We just traded our Buick Enclave for a Outback Touring. Wife wanted a little smaller car. First benefit, we had just renewed out car insurance for out Buick and when I called to get insurance on new car I asked how much more we would need to pay and was told I would be getting $143 back due to the safety rating of a Subaru. How nice.

We have been driving it for about 3 weeks now and have nothing but good things to say about handling and performance. Thought going from 6 to 4 cylinders might be noticeable, but overall I don't miss those extra cylinders. Plenty of get up and go.

Also like the fact you get a full size spare tire. The Buick had one of those little spares and we were on a long trip and had a flat tire on a Saturday. Had a heck of a time finding a replacement so we could continue on our trip that day.

Highly recommend Subaru.
