The "Hirohito's Revenge" cars made by Fuji Heavy Industries were pretty neat in the 70s to early 90s(Subaru). Nobody else sold a car in the USA with four wheel drive, 30 MPG highway mileage, and a high-low transfercase, and air-suspension to get extra ground-clearance when needed.
Now? Every time I see one of those "Subaru Love" commercials, I want to puke. Nothing special or unique or utilitarian anymore about Subarus. In fact, my wife's parents have a Ford Escape AWD that gets 30 MPG highway and is much more vehicle then newer Subarus the same size. I'm just too cheap to buy one.
The main reason why we've stuck with Subarus thus far for winter-only vehicles is because of their stopping traction. When our steep road is ice and snow bound, I've yet to drive any other vehicle that can hold the road going down the hill like a Subaru. Except maybe my Chevy plow truck when it has chains on all four wheels. Subarus seem to have an unusual weight distribution with that weird Boxer engine so far ahead of the front axle centerline.
