Overall, I am very impressed with the Subaru XV Crosstrek. The pearl blue color looks sleek, even when dirty. The all weather package and leather interior upgrades have helped make maintenance and cleanup of the interior very easy, even with two large dogs riding regularly in the rear quarters. Seats fold down to make plenty of space in the back of the vehicle. The Crosstrek has enough ground clearance to be used off road, and the fuel economy is great for a crossover model which makes freeway and city driving easy on the wallet. I have used this vehicle for two long road trips and the vehicle made the trip very enjoyable. One other great feature of the car is the potency of the air conditioning. Many people who ride in the car comment on how cold the A/C is. I have had the car for three years, have had no major repairs, and have only just replaced the tires for the first time. The cars are built to last and are industry leaders in safety. I use this car to commute to work daily, transporting heavy items, to go camping, and on family road trips.
