Subaru Forester for Sale in Tilton, NH

This was a great car to own. It fit with all of my needs, and was a great buy! Would purchase another one, anytime. Very reliable.

Full disclosure: My girlfriend owns it, but I drive it a lot. I find the 2017 Forester to be a pretty decent small SUV. I find it comfortable and fairly well-designed. I'm not a huge fan of CVTs but find it has enough pep when I need it. The dash is fairly well-organized and all critical controls are knobs and buttons rather than buried in the touch screen like some cars. A few things could be slightly better organized but these are minor details. The Subaru infotainment system is pretty lacking and the touch screen is buggy sometimes. They're behind the curve on this. But overall it's a decent car even if I'd like it more with a 6 speed manual.

Positive: Very solid 4-wheel drive medium-size SUV. Great interior, wonderful visibility through large windows for safe turning, changing lanes and backing up. Handy rear video backup camera. Good traction for winters, even without snow tires. Eyesight package is a comforting feature, even for short local highway drives, since it helps keep you in pace with traffic without going over your set limit. Heated front seats are sweet. Negative: Rubber pad on back bumper (part of winter package) seems to come unglued (body shops have reattached it twice). Plastic cowls (about 8" long) next to wipers on left and right sides of windshield rattle in the wind. Lacks low-oil indicator on dash display, so only way to know is to manually check oil level.

Feel safe! Had a rollover in a 2012 Forester, the other driver fell sleep. Because I am alive, the insurance adjuster said he has never seen anyone survive such an accident, I bought myself another one, a 2016. The only complaint is the Yokahama Geolander tires. I only have 24,000 miles on them but they are worn. Never seen such a thing. Will be replacing them in a few days before inspection. Other reviews say the same, they are the low quality eventhough they are expensive. In my family we own several Subaru's.

Excellent car for safety and performance. A repeat buyer. Subaru has added latest safety features like Blind Spot Monitor, RAB, Land Departure warning and Excelent Sound System.

No mechanical or electrical problems so far. Fuel economy 22-28 mpg at highway speeds, 300 miles for sure on a tank of gas. Wet road and snow traction is excellent with General Altimax Arctic or Hankook Ipike tires. Switched to Subaru 16? steel wheels, 16x6.5, these are spare tire wheels for year 2012 or older. Good low speed acceleration, acceptable highway passing power. Steering wheel adjusts up/down and in/out which is helpful. Good brakes. Good visibility from inside to outside. Nice heavy duty floor mats, much better than aftermarket. For first 11,000 miles, switched to 5w-30 conventional oil with oil changes every 3k miles. I saved the oil and filter and reinstalled in the car after 11,000 miles. At this point switched back to 0w-20 full synthetic oil. Current oil consumption is less than 1 quart between 6000+ mile oil changes. Fine print in manual said 5w-30 was ok. Interior heater / defroster when below freezing best to let the car warm up for at least 10 minutes so windshield can defrost. Seat covers stain easy, clean-up water stains them too. Delay of vehicle movement shifting from forward to reverse or back, have to plan for this lag time.

This SUV is a great vehicle for the money, and is extremely comfortable on long road trips. It has a smooth ride with ample power for around town use. I would have preferred an analog fuel gauge instead of the digital one.

So far, I am very happy with my Forester. Plenty of power, enough space, fun to drive. It's not the most sportiest looking compact SUV, but still it is very decent looking.

A comfortable ride, an elevated seating position, standard all-wheel drive, and available state-of-the-art safety technology. Excellent fuel economy. Exceptional acceleration thanks to sequential fuel injection. Best AWD system developed so far.

I traded an older Forester for a newer Touring. This was the 3 rd subaru I’ve owned and I will never buy another brand. The quality, safety options, visibility, turning radius far succeeds any other cars I have owned

This car is great for mountain roads and highway driving. Eyesight was a selling point when I purchased and recommend buying Starlink every year. Having that connection when something has happened is worth every cent. What sold me along with Eyesight was the visibility of the Forester and the interior room. I tested a CRV and the Forester and the Sub won hands down.

I used to own a jeep but needed something that would not require constant maintenance. The Subaru Forester was perfect in everyway: reliable, handles well, plenty of passenger leg room, lots of trunk space. Overall great SUV

This car met our family needs. Gas mileage is very good for commuting and very supportive for passenger comfort. Wide doors for easy entry for physically impaired passengers, and loads of leg room. Although better than most, the thickness of the descending support for the right arm rest puts uncomfortable pressure on lateral knee bone. Must adjust seat to partially avoid.

Great SUV for a modest investment! I'm getting an average of 24 mpg and 28 on highway trips. The noise level is low and the comfort is high. I have almost 25000 miles and have not experienced any issues. Buy this car if you want value and reliability!

This car had my must-haves. It was not silver or gray, has a moon roof and a good carfax history. I feel pampered in the leather HEATED seats. I can filly say I have a hot behind!

This car is meeting all of my needs, with only a few minor tweaks needed from initial purchase - and the seller (a dealer) has been fair, friendly, and open to offering good service packages to accompany sale. Glad I found them through Cars.com filtering options.

I kept the car until this year. I put a lot of mileage on it. It was so dependable and reliable. Lots of road trips.

I have a 2015 2.5i base. I fell in love with a Cadillac XT5 at a car show, and test drove one and a Lexus but could not bring myself to give up the Subie. While I would like more power, I like the MPG. Therefore when a more powerful engine is more important I will drive my Taurus SHO and get 20 MPG. I love the visibility in the Forester, one of the prime reasons my next vehicle will be another Forester. I very much like the visibility. For people who complain about the seats, I'm not sure what's wrong; I have a bad back and they're fine. If you test drive one and don't like the seats, don't buy it and then complain. Also for people who complain about the stiff ride, it's an SUV with AWD so not sure what they expect. Buy something with a suspension for a soft ride. I feel like the Forester is very sure footed, I'm comfortable on long trips and very happy with it. Mileage is great for AWD, I've gotten as much as 37MPG (albeit when stuck behind someone going a lot slower than I want). The sound system isn't the best, but it's upgradeable if that's important and you want to pay for it. Cons: uninspired styling (but then again exciting looks don't make it go faster), no guts (but I knew that going in), and underwhelming audio. Pros: good MPG, great safety features and outstanding visibility.

This car has meet all my needs. I feel good driving this car. I feel safe!It has all the great features in it. It is a very comfortable car to drive.

This car meets and exceeds all of my needs. I looked an numerous wagon-like models, because my old car was . VW Passat wagon. I looked at the Outback and the Forester, and immediately chose the Forester because of the feeling of space (more head room, bigger windows, and the moon roof).
