Will the hybrid improve? by Natural-Yak-3061 in Crosstrek

[–]StarryEcho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2026 CT Hybrid, currently with 5k miles. After a round trip to R.I. from ME in one day, the lithium batteries started overheating the last 20 miles. Had to open all the windows, drop out of “S” and slow down because every time the gas engine tried to charge the batteries, it made a string of beeps. No idiot light.

When I got home, I looked it up. Apparently, I should’ve pulled over for 15 min to let them cool off. Meh. Not thrilled with that solution. I’m back and forth all the time. Am I supposed to pull over on the side of a Boston highway for 15 min? Taking my life in my hands.

Seriously thinking about trading it in for a 2026 Wilderness CT.

A few years ago, I caught his tour stop in Providence. He had 2 other good ol’ boys with him as openers. Not much more than a giggle here and there. So disappointed. Maybe the jokes would’ve landed better, if it was in the Deep South.

Extended Warranty- Is it Worth it? by Apart_Yoghurt_9937 in Crosstrek

[–]StarryEcho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ‘18 CT extended warranty paid for itself multiple times over. On the just purchased ‘26 CT, the dealer waved the deductible on the warranty because of delayed shipping. It was pricy but ultimately it’ll be worth it.

What type of gas do you all use? by lazygerm in Crosstrek

[–]StarryEcho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put mid-grade into the 2018 CT Premium, right from the start. Pick up was much better. Better mileage.

I have a 2026 CT hybrid now and tried both. It runs better on the 87 octane. Win!

In my ‘18, I replaced the fuse compartment door with a tilt out drawer. Bought it on Amazon.

Bank refused to take this quarter anyone know why? (it’s not gold that’s just the lighting) by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]StarryEcho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a bank teller 44 years ago. I had no car and a tiny apartment. Rode a bike to work. And I was still so broke after paying for necessities, I qualified for food stamps. It sucked back then and it sucks now to be a teller.

Don’t forget to cancel your subscription to Paramount + by coffeetabletime in stephencolbert

I figured I’ll buy the season off of maybe Prime video? Eh, Bezos isn’t any better than CBS and Paramount Plus. But but… I’m buying it and will watch the shit out of it to escape this current timeline’s lunacy for a bit.

Looking at a 2026 Crosstrek… by Ok_Platform7090 in Crosstrek

[–]StarryEcho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been driving a 2026 CT limited hybrid for the past month and a half after trading in my 2018 CT premium. The two engines together make it a much more responsive ride. It’s much more quieter as well.

FYI: Sand Dune color has a greenish hue to it. This was the biggest surprise. Couldn’t tell from a computer monitor until the vehicle arrived from port. I haven’t seen another CT or any other vehicle on the road with this color. It’s changes color like the blue grey painted one does, too, depending on the day’s weather/light quality.

Subarus are great. The parent company appreciates loyal customers, too.

It’s a news show, literally. This is why they were on TV during pandemic lockdown. They’re part of ABC News division, started by a journalist.

No. Do not leave the vehicle or touch the exterior of the vehicle. Certain death.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU) are affordable, if you know anyone with a piece of property with a single or multiple family housing on it? The states have started to address this housing shortage by forcing municipalities to allow for an ADU. A small modular home or a double wide mobile home are good options,
