Date: September 15th, 2020 9:41 AM Author: Confused electric furnace fraudlies. subaru 100% lies about the mpg. any newer wrx owner will tell you the computer in the car reporting the mpg on the infotainment screen is way higher than if you calculate it yourself.

Date: September 15th, 2020 9:56 AM Author: medicated hell preventive strike A bigger engine works with gearing to turn lower rpms at highway speeds, generally is a more efficient operating range. At highway speeds drag coefficient and rolling resistance are more important than weight in determining MPG. hth (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3897659&forum_id=2#40922488) |

Date: September 15th, 2020 9:57 AM Author: soggy mexican liquid oxygen I've been a subarumo (nolesbian), but I'm thinking of switching to a Ford Explorer or Toyota Highlander. Talk me out of it. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3897659&forum_id=2#40922495) |

Date: September 15th, 2020 9:59 AM Author: Confused electric furnace which subaru? if it's just between those 2 i'd go for a highlander. The Explorer looks more like a truck but is every bit the crossover that the highlander is just not as good. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3897659&forum_id=2#40922505) |

Date: September 15th, 2020 1:32 PM Author: soggy mexican liquid oxygen I've had a Forrester. Explorer is definitely more of a truck than the Forrester. My concern with Fords is that they are not as reliable as jap cars. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3897659&forum_id=2#40923672) |

Date: September 15th, 2020 1:37 PM Author: Confused electric furnace Explorer is boxy like a truck but is a unibody just like a sedan or crossover. That's why I say you don't get any extra capabilities with an Explorer and less reliability than a toyota or subaru.
If you want a truck style SUV, go with a 4runner. |

Date: September 15th, 2020 1:34 PM Author: soggy mexican liquid oxygen Good idea. I've never been all that impressed by Lexus but it will be reliable and have more amenities than a bare bones Subaru. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3897659&forum_id=2#40923683) |

Date: September 16th, 2020 9:51 AM Author: medicated hell preventive strike They're completely fine cars for a long term, durable appliance. My wife keeps her car for 10+years/100k+ miles so we specifically didn't want a hybrid, anything turbo charged, etc. and the 3.5L V6 riding on essentially a Camry platform is about as solid as it gets.
When I need a change from my loud, intense car driving her Lexus is nice place to be. It's comfortable, quiet, moves well enough in traffic. I don't think we really needed that super tiny 3rd row, but Lexus must have had a hard time moving them because they had more incentives on it and despite a higher MSRP sold for less than the non-L RX. It's come in handy about 3x so far when we had bigger groups that needed to go in one car for a short trip. |

Date: September 16th, 2020 9:37 AM Author: soggy mexican liquid oxygen I've thought about the outback but prefer the Forrester for more interior room. I don't know anything about the ascent except that it blurs the line between the other two and I don't understand why one is better than the other. Do any of these have updated shit inside? My Forrester has a few dials and a stereo that sounds deliberately muffled. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3897659&forum_id=2#40928327) |

Date: September 16th, 2020 10:40 PM Author: Confused electric furnace i have a 2016 outback. i thought it was roomier than the forrester but maybe im wrong on this. the ascent it just a bigger outback.
agree 100% re: the stereo. it seems like they actually tried to make it sound like shit. |
