Quality All The Way
I traded a 2018 Subaru 2.5 Legacy Limited for my 2019 Subaru 2.5 Outback Limited to get back into a SUV. I really like my Legacy, especially the mileage, but I missed the versatility of a SUV. I feared that I was giving up a premium ride, but I found my new Outback rode even better than my Legacy did. It is very quiet and offers all of the electronic safety features I had on my Legacy. Prior to purchase, I compared the Honda CRV and found the Outback to be roomier and offered many amenities at a lesser cost than the Honda. In the end, it was a no brainer. One of the criticisms I often hear about the Outback 2.5 is that it lacks power and acceleration. I have found that not to be true. It has plenty of get up and go. I now have 2500 miles on my Outback, and I have no regrets whatsoever. The 2019 Subaru 2.5 Outback Limited is an excellent car.

2nd Subaru
Wife and I love the Outback. Perfect height for getting in/out of the car. Do not have to climb to get in or climb to get out. First new car with CVT tranny, this one is far better than most. Love the safety tech (Lane departure warning, blind side warning and directional headlights that turn when you do!) Good gas mileage for a vehicle with all wheel drive. Very stable on streets, roads and highways. Adaptive cruise control is great! Visibility is good as well. We love it!

2019 Subaru Outback
Traded in my 2015 Outback with 182,000 miles in four years. Best car I ever had. Hoping the 2019 Outback has the same results. My sales guy Zach Stovall was young but very knowledgeable and extremely easy to deal with. Not pushy and patient.

Battery Drain!
I had brand new 2019 Subaru Outback limited. I really liked the car when I purchased and particularly I liked all these safety features. But for my experience, this car is not RELIABLE. The battery (for no reason) kept draining. Each time when I took it to the dealer, they told me that battery failed and they replaced it, but why the battery keeps draining, no answer? Imagine, you go outside, you are late to your work and you are rushing, but when you go yo your car, you even cannot open the door. This literally happened to me. Subaru makes all these advertisements that you take the outback and go for outdoors, camping etc. What happens if the car does not start when you go camping for two days? you are in the middle of no where? Because of this reason, I hated this car. I always kept a jump starter in my car, which I feel is absurd for a new car (not to mention that I never had this issue in my old cars). I was so much frustrated, and finally I sold it back. When I search it online I noticed that this is not just me, and there are many out there having similar issues. Other problems: Windshield broke, and fuel pump replacement. Summary, it is a good car but the bottom line is RELIABILITY and this feature was missing in this car. So, I do not suggest Subaru Outback to any person (until they solve this stupid problem).

Subaru No Longer Bulletproof
Just bought a 30K Subaru with all the bells and whistles. Great car and fantastic comfort. Subaru has worked out all the details with their infotainment and they are great at standing behind their product. Make sure you find a dealership that cares, as a quality dealership will make all the difference in the world. The car rides great and has fantastic visibility. The Eagle Eye system works without a flaw and the adaptive cruise control is fantastic. Great car and a must to have if you are looking for a well-built family car in any region and you want extra utility.
