with the need for premium fuel to get the maximum performance, then the decreased fuel economy over the standard naturally aspirated engine , and based on my local gas prices at this very moment and driving 15000 miles a year just as an average , it would cost me $617 more a year to drive the turbo model using that premium fuel at the current gas price. Interesting thats all . . Not talking it Down. Then I guess times that by 5 years of so , and that's how much more it "could" cost you to do the same type of driving you do with the non-turbo model .
Also noticed turbo is standard on the cx-9 at a $34k, trim level , but for the cx-5 you have you be just barely under $40000 mark ..

Checked prices, and.....CX5 Signature: $38,480, Forester Touring: $36,482. I prefer the non CVT and more HP than the Forester. Who knows anything about the RAV4 as a result of Toyota secrecy.

Yes, I am aware of that. I was didn't mention anything about the Forester having a turbo for 2019. Just the 'plain Jane Forester'.

Yeah, but how do you get a plain Jane forester 36K? That is a 32K car if not 30K. That is what I did not get.

I referred to the Forester as 'plain Jane' for a specific reason. It is a practical vehicle containing many technological advantages, but the style has not changed in years. It is practical, albeit not very imaginative in styling. My daughter has a 2005 Forester 2.5 and it doesn't look much different than the 2019 model. Larger version with more 'gimmicks' attached. I shall reiterate, what I meant was the Forester appears 'plain Jane' to me whether the base model or the top of the line model. I just like the looks of the CX5 better.
