I have an Outback right now that’s been a great car . My wife loves it . Barring anything catastrophic happening I can see her wanting to replace it with another. I have a Ram truck “ it’s the first time I’ve ever owned a truck that wasn't a Chevy” and it has me thinking I should have switched years ago.

Marshal Dan Troop 70448 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 One thing I noticed on new pickup trucks over last couple years and this year. Seems I see more and more parked in driveways and on streets. Very few fit in garages anymore. Neighbor down the road tried to get his slightly used Toyota into his garage he had just bought, put a nice dent into his roof of the Toyota.. My wife's niece traded her 2018 Jeep Wrangler in for a new Cadillac, they gave her 42,000.00 in trade in. Checking the dealer she traded with, I see they have her Jeep listed at 49,000.00.

Rye Miles #13621 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 My last 3 cars were Buicks, a Verano and this is my second Encore. Great cars no problems. I've always had good luck with GM. Fords not so much. I've had two Dodge Caravans that were also good vehicles no complaints. I had a Subaru a Legacy Wagon that I bought used. I had it for about a year but it was so low to the ground I got tired of crawling in and out of it. It was NOT the Outback or Forester it was the car version only a station wagon. It was a good car but I traded it in on a brand new 1998 Dodge Caravan. The salesman said "No one trades in their Subaru with this low mileage, 70K!!! Well....I did!

Look at the size of an 80s pickup compared to new F150. But garages are the same size they’ve always been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
