I've always wondered about those...our new car is a BIT more UGLY. We recently bought a Nissan CUBE!
Hmmm, my BEST vehicle in snow, NOT that I have to worry about that much anymore, was my International Scout Traveler. Talk about SICK!
NOTHING stopped that monster.....except possibly RUST. I miss that beast.
The cube is soooo cool!

FYI: "Sick" is a highly complimentary adjective these days.

Best car for driving in the snow? No question-the Lincoln Town Car I rented from Budget when they had 'em for $19.95 a day. I got the comprehensive insurance (run over a bunch of nuns on a bus bench-no problem-you're covered!). Next best thing to being invulnerable!
I'd take it to Mammoth and go through snowbanks, creek beds, ski runs-you name it. Spin out and crunch someone elses car-it's insured! Ah, the good old days.
PS-Worked equally well in the desert on sand!

Ditto on that CONGRATS MITCH! , I've got a Forester with 130K on it....but this THING
is more fun to drive!!

We've a 2005 Forester XT that has given us zero problems even with 130K miles on it. Great car and loves the highway - once caught myself doing 105 MPH on a parkway just after we'd bought it and had no clue I was going that fast! My only complaint is the excessive road noise with our car but I understand that they've taken care of this issue. You're gonna love your Subaru, Mitch!
