The Best Bang 4 Buck
by Zane on 10/23/2025 7:13:52 PM
My 05 Forester has been my favorite car I've ever owned. It's extremely easy to work on, yet also reliable. Over 3 years I've had no major repairs, and have never been left stranded. It handles very well for the size, and is extremely capable in all types of weather. I will own this car until it falls in half; Not because I have to, but because I want to! - 4.0
