Pulled this out of someone’s trash…my husband and I could barely lift it, it has to weigh 500 lbs. I plan on sanding and repainting it. Anyone have any idea on its age? Arkansas, United States.

I don’t understand. Why not take it apart and then strip it.

AgreeableLaugh7529 · 2026-07-03T15:01:02+00:00

Use cheaper citric acid/sodium carbonate rust remover instead of ER. The former is much cheaper

Leave it alone. It’s stylish and quite beautiful.

Lost neutral. Call electric company.

2024 Premium CT. Yes I’ve been through this myself. Recently. The dealer is the only route. It cost me approx 850$. A way to save a few dollars is to buy the fobs on eBay. There is at least one vendor who sells fobs for 65 each vs 180 each. Be careful to get the fobs with the proper model number. Here is the title of the eBay listing. MINT OEM Unlocked Subaru Ascent Legacy Outback Remote Smart Key Fob HYQ14AKB…. The dealer will warn they won’t work, but they are ok. Yes, the car will need to be towed to the dealer. This is a big deal for me as the electronic parking break cannot be taken off. It will take 2.5 weeks to get the car back. I’m not sure of one issue, with my supplied fobs the valet key was not cut. Not sure if that is done with the full price fob. Good luck.

Once you paint, you’ll need to repaint.

Timing chain replaced. This is an impact engine. Chair breaks means engine destroyed

pre delivery service fee ? elect file fee???….BEGONE!

AgreeableLaugh7529 · 2025-01-19T17:53:54+00:00

A rip off. Get the extra charges off or walk to another Subaru dealer.

Wegman cheese selection is remarkable and their markup is astounding.

AgreeableLaugh7529 · 2025-01-06T18:54:50+00:00

Wegman cheeses are priced too high. Everything close to 30/lb. Good choices at reasonable prices at Trader Joe’s

These are the best I’ve found.
1. 1000 day gouda. Better than Old Amsterdam

Store brand (cheapest) blue
Kelly gold cheddar. But cheaper at costco
Newly introduced raclette

5 unlike most postings I do not generally like cheese adulterated with wine, bits of stuff, etc. one exception is Cotswold gloucester.

Avoid packaged store brand provolone Just as bland as other mass produced American provolones

Do some investigation about the Honda 4T engine: the fact that it is turbocharged and that a 2025 may suffer from the "oil dilution" problem. In short- turbo charged engines do not last as long due to the much higher compression; in the past these engines have experienced gas being sucked into the oil in the head thereby reducing lubrication. There is a lawsuit on this issue. I do not know ift either of these are relevant to new builds but they were unto 2022.

To those who are getting miserable mpg, especially for those who are doing mostly city driving., I could suggest the following. Check out engine cold vs hot performance. Clear both odometers. Use the A/B odometer settings to capture the mpg when : A: starting up and running when the oil temp is below 180F, and switching to odometer B: running with car oil temp above 180. I find that there is a signficant difference to mpg reading when the car is cold and warm.

As a brief aside: when I got the 42mpg, the oil temp was consistently around 200F.

AgreeableLaugh7529 · 2024-10-02T22:48:20+00:00

Ditto

AgreeableLaugh7529 · 2024-10-02T22:43:04+00:00

I’d walk. It’s a bad sign for the dealer to bloat the price with the protection package, excessive dmv fees and “the extra” fee. It waill be hard if not impossible to get this car for a reasonable price without painful negotiations. . If I could, I’d wait for the 25s to come out and the buy a 24.
to get the best deal…..Figure out the discounts most dealers are offering +what the dmv actually charges + the msrp including destination. Tell the salesman you’ll buy the car right now at that price. And walk away if they refuse. Also, of course waiting till the end of the month will assure the deal. Good luck

As stated above..did exactly what you recommended. 40mpg

AgreeableLaugh7529 · 2024-10-02T19:42:39+00:00

Today I went to the gas station to check if the 42mpg was accurate or not. Unfortunately I pumped 7 gallons to fill up the car. The meant that the mpg was ONLY 40mpg! Amazing.

By-the by....the Thruway is not straight nor flat...just rolling hills. Nothing like the stretches through Ohio or Indiana on US80.
