CaliforniaKid7 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Ended up selling my truck finally, will be going to check out some Subaru Outbacks this Saturday. All fairly nice, used, but in the 80,000-120,000 mile range. Have been reading up on the timing belt changes on these cars. Defintely something I'll wanna do if I get one that hasn't had that replaced yet. Really liking these cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up getting a sweet silver 2009 Subaru Outback, black leather with nav and just under 80k miles. Only bummer is the remote key fob doesn't work I don't know if it's from a bad battery or something with the signal. Whats the best way to go about getting this fixed? A battery type store or should I take it to a dealership? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google the battery type, how to replace it, and you'll definitely find some answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this works. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmen Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'm looking to get a 2015 Subaru impreza sport limited like this except in blue. Looks decent. Practical. 35 MPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scar988 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Had to get rid of my 1994 Toyota Camry. Replaced it with a 2015 Nissan Altima this past weekend. So glad to get back into an Altima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgarrett12486 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 I have a 2011 Chevy Equinox currently, but looking to get a 3rd row SUV. I've looked through everything and nothing is really appealing to my eye currently. I really like the value of the Mitsubishi Outlander, but they're gonna do a redesign in 2019 and some of the interior on the current one looks like it's from early 2000's...

Those Chargers with the 6.4 are filthy. 475 hp (I think) in a family sedan for under 50k. If I wasn't a truck guy this would be really high on my list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been driving a suburban all week on vacation and it's pretty nice if you want something that big. The 5.3 base motor seems a little anemic with such a big vehicle, but all in all it's been a pretty nice vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking to stay between $25-35K range. Plus, that thing is a gas guzzler which I can't do with my drive. Need something that gets semi-decent gas mileage (my current gets around 27-30 MPG)... I'm probably being too picky, but I'm finding good amount of flaws with everything I look at. Frustrating... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason they're so popular. If you need a full 3 rows where people larger than a small child may need to sit, and can't afford/don't want a full size SUV, they really are a great option. You can get an Odyssey that'll get 20+ mpg, seat 6 COMFORTABLY, and you will be able to get a very well equipped model under 35k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heimdallr Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I'm looking at 2017 Honda CR-Vs. From my research they have better specs than a Rogue or RAV4, get good gas mileage, elite reliability, and you can get a very nicely equipped EX-L for ~$31k new.

The Rogues have more technology in them for the same price though. unless you absolutely need AWD... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
