I have owned 2 Foresters (2010-2017) and very happy with them. Thinking about new (2024) Crosstrek.
Don't need to sell me on Subarus but want to know if I'll be disappointed with Crosstrek.
Thanks in advance

Drive both and see which one works for your needs. My elderly family member went from a MY11 Outback to a MY18 Crosstrek. The car was much safer for them as the handling was better, vastly better visibility, Eyesight, and was much better for them size-wise(IE Outback way too big for them). Good luck with the search.
Elderly? Well I'm 78 so I guess I qualify. Really though, that's the info that I need so thanks. Maybe a little worried about entry and exit as it looks (specs) like Crosstrek is lower so don't want to hit my head on entry or exit. Gotta keep those brain cells as long as I can. Ha Ha
