Started with Subaru with the Outback version of the Legacy and Impreza 10 years ago and now everyone is following. From my experience, AWDs are perfect for the snow and such, but taking one of these offroad is quite poor judgement, since they lack gound clearance and low range (same goes to all the other softroaders) ISince we dont have snow, even AWD is pretty useless. Give me a good station wagon anytime..... I didn;t quite get the raised platform design either.
