It’s one of our options... wife likes the forester. I don’t have a clue on what they will negotiate off.
I’m shopping a few other vehicles in the 38-43k range and have some ideas on what they will do.
Back story. 8 month old RDX got totaled about 2 weeks ago by a drunk driver while it was parked. The wife is thinking about getting something other than the RDX.... need a vehicle by this weekend...

No one here is dumb enough to admit it if they have. This is a soccer board thread or possibly one for the OT

You could probably get a Tahoe for that. All of the Jap cars share the same characteristics. They are more concerned about their processes then anything else. So you will get a meh interior and weak engine.

Friend of mine in Butte Larose got one to run up and down the levy road with the all wheel drive and she loves it. They don’t give them away though.

I have a 2016 Forester and have loved it. Love the AWD. Gets fine gas mileage. Tons of room, especially with back seats down. I don’t care about getting it dirty in the field or putting all my hunting stuff in the back.
Edit: Got mine at Harvey Subaru in Bossier. They came down a few grand off sticker if I remember correctly.

Y'all can come drive our Volvo XC60 if that's one in the running. Be tough to find one in the low 40's since they send them to the dealer all optioned out (which is why we special ordered ours).

I've had one, great cars. Disregard all you hear on the OT, I love their vehicles.

Mama BFIV has had two of them, both Legacies. both of them totaled in deer collisions. She bought a new VW Golf this last time. Has higher ground clearance than the Subaru, better fuel mileage, and handling. I will admit that both of the Subies would go well in the snow. Haven't had a snow yet to check out the Golf. The Subaru and the Golf are both comparable in price.

A friend of mine loves Subaru and has had several older one (he a rebuild/project car guy).
As to the Forester, CR loves it, it's the highest ranked SUV that size, rating marginally (84) better than the Honda CRV(83) and the Toyota RAV4(81).
Based on historical surveys for the brand/model the predicted reliability of all 3 is a 5/5. Predicted Owbner satisfaction is 4/5 for the Forester & Rav4, 5/5 for the CRV.
If the consumer reports ratings are of value to you, it seems that you'd be doing good with any of those 3 so the Forester seems like a good investment, but apparently, good luck on getting a decent price.

40 g's on a Subaru? Have you gone mad? You can get a really nice low mile GX for that cheese.

I really like the older outbacks that were barebones.
I looked at them a couple times. I want today they went to a diff engine in the past several years and the jury wasn’t out?

Maybe I'm misreading your OP, but you should get a decked out forestor 2.5 AWD for $30k.
