good for you @Sean Monahan I don't think you'll regret it at all, you'll be blowing Yaris' off the road in no time.
I've been trying a lot of cars lately, trying to find one that has a a decent plug in electric range along with AWD of some variety. Thats why I tried the Crosstrek they supposedly have one coming. I'm waiting for the Rav 4 phev to come out so I can try that one next.

Sean i think youll appreciate the practicality of the Forester. I'm assuming it's an XT since you said it's supercharged (they're actually turbo, not supercharged but w/e). We have 2 Subarus in our household, an older Impreza still going strong and a 17 Forester which, although I'm not thrilled with the cvt -especially since the Impreza is manual - , has done everything we've asked it to do flawlessly. You mentioned you weren't happy with the power of the Crosstrek, I'm wondering if the dealer informed you that the '21 model year Crosstrek's were likely getting larger motors - probably from the current Forester?
Anyway, enjoy the Fozzy, my advice is to get some proper dedicated snow tires (we use studded), and that thing will essentially be unstoppable in all but totally apocalyptic weather conditions.
