Three months ago I bought a Subaru Forester. With the front wheel off the bike fits easily. I'm averaging 27.5mpg, mostly hwy miles. For me another big perk is that it sits a bit higher off of the ground meaning that I can step out of it rather than needing to pull myself up and out. (my mind is much younger than my body) Big windows all the way around which means bike is there for all to see and admire but makes it easy to see out of when on the road and when backing out of the drive. All in an all wheel drive vehicle, which will in theory make my passengers feel safer this winter.
