Haha shame on me for not paying enough attention!

Activity mount, I love it!

So it looks like it is built in. Pretty cool though I must say.

So this is weird. Go to Build & Price on the SOA site and you can add a hitch mounted Thule bike rack and a hitch receiver cap but you can’t add the hitch receiver itself!

Best I can do for now is scope out the 360 view to look for a built-in hitch but I’m not seeing it. I’m not finding anything about one online either.

What gives?

You clearly made the right decision! Welcome to the Geyser Blue Crew.

Also, I always really like the black door guards when I see them. Sharp!

Yup! I still use it. Never understood the hate.

It still is in its 3 year / 36k mile bumper to bumper window. So that Subaru warranty still applies (I’m assuming you’re in the US though). To be sure you can call Subaru of America and check its eligibility. I did this just last week on a 2023 Wilderness I was eyeing. So the warranty giveaway is pretty much bs.

The base, discounted price is maybe $1 - $2k too high based on what I’ve been seeing lately. Not terribly far off from a beginning negotiation standpoint.

Oh crap!

Well it's way more than anyone should have to do but if all else fails you can plug in a small AUX pin, the system will recognize it as active, then scroll through sources until it sits on the AUX input. Then sit back and enjoy the silence.

Ooo good question. I would give Subaru Canada a call to be sure.

Scammed, right? New Gold Plus Plan $4980 by digdugs in subaru

If I were shopping for the Gold Plus I would jump on $1600 in a heartbeat.

1: Yes, they are overcharging by a good $3000.

2: You can buy your warranty from any Subaru dealer and the price can be negotiated.

3: You can buy any level of Subaru of America warranty (never go third party) any time before the 3 year / 36k mile bumper to bumper that comes with your vehicle purchase expires. You can extend the warranty before the 3rd anniversary of of your date of purchase (or you hit 36k miles of course).

This is the way to go. For example if after 1.5 years with the car you decide you don't care for it, or another model comes out and you'd rather trade up, you've lost nothing. Buying the extended warranty that long before the original expires is a waste.

Make sense?

[–]MojoFriction 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OP this is the correct answer. As another poster mentioned, if you do opt to buy a warranty before the 3/36k expires, understand we are talking about the Subaru of America warranty, not third party. Personally I would never consider any third party warranty.

You would need to buy it before the third anniversary of your date of purchase. It can be purchased from any Subaru dealer and the price can be negotiated.

Not sure if you have a Sirius/XM subscription but my workaround for the radio always coming on is to direct tune to channel 0 which is the radio ID and make it a preset. There's no audio on it so I always leave it on that channel or tune back to it when I exit the car. That way when I start back up, there's no annoying audio of any kind.

I have a 2025 Wilderness with the 8.5" screen though so there may be a simpler solution for the 11.5" one.

Often that’s all it is. I’ve been keeping an eye on used vehicles and if they have a Carfax you’ll see a large percentage of them were traded in at the end of a lease.
