I bought my Crosstrek at Baierl and they have been great to deal with on the service side of things. They also gave me a much better trade-in amount for my old car than the other local dealers.

The Crosstrek has the exact same cargo space as the Impreza, which ain't much.

Not really anymore. Manufacturers are making less cars and keeping prices up on purpose now.

Any of them. Whichever you can afford and fits your needs. And used ones are generally decent.

It'll sell. Depends on the car but someone will take it.
The days of $2k beaters that last a year or two are gone.

You're not gonna get below MSRP on anything better than a Mitsubishi Mirage. Prices have peaked but interest rates have been on their way up and will continue to rise.
Find something you like and shop around to see who will give you closest to msrp. Don't wait or you're just gonna be stuck with a higher rate come fall.

I just bought a new car last week.
3 year old used models were going for what new ones were, so there was no point other than availability. Older than that, prices are stupid. As you can maybe tell by my username, I'm a Toyota fanboy - usually try to find something about 5 years old used. Those type of cars are still stupid inflated. Case in point : my wife's 2010 Camry got totaled, Blue Book Value had it worth 3500-6500, and insurance paid out nearly $9k (other person's insurance who was at fault). I paid $10k for it 7 years ago. Insane. And I don't trust Blue Book anymore.
Also Hybrids/electrics basically can't be gotten (at least from Toyota). Tried multiple dealerships. They're still dealing with supply issues. We put down a deposit on a non-hybrid model a week before it was built, still took 3 weeks for us to drive it off the lot.

It very much depends on your loved ones' needs to drive in all conditions at all hours.
Do they work in health care, emergency services, critical infrastructure, etc. and need to be at work any day, any time of day? Get AWD. City plowing especially can be spotty.
Are they retired and/or do they have jobs where they can work from home or take off during severe storms? Don't bother. It's been about five years since the freezing rain/snow/lack of plowing combination was so bad that people were trapped for an entire weekend.
Until recently, I had a FWD Ford Focus and had trouble on all seasons in winter, but getting winter tires fixed the problems I had with going uphill in the snow. I have the option of staying home in severe weather and I use that option to make room on the road for people who work in critical sectors.

You didn't but many of the responses were about where to get high tea in PGH.

Reply to comment by vulpesgato in Activism in Pittsburgh, anti war and Norfolk Southern caused chemical disaster by vulpesgato
I'm not sure why they are... I think it might have to do with the conflation of anti-war and being pro-Russia. You can condemn Russia and also understand that when there's a war, it's the working class who pays the price. I can't help but feel a little disappointed, honestly. It's like we learned nothing from the endless wars in the Middle East.
