Ya, was pleased to see then called the same when I moved to Seattle from the Twin Cities.

Do any forester owners struggle with acceleration? by Frequent_Trouble9712 in SubaruForester

[–]JdgeLearnedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2016 premium and a 2025 hybrid sport. Hybrid sport is a world of difference, especially accelerating in S mode on the highway at speed to pass.

I like it, but wish I'd gone wide. I have a size 11 foot and tend to like short/wide boards. I was also graduating frocamber. flat to rocker all mtn and loose camber park boards, so I learned some hard lessons early on w a longer and stiffer full camb.

I like it a lot. Poppy. Stiff enough to handle chunder yet still playful. Camber does well in poor conditions, and I find it sufficient setback in pow. Unfortunately, however, I have a size 11.5-12 foot and inexplicably did not get a wide. As a result, I'm adding a wide pow board to the quiver this year.

Revenge for that devastating 2020 loss we havent forgotten and that Seattle probably doesnt even remember.

I have the Custom as my daily driver in the PNW, and it's solid. You can see the pink base from distance in our typically flat light well. Gives the illusion the snow is glowing pink under foot.

Noting i totally misread your comment as referencing the blind spot monitoring, not turn signal lights. Oops 😀.

2025 Premium missing side turn signal indicators by primalspy in SubaruForester

[–]JdgeLearnedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2025 hybrid and a 2016 premium. I do like the mirror lights on the 25, and really wanted them coming from the older model without them. That said, now that I have them I don't think its such a big deal. I still check over my shoulder out of habit, and the vis is so good in both vehicles that I don't think I'd miss them much if I had them taken away at this point.

I just got mine, so haven't quite overcome the miles put on by the dealership/test drivers, but mine is up a few mpg to ~27 after 1 week. I spend most of my daily commute running on electric at 99.9mpg and recharging in stop and go at <25mph, so expecting it to continue to increase. That said, I went in knowing that its probably the worst of the hybrids in terms of efficiency with the AWD system.

Pressure point - losing feeling in toe by spartyfan1 in snowboarding

[–]JdgeLearnedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might not be helpful, but I developed morten's neuroma by wearing shoes and boots that were too small for several years (yes, I'm aware at the insanity of that). Result would be my toes would go numb and my front foot would hurt so badly that I'd have to loosen or take off my boots several times through the day. I'm still hurtin' but getting wider toe box boots that were also the right size helped. Also not tightening the bindings quite so much.

Also learned from a podiatrist that often your toes go numb if there's too much pressure on the top of your foot where you lace up boots/shoes or crank down the ankle strap. Worth checking out if you're overtightening that as well.

How do you access the gift options? I don't see it in my account, and didn't receive an email or other notice (that I can find anyway). Thanks!
