My hubby wants a Honda, I want a Subaru. We cannot agree on what to buy. I detest Honda cars, how they drive and their lack of features in the cabin. He loves them for their reliability, but will not agree to spend more on a Subaru.
How do people make these kinds of decisions? We have two cars and we drive them interchangably. So it's not like I will be driving this car more often, or he will, etc.
Each of you should buy your own car, and stop driving each other's.

I am with your husband on this. Subaru's are overrated.
I would say any Honda brand (Acura, Honda) and any Toyota brand (Lexus, Scion, and Toyota) are the best and most reliable cars to buy.
After that Mitsubishi and after a big gap Subaru.
Anything else beyond that is just luck of the draw.

Hondas and Subarus are both incredibly reliable cars! I owned a Honda for 9 years until I sold it, and it never gave me any major problems whatsoever. If you're kind to it via regular maintenance, it will be kind to you.
We have been married 28 years and we just take turns. Last year it was my turn so she gets the next pic, we discuss each others choices but there are no exceptions or veto's. Up to this point it has worked out pretty well.

My wife and I buy cars together but it's pretty much this is my car and that is her car. While I may get in it and drive it once in a while the primary driver picks what car they want. I have some input about the reliability or brand etc but overall even though were buying the vehicle together we each say what we drive. Weather the other person likes it or not makes no difference. It's the drivers car.
Our needs are different just like our likes and dislikes.

This is how we always did it...we both worked and both had different criteria.
We traded off sometimes but basically I drove my car, he drove his.
I don't think we are going to hear from the OP again, though.
Even though you and hubby drive the cars interchangeably, I suggest making one car primarily yours, and one car primarily his. You get the choice of what car you want, and he gets the choice of what car he wants. Problem solved!
