NO SHOVELING!! Subaru Plowing out of (30"+ Snow) Snowzilla!!

Trying to get my '96 Subaru Impreza Wagon out of the non-plowed parking lot. Tried to see how it would do without shoveling.
I ended up getting a little further but decided not to strain the 350k mile car lol

du 30 super sorry for the late reply. I'm from Maryland. If you are still looking and deciding on a car....AT wrxs were only offered from 2002 to 2010. And the. 2015+. We're you thinking about new or used? If used, I would say an impreza. Less chance it was beat on and Non Turbo imprezas would be more reliable as it gets to high mileage. Just gas and go. Wrx is more fun but requires more caution and maintenance for the boosted engines. Of course you see wrxs and stis with 200k+ miles but you see more % imprezas that go that long. If you are looking at new, we have trhe 2016 wrx cvt and we love it. Great for road trips and Washington dc traffic.

[@wannabetowasabe]

Good suggestion. My Toyota Land Cruiser and my Subaru Legacy Wagon both have stick shift. After seeing a few videos like this, I'm glad that I have manual transmissions. I think rocking the vehicle between forward and reverse is more effective in manual. I also think a manual is able to deliver just the right amount of torque to the wheels so that you don't spin and form ice under the tires.

[@0xyg3n]

Such an elegant and successful solution.

[@dyates6380]

I had a 2013 Subaru Outback. I traded it in for a 2018 Tacoma, which I love, but damn, I should have kept the Outback too. Not only was it one of the best built vehicles I've ever had, but it was ridiculous in the snow. I had so many friends who were mad at me when I traded it because they wanted to buy it but I didn't know that. LOL. I'm sure I'll get another one, but damn, they're pricy now.

Leave your snow chains on next time. The engine has enough power to move the snow, you just need a grip on the wheels.

Next time, turn off the traction control. It's counter intuitive, but will get you out of snow and mud more easily because your brakes won't be fighting against your wheel spin. But once you get going, definitely turn it back on.

And about 30 grand in living room furniture. A huge entertainment center and also a 50 inch screen TV. That belong's to a rental company. And they was angry that they lost the stuff. Due to the tenants that was renting from them no longer live there. And they could not do anything since i am the new tenant on the lease. And the officer said that i could be charge with theft.
