Hey BMW, if you want more folks to buy your cars, stop marketing to douchebags.
Or don’t, idgaf. On my 7th Subaru now. Still very happy.
On my 7th Subaru now.

I used to ask tow truck drivers (when I occasionally met one) which brand car they tow the most. It was always without hesitation “Subarus”
I have driven about 1.5M miles over 7 Subarus.
