Not that I respect
Consumer Reports much, but it is nice to see some national recognition for the brand ...
CNN Article here.
Fun to drive: Impreza WRX/STI
Small SUV / SUV Less Than $30,000: Forester
All other categories were won by Japanese nameplates (mostly Honda). Not a single American or European nameplate in the list. Although, several of the Hondas are actually assembled in North America ...

Yeah, the forester has been:
Top of its class in CR for a while now.
Best in class for 5 star front and side crash rating.
Car and Driver's top pick for Small SUV's in the "5 best trucks" category for 3 years straight now.
I like my forester.

I do feel pretty good about owning a Subaru and riding metro ever day. with the amount of miles you can put on a Subaru with proper maintenance, it should last me for a good while after it's paid off. even if I did get a 5 year loan.
