Maybe Pat's a lawyer, and that's their company car.

The WIFE and I will probably be in the market for a replacement SUV within the next couple of years. 14 yo grandkid will probably get the RAV. How is the Forester? Only Subies I've been around is a first Gen. Forester when they looked like a station wagon(which died from the head gasket issue) and two WRXs(one which failed a rod bearing) and one Impreza that the youngest kid went through.

Does this one come with Birkenstocks, or Tevas?

Is there a car in your garage without a flat engine?

We looked at these too, but we ended up buying the Rav4 off our lease. The devil you know, although I hate that car.

Our Rav4 is a 2009 with +100k miles, but I still like it. It is a Limited with the V6. It is actually pretty quick and comfy for a small SUV. I would not have a new one. Don't like the design and the four cylinder.

I looked at one of those, but the infotainment system would only play Melissa Etheridge and The Indigo Girls, and the nav database was limited to historically significant Lilith Fair sites.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

Thank god you finally got something to drive, Mike. I was worried you'd have to take the bus.
