If he is more than averagely adamant, let the guy have the Forester for the sake of peace ....there is a love affair between men and Subarus, you might deny him his wish now, you get the Avensis, only for him to spend some 1.5 mil and rock up with a Forester one evening without telling you. true.

mwambie gari la shamba ni pickup.
kataa kabisa, actually escalate the war from a cold one to a hot one, serve him with very hot food and add a small layer of cool food at the top of the plate and let him dig in, also change the instant shower switch from cool to hot.
let him know you are very serious. this hubby of mine loves to spend time in the shamba on weekends ,am contemplating of withholding landing rights and shutdown the airport Moods, headaches, low libido. ..those a fellow can understand, suffer through... This though is blackmail, really low ..over a car? Hehehehe...how about if you disagree over something major, like which house to buy or which school to take the little ones? Will it be wanking for the next 18 months for the guy? Poor dude.

Forget the Toyotas for which you have to buy chains, gear locks, screws, immobilizers and a nyahunyu and it you still live with the fear that it could be stolen or vandalized. In as much as you are a stakeholder, thats his "territory". Unless you can tell me you discuss with him whether to use omo, ariel or sunlight for washing clothes in your household.Just give him your opinion and leave it at that. Lord, thank you!

You know at some point the plane will have to land so if your airport is shut down, he will just land at Enteebe or Dar and who knows landing fees my just be cheaper and economical than in Kenya.
Out of experience of going to the Shamba use the Subaru, toyota's are for going to the work place and sitting in the Jam, they really get worn down by the soil and matope of shamba. Secondly consumption of Subaru and Avensis are simmilar on longer distances. The difference is when sitting in a jam where the Sub revs higher and burns slightly more fuel. You can afford the Sub if you can afford the Avensis so stop pushing your choice!

From my vantage point, the way I see it, this is no longer about the car. It's now morphing into a power play. I could be wrong though, but then again....  Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

And fyi so many ladies are driving and looking good in the Forester. If that does not convince you, think safety, the Subaru has much better traction on the road, is easier to handle, on highways so fast that overtaking is safer, can negotiate steep corners at speeds of up to 160kph and still handle safely (at that speed your Toyota will be taking off like a plane). The running costs of the 2 cars are basically the same.

D4 engines (Most Avensis) are problematic and neither do i think a forester is a good car but of the two,the latter is a better devil. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
