Just brought home an '05 Outback XT - short shift, Momo stick, mats, hood protector, cargo net, bumper guards. $27,500. What a great car! Smooth around town below 3000 rpm, then watch out...it goes like a scalded cat. Excellent treatment by sales staff - I'm impressed. Formerly had Grand Am GT, Eagle Talon, several Toyotas (which are also excellent cars). I'm in the snowbelt - 180" per winter usually.
 
Glad to be a Subie Newbie. CSR1

Proud owned of 2.5 ltd outback for 10 weeks now, & just hit 7200 miles. Very pleased so far with my purchase. I applied for, and received Chase Subaru Master Card & well on my way towards earning the maximum of $500 per year in "Subaru Bucks" I do a lot of traveling & just using my card for that & business expenses will easily amount to $17,000 per year in purchases, which will get me the $500.
 
My questions is, I am having my wife use the same card (extra one with her name) because I wanted to be sure to get the maximum $500 back but it is obvious we will be way over that. I really want to have one card (account) for me to use strictly for my business expenses to help keep track of these expenses and have her use a separate one for her stuff (like shopping, etc.) I will still get to the $17,000 threshhold without any problem. Found out I can pay my Comcast Cable bill, phone bills, etc., utilizing the card. Her is the questions.... Does anyone know for sure if I have two separate Subaru Master Cards, I am sure they will both earn 3% (at least I think they will) but any potential problem in redeeming them to possibly earn up to $1000 per year? I know that's a lot of money to spend on credit cards every year, that would be around $34,000!
 
Another little trick is to get a AAA (American Auto Club) Visa & you can save up to 5% on gas purchases (if you pay at the pump)
 
All comments welcome.
 
Also, can anyone tell me what takes place on the Subaru Crew chats Thursday evening?

Where did you get that deal (27,500), and did you have to hit them over the head to get it?

I believe that the maximum that can be applied to a new purchase or lease is $2000. If you had a separate card with your wife as the cardholder, I don't see why coupons earned with that card couldn't be used for maintainance, repairs, parts, extended warranties.
 
Since our daycare center started accepting credit cards in September, we're going to get our fifth coupon about four months before our anniversary date with Chase. My wife has an additional card on my account and I'd like to reverse the situation to get above $500 in coupons if it's possible.
 
BTW, the Citi Dividend card pays 5% for groceries and gas purchases.

Whoa Nellie...that turbo is causing a head rush! Not turbo lag - mind lag. I paid $27,500 AFTER the downpayment...actually, more like $29,500 all told.
 
Sorry for the Newbie excitment.

Demand varies a lot by region. You'll pay more in Colorado or Vermont than you will here in MD, for instance.
