Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 10, 2009 7:31 am) I will miss my Altima Hybrid as with the 20 gallon tank could easily go well over 600 miles (once 690) Hoping with this vehicle to average 26 or so, with 17 gallon tank if I run it almost dry expect around 425 miles. Will report back tomorrow. Best thing so far.... The bluetooth works much better on this car than it did in the Altima. I could hear fine both vehicles, but the mike on the Nissan must have been up near the rear view mirror & picked up too much background noise, mike on this mounded right on top of steering wheel. I believe I have earned more Subaru bucks than just about anyone out there. Since I purchased 05 Outback in Dec 04, I have earned over $6000 in Subaru bucks. This is a true story. I travel for work and although get many expenses reimbursed, use the Subaru cards for most other purchases (except for drug stores, supermarkets and gas stations where there are plenty of cards that pay 5%). I have three cards that I rotate during the year and after I max out one card go to another. In fact, in purchasing this car today, gave $1000 deposit on my card, then paid for extended warranty ($1295) with it. That;s $2300 so already earned $69 for the 3% back. I used 12 Subaru bucks for the purchase today so you can see I am well on my way to getting more. I figure major services for this vehicle will be around $600 - $700 for the year (I drive around 30 - 35k per year so one minor service at 15,000 and a major one at 30,000) I will easily earn enough "bucks" to pay for these services when they are due. This way I will have dealer provide all maintenance, thus "tires for life" and double the powertrain warranty. Big deal if I pay a few more dollars for the oil changes.

If you are thinking about buying soon, I just got the Subaru newsletter with a coupon good toward your next vehicle purchase, expires in about a month or so. You are told to gt your best deal, then show the dealer your $500 coupon. Unfortunately, I already have my car, and the coupon is not transferrable...but, perhaps if you sign up for the newsletter right away, if you aren't getting it already, you'll be able to get a coupon as well???
