Subarus make the best ski/bike cars in my opinion. They're great for ski and bike racks, and the all wheel drive works like a dream. We were going up into the mountains a few weeks ago in my stepdad's f-250 and had to stop because there wasn't enough grip due to snow and ice, then an outback went by with no problems, it was sweet.

foresters have a bit more room in the back for your bike, but outbacks are still sweet

I have a forester, but I just have a bike rack on the back(hitch-mounted). There's actually a little more space in the back of the outback as far as length goes, but the forester is taller.

SUV's blow for winter driving, false sense of power.
WRX=worst snow car.
