Why do subies need premium (early 2000s h6 engines)?

Wanting some inexpensive dd and wanted an outback but don't really want one of the "engine is going to blow soon" turbos or headgasket change every 3k of the others.

Maybe an early rav4, want something for errands, gas mileage but still be able to get places. Don't know if a sedan would work, want a wagon or small suv. The bug is slow, needs to be rejetted but haven't had a chance to mess with it.

 

what are the 1st gen crosstreks selling for now?

 

More than i want to spend. But what I've seen, people say new subies still leak oil.

 

i had a 2017 crosstrek that i put 30k miles on in a year. It never leaked oil but it sure consumed it.

 

I have been looking into rav4’s, highlanders and Honda pilots. Don’t want a Subaru after doing research.

 

Who's in?

Yup... When you search classifieds and 56% are mechanic specials due to needing an engine, not a great sign.

The 3.0 h6 engines seem to be bulletproof, but as you may have noticed, those come with a premium price tag. They are usually ll bean packages.

 

Yes please

Me too, same time. This sounds insanely hilarious and fun.

 

How about a hatchback corolla? ~35 MPG

Didn't think about those things, but only want to spend a couple grand especially if I'm still keeping the bug to mess with.

Accord/civics might work but wagons are harder to find.

Doh!

 

Sweet! I didn't read much, but hopefully the karts are gas and not electric.

@Kappes03 did you register?

Anyone who registers, we'll have to do some practice at unser as long as they don't double their prices again.

I am still impressed that you ran up that wall next to the ladder in them

 

4wd strap not even engaged...

 

Whoever mentioned a matrix earlier for a dd.. There are some cheaper ones out there.

@thefatkid anything to look out for with them? Mid 2000s models with manual trans. They seem pretty basic, all I'd require is power windows.
