Interesting comment, our crosstrek is nearing 100k miles, doesn't use oil or other issues mentioned. Haters gonna hate, hate, hate.

Lol. I'm not sure that quoting Taylor Swift is the most effective way to fight the Subaru stereotype.

My 2 neighbors had head gasket problems with all their subes.

Haha, this vehicle has hauled deer, upland game and carried all ice fishing gear. Maybe we should start stereotyping the all mighty F250 King Ranch.

Do a search for unconscious bias and think about it.

Close neighbor has one, bought it used. He is constantly having it in the garage fixing something it seems. He likes it, but has put lots of $$$ into it since I have known him.

Subarus have been going down hill for years. The late 80’s were better than the 90’s. The 90s better than the 2000s. The older boxers all had a little piston skirt slap noise when cold staring but didn’t blow up very often. Early 2000s started having head gasket issues. Later 2000s head gasket and transmission trouble. It’s a shame, but seems like all car manufacturers have followed the same trend of getting worse rather than better.

Talk when it has 250,000+. Hyundai Tucson has 240,000 and going strong.

The majority of those occupying the driver's seat of one around here appear to fit the description of the bumper sticker on the one in the OP

Running joke with some buddies is Lesbaru

Had one guy we know take his wife's for an oil change or tires or something
He said some someone that fit the profile pulled up beside him at a light and whipped around to check the driver out and got a look of disgust when she found him looking back. We still have a good laugh about that

Unconscious bias.

My '17 outback has almost 183k miles on it
With decent winter tires it has gone over roads I had to put my ' 10 f150 fx4 in 4wd to go on.
30 mpg and other than a wheel hub last year it only gets oil changes

Technically we are consciously bias. We are aware of their shortcomings and that is why we don't like them.

Exactly, and because everyone is aware that the company has intentionally and successfully marketed to a certain demographic, associating that vehicle with that demographic is also a conscious bias.
That does not mean that every owner/driver fits that demographic.

So.... all you men saying you're not lesbians...... does that mean you prefer men?

Yep

Maybe not of them but I'm sure that's what Trapset means. lol

I don't even know how you all get the dog hair out of them. It'd take a week just to scrape all the Biden and gay pride stickers off them.

Lol. I had to scrape the pot leaf and the Al Gore sticker off mine when I bought it. I had forgotten about that.

I happen to be a proud lesbian.

No they would be men. Men are attracted to women. Those with biological or mental defects prefer the same sex and are who Subaru has marketed to over the years.

Only reason im not interested in them a lot is all the problems a family friend had with his. Other than that I think they would be great for my daughter or even the boys. But all wheel or 4 wheel drive with room for 5 or her dog would be nice for my daughter. Nurses are expected to be at the hospital regardless of the weather. And im not always home to take her when its bad out.

So the opposite of ADC.

Trapdog, are you saying that ADC is an embarrassed lesbian?
