I recently sold my winter car, a 2002 Subaru Outback. It had 150K miles of hard winter driving, but was getting "shaggy" for hauling customers. Very reliable all-wheel-drive car. Not much spunk, and gas mileage was OK from 20 - 24 mpg. All in all, a good Northern Wisconsin vehicle. I … (1 comments)
