🔴6 Reasons Why You SHOULD NOT Buy Toyota RAV4 WATCH HERE 👉th-cam.com/video/GpBBLlqTqxA/w-d-xo.html
What is "better"... either way, I'd struggle to name one...
My Outback XT goes 0-60 in 6 seconds. It’s fun to drive, and it goes anywhere❤
Ok, if you're going to complain about the Forrester's fuel economy, at least compare apples to apples. To put the Forrester up against it's hybrid competition isn't close to fair. How does the Forrester compare to the non hybrid CR-V and Rav4? I've got a 2022 Outback that I traded a 2013 Rav4 for. The Rav4 rarely approached it's EPA estimated fuel economy ratings, something that always disappointed me. My Outback has easily matched it's EPA estimates which means it has routinely returned 2.5 to 3 mpg better, across the board, than my Rav4 and that's with the Outback's AWD besting the Rav4's 2-wheel drive.
Scotty Kilmer did a review of somebody Subaru Forester wilderness and because the owner had a bigger build the RAV4 was a bit small for him so we went with the Forester.
@@robertknight4672 - My Rav4 was ok, comfort wise, but I think the Subaru is better. Obviously, I'm more satisfied with the Subaru's fuel economy than I was with the Toyota's. The best thing I can say for the Rav4 is I traded it in with 135k miles on it and in that distance, I never spent one dollar on the car for repairs. Nothing ever failed. All the money I spent on the car was simply maintenance related. So far, my Outback, approaching 50k miles, is in the same boat. Time will tell how well it stacks up against the Toyota on that statistic.
The non hybrid RAV4 motor also sounds like a piece of old farm equipment. I worked at a Toyota dealership when the current Rav model came out with that motor. As each sales guy drove the car the comments were “oh boy that’s not good” Hybrid model camouflages that a good bit and is definitely a better choice IMO…..but not apples to apples with the Forester.
I would personally love the boxyness of the Forester in the Outback’s length….with an H6 😆
I can dream.
A turbo? It,s 40 cents more per gallon to fill the tank, and the milage is no better... if you are buying an awd, get your foot off the pedal and enjoy the scenery.
Why should I drive an engine burning turbo? I am on my 4th Forester and have NEVER had a problem with any part of the Forester. I have no problem at the Montana 80mph or in town in heavy traffic. Maybe you should spend some real time in a very good and reliable car .... Non-Turbo Forester !!!!!
Those without the turbos are just sore LOSSERS.
@@user-ue2rw5yy9d not everyone wants a turbo toy than will die quicker means a DISCARTABLE VEHICLE in short period. turbo put more effort to the engine . means less live time motor engine. NOT everyone wants to RACE YOU on the street. and you shouldnt really try that without the police noticing you , it seems you are pretty young to NOT understand subaru forester is a safe, reliable car, than wont let you down . ITS NOT a racing car. its designed for confort and safety. NOT TO CRASH by being a fool kid trying to ride it like a fast and furious movie.
Moral of this sad comparison…buy a forester or an outback…nuff said
I bought a Forester, I love it. I heard all about the acceleration being on the slow side. I dunno if they were all trying to race the Forester or what, but it has plenty of acceleration for me & I have a heavy foot on the pedal.
@@dragracingwithmary3051 seemed good enough…hoping it’ll be the next car in our household
#7 the tail lights are not bright enough.
#8 the colors are not pretty enough.
#9 becouse I don't use AWD.
#10 BECOUSE THIS VIDEO IS WORTHLESS
The two things I can’t stand are what this video praises. Turbo charged engines, and the annoying huge infotainment screen that Forester luckily doesn’t have. The Wilderness cladding looks cheesy?? Insane. That’s my favorite part.
I like my 2023 base Forester mostly because of its taller height than the outback which gives you a little more Headroom. And I like the large Windows too. My previous car was a Honda Element. I think the Next Generation Forester will end up with that large screen I think the Crosstrek already has it.
