Wanted to share my thoughts on my first Subaru. First, I want to thank Hueberger Subaru for a great buying experience. Intended to buy from Shortline, however I sent a couple emails with additional questions and never got a response, so I moved on.
I flew from Louisville, KY to Denver CO and my sales rep picked me up at the airport at 730AM. He was on time and great to deal with throughout the process. Adam Stent is his name in case anyone wants a great deal. They were 1700 lower than other dealers in my local area. After expenses, I still netted about $1400 savings. I have family in OK so I made a trip out of it.
I kept track of mileage so I could share with you all.
Dealer filled up car before I left. All figures are hand calculated, not using computer mpg gauge
127 miles, 3.48 gal = 36.49 mpg
253 miles, 7.5 gal=33.7 mpg filled up on hill
221 miles, 7.1 gal=31.12, computer showed 33.80
254 miles, 7.5 gal=33.86, computer showed 31.9
160 miles, 4.9 gal=32.65, computer showed 31.8
376 miles, 12.1 gal=31.07 computer showed 30.1
Total miles 1391, 42.58 gal=32.66 mpg
About 200 miles of the total was city driving, rest was highway doing 65-75, avg prob 70mph
Driving experience was great. Handling and seat comfort was great. Some road noise, but on par with other cars I have drove and nothing annoying. Eyesight was great during some heavy traffic and some that was stop and go. LED headlights are best headlights I have ever seen. Auto hi beams were a nice feature on some rural Oklahoma roads I traveled.
So far my only complaint is the horn. It sucks....so puny...embarrassed to use it. LOL. Thats how great the car is...the only real complaint I can find is the horn. Most of the tech features are pretty intuitive and I easily figured them out. The tire pressure gauges was set to KPA instead of PSI for some reason. I had to dig in manual to figure out how to switch it. Other than that everything else was easy.
I hope my Outback is as dependable as my VW's and Toyota's I have owned. If it is, I have found my new brand. Hope this info helps anyone thinking about buying a Subaru.
