Ford's Sales Slide Due To F-150 Supply Constraints

I think every state has sections like that, you visit once or because a family member or friend is there and then you never go back again.

My sister went to the University of Illinois (Champagne/Urbana) so I went there a handful of times. I haven't gone back since she left though. There's really no reason so, hahaha. 

I honestly have not heard of issues with Subaru CVTs, but mostly I think it is a preference between the CVT versus traditional geared transmission for folks. The bigger issue I have with ICE Subaru is that their motors seem to end up needing major rebuild work at 100,000 miles. I have two neighbors that love their Subaru's and have had to have the motors have major work done at 100,000 miles and then years later finally hitting 200,000 miles they went and bought brand new Subaru's which I find weird imho. Kinda like Kia and their Oil consumption problem on their ICE engines. Some people just go back and buy another one, others move onto other brands. So what ever model you do go for, I would say do your due diligence, check the recalls, check the major maintenance schedule and what people have had to deal with to see if it works or not for you and the way you drive.

Just noticing that you're further east than I thought.  I'm kidding ... because I hated Champaign-Urbana.  It was like pulling teeth.

Champagne/Urbana? I would for a car purchase, but that's like 2.5 hours away. I'll make a drive for the right car at the right price. I drove to Indianapolis for my current Navigator. That's about 4-4.5 hours away. I drove to Chicago for my C350. That's also 4-4.5 hours away. I drove past Louisville for my Mach 1. That was about 5 hours.
