fulfilled our needs

Our Forester is stylish, functional, and has good storage capability for its size. We looked at the Toyota Rav4 and the Honda CRV before deciding the Subaru was best for us and the best value for the money.

Good vehicle but...

I test drove the 2018 Subaru Forester 2.0T Touring. It has more than enough performance and drives very well. The downside is the interior design is lacking compared to the Kia Sportage or Hyundai Santa Fe Sport.

Love this car!

Love this car to the moon and back! This is my second Subaru and would not consider any other vehicle even if you gave it to me. It's stylish, comfortable, reliable, and serves all my needs.

Best Car I've Owned

This car exceeded my expectations. As a young adult with a new career, I needed something reliable, comfortable, and mountain ready! I love this vehicle in the basic model (I previously owned a premium 2010 Forester) and I loved the price even more.
