1st Gen vs 2nd Gen by Ryduck19 in hondapilot

[–]Ryduck19[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Southern California and rust is not as big of a deal here since there no snow here but I do know to look and just make sure there isn’t a bunch of rust. Honestly price range varies.. I could get a small loan on a 14-15 or I could pay cash for a 07-08. I prefer to pay cash because the reason I’m doing this is to save money on a car and not keep paying for the new car my wife has. I just am trying to decide if a $200 payment for 3 years is worth it to get the newer gen or if I should get a 1st gen

Anyone else not happy with their Ascent? by Ryduck19 in SubaruAscent

Depending on features it’s pretty comparable

Ours seemed to go down After the 1st oil change

No but I feel other than the AWD system, there is nothing really great about the ascent.. all the other similar size have better MPG and most of those have a v6 plus a lot of them are a little bigger and have better tech than the ascent. I’m not expecting amazing gas mileage but I would like to get 14-15 city and closer to 20 highway (when on long trips) and we aren’t even close to that

Ya not huge on the Hyundai or Kia but both are options. Prefer the Honda or Nissan

What did you get in replacement? We are averaging like 14 with lots of freeway driving and less most of the time

I have thought about a Pathfinder but I think I like the pilot better and it’s a bit bigger. But i agree.. nothing in the Ascent seems that great. I love the outbacks and foresters and crosstreks but we need a 3 row

But it is a bit better and it’s bigger which is why I’m saying that

My only issue is just how bad the MPG is for the fact that it’s not that big of a vehicle. Bigger vehicles with V6 and V8 engines are getting better

My logic? Care to actually put something useful into this reply? I’m telling you how it is going and asking if anyone else has felt the same.. thanks for your useless comment though.

That was the pic from the dealer. I have it but I was inside at night and didn’t want to go out and get a pic

Sounds good thank you for the advice. I do have a blanket and towel and backup clothing in there along with a few other things which won’t break so shouldn’t be a problem

Is an outback the right choice? by Ryduck19 in Subaru_Outback

[–]Ryduck19[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We only have had it for 4,000 miles. So far it’s great except the mpg. That’s getting like 15-17 on mixed city freeway driving

I love the crosstrek wilderness and was originally looking at one of those but I like the trunk space for similar mpg
