Escapeism Report post Posted October 4, 2012 2001 Toyota Rav4 5-speed manual. Still have it @ 205,000 miles on it, All original including the clutch. Would have bought another manual but the CX-5 and VW don't come with any option packages. Subaru manuals actually come pretty loaded. But my wife said "you don't look like a Subaru person" whatever that means. Of course foreign markets can get manuals, first time in my life I have driven a non-manual. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mval Report post Posted November 1, 2013 Had been a MOpar fan forever, since my dad was a Mopar mechanic, but when they took the bailout money & then closed our plant in STL & spent the money in Mexico I went to Ford. First with my SHO now the Escape. My wife had a Dodge Minivan, me a Dodge Stratus R/T, which really was a Mitsubitsi 3000 underneath. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimRG Report post Posted September 9, 2015 We had a 2007 Subaru Impreza, the wagon version. A great car with a great awd system. Agter 2 weeks I love my 2014 Escape 1.6 Ecotech. Made the change because I just did not want to drive a Subie for another 8 - 10 years. Nothing at all against Subaru, I've never buy the same brand twice in a row. Too many nice cars out there. 2nd car is a 1990 Mazda MX5. Great, fun car, but not much use in the snow, IMHO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
