Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness | 1K-mile Review | Drivability

[@jerewynegar2759]

Bought one today. I’ve had 2 Grand Cherokees. This is just as good if not better. Very solid feel when driving. Feel very safe while driving.

😎 This Wilderness trim is great! I'm sure it will hold its value well, too.

Transmission follow-up: The benefits from the smooth operation outweigh any of its quirks 👍🏻

I’ve owned a crosstrek wilderness since November and put over 15k miles on it. It’s not only been flawless but the headrests got softer and the mpg improved over time.

[@MrCliffWorks]

Nice!

Do you panic every time you need to pass someone on the highway?

[@MrCliffWorks]

@RaytheonNublinski lol...now I'm the guy I used to pass

I looked at some color options at the dealership and I went with the magnetic greay. That color goes real well with the body guards. Love mine but the problem is I already have over 9000 miles on mine lol. Can't keep it new forever.

[@MrCliffWorks]

Yeah- that's a good color.

Good info, never thought I would reach a point where Subaru’s would appeal to me but at 56 I think I would like any of the Outback’s, Forrester or this. I’m looking at one as a daily driver that would be suitable for some car camping. A few years back when I test drove an Outback what struck me was that it was the perfect height while getting in it…lol. Not to low like my lowered mustang gt that I had at the time and not to high like my current Jeep wrangler. Our needs change with age.

[@MrCliffWorks]

Exactly! The WRX was amazing but not practical at this point. Maybe I can get a project car to tinker with in the future.

I’ve owned a WRX & two STIs ; they were awesome but I feel like I aged out of them - there’s something icky about young-ish 20 something year old checking out a 56 year old in a boy racer car ! 😒 I have a 2025 Outback Wilderness now - it’s an amazing vehicle ! Subaru = ❤️

[@MrCliffWorks]

I wish I had owned a Subaru earlier in life. I would have had even more fun with them. I do have some ideas for this Crosstrek if I'm able. It's great as it is, if not.

[@lukemorgan8447]

Still looks and smell new though.
