New member from Phoenix. Traded the Legacy in for a '12 Ltd. Outback. We love it. The symmetrical AWD will be handy with all the snow and ice we get in Phoenix. The family has a WRX and an Forester XT as well. I won't have any snow tire questions. Thanks...:D

It still won't get you through the flooded washes with all wheel drive,especially when they are barricaded....:D The 4 wheel will really help when you get to go to the mountains up in our country. It was really hot down there this year!!!!!

Thanks. The AWD does plow through the flooded curb sides. The car doesn't jerk to the side like a front wheel drive sedan. I think it rained twice this year. I think the Subie gets excited when anything resembling bad weather happens in this city. :headshake

  1. Yet another new Subaru Owner

    New Member/User? Look Here!
    Greetings! I have been looking at Outbacks since the late 90s, but I never actually got serious about it until now. My current car, a 2004 Volvo V70 with 370,000 km, while still being in good mechanical shape, is starting to rust and has minor, but annoying issues to fix that will cost more...

    Just saying HELLO from the Christmas City of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. I've always loved Subaru's, but never owned one until my son bought a newer Outback, and sold me his 2006 Imprezza Subaru Sport. Mike Foxx

  5. Am I foolish for considering a 2020 Outback?

    New Member/User? Look Here!
    I currently have a 2014 Audi Q5 TDI - the diesel is fun to drive, great fuel economy. The car is premium though some of the technology is a bit outdated. I've taken it off paved roads, up some forest service roads, but nothing TOO extreme mainly due to concerns of bottoming out. The outback...
