There's a few issues with Subaru at this point...
1. Price - The higher priced Outback is out of many people's range and the Crosstreck is more enticing for price after inflation has had its way and the dealers stack on silly markup.
2. Availability - Our local Subaru Colorado dealers had absolutely zero stock when my daughters car was totaled and we needed to replace it. Their answer was to have us place an order that would take 4 months. Well the car is totaled and waiting on an order isn't an option. We went to Mazda who tracked us down a suitable replacement within a week.
3. Other Options - Other makers, i.e., Mazda is making all wheel drive and doing so for less money than Subaru for like models.
I dig Subaru but they come at a price in Colorado and when its easier to get another makers cars for less people go looking elsewhere.
