Here's a great summary of Suburu Forester owners' reports regarding price, convenience factors, reliability, and other mechanical matters. A Car Place (2004)
To say that the Forester is an Impreza on stilts is an oversimplification. The current generation Forester is considerably more refined than the previous generation, and that one was competitive with other medium sized SUVs. Statesman Classifieds (2004)
A revved-up Subaru for everyday errands. Canadian Driver (2003)
While it rides on the same 99.4-inch wheelbase as last year's model, overall dimensions of the Forester have changed. It's slightly smaller on the outside, but interior room is improved. Consumer Guide (2003)
Redesigned as an early 2003 entry, Forester gets new styling and more leg room than its 1998-2002 predecessor, but stays within the compact-SUV class. Epinions (2003)

The steering is a bit vague at speed, and the soft suspension tuning results in noticeable body roll, but for day-to-day driving, it's comfortable and controllable enough to be on par with the best-handling compact SUVs on the market. MSN Autos (2003)
New for 2003: The Forester has been redesigned for the 2003 model year, sporting all-new styling, a roomier interior, a more rigid chassis, and a number of new features. New Car Test Drive (2003)
New design brings more room, better handling. The Car Connection (2003)

Because it isn't as tall as a sport-utility (it's 2.5 inches lower than a Toyota RAV4), it's easier to load a kayak, skis, sailboard, duffels or other gear onto the roof. Yahoo Autos (2002)
The 2002 Forester is a 4-door, 5-passenger sport-utility, available in 3 trims, ranging from the L to the S Premium Package. The 2002 Forester's closest competitors include the Buick Rendezvous, the Mazda Tribute, and the Toyota RAV4. A Car Place (2001)
