My Subaru Outback has been, with the exception of a well-known issue, very good to me.
Right now it's 11 years old (I keep meaning to get the airbag inspected, as is recommended) and I intend to keep driving it for at least several more years.
At that time, I'll replace it with another Outback or Legacy.

Yeah, but we've all tried to kill you in rush hour traffic on I66.
My experience with GM products comes mainly from family and friend cars, but it's not a record of happiness and joy. From the 1930s onwards my Grandfather was a confirmed Oldsmobile man. Until the 1980s, when he had three successive lemons.
