@Adogslife so is it better or worse?

@Thexboxoneguy1991 in initial quality, the Subaru is less than average. However, in retained value they would jump many above them. If you’re not talking about “luxury” brands, Subaru is probably a top four brand.

@Thexboxoneguy1991 Subaru has had a few issues with their slipomatic transmission. And oil consumption trying to get better mileage.

Chevrolet beating Honda in reliability. 😂 I guess Honda couldn’t be bothered to pay off JD Powers @Adogslife

@stratosranger Yeah, it’s initial quality and Honda has had a couple bad recall years. If Chevy didn’t have the Silverado, they’d probably be bankrupt.
Barring trucks, Chevy can’t hold a candle to Honda. Honda is just a better made vehicle, that’s more reliable in the long term and is guaranteed to hold its value dramatically better.

It’s a damned shame American motor manufacturers can’t do better. Sometimes they get it right. I had a 98 Ford Crown Victoria which was a classic example of a vehicle that was well made, was still running at 250,000 when I finally traded it in and only had one “major” problem: the alternator needed to be replaced somewhere around the 100K mark!! (Comparably that is not a problem at all). I finally had to give her up because of the winter driving for an all wheel drive. That was a solid car. Loved that car. It cleared out those morons malingering in the left lane every time! 😂 @Adogslife
