I live in northern California. Last weekend I drove up to Washington and back on highway 97 which passes through the center of the state.
I was amazed at the number of Outback wagons I passed and the almost total lack of Imprezzas and Foresters. In California, quantities of Outback and Foresters are pretty evenly matched with a liberal dose of Impressa/WRX's mixed in.
Why do Oregonians just love Outbacks?
