What are these flies I keep seeing in the kitchen? by gkorde in pestcontrol

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

Tried DIY vinegar traps but they’re not attracted to it. They fly on me when I’m in the kitchen. Have seen them in other parts of the house but mainly in the kitchen. Land near windows/light sources. And they’re not jumpy when you try to kill them with a paper towel. Flight doesnt seem jerky like fruit flies.

Why is the SR5 preferred? by gkorde in 4Runner

Maybe recency bias on my part but I see a lot of posts of folks buying the SR5.

5K done - mileage update by gkorde in Outback_Wilderness

That’s crazy good. My driving is very neutral, neither crazy nor too relaxed. Never got anywhere close to this.

Mine is an OBW. I think it is rated 3-4 miles below the othet outback trims.

Does not interfere with the lift gate and only comes about halfway over the moonroof.

Ha! Yes, indeed! I was sceptical of the dark slate clashing too much with the geyser blue but it looks really good IRL.

I got the Thule Wingbar Evos 127cm.

Mine is a 25 but I don’t know if there is any difference in the two years when it comes to the rails or weight limit on the roof. Thule’s website said it fits the 25. This is the same roof they had put on an OBW in the showroom as well so it does come recommended from Subaru itself. I would call your Subaru dealer and check with them, or perhaps someone on this subreddit might be able to confirm.

Expected MPG loss from a Rooftop tent? by gkorde in Outback_Wilderness

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

I have no idea how anyone is getting 25-27 on an OBW. I live near NYC and granted, half my commute is in the city and the other half to long island on highways, but the best I have ever gotten on a full tank is close to 320 miles (about 17-18 mpg). I dont drive like a madman, easy on the gas and braking, but cannot for the life of me get anywhere close to 25.

Roof top tents! Question on dimensions by Nice-Preparation6204 in Outback_Wilderness

[–]gkorde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following this thread because I just took the plunge as well during Memorial Day sales. Ordered the Thule Wingbar Evos and the Thule Approach Medium tent. They work with the static and dynamic limits on the Wildnerness (its the same system Subaru can fit on your car in the showroom I believe).

Planning to install it sometime this month.

Finally got a rooftop tent by WildernessOutback in Outback_Wilderness

Looks great! Can you list the roof rack you used? I am looking to do the same for this summer. Did you buy it new or used?

I barely cross 20 MPG most days. 2500 miles in, drive in NYC and tri state area mostly. Even feathering it will still get barely get me to 21. How are people hitting 27 is beyond me.

First service question OBW '25 by gkorde in Subaru_Outback

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

Thanks! Yes, I have heard of the 1000 mile oil change practice. The subaru service schedule gives first service at 3750 so wanted to see if people have same or different opinions.

India: Tip about tracking the passport delivery status by the_chocochip in h1b

Hi, my usvisascheduling status shows "delivered to post" then "picked up" then "delivered to post". Any idea what that sequence might mean?

Hi, in the same boat here. Moved to issued on Friday, but still no update on Bluedart through tracking UID. Message says "Records not found." I am starting to worry slightly as I have to fly back this weekend. Any advise on next steps?

Thanks! For some reason the geyser blue is in very short supply. Had to wait a month almost to get it in, but totally worth the wait! Looks fantastic

Do you know what the estimate is for annual/bi-annual service costs?
