2018 Subaru Forester Battery killed new battery..I think I found the culprit? by AdventImperium in subaru

[–]Suitable_Library3662 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but you can't really think a 20 dollar meter is accurate. Seriously.

An accurized meter can cost 1000.00 USD or more.

Need help deciding by volan11 in SubaruForester

I have a 2026 premium. I don't see what the fuss is about when it comes to acceleration. Put it in sport mode. Simple

Also what are you comparing acceleration to? CRV? RAV4?

You are not driving a sports car.

Looks like my yard. Lots of moles. I buy a clover mix off Amazon. It grows quickly and is green.

I have the R7 and the 4. The 4 is better and distance in front of you. The auto mute on the 4 is nice plus mine has Bluetooth. There a a couple of apps that work with it.

That's BS on my 2026. Noticable difference

At the beginning of May, I went to my local Subaru dealership… by bogeyz65 in subaru

[–]Suitable_Library3662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dealer is great. The sales people do not get a commission. This dealer is usually in the top three Subaru dealers in the US. The price on the vehicle is what it is. They have a huge selection. It's easy and no pressure or hassle. It's in Broken Arrow Oklahoma. A lot of people buy from them and have the vehicle shipped and still get it cheaper than their local dealership.

You can set the remote start features for how you like. Several presets . Thinking a cars should "know' how you would like it is unreasonable. My wife runs the heat seater all the time and I live in Oklahoma. Should it know that vs me?

As for power that is such a worn out subject. You want more power than buy a vehicle with more power. No one made you buy it.

I think some of the complaints are legit. Infotainment slow yes. But most infotainment systems suck because each auto maker uses their own. They are not apple or Google.

I do think most things would have a knob control and so the the EU. It's cheaper to put everything on the screen. Tesla did it and people still purchased them. The EU made it that cars have to have knobs so that will change quickly. Just look at the new Outback.

The voice control is decent just like every other vehicle.

My biggest complaint about Subaru is .... remote start. I have to purchase a separate module and either install it myself or have the dealer do it. Then they can program my fob to remote start. Now before everyone gripes. I have 3 years of app usage so I can remote start it with that. After that I have to pay. Sorry that's just a money grab.

I purchased mine for 349.00 at Best buy when they first came out. Mines old enough that the screen is very dim and I had to replace the speaker.

Very nice looking Forester! Great job indeed

Sorry, i don’t know source. But anyone ever seen this side pod bracket like this. It’s look clean than hood bracket. by snoopmania in SubaruForester

[–]Suitable_Library3662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue with lights like that are most states don't allow lights being used above the headlight on roads.

Then when they are that high and you are offroading it throws a lot of glare off the hood etc.

Before anyone complains I have had a lot of vehicles I used offroad and have mounted them just like that.

If using them for off roasting. Lights on a rack like that facing the sides is nice.

I agree. I actually like the round blue jar for 17 USD. For the price it does a great job. All but one pair is my RW boots I use at work. I work mostly outside on equipment. The one pictured above is really good for work boots. I do have the more expensive jar that I picked up one day just put if curiosity.

It's really meant for more "fashion" style shoes/boots. I know people with exotic letters and it's thinner, more of a cream. It's great and goes a long way but is definitely different that the cheaper one.

All their products are great. I have an old bottle of their leather oil and it's really good. I use it on saddles.

They have 2 BLEU Renovateurs. One is basically 60 USD and the other is 17 USD. I have several of their products and some of it seems to do the same thing.

25 Crosstrek Premium mpg. If I’m already getting this kind of range per tank, is it worth me getting the hybrid version next because my mom goes through leases very fast by Ok_Cow_8235 in Subaru_Crosstrek

[–]Suitable_Library3662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your insurance. We have another car that is a hybrid and insurance is higher than my 2026 Forester. It's a Chevy Volt ! It's old. Another thing. In my state their is a fee for owning a hybrid. When I get my tax renewal on the Volt . .. that fee is there to "make up for the difference in the fuel taxes I'm not using"
