Forester


I have an 08 Forester that I'm now keeping in MT where she'll finish out her days in a on quiet mountain roads. All I've done is change the oil and tires.

Apparently, Subaru hadn't fully fixed their head gasket problem in 08, so I'll soon be on borrowed time (they start leaking around 100k, and I'm at 86k--hence the semi-retirement).

But the new Foresters get significantly better MPG, and the head gasket issue was fixed in '10.

I still think the generation mine is in looks the best, but that's just me. Plus, mine is rated to tow 2400. The new ones are a dinky 1500 (just like the CR-V and RAV4).

That's why I'm adding an Outback as our everything vehicle.

I'm trying to downsize vehicles, selling my Super Duty and Cherokee so I have to have something that can safely pull an Aliner or loaded trailer.
