Looks like someone needs to try out those new kicks off-road. I know some trails.

There's a lifted Subaru with similar wheels and tires around the corner from the office. I'll try to get a picture of it next time I'm over there. It looks good.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Depends on when we want to go. If it's sooner they'd probably stay home, later in the summer they'd come.

It is, and while we can get it nearly 6k off it's still quite expensive :eh:

Is it just power that makes it nicer?

Yes power is one of the major draws along with smoothness, but there are a whole host of minor changes they made from 2016 to 2019. It'd get us Android Auto, leather seats, keyless ignition, revised suspension, etc. It is also a really nice red color...

I have seriously debated on trading in the Volt on the 3.6R. MPG difference not worth it though. But it is the ONLY subaru I would buy.

The 2020's are being offered with the 2.4DIT motor from the Ascent. I'm looking forward to test driving one of them. Hopefully before all the 3.6's are gone :runaway:
