Did you start out mid-20's before the engine was broke in? I'm only at 100 miles, but haven't seen anything close to 34-36

Does anyone know where to find the accessory installation guide for the crossbar base on a 5 door (non-sport)?
Dealer is quoting $50 for installation, and I'm wondering if that is worth it. Edit: I found the installation guide for the 2011 and assuming it is the same there is no installation. What the dealer said is that they mark up 25% over MSRP on accessories to cover dealer overhead. Note to self, always get your accessories port installed if possible.

Just got a text from the salesman with a picture of my car
he said it doesn't have any options on it but they will honor anything I wanna order at cost. At this point, after 3 1/2 months of waiting, that works for me! |

You're not going to for a few thousand miles at best. My previous '06 Forester didn't start seeing its stated fuel economy until 20k + miles or so. Be patient.

Just got the call, I'll receive my car tomorow or the day after, depending of the avaibility of the mecanics to fix the MC. The car has been at the dealer since the 21st, but the were waiting of the parts.
I ordered on october 5th, a 4 door canadian sport package. I'm having them install nokian hakka 7 studded on it, so I'll write my comments as soon as I try it. Merry Christmass guys! |

well update...Called USAA and they did a further look into the VIN in another system...and it does reflect 2.0L H4 AWD Wgn.....so despite the description on the ID card saying WRX/STI..it appears the insurance evaluation is accurate........sigh.....wishing it was a few bucks less...as it more than the 11 Outback and the 09 CTS....

My dealer said it is not on the accessory list from Subaru. I saw other people post they were able to get any $500 accessories directly from the parts department, and I wish that were the case for me. In our case they want to have everything on the vehicle sales contract up front before taking delivery. |

Those of you manually keeping track of mpg, are you filling the tank all the way up each time to the top of the fuel tank or do you stop when the pump shuts off and hope that from one pump to another the auto shut off will be the same?

I know that. I am getting at the issue of how to get accurate volume measurements between stations that use different pumps. Stop at first click doesn't equal the same across stations. |

Let's say each time you fill up, the amount of fuel actually in your tank can vary up to 1 gallon (in reality probably much less). It can affect your calculated mpg by maybe 8% (say 12 gallons vs 13 gallons). If you instead reply on a 4-tank moving average, the potential error goes down to 2%.

Y'all are getting all mathematical on us!
Keep it simple, just go to the same station and same pump for this science experiment of yours. |

If the error is truly random it would fall under a gaussian bell curve (centered around the average shut off point, with equal numbers falling above and below that point) and with more data points it would tend to cancel itself out. I don't remember the exact math (been a while) but that is the gist of it.
