I love my Thule crossbar set & Thule kayak carrier I ordered with my 2024 Forester. Makes life alot easier as opposed to trying to fit a kayak in the trunk of a 2019 Ford Mustang that I traded in for my Forester😂😂. Love as always your informative videos. But Alex, I was wondering.. Now that i have seen your own personal Subaru, I’m just curious.. Why didn’t you and the misses get the Wilderness model. To me, the both of you look like the type of people who are outdoors a lot. Great content as usual, keep em coming. ✌🏼

I like the Wilderness. However, the things I do not like is the Touch Screen and no Manual Transmission Option. Give me normal buttons that do not move and change like they do with a Touch Screen and give me a Manual Transmission Option. In addition, Give me a Key. Not having a Key is one less Security Feature.

I thought I was a Subaru owner for life until recently 😢 My 2016 crosstrek met up with a large buck and was totaled. I purchased a 2024 crosstrek that met the same fate within 2 months and 2000 miles on it. It was not totaled however I have been without a car since January because no parts available or on back order to fix it. Subaru’s answer to this problem with countless calls to their customer advocate dept. was 30 day rental reimbursement. I have been without my car for 5 months. Somehow the math doesn’t add up! NEVER AGAIN

I just purchased a new 2024 Forester Sport 5 days ago. I like that getting a 24 now means the bugs are worked out of that generation. Ill never buy a first year run of any model. I also like having some real knobs and buttons instead of that touch screening of everything. I can replace a worn out knob but you cant replace a slow touchscreen. This is my first Subaru and I love it. Ive bought 27 cars and trucks in my life and currently own 4 vehicles and this one is my favorite so far. Wish I had tried Subaru years ago.

Thank you Alex for your dedication and excellent work. I’d like to suggest something: 1) turn off this mode altogether 2) upon exit move seat backwards as you like, it will stay in this position also for entering the vehicle, 3) when needed enter the vehicle with seat already backwarded , then push memory button. Isn’t it easier ?

Bought a new 2024 Outback Onyx XT a couple of weeks ago and felt I got a good deal, and this video confirms that. So happy I bought when I did! I owned the Outback I traded in for fourteen years, and it was hard to say goodbye. It was still in excellent condition and had low miles, so I hope it serves the next person as well as it served me. I love the modern features on the new car, and I appreciate your channel so much to teach me how to use them. I’m looking forward to many enjoyable adventures in my new car. Thanks again!

Also, new subaru owners beware!!, My old forester had the exhaust much lower. And my previous bike rack was fine with it. But when getting the new car! in. 2022 The new forester had the exhaust much higher.... Well when folded up, it roasted parts of the rack with the heat from the exhaust. So be sure to make sure your rack has clearance to avoid that isssue!

I saw someone on instagram with a rack that had the same heat issue. Worse melting tho!

When I bought my Outback 2 months ago, I have the dealer installed the factory hitch. That being said, I have an 80 plus pound cargo e-bike. So that reduces the number of bike racks that I can use. Some people are using motorcycle or moped carriers, they can be had on sale for about $100 and are meant to hold much heavier bikes. Granted it's only for one bike, but for my case that may be okay.

This is going to be the best comments section for the next several days. Let the warriors begin. I will say to the 1UP sheep the QuikR Stuff redesign is much better than the ancient 1UP! The Kuat Piston Pro X is better than both! While all of that may be considered opinion, the fact I have for you is the Piston Pro X in the upright position of the Crosstrek you can open the rear hatch without having to drop the rack. Enjoy.
@AlfredoAve
@AlfredoAve Күн бұрын
QuikR may very well be better than 1UP but QuikR wasn't around when I bought my 1UP and no reason to replace it now when it's still working just fine. I have a Super Duty single with an add-on. I like the versatility of being able to leave on the single, which actually sits under bumper level when in upright position, or attach the add-on on if I want to carry a 2nd bike. I also have the Kuat pivot swingaway and Kuat was very good about replacing it under their lifetime warranty when it wasn't working properly. Does the Piston Pro X have a bunch of plastic though? That's one of the downfalls of the non-1UP/QuikR rack products

Great video, thank you. Do you have any suggestions for an aftermarket hitch for the Outback XT? Does the dual exhaust make the installation more difficult?
@m3rdpwr
@m3rdpwr Күн бұрын
When I bought my Outback 2 months ago, I had them add a factory hitch. Yes, it can be more involved, but I think it's cleaner and the better option and also keeps your ground clearance the same. It will be more expensive, but if you're handy you could do it yourself. Many of the hitches I've seen including the factory one, requires you to drop the exhaust. Some of those aftermarket ones, also require you to drill holes in part of the subframe. In any case, the factory hitch and some of the aftermarket ones, require you to notch the bumper.

​@@m3rdpwr was it a 2" or 1.25" hitch?
@alexpmo
@alexpmo Күн бұрын
I would not recommend an aftermarket hitch for a few reasons: structural integrity, warranty, and ground clearance. The OEM Subaru hitch is the only hitch that is crash test rated. It also looks a lot cleaner than the aftermarket hitches that tend to hang down lower. The OEM hitch is more expensive but it's well worth it. Should be able to get one installed for about $700-$800 after parts/labor. And yes, the exhaust must be dropped for install so it's a bit labor intensive.

@@daweed980 they start at about $400. Different models depending on how many bikes you want to carry and how much weight capacity per bike you're looking for. Similar to 1UP are Quikr Rack, which I think are made by the inventor of the 1UP rack. Check out some videos and you'll see that bikers prefer 1UP! I've had mine over 5 years, it's been great. It even survived getting hit by cars twice directly and once when my car was totaled from the side, but the rack didn't actually get hit itself in that collision.
