unhappy Subaru customer in 3...., 2..., 1..
Makes me wonder how the person holding the phone to record this video knew how to be in the right spot at the right time to get an unobstructed view and yet not be in the path of the car

I think enough people have recently proved that there is a limit to how much they will accept, how much they will put up with, before they decide to strike back (health care insurance CEOs learned) and now a guy with a crappy new car RETURNED IT when the dealership refused to take it back
So, will anyone listen now? Can you hear him, now?
Remember, it was a 2 cent tax on tea that kicked the English King's govt out on the colonies on North America. It wasn't something major, it was a lot of trivial shit, until they decided that they'd had enough of a damn king on the other side of the ocean.
Well, this guy decided, no more full price for crap cars, accept the return, and refund the money, or get it delivered back to the show room the HARD WAY
While on the phone with the dealership, Murray was told that the sale was final, and the car was an “as-is” purchase.

Do you get the same thought I did.... he returned the car, and now the dealership has the car back the same way they sold it to him "as is"

I find the reasons that some things were built they way they were, interesting when it turns out that there were design decisions made based only on getting around tax laws (three wheelers) or import laws (the famous "Chicken Tax")
I just learned why it had those rear seats in the bed!
It was a way to get around the 25% “chicken tax” on trucks; with four passenger seats, it was no longer a truck, but an open air tourer, or something like that; a passenger car, in any case.
If you haven't heard of the Chicken Tax before, I posted about it in 2011 https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/09/chicken-war-and-chicken-tax-and-what.html
Subaru’s center-mounted “Passing Lamp”... something I've never heard of until now

the ugliest car I've never heard of, the 1999 Subaru Impreza Casa Blanca. Maybe Subaru thought the Aztec calendar end of days, or the Y2k bug, or some other catastrophe was going to end us all, and might as well get the ugly crap sold out of the warehouse parts bins first?
I shit you not, I've collected the ugliest god damn cars ever made at this link: https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/search/label/ugly most of them have never been discovered by the click bait idiots that keep trying to get you to look at the effing Pontiac Aztek etc

Ford is targeting Subaru owners with a conquest incentive for the Bronco family,
in recent months, Ford has launched those types of incentives that aim to get Challenger/Charger and Camaro owners to purchase a new Ford Mustang, as well as existing Jeep owners a discount on a new Bronco.
But the Subaru incentive only applies to the Seattle area. A Subaru stronghold of loyalty

Ken Block has been dethroned from Gymkhana videos... his last couple were lame, and here's the proof by comparison. (skip the first 30 seconds)
Reminds me of that Baja adventure that BJ Baldwin had, really good stuff. https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-monster-energy-trophy-truck-of-bj.html

A 1914 Ford Model T Depot Hack is on display in the Schaller Subaru Showroom for the 15th annual Subaru of America “Share the Love” national campaign.
The Schaller Subaru dealership in Berlin, CT, a family-owned business, has selected Klingberg Family Centers as a local nonprofit partner for the seventh year.
The 1914 Model T is one of the antique automobiles belonging to the Klingberg Auto Restoration Program, part of Klingberg’s Special Education School.
It will be on display for the duration of the “Share the Love'' campaign, drawing attention to Klingberg’s mission and programs. The “Share the Love” campaign runs from November 17, 2022, through December.

the Subaru flat-12, built for F1 racing, the largest and least-successful design in Subaru history
it was almost 250 pounds heavier than a comparable Formula 1 V-8, and 100 hp less

either someone was inspired by the Partridge Family bus, or they are a fan of the obscure artist Mondrian, who no one would know of without that bus
If you're too young to know what the hell the Partridge Family bus is, https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2015/04/tour-busses-of-famous-musicians.html
well, you're lucky there IS so MUCH good tv you can choose from now... in the 70s? There were 3 channels of tv. THAT WAS ALL THERE WAS.
CBS, ABC, NBC, and I don't really count PBS, as they simply sucked the life out of everything unless you were 5 years old and watching Sesame St. I was.
Still love Big Bird, the Count, Bert and Ernie, Super Grover, Cookie Monster, Kermit, Sherlock Hemlock, the Martians, Mr Johnson the fly in the soup diner guy, the mad painter of numbers (Paul Benedict) in the striped shirt and bowler hat, the Twiddlebugs
no clue who the pink faced ones are. Don't care. Still miss Mr Hooper, Maria, Gordon, Susan, Bob, and Luis
Lefty The Salesman signals to Ernie with a furtive whisper: "Hey, bud! C'mere."
Ernie shouts, "Who, me?" and the Salesman shushes him excitedly.
Ernie whispers, "Who, me?"
The Salesman answers with an elongated "Riiiiiight," and then begins his sales pitch: "How would ya like to buy..." "Tell ya what I'm gonna do"

By the way, Charlotte Rea, the adult in the Facts of Life did a season on Sesame St as the postal delivery worker, and Raul Julia was also a single season cast member who went on to star n the Addams Family movies as Gomez
Mississippi public television concluded that its viewers were not ready for the portrayal of multiracial harmony on city streets and wouldn’t air “Sesame Street.” Parents successfully petitioned the station to
bring it back and invited the show’s cast to visit Jackson, Mississippi. When the show came to town, the local police showed up in riot gear. Fucking racists.

It was wrecked and ruined after 1980. Not even worth discussing. Before that? Pure childhood magic
I'll take the Honeymooners and the first decade of Sesame St, any day
Ok, so from Subaru to Sesame St... obviously this is not the professional paid content that gets advertisers, or subscribers. Nope. I am all heart and enthusiasm

first time I've seen one of these, I bet it means this gets some serious off road time
I've seen and posted these before, I think it's cool that Subaru owners are gung ho about their cars
