I'm not a big fan of Subaru's junky fuel economy, but the wagons are definately better than SUVs and in many cases the extra traction is necessary for commuters in the more northern lands.
ABG has just announced that subaru will be bringing it's new diesel engine to the US soon, so for those people who drive subies, this'll be a decent goodness.
