The Subaru Forester is one of the most popular SUV's in the Milwaukee area and Sommer's Subaru carries the largest selection in Wisconsin. The Forester is so popular because of its manageable size, its standard all wheel drive, its low cost of maintenance and of course, the Subaru safety story. If there was a perfect car for Milwaukee and Wisconsin, we are biased, but it would be the Subaru Forester. It is one of the most award winning SUV's on the market and provides safe, reliable transportation to many Sommer's customers and employees. If you are in the market for an economical SUV that will dominate the Wisconsin winters, the 2012 Subaru Forester is the car for you.

They claim that there are more Subarus with over 100,000 miles on the road than any other manufacturer which is quite a feat seeing as Subaru has a much smaller market share than other manufacturers. What does this mean for you? RELIABILITY. The last thing on your mind should be your car (except for how fun to drive it is!) and the Forester is a vehicle that provides peace of mind. The Forester's 2.5L boxer 4 cylinder engine is famous for its low center of gravity, its efficiency and its responsiveness. Subaru has been using the boxer engine for a long time. This engine, and the all wheel drive system are what has made Subaru famous.

All wheel drive-it's something that people require in Milwaukee. But many people don't want to have to pay a premium for this feature AND have to sacrifice on fuel economy. The 2012 Forester provides a solution because it offers all wheel drive as a standard feature and you are still getting 27 miles to the gallon! Many guests come in and cross-shop between the CR-V, the RAV-4 and the Subaru Forester. All are great cars (no one makes a bad car), but something that we ask is "is all wheel drive important to you?" Usually the answer is "yes" which is why they are looking for an SUV in this category. Our response is that all wheel drive is what Subaru does, it's all they do, it is not an add-on or something that you can get as an option. The mechanical equipment on the car is built around the all wheel drive system. The competition can not say the same, all wheel drive is an option.

The interior of the 2012 Subaru Forester is largely the same as the 2011. A spacious front driver and passenger area with plenty of distance between the two parties. There is a plethora of head room in the Forester, an adjustable arm rest for the front driver and passenger, large bottle holders in front to accommodate the large Starbucks coffee or an over-sized water bottle. The middle seat is comfortable for 3 full size adults, there are flip out cup holders and a flip down arm-rest. The middle seat folds down for a virtually flat cargo area that you will be very pleased with when hauling those difficult to carry items. Its why we buy the SUV, right?

Subaru is known for their impeccable safety standards and the Forester is part of that reputation. The 2012 Subaru Forester comes standard with front and side impact air bags, the boxer 4 cylinder engine has an extremely low center of gravity which helps handling and also prevents the engine from coming into the front seat in case of a head on collision. The heavy duty steel frame keeps passengers safe in the event of a side impact collision.

The new 2012 Subaru Forester meets the requirements of a large number of customers in Milwaukee. It handles city driving with a comfortable, fuel efficient ride, it is a joy to drive in inclement weather, and it is an excellent vehicle for taking off road to get to your favorite escape. Many people who purchase the Forester need the extra space over what a sedan provides, but they don't want a big, bulky SUV. They need the all wheel drive but they don't want to pay a premium for that feature or for the gas. Forester customers need a vehicle to support their busy lifestyles, they want to enjoy riding in their vehicle and they want to be able to count on it. They also want to keep themselves and their family in the safest of situations.
