Hello,
Well, took a test drive on a 2013 Outback.
Really like it a lot.
But -
With the base engine, the car didn't seem to have "enough" oomph to merge onto highway traffic all that well.
Anyone else notice this ?
Are there some techniques to use to get the initial merging speed up ?
Different gear setting, or...?
I remember years ago, don't know if they still have this, many cars would
drop down a gear or so if you held you foot all the way down on the gas when merging or passing.
Outback have anything like this ?
(if so, probably should have tried it, but didn't)
Thoughts would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
