What do you drive and why?

Just got a 2019 Subaru Forester. Had a 2012 till someone decided to T-bone me on the drivers side. The car held up very well to the impact. Walked away even though the damage was such insurance called it a total loss. Safety was a main consideration in getting the new one, plus the AWD system, improved mileage and reliability of the brand. Had an older Honda CRV (2006) and almost bought another, great small SUV.
So what do you drive and why?

2004 Jaguar XJ8... bought used 4 years ago with 26k miles. I paid 10k for it and I love the styling. 1st year for the all-aluminum body, so the big girl is quick on her feet and handles very well.

.....For me, the best car stereo has been Meridian in Jaguar XJ. Burmester in S-class coupe comes second (which was a surprise to me)......


I cant agree more. My next car is going to be an XJR, and of course it will have the  Meridian sound. My wife is getting a 2019 Subaru Outback limited this summer. Having built these cars on the assembly line in Lafayette, I can say they never leave the line with an assembly defect. If there is a recal or failure, it comes from parts vendors, but never from the guys on the line. I wish I could say t(e same form my Dodge Demon I waited an entire year for, only to find out the manufacturer crashed the car before they even shipped it to the dealer, but that would be another long discussion.
