Along with his doppelgänger
Sorry about you being at the Hospital...but what does have to do with keeping this thread - NOT your thread - useless for so long.
Hope you get well soon.
Thanks OK!
He's a master of lengthy threads that go nowhere fast, mainly just for self serving attention grab, asking for advice but not actually interested in following any of it...

Reminded me of OP a little because he is all over the board, and the field keeps widening instead of narrowing with no end in sight. It has its entertainment value, I suppose. Certainly not against forum rules.

Well im none of those people and you know me well from responding and commenting on your posts.
You really owe me an apology Mr
Q.
I did not say you were him. Please go back and re-read my earlier post.
All I said was this thread reminded me of him. I have nothing to apologize for.

Gentlemen, let’s stop the personal direction this thread has taken.
If you don’t like the idea of somebody publicly wondering about what car to buy, a legitimate topic on a car related site, then please just don’t comment. Don’t read the thread.
Please stop the personal comments, name calling, accusation, comparison to trolls, whatever.
Thanks.

You came in with the others with negativity where it wasn't warranted. You know it but that is ok. I find it funny we can talk about oil endlessly here but this honest thread bothers a few of you. Why? No idea but it is what it is.
No hard feelings....edit
Apologies for the negativity. I hope you do find what you're looking for.
Apologies for the roughness. Peace pipe

And great mpg..Somebody mention a compact with power and good mpg? Here you go at 28 mpg overall, a blast to drive and VW's excellent seats.
Sadly an internet search. In all honesty I have not ever driven a CVT other than my KFX 700 quad. My understanding is the Subaru's have the most reliable ones. I personally would not have a problem owning one if test drove it and was impressed.

I have owned many and prefer them.
Same with auto stop because of the various hybrids I have owned.
Even the old Honda Element transmission reminded me of a cvt but wasn't had what I remember as grade logic. With a cvt you dont fight the hills and down shift. I am very used to them.
The Subaru bothers me from a reliability standpoint. Hard to figure out what problem areas were resolved in the latest offerings. But that oil filter mounting is tempting...
I got a ride back from the mechanics in a forester and was impressed with the seamless gearing. Pretty darn smooth. It is really hard to argue the reliability of Honda and Toyota's. Heck my wife's 21 year old Lexus ES300 still runs like a top with no major issues.
I would like to see some long term ownership reviews on the Subarus. I used to have a Subaru Brat and it served me well until I broke a front shaft. My fault though for running it with torn boots and clunks until it broke.

I don’t even torque mine down, I just go till the filter cap bottoms out. Easiest oil changes ever!