@@robertknight4672I went from an Element to a Forester too! Forester was the only one that felt comparable to the Element’s roomy cabin.
Amen! I bought the 2023 Forester because it did NOT have that bid old infotainment screen!
I agree I also hate turbo charged engines and prefer the smaller infotainment screen
No turbo is a positive, looks are an opinion. Those unintuitive flats screens are cumbersome. Size and functionality are key.
Those 6 reasons won't affect me from buying the Subaru Forester. I just bought a used 2020 Forester Touring with 50Kmi. last week, in white with brown leather interior. I'm driving Honda Odyssey and my wife is driving Toyota Highlander. This car will be for my 18yrs old son so he can drive to UofH soon. This will be the first Subaru for me, for my family. After doing a lot of research, I decided to buy a Forester for my son. The main reason is safety and insurance cost. We only have this car for a week and so far, to be honest, I like it very much. MPG is around 29.5 for mix city/hwy driving. It has a lot of custom settings which I like. It has even more bells and whistles than my wife 2017 Highlander Platinum (except for 3D bird eyes view). This car is Made in Japan which I just found out later on. All in all, me my wife and my son like it so far.
I’ve had mine for 3 years. Still love it. Never had any issues and I’m keeping it for a lifetime
Comparing any faux jeep or junky escape to a Subaru tells me all i need to know…loon review
They're showing you a 2025 Forester - not the 2024.
I've been all over this segment (compact SUV) as I search for the replacement for my Forester XT. The bottom line seems to be that it is difficult to get everything in one place. Towing for example. The CRV Hybrid actually loses 500 lbs to the 1.5L turbo CRV, and is only rated for 1,000 lbs. If you opt for the Wilderness edition of the Forester, you can tow up to 3500 lbs. The stock RAV4 hybrid tows 1750 lbs. Maybe the Woodland is higher, but you do lose some mpg (ditto the Wilderness, as it's shorter gearing kills highway mpg). If you like some of the all-weather aids, you can't get fog lights (factory/dealer) on a CRV or CX-5/50. Honda even teases you with little chrome accents on the lower grill. And btw, the "go anywhere" CRV Hybrid does NOT have a spare tire, but instead a tire repair kit. Useless if you gash a sidewall or have anything bigger than a nail/screw sized leak. Not confidence inspiring if you use your vehicle for light off-roading. In this price range, most everything is somewhat of a compromise between price, reliability ratings, mpg, acceleration, useable cargo area, back seat room, etc. Apparently the electronic only AWD works fine in the RAV4 (rear wheels only driven by electric motor. A clever idea to eliminate the drivetrain, but when the roads get really slick or mud/snow gets deep, is it as good? Haven't seen anyone really address this.) Right now, the '24 Foresters are discounted (at least in my region) as the '25's are about to arrive. For a similarly equipped RAV 4 hybrid, it is several thousand more. (Comparing the Limited with 032 package) and the payback on gas savings is on the order of 10 years out if you drive 12K per year and use gas at $ 4.50 (regular in my region now). The CX-5/50 are just as sluggish as the Forster, unless you opt for the turbo versions, then expect combined 25 mpg. And cargo space, rear seat space are compromised. So, choose your compromise.
You're talking about the 2025 Forester that's not even out yet! I just traded in my 2021 Forester Sport for the 2024 Forester Sport. Believe it or not, the 2024 Forester's engine actually work fine and is quick if you know how to drive! They have a sports mode that gives you the power you need!
Shopping for any car is an exercise in compromises. You can't get a car with every advantage. Subarus perform quite well, however, you'll need to adjust to a few of the things mentioned in this video. Personally, I don't flash and flare. My '14 Forester and '16 Legacy are more than competent vehicles. I even enjoy changing my own motor oil as the filter is on top of the engine.
I guess getting 34 hwy mpg's in my 2023 isn't enough.
Idk about you but every subaru i have owned does horrible in city mileage. My 2011 legacy 3.6 only gets 16-18. My outback 2.5i 2017 only gets like 18 at best in the city and my crosstrek gets about 21
@Hallowsaw yeah I get about 21-24 depending on where I am. I get the highway numbers from the 6 hour trips I go on regularly.
