Hey Scotty how’s a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek Limited with 20K miles? Is it good for a first car?

Main weak point is the CVT, though with only 20K miles it should have a lot of life left in it. How long would you intend to keep it? (Probably won't last 300K miles, but should make it to 100-150K all right.) Do you live in an area that gets a lot of snow? The all-wheel-drive system is a plus for that, but if you have mild winters you don't really need that and would probably be better off with a front-drive Toyota or Honda.

The most-voiced complaint I hear about Crossteks equipped with the 2.0 engine is lack of power, which may be a factor especially if you live in a hilly or mountainous area.
