If you live in some pansy-ass fair weather city, then Subaru is probably a niche vehicle that would attract the homosexual crowd.

If you lived where there's snow you'd quickly realize that AWD Subarus, while a bit pricey, are easily the best snow-driving vehicles you can get for daily use.

Umm you've obviously not drive in snow long enough then if you think an AWD Subaru is the best snow driving vehicle for daily use.

To be honest, it's an INCREDIBLE vehicle in snow. My family has owned many trucks (both 4wd and 2wd variety) and the absolute best vehicle was my stepfather's Subaru Loyale. We were in Utah at the time.

FWIW, it's the reason I bought it. Driving with complete control through inclement weather. That and it handles much like a CRX but AWD and a bit longer.

I meant to say "for the money". Sure, you could spend $40,000+ on a big ass truck but you'll get shitty mileage out of it. People who live in the snow and buy 4WD trucks and SUVs are dumbasses. They think that 4WD and mass will save them. I commuted across a snow plain that routinely shuts down due to wind for 5+ years in my FWD Corolla and every winter I would pass dumbshits who put their $40,000+ vehicles into the ditch by driving 65 in 4WD on a sheet of ice while I didn't even need chains.

You live in LA, how the hell would you know? If you lived in New England, you would realize that there are Subaru's everywhere due to their snow driving ability.

I thought that until I moved to the Northwest. Everyone has them out here. Go to a trailhead and you'll see about 50% subarus. Of course the newer subarus look completely different so they don't have as much stigma.

Mine is absolutely awesome for bombing down forestry roads and going to the ski resorts (like Mt. Baker, the snowiest place in the world).

I have an 02 WRX Wagon. It's a very practical car and I love the amount of room I have with the backseats down. I also get about 23-24 mpg mixed driving. And obviously in IL, I love the AWD.


BTW, I think Outbacks are the no. 1 lesbian car. Go look it up.

Top 10 Top Lesbian Cars

1. Subaru Forester
I was going to pick the Subaru Outback for my top car. That is until I test drove the Subaru Forester. I was so impressed, I drove it all the way home! The Subaru Forester is great for lesbians with kids or dogs. It's as roomy as a SUV, but drives like a car. With 4WD, anti-lock brakes and side air bags, it's one of the safest cars on the market. It handles well on road and off. This is the perfect car for outdoorsy types. Take it camping or snow boarding with no worries!

2. Volkswagen Beetle Convertible
Cute as a bug. You'll be sure to turn the girlie's heads as you cruise by in the new Volkswagen Beetle convertible with the top down rocking out to Gwen Stefani. This is the perfect car if you're a California gal or just California dreamin'.

3. Honda Civic
Aaron, the About Car Guide says, "The new Honda Civic is totally practical and a big hit with women." It handles nicely and comes equiped with all the greatest safety equipment. There's a reason this is one of the most popular cars on the market. It's reliable, has great resale value and comes in a hybrid or gas powered version.

4. Toyota Prius
If you're a tree hugger like me, (And most lesbians are, aren't they?) then you want a car that not only gets you where you're going, but does it in a way that's easy on the environment. The new Toyota Prius is a great car, that just happens to be a hybrid.

5. Mercedes Benz R Class
This is the fantastic car that Dana won on season 3 of The L Word. When Dana won this car, did sales of Mercedes Benz R Class series cars go up? A loyal advertiser in gay and lesbian media, you'll be putting your money where your values are if you buy this car. That is if you can afford the price tag.

6. Mini Cooper
L Word fans, Dana won a Mercedes Benz, but isn't Alice adorable in that Mini Cooper? How much fun would you have zipping around town in this cutey? About car reviewer Colin Hefferon has this to say about the new Mini Cooper, "Reviewers and buyers alike agree the 2500 lb MINI is a hoot to drive." If you want to smile every day on your commute to work, a Mini Cooper may be just what you need.

7. Ford F-150 Pickup Truck
Lesbian love trucks. And it's not just to save money on U-haul. The Ford F-150 pickup is perfect for those frequent trips to Home Depot or weekend soccer tournaments. Despite their little slip this year, Ford has consistently supported the gay and lesbian community and its GLBT employees. It was one of the few companies to earn 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equity Index. This is a truck you can buy with pride.

8. Dodge Magnum
For the butch with a family, or one who just isn't a truck person, Dodge has come out with a great muscle car for the lesbian body builder. What you give up in fuel economy, you make up for in power. The Dodge Magnum RT delivers 340 hp and 390 lb-ft of torque from its 5.7 Liter Hemi V8 engine. If you know what that means, then this is the car for you.

9. Honda Element
Whatever your sport, the Honda Element is the car for the jock on the go. Throw your surfboards in back and head to the beach in this roomy SUV alternative. My friend with a Great Dane loves his Honda Element, because not only does his 160 lb dog fit in the back, with it's rubber mat interior, he just has to hose the back down at the end of a muddy romp. Plus, with it's unique styling, you're sure to attract attention as you cruise down the street.

10. Jeep Wrangler
If you spend time on the road and off, you can't do better than the Jeep Wrangler. Jeep started the whole SUV craze and continues to deliver a great car for both rugged forest roads and quiet city streets. Built as a utility vechile, it's not the most comfortable ride in town, but pull up to the lesbian bar with the top down and the girls will know right away you're a good-time gal.

No joke. Serious question. I was talking to my father about the older Mercedes that I own. He then asked me what I was driving around. Before I knew it he said "as long as it's not a gay Subaru."

I drive an Impreza.

Am I gay?

Your DAD is in the closet and calling Subaru ownership gay shows his secret longing to own one.

I don't think of Subarus as gay cars. When I think of gay car I think of VW (any) and the Mazda Miata.

I only know one other gay (male) that owns one besides myself. Most of us seem to gravitate to VW and Honda.

Two of my lesbian friends have foresters lol, then again I have a few gay friends with jettas so go figure.

only if you are male and enjoy giving/receiving oral sex or giving/receiving anal sex from a male partner in the back seat.

Of course you do that anywhere you are probably gay, sexually confused or "experimenting"

This is the first time I've heard anything like this. When I was looking for another car early last year my choices were the Subaru Legacy vs the Honda Accord.

What veered me away from the Legacy was the price and the fact that I have any need of Awd maybe 3 days a year.

Besides I love boobies too much to ever be gay.

Haha, we have a friend who actually has a Tundra and uses it to haul stuff to her soccer games. Her girlfriend drives a Focus too. So beware! Those may be moving up the list.

AWD >>> 4WD for snow. I hated having to switch my Frontier in and out of 4WD as the road conditions change. With AWD you can just drive no matter the road surface.