@@Hallowsaw bad oil inside the engine. even if its 0w20. its making a difference from one brand to another.
Just traded in a 2002 Forester with OVER 400,000 KLM's on it, Done well for the Wife for over 18 years without any issues and now with no more Footy training & Game Days, Dance lessons & Dance Comps believe the BRAND NEW FORESTER should see us into Our 80's😊
The new ones are not near as good as your 2002 but good luck.
And here we were complaining about how the CVT drones on and on...
😂😂😅
Love my forester wilderness!!
I’ll take spartan cabins as long as the view lines remain. These cabins provide unrivaled views.
If you have already decided you don't like something, it is easy to find a way to justify it. I agree that the Forester is under-powered. But the rest of your complaints are purely personal preferences. Is Mazda better? Try using the rotary knob control while driving. And its better looks? That beautiful candy apple red paint that is usually shown costs hundreds of dollars extra.
We just did an 8000 mile trip in our 2020 forester sport. It did fantastic. So I don’t agree with anything you have posted.
❤FORESTER TOURING 2023 !!! #1 SAFETY AND ELEGANT SUV ONE OF THE BEST 🎉
Anyone who compares a petrol car's fuel consumption to the hybrid version of their competitors is just making content, not giving any serious analysis.
As family with 4 Subaru Foresters I disagree with most of your bs.
Try saying something simple like "there's no spare tyre so if you get a flat tyre, you're fucked". A repair kit won't help you if you tear the side out of your tyre and you don't have coverage to call someone for help.
In almost 30yrs of driving cars, i luckily never needed a spare tyre. But in the last 4 yrs i needed the compressor from the repair kit 2 times because of screws in the tyre… so i could fill up the tyre just with air and could drive to a garage to repair the tyre.
I don't know about the 2024 model year but with 2023 and earlier all Forester trims came with a spare tire. Full size spare tire for the Wilderness trim compact spares for everything else.
@@robertknight4672 here in germany is just a 2litre hybrid version of the forester available…the place for the spare tyre is blocked with a high voltage battery.
Agree Outback may be a better option for some Subaru buyers.
Also, be aware - AWD drives require perfectly matched tires. If you have a flat or puncture 5 or 8000 miles, the tread and weight of 3 tires are mismatched to a single new tire. This isn't always the case, but be away - some drivers have bought 4 new tires because of one nail in one tire. sigh
Most quality tire retailers (Tire Rack for one) can shave the new tire down to the tread level of the remaining tires, which can save you quite a bit of money. However, that only makes sense if your tires are relatively low milage with lots of life left.
Totally disagree
Oh and turbo charging a small engine sounds great but turbos are another major thing to go wrong and strand you. Turbos make the car less reliable, another thing to go wrong. I’ve seen way too many Subarus needing major repairs way way too soon.
You want fast Subaru buy wax
Are you nuts
This video seems to have absolutely no idea what people want. Other than a larger engine, nothing else mentioned in here is anything I would want. I prefer the switches, knobs and buttons over a touch screen any day. I just bought the 2024 Outback Wilderness, but I like a more traditional layout in the inside of a vehicle.
I’ve own two Super boo boo’s. Junk engine design that hasn’t changed much over the decades. When the engine starts to leak oil which is common for these, it drips right onto the exhaust manifold smoking you out in the cabin. My mom has a new one and at 22k miles the engine was totally rebuilt and she did maintenance perfect. I have many friends who own them. Head gasket leaks, burning oil way to soon and rebuilds for them too. While these drive nice and yes the Outback is better, same engine, I will never own another one.
Older models?
Who wrote this crap? Such drivel. 😂😅
poor text
poor English
I wouldn't buy outback. Subarus are garbage
too general. maybe you need to reconsider
Enjoy your Nissan Altima.
@@gergnotsloh😂 exactly!
