When we moved to Golden it appeared that everyone in our general demographic had a jogging stroller, a Subaru, and a black lab. We have no plans to get a dog; our jogging stroller has probably been the best baby-related purchase we made; and now we have a well-used (but hopefully mechanically sound) Subaru. Each time I get behind the wheel, dad's words ring in my ears, "4-wheel drive just allows you to get stuck in more interesting and less accessible places."
