    Hammer purchased this Subaru Forester new for $41,500 (including all on-road costs). Hammer would buy this car again because: "The Forester has been a great choice for me. Living regionally I wanted something that would cruise comfortably over regional roads for long distances, but also be a practical family car – with a full safety pack – plus the ability to go to the snow and go on back gravel roads.
