Not a bit, but it is an interesting social discourse. I never made the connection about the Subaru and academics until this post came along. Now that I think back on the many Subarus that I have seen down here in the sub-tropic Carolinas where having a 4wd car is essential, I recall that most had some sort of “save this” or “save that” bumper sticker on the rear. I now understand why…  
My second car was a Subaru two door, two wheel drive hatchback. When I say that it was bulletproof, I am understating. NOTHING could hurt this car. I took good care of it, and it took good care of me…  
I didn’t have any bumper stickers on mine 🙂
