When I was first asked if I wanted to participate in the Subaru Forester Blogger Program, I had mixed emotions. Of course I wanted to test out a car that so many seem loyal to. On the other hand, I had never been a fan of the design. I’m sooooooo glad that the 2014 model got an all-new design!
With a graphite exterior and leather interior, this was not the old station-wagon previously pictured in my mind. The 2014 Subaru Forester is more like a smaller crossover that gave you both height and security.
