2007 Subaru Forester Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment

2007 Subaru Forester Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 173-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD		 Fuel economy not as good as the CR-V, though the more powerful engine was the reason. see full Subaru Forester review
2006 4dr SUV turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD		 Some people look at the XT's ratings and think 19-24 is horrible AND you have to buy premium gas! Not me. Don't mind it one bit. Do the math: $3 extra over regular unleaded at the pump every fill-up, 4 times a month (although I fill up less), that's $12/month. Multiply by 12 months and you're looking at $144/year! That's nothing to pay for the fun added to your driving experience! Some people pay more than that for one nice dinner out! see full Subaru Forester review
