  Wonderful Vehicle... So Far - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By Love IT!!! Good Job - June 14 - 6:00 am

  This was definitely one of the best purchases Ive ever made. The car is solid, whips around turns with superior handling. I love the paddle shifters for the manual mode. The premium sound is a plus (worth the extra $$). Easy latches on roof rails to swing them around.

  Love it! - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By jcbasser - June 9 - 1:16 am

  Hello, Love the car. We purchased the car with 41 miles. I love the feel of the leather and the seats are very comfortable. The dual zone AC is great because I run hot so I always need the AC on. We just took the car on a long road trip with lots of hills and open roads. We averaged 31.5 MPG. Great! Around town I am at about 24 mpg. The fit and finish is great. No squeaks or rattles. My car does not have any vibrations others have noted. My other car is a 2004 Mazda 6 wagon which I also love. However, the finish, stereo, ride, of the outback is great. the power is less then the Mazda, but the Mazda averages only 19 MPG.

  Highly recommended - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By ES of MD - May 8 - 10:00 am

  Very very pleased! Quietest ever. I love the CVT transmission and the paddle wheel shifters on the steering wheel for holding me back down the mountains w/o wearing out the brakes. I got the tan cloth interior with a gold exterior on the premium model then had the dealer send it to a leather shop to convert to tan leather for about $1200. Getting 30.5 mpg avg so far. Have put 18,000 mi on it already. The media hub and stereo on the premium is super. Love the safety ratings and the all-wx option. My 85 year old parents love to ride in it. I use a thin cushion on the seats to mitigate bottom firmness and headrest pitch discomfort. I really like this car and also own Explorer and Saab.

  Best of the Best - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By Adam - May 7 - 7:26 pm

  Wow! Drove it 347 miles non stop from dealer driveway to my driveway, virtually all @ 70 or 75 MPH and averaged 28.2 MPG and still had more than a quarter of a tank left. A little more than five hours: the seat was great; no fatigue, great support. Vehicle is quiet, tight and fun to drive. The 3.6R is a great engine.

  Very Impressed - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By "Subie-Wan" - April 25 - 8:46 am

  When my dealer invited me to drive the 2010 Outback, I was so impressed I had to have one. Their CVT puts all the others I have driven to shame.The interior design and comfort is a step up. I am a long-time Subaru owner and this new Outback just reinforces my beliefs. Its a solid "10" across the board for me. Bring on a diesel.

  Great value - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By HDNVALLEY - April 15 - 6:06 pm

  After test driving most competitors, both import and domestic, the Outback had the best combination of price, ride quality and versatility. I really like its quiet ride and the smooth CVT transmission. It handles great in snow. Cold weather seems to reduce the fuel mileage more than I expected. So far Im getting 24-25 MPG with local and short trip driving. After 3200 miles an alignment is the only warranty service performed. The toe-in was off both front and rear and caused the car to wander a lot at 65-70 MPH. Overall Im quite pleased with the Outback.

  Awesome Deal - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By BlagoDave - April 14 - 10:33 am

  Great do-it-all vehicle, comfortable and quiet ride, loads of storage, good gas mileage, low price (compared to similar size cars), convenient features, AWD dependable traction. The new lines of the OB maintain the sleekness of the old OB while giving it a substantive feel. Some used to normal transmissions find the CVT odd, but the lack of jerk in moving from gear to gear is the way the driving experience ought to be. Some think the electronic parking brake weird. Like the CVT, new may seem strange, but once you get used to it, you may think, "That makes sense." Subaru has a reputation for quirky cars and devoted fans. If innovative is quirky, this car qualifies and created a new fan.

  A Clear Winner - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By Car Guy - April 8 - 2:56 am

  Just turned a thousand miles on my new green Outback. We needed something larger than my Forester XT for practical reasons, and we looked at various options. Few non-humongous SUVs and wagons have much space behind the middle seats, and of course theyre heavy and gluttonous. And expensive. This car is wonderful, a combination of room, comfort and economy (and low cost) thats not available elsewhere. Most people buying anew car should consider one of these if they need room at all.

  Outlook not for sea kyakers - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By John Giese - March 11 - 12:16 pm

  The roof rack on the 2010 Outlook is a disaster. Long the favorite vehicle for sea kayakers you cant fit 3-4 sea kayaks on anymore. It costs a grand at Yakima Racks to get replacement and install a rack that will work. Multiple problems with factory rack and Subaru rack accessories. Hard for heater to warm feet, fan very noisy and interior controls difficult to see in the dark. Otherwise quite happy with vehicle.

  Hey, I fit! - 2010 Subaru Outback
  By Jeff - March 10 - 1:56 pm

  Im a big guy, 63, 250 lbs, and have been driving a big hurkin SUV for the last 10 years. With no need for this large of a vehicle anymore, I decided to downsize to a smaller SUV. I checked out Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Chevy and Ford. I was actually leaning towards the Honda Pilot when my wife pointed out the Subaru dealership on the way home. I told her no way! Last time I had tried to test drive a Subaru Forester back in 1999, I couldnt contort myself to squeeze into the drivers seat without smacking some part of my body on the car. Anyhow, decided to give the Outback a try. I cant believe how comfortable it was! Better than any other small SUVs I had tried. Bought it on the spot!
