I have decided I need a new winter vehicle. One that can carry a lot of crap and take door dings without me losing it.
As such I have narrowed my choices down to a Rav 4 and a Forrester. I have owned 3 subbies and never once have I been done wrong by them, the wifey has owned 2 toyotas and she's in the same boat. Im looking at the SUV to pull duty as my winter vehicle and my 2-3 times a week daily driver when weather is shitty, maybe a few camping trips as well.
The prices are near identical as is the options im really stuck between the two as 3 test drives and reading reviews still leave me where i started which was undecided between the two.
I was hoping some owners on the board can give me their insight on their vehicles (pet peeves etc) so I can make a decision.
Im looking for the opinions of actually owners as I have read through more then enough reviews but they never seem to mention the small irritants about vehicles. (ex: Subaru and their paint that chips just by staring at it or Honda's need to make their dashes creak constantly)
Thanks
