2011 Subaru Forester 2.5 X Premium review

Dependable and built to last.

September 26, 2023
By Eric from Traverse City, MI
Owns this car

I've owned a 2011 Subaru Forester for years and it has been supremely dependable through northern Michigan weather. Super cold to humid and muggy, it's been a comfortable, reliable ride throughout.
