Part of the reason my first ever new car was a Subaru. Famous for staying on the road for a decade plus. If you dont need a truck, Japanese made cars are pretty well superior to North American cars. I cant think of a North American hatchback car with what amounts to 4-wheel drive, 5ish L/100km...

I saw this and thought it was weird but I got to thinking about it and Im wondering they just decided to integrate the assets within existing battalions instead of a new organization wholly. We shall see.
