…great cars.

I own a 2017 Forester. I bought it with 18,000 miles on the clock. It now has 118,000 miles on the clock. I have had two sets of glow plugs and 3 wheel bearings. Nothing else. Quite simply staggering.

Subaru is a very, very, very specific brand.<br>Unlike all other brands, not a single costumer isn't by accident!

My outback is utterly reliable, practical, comfortable and yes even enjoyable. Great car.

Have a Subaru Outback and had it for 6 years - nothing has gone wrong - keeping it forever hopefully - perfect for North Yorkshire winters !

With all Subaru's there always more thought and consideration that go into the actual everyday user experience inside the cabin, not the flashiest but nearly always the most user friendly to use, and also some effort is made in the servicing aspect, there is good engineering involved, everything accessible and removable with minimal effort. Lastly, Subaru really priorities the safety aspect, full time AWD drive, high build quality and great physical safety systems.

I have a 2015 Outback. The more I drive it, the more I appreciate the engineering in it. Everything on the car is built with functional purpose that's hard to define; but lacking in most other cars. If I had to replace it I would most likely get a Forester. If.
