Seems every time I find a car I like, then do the online Build A Car, it always ends up around $35-40 grand.

Subaru's are not the cheapest, but are a good quality vehicle. Once you add all the bells and whistles to a car in the same category no matter which manufacturer they all end up to be the same price, give or take a couple thousand.

FWIW, I thought our baseline AWD Rav4 (4cyl) was a pretty good deal for what it comes with, it was under $30,000(even less down there). I know it isn't exactly what you would be looking for, but once you start adding the little extra's the price climbed up pretty quickly.

You gots spensive taste!

Take a Corolla/Civic... buy a set of snow tires and you have a good all weather vehicle that will get you from A to B just fine.

Your right. I'd gots expensive tastes. Somehow a cheap car isn't going to satisfy me.

I made 3 times more money trading stocks in the month of January, than what my company paid me for the month. Cool, huh?

At this rate, I should have about 6 million by the end of the year. Maybe I'll put off buying that car for a few to put compounding into action. I might be able to retire quicker than I thought.

Did you know that you can double your money every 2 months by making 2 percent every working day? The stocks I trade move up and down about 5 to 30% at a time. Have to catch a portion of those upward moves with a fraction of the account every day to make that happen.

I thought all Subaru's were AWD

They are now, but back in their early days they offered FW and AW drive.

Actually, they're not again. They've got that FWD sports car that they built with Toyota.
