Great car, and Im spoiled - 2013 Subaru Outback
By msurles1 - March 3 - 4:15 amMy last 3 cars have been Lexus sedans, so Im spoiled. But when it came time for a new car, I wanted more sane payments, and a car more suited to my new home where we get some snow and ice in the winter. I have to say I am thoroughly satisfied with my new 2013 Outback Limited. Its adequately comfortable, smooth, quiet, and solid, and has enough amenities so that I dont miss my Lexus (OK, I do, but not the payments or poor performance in snow). I got the 4, but get the 6 cylinder if you want the full luxury SUV feel.

First car! - 2013 Subaru Outback
By lynncy - January 7 - 12:27 pmAs this was my first car and Im a highly practical person who wants to make sure I make the absolute best decision for me, I drove, drumroll please... 30 cars. I even drove the 2012 and 2013 outbacks back to back to see if I could notice significant differences in the way it drove. I did. Much less body roll and more pep with slightly better gas mileage did me in. So far Ive driven 1500 miles, mostly city. City, Ive been averaging 23 MPG and on the highway I did about 28 with two large adults and all our junk for a vacation. I havent done much off-roading, but I can tell this car would handle it no problemo.
