Your Vehicle is rated to get 16/23 MPG. Ascent is rated to gets 21/27 (slightly less with a "fancy oversized wheels" option.) Subi wins, by a lot.

The storage capacity is huge, and it's crash rating are nearly perfect - IIHS gave it a "top-pick plus" rating. But who's got $40K lying around to buy a brand-new monster SUV?
