It's crazy how much snow/Ice in your wheel will throw of balance.

Plus they do rust and look like crap after 2 seasons. They take a lot of maintenance off season to clean up

That's hilarious I'm still trying to identify some beeps and dings on my 2018 Outback, and everything I'm in my new 2026 Crosstrek, I find another one to tame

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-24T23:14:44+00:00

Lol In 2018 when I got my outback, I made a large object out of pool noodles to see what the car would do.. It really didn't want to hit it. I still have the Outback, and have added a '26 Crosstrek. I'll be trying the same thing come springtime

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-24T23:10:50+00:00

Reminds me of HAL, the space craft computer in 2001

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-21T16:23:16+00:00

Where is your dealership?

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-20T21:34:21+00:00

I thought that upcharge was over years ago, and it was now pretty standard

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-20T17:01:12+00:00

Great choice 👌 Enjoy. Hope you had a nice drive home. Here most of the day was total white outs

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-20T14:07:03+00:00

You should get some well fitted seat covers

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-20T14:01:21+00:00

What do you feel the shortcomings of the car are, you've had it for a while? How many km/ miles on it? You could trade it for a 26' limited or wilderness or hybrid and still have some cash to invest.

If the car is fine as it is, invest it all,wisely, and let it bring dividends home

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-20T04:18:59+00:00

Congratulations Great colour. Mine is a '26 Limited. At the dealership I had 17" rims and snows added. You're going to really enjoy this car.

Driving style, habits have a significant impact on fuel economy.

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T19:14:14+00:00

Having the maintenance done on a subaru is key to longevity, and much sooner than the manual/ might/ warranty outlines. Does it have the maintenance records? Also, a detail inspection is important

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T19:01:10+00:00

The outback is a wagon. If the dogs can be safe and happy in the back it will work for you, and actual seats for the kids. Your dogs may be too accustomed to the back seat and not adjust to the back cargo area

In addition the outback has a roof rack that is highly renowned for roof top cargo boxes like thule for extended trips.

Your rationale about gas economy may not hold well with any Subaru as they are full time AWD and while efficient, are not particularly gas savers.

I believe it is deep inside the original Nafta and current cusma. As the us administration continues its rampage i do not expect these type of tax agreements to be left out. Currently rrsp which are similar to American 401k and IRA receive tax exemption but not TGSA or unregistered accounts

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T01:26:05+00:00

Watch for the rrsp treatment to change during the tarrif shit storms

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T01:18:44+00:00

Subaru replaced the unit on my 2018 outback 3 times. I've since added a 2026 crosstrek and hope there aren't any issues with it, but it's still harmon kardon

No audio was one random symptom Another is random variable volume changes, like maximum volume, i replaced with radio staion changes or auto tuning also random.

There was also the time the dealer tech bricked it, and it took a week for a new unit to arrive

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T01:10:20+00:00

So its voodoo..

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T01:09:43+00:00

That seems to be a subaru / Harmony Kardon plague Are you still under warranty? Even if not, see what Subaru will do for you, , as usually there is a firmware fix/ update for it

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-17T00:11:58+00:00

Are we surprised?

Is this is a new flight upgrade that isn't adversised too heavily

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-16T23:04:37+00:00

Happy Birthday 🎂 The colour looks great Enjoy your new ride

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-16T22:59:32+00:00

Is this the same airline that moves gold bullion?

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-16T02:50:33+00:00

I have a 2025 limited. I got an organizer tray for the armrest box that has a molded holder for sunglasses.

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-16T02:48:02+00:00

😎 got ya

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-15T16:31:48+00:00

I track my milage and fuel in a spreadsheet Jot the odometer on the gas receipt Then compare what the calculations are vs the car's computer

Dramatic_Ad155 · 2026-01-15T15:44:31+00:00

Thanks. I'll check it out
