 Bought this used about 2 months ago - 79k, $5500..  It seemed like a great deal for a $35k suv.  Acceleration / Transmission seem to not "communicate" with each other.  I do not know if it wants to go or slow down.  There is a disconnect between what the driver whats to do, and what the car actually does.  I took it in for a tune up- as i do w/ all my used cars.  $500- not too bad.  Then some drive shaft support broke, $500 more.  Ok- I usually plan on putting double into what I pay for a used car- hey, they are used..  but, little things are starting to pop up.  Like mentioned by other users.  This reminds me of my old BMW X5 - MONEY PIT waiting to happen.  I will probably try to broom it onto some other unsuspecting person, that did not do their homework, like i did not do mine.  I think I an just going to stick with Subarus now..  Well built, and few issues.
