Forester or RAV4. I’d avoid VW due to reliability concerns

Yes!!!! Good advice!

My wife and I love our Tiguan

like

Tiguan, way better build quality and features than the Toyota and relatively cheaper for the level of trim you get

lol what? Newer VWs are notorious for lack of build quality

VW & Subaru Salesperson here! If new, I'd go for the VW all day. I've had 2 VW's, 7 Subaru's, and am currently dailying an '05 Forester XT. Subaru's are great, but the new CVT's are garbage. Tiguan is a much nicer vehicle and will out perform the Forester all day. 2.0l turbo, plus the traditional automatic. Get the SE+ trim in a Tiguan for the best bang for your buck. Also consider the warranty.

VW: 4yr/50k bumper to bumper & powertrain, 2-3yr maintenance included, oil changes every 10k miles

Subaru: 3yr/36k bumper to bumper, 5yr/60k powertrain, no maintenance included, oil changes every 6k miles.

Also, VW will perform better in a rollover crash. My MIL owns one and we have no issues fitting a rear facing car seat.

If you do decide to go the Forester route, the '25s are 100% worth it over the 2024's

I love my '23 rav4. Put 50k miles on it so far.

Trying to determine if Toyota/subaru reliability outweighs the driving experience of the Tiguan. Also, need to fit a rear facing car seat in the back

It’ll be my wife’s main driver, and to her a car is a car wrt driving experience. I’d prefer something not boring for when I end up driving, which is why I worry about the rav4. She’s in a ux250h right now

RAV4 no doubt

Hornet 24 month lease

Do a 2 yr lease on a loaded tiguan and then figure out if you want to upgrade later

Just purchased Subaru Outback on Friday-Love it

Depend on area cars are good I seen rav4 more long lasting then vw or forestor

Deffo recommend trying it!

Brigadeiro are scrumptious dulce de leche caramel bonbons, a beloved confection of Brazil. Brigadeiro is made from sweetened condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder which is heated in a saucepan until it thickens and becomes a sticky caramel. Once it cools, it is rolled into a ball and dipped in multicolored sprinkles.

The iconic bonbon was named after Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes, a 1946 presidential candidate. It was created to win voter support. (He lost).

I just bought an Alexa for my grandma's birthday. Her old radio broke and she's been kind of sad because she can't listen to her favorite music anymore while cooking, so I thought this would be a good pick. She'll have her favorite music right there.

Later today my grandpa tells me she's not been asking Alexa for her favorite music, but for her radio stations instead 😭😂

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?
