January 6, 200917 yr Anyone see on the news tonight, what the ONLY car company to increase $$$$ last year in the US was??? Even Toyota and Honda were down, I wont even pick on the U.S. guys..... YEAH Subaru!
January 6, 200917 yr I think people who want to dump their SUVs for something more fuel efficient and rugged are going for Subarus. I have noticed a huge increase in the Subaru population around here. Not only new however... it's becoming more and more common to see EA82s and even EA81s.
January 6, 200917 yr Heh, that is quite amusing. Oh and something kewl that happened up here in North Idaho. This was as of a few weeks ago, but it still seems valid. They were showing a clip of a highway that had been shut down because of weather conditions and there was only one car on the road, still moving under its own power that is. A 2009 Subaru Forester 2.5XT!!! He he he. Oh, and there were suv's on the road, sort of, if you can count the ditch and half the shoulder. Subaru rules and always will ---------------- Now playing: Teddy Verseti - Church via FoxyTunes I don't normally listen to rap/hip hop, but it seems fitting if you've ever heard it.
January 6, 200917 yr The green machine just kept going like the energizer bunny during the Seattle area snow.
January 6, 200917 yr The new Forester is selling like hot cakes in my local area (Coastal NH). The (New) Impreza also seems to be getting common beyond the standard Outback. Subaru hit the niche quite well. I think they did well due to a new hit product 2009 Forester coupled to the dumping of the 2008 Forester with heavy incentives. For our economy though they still only represent around 1% US market share. Edited January 6, 200917 yr by andrew_j
January 6, 200917 yr Now if they had fuel efficient hybrids and diesels they could really clean up. I gotta believe alot of trail stomping Forester owners would enjoy a hybrid. I myself would love to 200 HP Legacy hybrid and with AWD, its something no other car company except for Lexus offers with the 600hL.
January 10, 200917 yr Dude that is sweet news, love it, subaru kicks rump roast! Makes you feel good about owning one!
January 10, 200917 yr Now if the Impreza didn't look like it was influenced by GM with a chrome trowel and they made a Legacy wagon, the sales might be even higher.
