I actually have a model that's not listed, it is a Subaru DL. You can drive Subaru's until they die and this one hasn't died yet. It is old, and I have put 375,000 miles on the same engine. I replaced its transmission with a rebuilt one, and it still drives as well as ever. It has always had great fuel economy, listed as being 26 mpg, but I used to get 32 mpg. Now I get around 28 mpg & I do mostly highway driving. It is not air-conditioned, so I have made numerous modifications to it, as in a window swamp cooler, solar powered window fans, and tinted windows, because I drive it in the desert. It is easy to work on so I could do most tune-ups for less cost myself. It is old so it is not extremely quiet, but it runs well. It still handles quite well, but not as well as some newer cars.

My 2011 Subaru Outback is one of the best cars I've owned. It handles well in wet and snowy conditions just as well as on drive pavement. The ride is smooth. Seats are comfortable for me as a 5'3" driver and my spouse who is over 6'. The rear seat has plenty of room for two adults to sit comfortably or three smaller adults (or middle school girls). I can easily fit all the groceries from my weekly trip in the back or load up the camping gear for a Girl Scout overnight. While this car is used most often for short daily commutes, it has also been used for longer vacation trips and it well suited for both. When I use this vehicle for driving with Uber I am often complimented by the riders for the fit, comfort, and smooth ride of the car as well as how nice it looks. A feature I wasn't aware the vehicle even had is a heated windshield. I had to have it replaced to due a crack from being hit with by a rock and learned from the glass company that I had a heated windshield. The vehicle has required regular maintenance and repairs - like oil changes, new tires, and brakes but otherwise has not required any expensive repairs.
