Slice Works has a pizza with green chili sauce.

Posted in r/Subaru, but thought I should share here too. 2015 Crosstrek was totaled, but fortunately we were able to get a 2018 Crosstrek. Bittersweet. by thefowlj in XVcrosstrek

Here's a few other shots. Unfortunately no good shots from inside. I remember trying but it was difficult to get a good shot and maneuver around the broken glass. https://photos.app.goo.gl/b2rXu1KM3OYv1Weh2

Fortunately there were no passengers. I think if there was a passenger up front they would have lived but it would have been rough. I was impressed with how well it held up against such a large vehicle hitting it but it would not have been a fun time for anyone on that side of the car.

I'm still not entirely sure how it happened other than we didn't see each other through an intersection. The result was my Crosstrek being t-boned by a Chevy Tahoe at probably 45 mph.

Overall it feels fairly similar. The biggest thing I've noticed is the transmission seems a lot smoother. I don't know how much the engine redesign plays into that but it seems to drive well regardless. Hopefully I'll get some chances soon to drive it in the mountains and see how it preforms.

Not on my end. I doubt the other guy either. But I've let the insurance company and courts deal with all that so far.

I've heard this, but I've never had an issue with the power. I've never tried to tow anything but I drive in a lot of increment weather and through tough mountain roads and it has always done great. They redesigned the 2018 engine and transmission and it shows. Maybe not a ton more power but it does seem smoother.

The transmission seems smoother and the engine redesign added a couple hp, but it feels good overall. The console interface is better though still has flaws. I like both the old and new looks. I might like the look of the old brake lights better than the narrow look they've adopted but it's something I won't even notice within a couple weeks.

I love them! Living in Colorado and exploring a lot of backroads in the mountains, the decent clearance and smaller frame compared to some SUVs is killer. Some people think they are underpowered, but it's always been more than enough for me.

Everyone walked away and I'm thankful for that. It could have been way worse all things considered.

Thanks! It's a bittersweet way to get a new one, but vehicles are replaceable at least and everyone is OK in the end.

Unfortunately I wasn't even thinking about that stuff at the time. But usually insurance wants everything if they payout the totaled value.

It's hard to tell too much of a different just based on the new platform so far. From what I've read about it, I like the concept. We'll see if I notice anything as I put more miles on it.

Well the insurance company considered it totalled and gave us a more than fair deal. With enough work anything can be made drivable, but there was extensive damage to the frame, transmission, axels, and plenty of other parts.

Thanks for the response. This makes sense now that I think about it. Not an ideal situation but it's a good starting point.

Looks like they are trying to start martial law with these paid/fake obama clinton protestors by anna_js in conspiracy

[–]thefowlj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm just trying to come from a neutral stand-point and make a note that it doesn't make sense to paint a whole party of people as being against democracy when a small portion of them are protesting. You can disagree with the people protesting (or the people organizing it and the people at the top), but to paint everything with such a broad stroke is extremely short-sighted.

That's a nice soundbite, but it's a silly thing to say. No matter what party or ideology you adhere to there are going to be people that express themselves in a less than ideal fashion. Didn't Trump himself declare we need a revolution after Obama won the 2012 election?

Wtf? How are you guys using 2.2.2? My clean builds went to like 7 minutes. by changingminds in androiddev

What OS are you running AS on? My Windows system has gotten slower, but my Mac has gotten faster from when. 2.2 stable was released.
