    Who on earth would want to drive such an ugly unrepairable uncomfatable thing.......They are all right offs once the warranties have passed.....so many are so uncomfortable to drive as well....

  • Isn't it called a crossover because it's a hybrid of a van and a sedan?  The auto manufacturers were trying to appeal to both audiences.

    Subaru is a cool name. It's the Japanese word for what we call the Pleiades. One of my grand daughters is named Maia.

    OK.   That's cool.  Most of them are just made-up gibberish.  I would give you Asker's pick but it isn't offered on here right now for some glitch reason.
