Subaru XT-6 auto leveling pneumatic suspension, as others stated brilliant when it works not drivable if it doesn’t work. The ride height lowers at highway speeds and no mater how much weight is in the car it maintains it’s ride height. Fun thing to do is to fill the car with people drive it around then turn it off…

Go places.

Dude, you have been hitting the crack pretty hard lately. This wasn’t a $2,000 car in 1995.

Toyota owns 16.5% of Subaru hence the BRZ, and I offhand blame them for de-tuning the impreza and making it ugly-which is probably subaru’s fault.

I would buy if I could find one. Carmax doesn’t even have any in this configuration.

My mom has a 2010 impreza and it handles like shit compared to our old 2002 impreza. The 2002 Impreza had a really great balance between spring rates and roll stiffness that gave it a relatively good ride but bit well in the corners and took bumps really really well. Her car just wheel hops over bumps and has tons of…

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think the Mazda 3, Ford Focus and Volvo V40 share the same platform. My Mazda 3 has a FOMOCO dip stick.

I currently, have a Mazda 3 and it is hands down a clear victor in this category. However I also had the 2002 Subaru Impreza exactly like the one in this photo and it was a dirt road demon, just not as good at changing direction as the mazda.

Now I know where I learned how to dance.

My dad got a ticket for “Exhibition of speed” (Missoula County Montana) from dragging against a Chevy Beretta. It wasn’t a proud day in our house.

Google said that’s a Baphomet painted on the hood.

Autonation sent us a brand new Ford Explorer with a defective drivers side air bag-the air bag light was on! Our local Ford dealer fixed it under warranty while uttering multiple WTF’s. At least VW can’t actually see the issue with their own eyes.

I do, 2006 mazda 3, we still take the ‘13 Outback to the dealer while it is under warranty. I don’t want my hands dirty if the car turns out to have a bad engine (so far so good, fingers crossed).

I’m rolling through Kansas in a national rental car supplied 2015 Toyota RAV4 and I LOVE IT.

Any guesses what they paid for this car before repairs? $50k maybe?

We were really strict for the first 6 months and then all the activities started where there isn’t a pit stop between school and soccer or skiing so the kids are having to do their snacking in the car. You don’t want a hungry kid on cross country skis 2 miles from the car. However I am doing good on my no-food policy…

My kids have destroyed the back seat of our otherwise very nice Outback. There is food crammed into every nook and cranny and they have literally kicked the upholstery off of the undersides of the front seats so there is sad little carpet stuff hanging down. I have taped it back up with black duct-tape to match. Once…

It’s too bad, Ontario is a nice airport for those of us traveling to the Inland Empire.

LAX also operates ONT and they are slowly killing ONT for no apparent reason. I love Ontario but it’s getting really hard to find direct flights from SEA or SLC.

I fly on the west coast all the time and feel spoiled. My LaGuardia experience feels like we were crammed into a shoe box of smelly people only to wait in line for everything. Our flight to Manchester NH was maybe 35 minutes air time but they list it at 1.5 hrs because of the amount of time you spend on the runway…
