Crapola - I have something in common with them! Yikes.
I personally don't care what other people buy and drive, I choose what I buy and drive for my own reasons.
Good answer! ;) Same here. I didn't know there were certain types drawn to certain cars/makes, though. I hadn't thought much about that but thinking now about some choices of certain people, it's true.
Yes, I checked out the ratings of Subaru and, also, stop people and ask them how they like their Forester. All positive and, usually, it's their second one.
So now I'm more comfortable w/my choice but now it's - should I do it now or wait. I like the 7K part!
The $7k is for the last of the breed, the very late model years before the classic Cherokee was killed off, stupidly imho. I do know that 125k miles is regarded as pretty low, even for a 2000 model, so you’ve got that going for you. Any rust? It’s 4WD right?
How right you are - I would never think to search out what Subaru means or what their symbol means. Gas mileage, Point A to point B safely and price is what I care about.
Oh, cool - a freeper. I knew I’d be in touch w/you, again. If I do decide to sell you will be the first to know. Got to get myself to a dealership first and test drive. I did test drive a Forester back in ‘99 and thought it was fun to drive - not sure if that changed.
Since this Jeep has never gone off the road or on a beach - I think it would enjoy retiring to the beach and be used for an aspect it was designed for. Highway and mostly city driving - all work and no play.
I’ll have the mechanic check to see if there is any rust underneath. I’ll be in touch.
I keep hearing 125,000 is considered low but I think 17 years and.... Yes 4WD. No rust.
