Replying to: pharmd718 (Nov 21, 2008 7:06 pm) My XT is averaging 21 mpg in mixed driving. It's got around 800 miles on it now. The other day after a fill up the computer shot up to 30mpg as I coasted around town. It didn't last of course, but it was interesting to see.

Cost aside, and little personal preference for auto over manual, what are the arguments pro and con for auto over manual (and I'm talking more in terms of performance than convenience), and vice versa? Haven't fully grasped the functional differences b/w the manual and auto AWD systems. Would the manual AWD system function "better" in snow than the auto? I'm considering leasing a 2.5 X Premium and wouldn't be opposed to a manual. Don't know how a manual will affect the residual, but it would save $1,000 on the cap cost. Any input appreciated. Thanks!

Replying to: golfnff (Nov 22, 2008 3:43 pm) stock amplifier in the head unit. The subwoofer system I added is (just like with the Subaru factory subwoofer system) a powered unit - which means it has an additional amp to drive the subwoofer. The Infiniti system I installed is a combined package - ie the amp, subwoofer speaker, crossover circuitry, bass boost adjustment etc are all combined into one self contained "box", to which you must provide +/- V power, left & right speaker wiring, and a frame GND connection. Not very difficult. Most 6.5" speakers are pretty efficient and don't require a lot of power to drive them, so using the stock Subaru head should work just fine. But I believe there is no way to get good solid subwoofer level bass without adding a secondary amplifier.
