Northern Virginia Roll Call

Me and mo might trade in the rogue for a Subaru when we get go TX

 

What kind?! And it’s too bad this isn’t happening in like one year because I’d sell you mine, since I’m gonna buy my in laws outback.

 

Not sure, maybe a WRX if i can convince her. I mean it might end up being a year from now, who knows! Ill keep ya in the look for sure. Why are you gonna by that one?

 

Just because it’s two years newer and he’s eyesight, which is the thing where it starts and stops on it’s own with adaptive cruise control. It’s the best shit ever!!

If somehow this does end up happening, I’d be selling my car for cheap, like $15k or so as long as it goes to a friend.

 

Schweet! I loved driving your car. Ill talk to her, she might be interested in waiting for a year or so. Not really a rush, just want something more fuel efffecient and fun to drive.

 

Where are you installing your lift? On base / off base?

I thought eyesight was the blind spot monitoring and headlights (or fogs?) that move when you steer. Or is it all lumped together?

 

This tank was pure highway. Average 75-80mph with ac on. I stopped for gas very shortly after the light came on. I had 429.x miles on the trip meter, and put in 14.3 gallons of gas. First time i have hit 30mpgs

Edit: the light came on at roughly 1/8 of a tank, so i couldve kept going but didnt want to chance it on highway i wasnt familiar with

 

Maybe one day when your free I can check out the WRX

 

Negative ghost rider. BSM isn't tied to eyesight, because I have it but no eyesight. I'm not sure about the responsive headlights/fogs though. My wifes impreza has eyesight with the adaptive cruise control and auto emergency braking and it's the tits. The emergency braking saved my ass one time too. I was busy blocking an asshole driver from merging in one time, and the car stopped itself before I rear ended the truck in front of me

 

Eyesight is the big set of cameras above the rearview mirror @buyobuyo.

 

The light on at 1/8 of a tank seems high. The light doesn't come on in mine until the fuel computer says I have 50 miles to empty.

 

I was watching my computer too. Mine said 60 when it clicked on, but flipped over to 50 shortly after.

 

Roger. I didn't pay much attention to those features when I was shopping for my WRX because I knew I didn't want them and wasn't getting a Limited which was the only level WRX it was available on at the time.

They must hide it pretty well as I don't think I've ever noticed any cars with it, but I'm not looking for it either.

 

Yeah they're fairly unobtrusive.

 

So i went and saw the hoopd at the paint shop today...somehow went from a 10k$ quote to a "revised" 26k$ quote, so that's.....something....

 

WTF? How do they justify that? Better by gold plated when you get it back for that price.

 

They really couldn't . They just kept saying that's the cost to fix all of the items i wasn't happy with. They saw the car and gave me a quote for 8500 which was rounded up to a 10k limit, because all cars are a can of worms. If they would have gave me this price it would never have ended up there. Especially since the car is all new or stripped sheet metal, none of which is being changed or repair, it strictly body work...

 

Chincoteague or Assateague island and why? ..........go!

 

Assateague you can drive on the beach on the MD side! I don't know if you can in Chincoteague.
