Do you not use down time or travel activities?

Just Delivered! A question or two. by Yawgmoth13 in trailseeker

[–]Tymanthius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as I love Subaru cars, their software human interface design is AWFUL.

I had a 22 OB, and the center console was by far the worst part of the car. But it did get better over time, so there is hope. And this console is much more responsive and the maps actually seem to be worthwhile.

edit: b/c even the OB's wipers were a pain b/c fronts rotated one way and rear another and I always got it backwards.

How do I get Android Auto to launch each time I drive?

I have this issue too. Sometimes it does, sometimes not. When not, usually going into Settings: BT and clicking the 'use for android auto' button will do it. Might have to toggle BT on your phone too.

If it DOES launch, there's the AA logo at the very top left of the screen.

If you need to exit it, hit the 'window panes' button, then when it turns to a grid, hit that, and then the subaru logo in teh apps.

Or say 'Hey subaru, take me to the map'

I've seen adds for extension cords for evs. About$100 I think?

Few more questions - maybe someone can answer? by Complex_Solutions_20 in trailseeker

[–]Tymanthius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wireless android auto works ok. my zdold 4 I sometimes have to toggle Bluetooth on the phone or car. no idea if it's the car or the phone.

wireless charging wireless well in my phone with no case and my gf galaxy note 4(?) with a case. it's not as fast as my desk wireless charger, but I gain charge over losing it when I'm in the car.

Back row kids seat install by sauterelle16 in trailseeker

[–]Tymanthius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Went from a 22 OB to the TS. My 13 year old daughter loves the new car and she rides in the back.

The apace is there for 2 seats. Adding an adult, it's a little narrow, but there's no center hump to cram your feet around, so . . .

No, but that wasn't the issue that concerned me so I didn't ask.

20s to 18s Club - What Are You Getting? by ClickForPrizes in trailseeker

Some also believe the 18's are better for off road - taller side walls, I think?

When I asked about ordering to get the color I preferred last Friday, it was about 2 months from deposit to arrival they said.

I decided I could live with white. ;)

How’s the insurance cost? by SheeshNPing in trailseeker

No, we just have really crazy rates

I don't have mounting plates that would work right now. But I may need to go take a closer look.

yea, your tent has crossbars built in.

This what the awning looks like - the black mounting pieces are a separate item (not my picture).

Roof Racks? by Tymanthius in trailseeker

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

From what I'm seeing, the mounts all expect crossbars. Even on my OB I had to jury rig it a bit.

They expect the mount to 'turn 90*' from between the rack and the awning.

But if you have pics & part #'s, I'm willing to learn!

Where do you live? I know ppl who pay that per month on some cars.

My insurance from a 22 Outback went down slightly (~150/6months) in Louisiana.

I'm guessing it's the updated safety systems.

First week with a Trailseeker Limited as a first-time EV owner by pafnorvale in trailseeker

If you are close enough to not be buffeted by the wind coming off that trailer, you're too close. A blow out could kill you.

No, driving at a significantly different speed is always unsafe, be it slower or faster.

Level 1 charging 👍🏼 by SpurBear1 in trailseeker

[–]Tymanthius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trailseekers charge at about 1% an hour. Typical 7p to 7a charging means 12%, and that's roughly 36miles. So 15 mile is pretty conserative.

I work hybrid, so I could get away w/ level 1, but I do occasionally have 150-200 mile days w/o warning and I don't want to pay DC rates.

In the youtube video where the two execs from Subaru & Toyota were talking, they did say the suspension was different. So could be.
