Hmm.... I've only purchased one so far, but of the 350 + cars my best friend has owned, about 100 were purchased since retiring. Yes, he is a nut!  😏 🙄 😮

@frank Frank;  I LOVE this year Vette and yours is a beauty!  That second pic is certainly an environment where the Outback would shine!  IMO they are awesome cars.

@jack-dodds Outback (3.6L) was the only picture I had on my iPad but both are suitable to their calling as it were.  😎.

A nice group of vehicles. I'm only posting my two current rides.
