If you’re an Amex Platinum cardholder, this is the proper list of airports to get stuck at:

Good.  Picking up where Subaru left off by discontinuing the Forester XT.

I need everyone to know that my AWD is SYMMETRICAL!

I agree.  We need people to undermine the GOP from within the government.   Frustrate and fuck them over at every possible turn.

He’s been a flunkie for 2 years.   His chance has been given.  Fuck Trump.

Robokiller has variable pricing on IOS that charges based on which device you use.  on a XS Max, it’s 70/year.  On an older device, it can be as low as 25/year.  All for the same service.

The TTV6 is rated 362BHP. But, tuning shops are saying that they’re getting closer to 400 at the wheels. You can easily tune these to Mid-400s. The V8s basically tune to AMG.

Yeah, it’s the same frame and similar body structures. I’ve driven the Diesel LC Prado in New Zealand. So f**King slow, but I loved the car.

We actually drive it “quite a bit” in the city, but that quite a bit is in sub-5 mile segments. The car is targeting to 4k miles of total driving this year. I have an e class wagon that has accrued 10k miles in the last 3 years, and a GTI that has accrued 8k miles in the last 3 years.

Man, I was comparing it to the Land Cruiser. That one gave me pause. We got a 450, which has the TTV6 and a 17-24 mpg. We just did a 400 mile weekend round trip where we got approx. 23-24mpg.  I would’ve never achieved that in a mid-2000s Subaru Outback XT/Legacy GT.

Yeah, I just bought prepaid service on my E wagon so that I don’t have to think about it. Covers the 40/50/60 service for like 1700 bucks. By the time I hit my 6 year/60k service, i might hit 30k miles, but I love the car enough to keep it.

No problems thus far. We liked the GX, but the safety features of the GLS is better. ALso, the GX was really small in the 3rd row, which we needed to fit adults. The 3rd row leg and headroom is suburban sized in the GLS. My wife said I really wanted the GX to just load up with ARB equipment and take offroading.

We also own a GTI.   What is that signaling?

Yes, we carry 6 people on a quite often basis, enough to justify the car over a Q7. 4 adults, 2 car seats.

Haha. I live next to downtown Seattle. True, we sometimes take a smaller car, a car share or public transit depending on mood,  but it’s generally a pretty manageable vehicle.

Haha. Who knows. Still a great well balanced practical car to own. 

I don’t get this last picture.   Do you have to slide forward your 2nd row if you fold down your 3rd row seats?  It seems sort of counterintuitive.

Hey, my wife drives one and we live in the middle of the city.  It’s sort of fast and it doesn’t guzzle fuel.  Plus, the price premium over a suburban wasn’t much.  It’s pretty sweet.

A family member works in the Auto industry. His buddy at major boring Japanese auto mfgr. does competitive testing.  They benchmark cars against their hybrids.  The bolt is so good that the testers all agree that it's worth personally buying

This is probably where a cutoff button would work.   Just keep the dash blaring that the curtain airbags are deactivated to prevent abuse, but enough to allow someone to use the vehicle on slow speed crawls offroad without activating the rollover sensor.
