Wow, didn't think there would be so many former Jeep owners here. Color me surprised.

I just sold my '16 Wrangler Rubicon with a lot of mods for an '18 Crosstrek Premium.

Jeeps are fun, but not fun every day. For me anyway. That, and I was finding it more difficult to get in and out of the lifted Jeep. So, time for a change.

I had an '84 GL Wagon that I loved. That made me look up Subies again. And here I am

Didn't trade in but sold my 1995 Nissan Pathfinder for $1400 and got the 2016 Limited Crosstrek. Wanted to keep the Patfinder(it was like a tank in snow)but it was starting to nickel and dime me with repairs and didn't want to pay insurance etc ...on two cars. Pathfinder had only 175000 miles on it.

Started out with a 2006 Toyota Corolla (sold it)

Went to a 2015 Subaru Crosstrek Premium (it got totaled)

Bought a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek Premium w/ Eyesight (love it)

Didn't trade in, but selling a Jeep Commander. Gas hog.

Still have my '15 wrangler though. Keeping that baby.

No trade but I will be selling my 2007 Audi A4 wagon when I take delivery of the Crosstrek. After a year of riding in the back seat because of a passenger front airbag recall that is still outstanding my wife is fed up!

I love the A4 but tired of feeding it Premium gas as well.

1997 Toyota Tacoma w/370k on the ODO. Not a trade in, I sold it first. Loved that truck but it was not a good commuter vehicle and that's what I needed mostly. I can still go out in the country off paved roads and in fact the Subaru is way better for that!

Traded a 2018 BMW M140i in for my 2018 crosstrek......whilst the bmw was very,very fast it was a very uncomfortable car,the primary and secondary ride being poor,even for a performance car.

I found the seating also to be uncomfortable and the rear legroom limited.

No Android auto which I thought I could get around but missed having it.

Far too many on the road for me too,I tend to buy rarer cars and in the uk,Subaru don't sell that many cars anymore.

Anyway,traded in the bimmer and absolutely love my crosstrek (still called xv here) and don't regret it for a minute.

I might look at adding a brz to the stable in the future tho😁

I traded a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta with 210,000 miles on it. Loved that car, very fun to drive; but the maintenance began getting old. I do still miss the VW at times, but do not regret getting my (pre-loved) 2013 Crosstrek - at all.

2016 VW GTI SE... Started to get a "little too low to the ground" once I hit 50 a couple years back. Prior to that I had a 2004 SAAB 9-3.

Yeah, that was part of it, too. Got tired of falling into it and climbing out of it....

Gave up on a 2017 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk with everything on it. Could NOT modify lighting to LED without converters on every light source. More comfortable than the Crosstrek and larger, but not being able to upgrade a modern electrical system did not make any sense to me. Love my 2016 Crosstrek Limited. Not as big, not as comfy, not as off road ready.............But it can be modified much cheaper then a Jeep. A lot better fuel milage too. IMHO
