Outback. It just is a bit taller. It is built on the Prieza
chassis. The Outback is not really built on a truck chassis. It is
just a lot beefier than the Forester. I originally had considered buying
a Forester because I had grown out of my Saturn. After investigating, I
learned that the Forester had almost the same cubic space inside as the Saturn
wagon. The Outback is much larger. Both great cars,
though.</SPAN></FONT></P>

fold-down rear seat is perfect for sliding in an action, and the all-wheel
drive will get you anywhere. Handles great; it's kind of an oversized
Subaru Outback, built on a car frame rather than a truck frame. (The
reviews say "On the road, it handles like a car; off-road, it handles like a
car...). Mileage is about 24mpg highway.</SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

fixed after the near-head-on incident, a friend loaned me her Subaru
Forester. I loved driving it (she was ready to sell it to me, then
changed her mind). It has a cover for the storage section and places
on the inside to attach bungee cords to hold things in place--thread the
cord through tool box handles and attach to the car, or use a net type
holder. I learned this from a friend who learned the hard way that the
stuff we haul goes flying in an accident. The only problem is the
Forester had less room and I REALLY had to plan and pack carefully for
service calls. It sure would have been nice for hauling this D action
around, though. I'm trying to find that "perfect" vehicle for
work and family (that I can afford--ha!). Perhaps a Camry station
wagon. Who knows.</SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>
