More care musing and thinking about what I might get but probably not until spring.

Both are smaller cars. Wagons with fold down seats (I will use it a lot for our inn and shopping for banquets etc. so having space to put in a cooler etc is nice) both All Wheel Drive. But reading reviews everything points that the Crosstrek is very underpowered. People mock VW for being turds, but I loved my jetta until I turned it in over the cheating scandal with the TDI.

Anyone have or driven either of these cars? what are your thoughts.
