More than words....

The countdown begins as our time together would be nearing the end. The Forester came in very handy today as I needed to bring our father to the hospital. As he had trouble standing up, the ride height of the Forester was on point. He had no trouble getting in and out of the seats and with his long legs, didn't complain one bit about any squeeze in the back.

While leaving SGH, it was pouring like no tomorrow. Fog lights were a godsend and rear wipers gave me a clear view, very much needed in the heavy rain. Going down the steep slippery slopes of A&E, the Forester gave me the feeling of being in total control. No wheel slip, no wobbly steering wheel, all good.

Dropped by Ikea as our dining table needed a replacement. Folding side mirrors were good for the tight parking lots and with the behemoth boot, we need not worry about any space constraints while choosing our dining table. Came back to the lot after our purchase and saw the whole row parked with 7 SUVs, what are the odds? The Forester's sleek lines and in vogue design made it standout from the pact. A few cars from us, a couple were figuring out how to squeeze their purchases into their SUV(I shan't name the make). I was spying from the corner of my eye(busybody attitude kicked in) and realized that after opening their rear gate, it just wasn't wide enough. Fortunately for us, with the Forester we didn't had much of a problem as expected and proceeded to move off while the earlier couple were still at it.
