Any of my fellow Huntwa folks drinking these, and what’s your thoughts on them now?

We are close to getting an Ascent.  We’ve had Subaru cars since 2002.  I know a lot of people who drive them. Wife wants the Ascent, which means youngest gets the latest Outback.  Money is the only barrier right now.  My sister called yesterday to offer her 2010 4Runner to me.  I might have to do that.

One tipping point is safety features, Ascent is loaded with them.

If the Atlas has the offload features that the Taureg used to have, that would be a pretty cool rig.

The Atlas is lacking in cup holders, USB ports, simple stuff but needed handy options.😉

Plus the Ascent gets better mileage, and already has roof racks, and cross racks.👍

We just ordered an Ascent last week.  Didn't look at the Atlas as the wife had tunnel vision on the Subaru.  Our Forester has been great to use for 9 years now so we decided to stick with them.

Not sure if you are a costco member, but we got the dealer to match the Costco discount and got it down to 36.4k with the options that we want.  It won't be here until next month but during the test drive and such it was a winner.  Plenty of power, can tow my boat and enough room for our 3 kids and dog.

How do the CVTs hold up now?
