LGT Owners, what car will you drive next?

Exactly this. When I was interested in the Flex EcoBoost, the reliability and the fit & finish scared me off. No like -

Will the TourX have a third row? Rear facing seats maybe??? -
Its all part of Subaru global takeover! Well, maybe just USA That's an unusual sight indeed. I'm always lookin out for Subies down here in Miami. I find a lot of new-riding WRX bros have no clue or just don't care what an LGT wagon is...

Rubbing front and/or rear? rear But keep in mind: 225/40/18 are an easy if the wheels are the right offset and width. The combination of those two numbers being the key to easy peasy. at this point of my life / budget / busy I want it all: easier, great look, and sporty DD. Easiest option -

not trolling and I hear your internet-will-answer-your-questions perspective, but I don't necessarily have eighteen f***** hours to find the needle in the haystack. diagnose my own stupid problem, find the possible answers, parse through everything, and decide on my own what I happen to think is the * right * answer. and then make some more simple mistakes. "here noob, see this link" is that so flipping hard. nothing makes me want to go lease a beigemobile and forget this modding more than people who relate to this as another cool-kids clique have a great evening. -

The issues with the V are - > avg 9mpg. Occassionally 10. T - E - N. (granted in my LGT I avg only 13 > monthly payment is a lot vs Subie is PAID OFF. Z - E - R - O. > insurance is $2K / yr vs Subie, reasonable > goes through rear tires like kleenex vs Subie, reasonable wear life depending how you drive > WAY more power than can possibly use near where I live, whereas the Subie can use 8/10 or 9/10 of its ability much more of the time. way more accessible > the V's rear visibility and high door sills make seeing out of it a pain in the ass. Subie has miles of glass all around and lower door sills, easy, don't need a camera > payment gas insurance = $$$$$$$ I could start listing other things about the LGT I love more than the V, but question was about the drawbacks of the V... btw I think 'suicide' is pushing it a bit far, but yes you are courting danger way more quickly in a huge power, RWD car than a lighter weight AWD car -

But I NEED to feel I'm giving my car a workout, constantly! This is one of the reasons I'm regretting the V wagon purchase. -

Indeed, but as a LGT wagon diehard, tell me you wouldn't get into Levorg anyway? Esp with 300hp and a 6sp? even if it's on the smaller side?? Hmmm outback XT. I'm thinking about that. But all I keep picturing is a cow on rollerblades -

I bought a CTS V wagon to replace my beloved LGT wagon. However. Besides that the V is soooo damn expensive to have around and the Subie is paid off, the Subie is also just more fun. Yes in a straight line, on big roads with lots of room etc etc the V is way more "car." nicer quieter cabin leather luxury etc etc But for the kind of fling it around driving I do, on small local roads, I actually prefer the Subie in so many ways. The V is a fire breathing dragon I rarely can use its power. Now I'm selling the V. Crazy / stupid I know. Anyone else had a similar experience and just .. came home to mama (Subaru)? -

Damn the level of knowledge is freakin impressive. I'm not looking to go lower. Don't want stiff springs unless I'm really tracking the car which I ain't. Unless you count driving like an idiot most of the time. Just want the biggest widest wheels I can get with the least amount of work and cost. Lazy, I know. 18x8s ? -
