Id like to thank our Subaru Retailers for a record April performance and their fourth month of retail sales growth this year, said Tim Colbeck, vice president of sales for Subaru of America. It is nice to see growth in each of our car lines, especially in a tough economy. Our all-new Forester is off to a great start and to add to the excitement it just won a Crossover SUV comparison with its competitors in the June edition of Motor Trend. With these strong products and dealers we are well positioned to continue to build on these successful results.
