2008 Subaru Tribeca (continued)
|
|
|
Summary
The 2008 Subaru Tribeca has all the right feel of control and dexterity, plus impressive hauling capacity for people and things. The new engine makes it competitive in an increasingly tough midsize SUV/CUV class, and the revised suspension tuning adds to its refinement. Subaru's all-wheel drive technology is thoroughly debugged and proven. The revised styling makes it more attractive.
Tom Lankard filed this report from San Francisco after his test drive on the coastal roads north of the Bay Area and California's Central Valley, with Mitch McCullough reporting from the Wine Country and Kirk Bell reporting from Chicago.
