2021 Touring bought brand new almost 100k already with zero issues. Normal maintenance always over 33 miles per gallon 600 miles to a tank. Great road trip car. And once you get used to the screen, it’s actually amazing. I am also not one to mess with buttons a lot so for me touching the screen once or twice for hvac is not an issue.

2021 Outback Limited XT here. Sadly, I received a lemon: - Turbo replaced at 35,000km - ABS sensor failed and replaced around 20,000km - B pillar rattle I fixed myself after 3 visits to the dealership (loose curtain airbag bracket) - Roof rack replaced at 50,000km due to paint peeling - Transmission replaced at 30,000km That said, after beta testing the car, it's great now.

I had a 2011 Outback that was one of the best cars I’ve ever owned. Sadly I replaced it with a 2019 Outback after an accident and that one was a terrible lemon. Transmission failed at 35k, battery problems (had to replace it 4 times in two years) and then the AC died at 75k and I called it quits.

I like that you can get the Premium without sunroof unlike the Fotrster which upgrades to a sunroof on anything over a base. Where I live we have snow 5 months of the year and a lot of rain in the other months, and to me a sunroof is a waste of money and something else to go wrong. Had a Saab where the drain tube went bad and got a nasty leak soaking the roof pillar and floor. Had sunroofs in a couple other cars without issues but barely used them, just not worth it to me.

Mazda is a good product - in my family’s last 5 new cars have been Mazda, Subaru, Mazda, Chevy ( Bolt), Mazda. Most recent Mazda vinyl/cloth has been bulletproof when at the same age the one Subaru leather (limited) interior was cracking and had the finish coat peeling in places. Plus the first Mazdas transmissions were issue free at 120-150k miles with occasional trailer towing and fluid changes. Wasn’t a cvt fan.

I've owned a 2010 OB, 2015, & 2022; all 2.5 NA engines,. average ~ 27 mpg on all with about 60% highway driving. I agree with your assessments. While the 22 model is NHV continually improves the front seat area seems tighter with less storage. That is my main complaint. With the touchscreen complexity being # 2. It is usable but requires that I take my eyes of the road for 5+ seconds to make adjustments. That feels a bit too long for safety.

Great to see the led headlights….anything to avoid the chronic Subaru short lived halogen headlights syndrome. Last Subaru (and only one of 40 cars owned) i had technically required bumper cover removal for headlight replacement.. But i found (w help from KZbin) bulb replacement from behind was *possible* by peeling the fender liner and cutting up your arm on sharp metal edges. Not fun but worth it.

Just everyone knows, to replace that 12” touchscreen out of pocket is $4500 Canadian, so $3300 US. A friend of mine use to be a Subaru mechanic and he drives a crosstrek with that screen. Also, there is a slight chance when the windshield is replaced that some weird fluke, the software for eyesight can be wiped out of the system and the entire hardware and software needs to be replaced and reinstalled at a cost of $6000 Canadian. I work at an auto glass shop and we are trying to figure out how that happened on a 2023 Subaru legacy. Subaru is blaming us for wiping out the software in two cars.

As long as there's a screen there, you might as well use it, and I know from selling an almost-new used car that young people often won't look at a car if it doesn't have a screen.

Gas filler is on the wrong side for safety, needs to be on the driver's side.

You're wrong. For safety reasons (though I don't care), the gas filler is installed on the LEFT side.

I had a 2021 Legacy Touring XT (basically Outback in sedan form). I hated that Driver Focus system. Way too many false alerts telling me to keep my eyes on the road. It wouldn't have been so bad if it could have been permanently disabled, but to turn it off you had to go through 3 menus and it would enable itself at every start. It was maddening. I have a new Hyundai Tucson Limited and while it does have a driver attention feature too it can be permanently turned off. Long story short, I would never buy a Subaru with it again.

@@ornative7514 Well, if you enjoy the feature I imagine you wouldn't have an issue with it. I don't like a camera constantly watching me and flashing a message and an audible beep when it thinks I'm not watching the road, even when I am. It's irritating and I don't need it. If I had the choice to permanently turn it off that would be fine (like my Tucson), but Subaru thinks the know better than the individual driver.

@@jeffmorse645 Do you have the 2024 Tucson Limited? I have a 2023 Tucson Limited and I do not have any driver attention feature. Do you miss the extra power of the turbo that the Legacy Touring XT has? I had an Outback 3.6r Touring before the Tucson and that was a very comfortable vehicle yet I like my Tucson more.

@@FordEnthusiast413 I have 2023 Limited and it does have some sort of driver attention system. I turned it off almost immediately so I'm not sure exactly what its warnings might be. Yeah, I do miss the power of the XT, but it had terrible driveability. 260 HP turbo shouldn't be paired with a CVT. It constantly jerked, hesitated and surged unless I drove it with a very gentle throttle. A friend drove it and he noticed the jerky throttle right away. The dealer said there was nothing wrong and there were no software updates to address it. After 2 1/2 years I needed a crossover and I really like my Tucson. It has almost every feature the Subaru did and behaves much better in city traffic.

Again thank you for your great and most informative video?.
