Today
I tested more cars offered by Subaru. I went back to Hodges Subaru in Ferndale,
MI and was dealing with Danielle again (if you’re looking to buy a Subaru and
live in the Detroit area, deal with her, she’s wonderful!). Today I was testing
and measuring cars for my parents who are finally looking to replace Harmony
(2000 Subaru Outback) or Cloud (1999 Subaru Forester).
A
few notes on the Subaru product line before I review the cars. Subaru needs to
offer a wagon version of the Legacy that is less bulky looking than the new
Outback’s (this is available in Japan and should be here too). Subaru manual
transmission vehicles still suffer from very soft clutch pedals, a bit more
resistant would just let you know you’re pressing it better. Also, Subaru offers
a lot of great diesel versions of their vehicles in other countries that are
quite fuel efficient, these should be offered to the USA as well.
