I’ve had an ‘04 OBW since new. Still ran great, but wouldn’t pass PA inspection because of structural rust. We also have a ‘16 Leggy, with 85k miles. Runs great, been good to us. The Impreza / Crosstrek is bigger inside than than the G 1-3 Outbacks, even has a longer wheelbase. I’m considering a Crosstrek to replace the Outback, as I’d like to have a nimble small wagon. We have a truck, so I’m not too worried about carrying stuff.
Yeah, we’re spoiled with the Leggy. Roomy, comfortable, excellent MPGs. But, will a Crosstrek be a penalty box?
Thanks in advance!
 
Bought my 2024 Crosstrek 17 months ago. First time Subie owner, have always had Hondas, (wife has a 2019 Hr-V). Very happy with the car and rides significantly better than the Honda. Appreciate the safety features, as I got the Premium with the sunroof, blind spot detection and the rear detection. Have done some road trips in moutainous areas and have found no problems with the 2.0 engine. Get about 34 mpg on the highway and 26-29 in the city. The car is actually a little bit narrower than the 2016 Honda Civic coupe I traded in. Fit and finish is first rate, only been to the dealership for 6 month comp. service.
