   I have a Subaru Forester with a five-speed stick shift that drives like a    
   sports car. I got it because the passenger seat was at a good height   
   for my wife to climb in from her wheelchair, and the cargo space was   
   the perfect size for a folded-up wheelchair. But I love taking that thing    
   up a steep hill. It growls, it leaps, and then it purrs.
