We have been shopping for a mid-size SUV and have driven and quite liked the Tribeca. However, the ridiculously high Cdn pricing has put us off. Is there anyone from Subaru corporate lurking here that can explain why a base 7-passenger B-9 is 20 percent higher in Canada than the US after converting the dollars? This is without destination/freight/PDI, which itself is almost exactly double in equivalent dollars, notwithstanding that we are only 230 miles farther from Lafayette than some place such as Great Falls Montana. I don't believe that the difference is at the dealer end, as Canadian invoice on a 7-passenger basic is CAD42,047, or USD36,842 at current rates. Pretty frustrating when we see that our US friends are buying Ltds with navigation for that or less. We won't be buying at these differentials.

| I got a 2006 5 psgr Ltd with puddle lights, mirror w/compass, wheel locks for $27572 from Fitzmall. Nice so far, wish it had an outlet in the dash for my radar detector but I love that the rear seats slide back...room for car seats without having to buy a minivan. | |

You should have coverage from the moment you take possesion. Check also regarding license plate. e.g., Alberta license plates can be transferred on another vehicle for upto 15 days for transit without having to inform the registry. 3. I don't know 4. None You will only pay GST at the border. Tribeca is made in the US. |

Replying to: occking (Aug 05, 2006 3:05 pm) I may have to look at that option. Wifey is pushing for me to get a vehicle bigger than the Forester. -juice
