I got my wife a 2013 Legacy 2.5i last year and its been a great car and does better in the snow and ice then my 1 ton Cummins powered Ram on 35's.

Another reason I need to get mother to change out cars - I know the belts lasted but with the chain I can be assured she is good to go and it sounds like I can sell her on the CVT with the better fuel mileage. Plus I like the new body style on the Outback better than hers. Hers reminds me of the old Baja trucks.
