Exactly why I decided to go with my first Subaru. The boxer engine is proven to be in for the long haul as you said.

I am a big fan of buying new and keeping it for 15 years or so. I am confident this vehicle will do that for me.

I am seeing MPG just as advertised. Its a great CUV.

I was lucky because I wasnt planning on buying for a few months but my stupid Kia was getting worse and worse. They took $1,000 off sticker and gave me $3,000 for my KIA. I couldnt refuse that deal since it perfectly put me on the monthly payment I wanted.

Again I was lucky because they are NOT making deals on these right now because they are selling as soon as they leave the boat.
