Replying to: weaselinsuit (Apr 27, 2009 9:21 am) The Forester seems to have a better back seat spacing with foot room, is easier to park and has slightly better visibility. From riding as a passenger it seems roomier than my Outback wagon....and it also has a higher load height capability that would have held my new snow blower right side up instead of on its side.   However if pricing by you is like Chicago, left-over Outbacks might be $2000 less than the Forester.

I appreciate the feedback. As I say, I suspect we'll end up with the Forester, which with two small kids still in booster seats may not be a bad thing, the added height makes a surprising difference when buckling them in.

Hi all. I am about to drive to the dealer to get new 2009 Legacy 2.5i. I test drove many different brands, opted out of Nissan CVT (2010 Subaru CVT as well), and decided on proven 4speed automatic. I am coming out of Olds Intrigue - good car if it wasn't for famous intake gasket, but it gave me many years of relatively trouble free driving. I did a lot of reading, Legacy looked like a good buy with latest incentives. I like the looks and 4 wheel drive - important here in Toronto area. Are there any particular areas to keep an eye on during first days/weeks of driving? Do you change oil after first 1k or keep driving to 6k (km) as schedule says? Cheers. jhd Replies to this message: ateixeira (Jul 29, 2009 8:19 am)

Replying to: jhd (Jul 04, 2009 11:06 am) During your test drive do a figure-8 in an empty parking lot to make sure all the diffs and bearings are operating smoothly (I'd do that in *any* car). Test drive with the windows open and the radio off to listen for any odd noises.   Also, buy it in the sunlight, so any paint or body flaws are visible.   Best of luck!
