Little Toyota Rav4 or I hate to say it but a Subaru?
Never thought we'd own a Subaru.My wife got one 2 years ago.We love it.I love AWD.
Subaru Forester. We bought ours new in 2011. 107k miles and zero problems. I take it hunting and fishing all the time.
It can be, which is why it is good to see that head gaskets have been addressed in a used Subaru.

Glad yours is working out so farSupposedly Subaru fixed that in 2010 but if I have to pay $1500 dollars for a headgasket job, so be it. The thing has been problem free for over 100k
Thanks guys! Commute is about 20 or so miles each way. I have only had one day I could not get home in that accord and it was the rain and flash freeze day we had 10 years ago or so I say I could have but did not try the last three hills. AWD would be a big perk but not a requirement, would allow me to take it to the place on the east side. I park in a lot with a bunch of careless door bashing people so I do not need the nicest looking thing. Dependability is probably #1, gas mileage #2 as even with my truck I seem to put about 15-17K a year on my driver. Kids are grown so do not care about them, lol. Dogs may become kids so SUV would be cool but not a requirement. Over the years I have warmed up a bit to the Subaru but not there just yet, lol. Budget could upwards of $15K but of course less is preferred, this will be what I drive until I retire and move to the country!Thanks again for the help. We have owned a few Toyotas (2 4 runners, and a 4x4 pickup) s-10, 1500 and 3500 chevys, 3 Accords. They have all been great cars. I am just thinking it would be nice to not get in and out off the ground every time I get in and out of the car. Getting older and fatter is not helping but that is another issue .
