The '21 Outback had 140K miles on it.
I recommended wife look at Honda or Toyota. Dealer stocks of small SUVs are really low!
Honda dealer had a CRV that had been customer ordered but no down payment and the customer hadn't returned calls so it was put into inventory.
I didn't want a hybrid. Dealer had lots of those. Dealer didn't want the Outback.
Wife went for a CR-V gasoline powered one. Strange, they only offer them with a 1.5 liter turbocharged engine. I'd rather not have the turbo.
The Honda has a roomier interior, better seating, and a major improvement over the Outback - the radio & heating-AC controls are knobs, not touch screen. The Honda is much quieter and rides better. Gave the Outback to daughter who's Prius had failed due to (very expensive) electrical problems.
