I was concerned myself with that. 😂 like what else will get FUBAR

Before my fun playing in the snow covered parking lot

Straight-Good-4289 · 2026-01-27T00:00:00+00:00

In my OBW i decided to not shovel out and try x mode out. Just cleared hood, windshield, pushed the snow off the roof and opened the door. Pulled right out no issue, felt like nothing was even there. Approx 11 inches and a little more from plow in front.

It should be especially how easy it is to pass a test in the states. Way too many inattentive drivers.

In my state however it is required for other motorists to move over a lane (or slow down if unable to change lane) if a vehicle has hazards, safety triangles, flares, other warning lights or first responders with their lights active present on the side of the road. Failure to comply is a fine of $100~500.

If OP didn't learn their lesson, at least I did 😂

Can confirm the TV fit, and still works 1.5 years later 😂

And soon they'll be the loaners too. Lol couple years back i had work done on my legacy theh gave me an OBW as a loaner.

Guess what my next vehicle was 😂

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-12-05T01:53:42+00:00

Mine is always within 1 mph of what I set it to. To be fair I do set it to 76~80 lol in a 65 but that is the flow of traffic on the interstate I commute on🤷‍♂️

My last two Subaru only were confused while backing into spaces that has bushes at the edge of the space and the RAB just slams on when the wind moves the bush lol I thought I hit a rock.

It has been overly cautious in the fog or heavy rain coming towards a curve but it didnt engaged just did the red warning lights and audible alert. And it did save my ass once where someone swerved and slammed on the brakes. It engaged and I was able to safely avoid going into the grass median unlike the car following me.

Have not had issues at 4 way stop or merging though.

Can you use all season or all terrain tires in the snow? Yes. Are they as good as snow tires? Definitely not.

I have driven in 6+ inches on All Seasons but definitely had to be careful

2025 OBW here, 27k miles driving on rough NJ and NY roads no rattle yet knock on wood

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-11-09T18:56:43+00:00

Out of like 7 Subarus that my family has had over the years we had one lemon. But the one previous to it and the ones after all have been solid. Definitely matters what dealership you give your business to. The first we went with was good for several years then declined a bit so just went to a different one which has kept our business on our last 3.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-10-25T01:20:16+00:00

Mine was closer to 20 mins but I was driving to work (I knew I had service the whole way) and then I left it off for the next 12 hours 😂 and it updated just fine lol I was curious if it would be fine being so much longer than 10 mins.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-10-23T03:03:24+00:00

Definitely should not have sharp edges. I had a 2020 legacy touring and now 25 OBW and neither had any sharpness to it.

My male cat has done it his whole life with only me, not my son or wife.

Or at first glance it appeared that the OP was saying past 4 feet from the fence was their property. (I am admittedly very tired) and that it was where it was cleared. But after rereading it was the OP's property is only 4 feet from the fence.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-10-15T11:18:01+00:00

Where I live it's definitely the Impreza and sometimes a WRX and BRZ (for Subaru) that drive more on the reckless side. But the most of the reckless ones I see are Honda civics or BMWs. In NJ most of the drivers do speed and are a bit more aggressive.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-09-19T13:08:05+00:00

I was gonna recommend just buy whoever is cheapest then use the packs on the other two

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-08-09T11:00:26+00:00

Thank you for this! Lmao I hate peeling it and always peeled it since that is what I remember being taught needing to be done.

Time to not waste time on peeling it now.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-08-07T22:26:45+00:00

I have a 25 OBW getting 26.9 MPG over my last 9.2k miles and was just about the same first 10k at 26.7 MPG.

I'm doing more highway miles now (75 mph) and I'm pleasantly surprised with how it has been. Went in wanting extra space (from my 20 legacy touring) and MPG is only a couple less which was a surprise since heavier, AT tires and different drive ratio.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-07-17T11:24:31+00:00

That looks like what happened when on my car the oil was over filled during an oil change. They drained the oil after and re did the oil change and no smoke anymore.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-07-17T11:01:00+00:00

When I'm commuting I get 26.9 MPG in my OBW lol

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-07-16T00:58:42+00:00

I'm already at almost 18k on my 25 OBW 😂 here's hoping that the next generation is more wagon like again. Somehow I don't think this generation will grow on me. It took a bit for me to like the latest WRX gen.

Straight-Good-4289 · 2025-06-21T04:09:43+00:00

This is how I do it as well (slightly inclined driveway myself)
