old Subaru wagons and cheap Range Rovers: The official vehicles of Colorado. This is even more apparent as I ventured onto the Denver area Craigslist. So for your enjoyment this evening you have two vehicles to unload your upmost scrutiny upon.

First off, a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . I know, its barely a Landie, but it will give you the same frustrations when the steering wheel adjustment motor klunks out! The LR2 is equipped with a 3.2L inline six producing 230 hp @ 6000 RPM. The 3.3L is controlled by a shiftable 6-speed automatic, and a AWD system will allow you to summit a mountain of your choice.

Second, a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . This seems to be the default choice around here, and because they don’t freaking die, you never see any newer models on the road. This particular swagon is powered by the famous Subaru Boxer engine. A 2.5L producing 165 HP at 5,600 RPM, and 142 lb-ft at the same RPM. The Boxer is tethered to a 6-speed auto, and that to an AWD system.

Alright Opp0, what do you like? What don’t you like? Should I buy one of these, retreat to the mountains and off road for the remainder of my life? Let me know below!

Does the Land Rover come with a CarMax warranty? If not, PASS!

The Subaru is overpriced.

It is, but there are a nearly infinite amount of other SuWags from anywhere from 500-10,000

A friend of mine had an LR2 for a while. He disliked it.

My sister has a Subaru like the one you posted. She likes it, but she’s also an aimless bohemian wanderer, so I dislike it.

If you own a green Subie you will NEVER find your car in a parking lot here. However, I’ve been considering one as a winter beater for awhile. Not necessarily green :)

Well, neither. The LR2 is a money pit and the Outback is overpriced - six grand for a 15 year-old car with 100k+ miles?!? - but then again, it’s Colorado, and everybody knows how much Subie love there is out there.

Subaru is $2,000 too much. Those things were also rustbuckets.

Long day, driving 12 hours going the same direction on the freeway will take it out of you.
