What do you guys think about the Subaru XV Crosstrek? My family is looking for a good crossover with good gas mileage that's under $25k. The XV just came out and starts at ~$21k.

The commercial for this car is pretty badass. I'm sure you Subie lovers will like this.

The XV is just an Impreza. Go sit in an Impreza at a Subaru dealership and you'll know how big (or not), it is.
I would recommend a new/used: Subaru Forester Subaru Outback, Toyota Rav4, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Honda CRV..... granted some have many more features than others

I just noticed that it did look like an Impreza. The power isn't too exciting too compared to other competition. Thanks!

The specs on the Ford Fiesta ST have been released. Using a “high-output variant” of the same 1.6-liter EcoBoost four found in the Euro ST and in our Fusion family sedan

Ford Advises 4ycl EcoBoost Escape & Fusion Owners To Park Their Cars
Ford has announced a recall of 89,153 vehicles equipped with 1.6-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engines over the possibility of overheating and, in some instances, fires starting in the engine compartment. The brand new 2013 Fusion accounts for 15,833 of the affected models, the other 73,320 being the 2013 Escape. This is the fourth time the recently launched Escape has been recalled, and this is the third time the recall has involved the 1.6-liter engine.

In a statement issued Friday, Ford confirmed that there have been new reports of these engines overheating, resulting in fires while the engine is running. No injuries have been reported in conjunction with this issue, and Ford states that the affected vehicles' instrument clusters may display warning notifications reading, "Engine Power Reduced to Lower Temps" or "Engine over temp, stop safely."

Ford is currently working on a repair procedure and will notify owners as soon as a fix is found. In the meantime, the automaker is urging owners to stop driving these affected vehicles and to contact a Ford dealer to arrange for alternate transportation at no charge.
