Subaru parts, you're limited to fewer outlets, but there are aftermarket shops that specialize in Subarus, so you can look around. It's not like the RAV4 is a cheap vehicle to maintain, either... it's a semi-luxury CUV that only comes in in limited numbers, so spare parts outside the casa won't be as easy to get as, say, for the Fortuner or Corolla.
Durability, Subaru is ranked mid-range in the US... comparable to Nissan or Mazda... which means the difference between them and Toyota really isn't that big. (Mazda beats Toyota in some quality surveys run by warranty service providers... which have more concrete data than JDPowers, since their numbers are based on actual repairs and not survey results.)
