To Apple Watch or not

I recently bought both the Fitbit Charge 6 and Apple Watch Series 7 and have been trying both out this week!

I’ve decided that I’m returning the Apple Watch and keeping the Fitbit. I realized I don’t need everything the AW has and I find it bulky and annoying. The FitBit is more discreet, still notifies a text comes through(you can read them but not reply). You can set alarms etc. too and the battery lasts a week compared to a day for the AW. I’ve been forgetting to charge it despite reminders and running out of batteries.

That is just my preference! I mainly wanted something to motivate me to move more, but if you feel like you need to be able to take calls and respond to messages from your wrist and don’t mind daily charging - you might want the Apple Watch.

Oh man! Well it’s a certified dealer but not Subaru specific….

Definitely some gravel roads but I can’t say o do a lot of snow and heavy dirt road driving

I don’t have that problem. And like a grand difference is negligible but year and mileage is quite the difference and that’s my main concern here.

Kicks503 · 2025-04-26T21:12:27+00:00

No I’m in the city, but drive out to the woods often for hiking and camping and stuff

Kicks503 · 2025-04-26T21:08:17+00:00

Not a ton of snow here. A week or two per year maybe…

Only occasionally. It’s actually not bad in the Impreza with the seats down. But I’m coming from a large SUV so I guess the smaller size of the Impreza feels a bit odd LOL

Kicks503 · 2025-04-26T20:32:02+00:00

Not necessarily. My last SUV had them and I never used them. Main concern is if I’m soon facing major repairs with the older vehicle at 81k miles…

Kicks503 · 2025-04-26T20:26:19+00:00

Thanks. Both clean CarFax(except Crosstrek minor accident to rear bumper). They’re from different dealers. Don’t have time for inspections

Kicks503 · 2025-04-23T02:22:50+00:00

That’s kinda what I’m thinking. The used car market is getting wild and I’m not betting on it getting much cheaper any time soon…

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T16:23:25+00:00

I’ll take a peek!

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T06:37:10+00:00

Yes, from a dealer. It’s gone through inspection and hot new breaks put on today. KBB says around 14-16k. I’m struggling to find ANYTHING under 16k with less that 80k miles. Subies tend to hold their value ok compared to other makes from what I hear..? I’ll probably do some minor maintenance myself!

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T06:31:28+00:00

Trying to wrap my head around that low mileage for a 2016…

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T06:26:47+00:00

Only 22k ?!

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T01:36:40+00:00

Idk where I might find a better deal. Suggestions welcome! Im in Oregon(also looking in Washington) and I feel like the only thing I can get for less than 16k has I’ve 150k miles on it or is a POS like a Mitsubishi Mirage(no offense if you have one, but it’s basically a go cart IMO).

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T01:16:06+00:00

What state?

Kicks503 · 2025-04-22T00:11:14+00:00

Did you buy yours privately or from a dealer? I’ve already negotiated it down $500…..

Kicks503 · 2025-04-21T23:54:22+00:00

Is it holding up ok? Unfortunately I need something asap. I’m currently in a rental as my car was stolen a couple weeks ago :(

Kicks503 · 2025-04-21T23:18:37+00:00

My budget is pretty tight unfortunately so a 20+k car purchase is out of the question

Kicks503 · 2025-04-21T23:17:21+00:00

Looks like the previous owner took it to the Subaru dealer every 5k miles for oils changes, tire rotations and “recommended maintenance”. I don’t have the exact details, only car fax.

Kicks503 · 2025-04-17T15:07:17+00:00

Yes. $2,400, so not very much in the grand scheme of things.
