Worst is our 2018 Subaru Outback. Bought new August 11, 2018 maintained according to the factory schedule and it still cost me many thousands in repairs so far. I will never have another Subaru. I wish I’d bought another Toyota Highlander, which was 12,000 more, but with what I have paid in extra repairs it would’ve paid off that 12,000 Highlander and I would’ve come out even with a better car. All my friends who own Subaru said they’re great and even consumer report said they’re great but boy that has not been my experience. My wife owned one when we got married that her dad bought used for her and I thought it was bad because it was used and perhaps not taken care of. But the used Subaru she had and the new one we now have both are indicators that it’s not a good brand to buy if you want to avoid random problems on the highway and paying lots of expensive extra repairs.

I was in a tornado in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and it demolished pretty much all the schools killed some people in a trailer next to us nearly flooded us out of our trailer and it was 3 feet off the ground The number of people were killed it was horrific

Maybe you can read magazines at the library to get a few intelligent questions and then when you walk up to the person at the car, you can ask oh is it fuel injected or carburetor if the hood‘s not open or you can just simply say “I’ve been reading and I don’t really understand the difference between fuel injection and carburetion? And a lot of people will be glad to fill you in and you will rapidly learn honestly that’s kind of how I did it.

I suspect one of the reasons that women drive a little slower is that their depth perception is not quite as good as Men’s. This was discovered when larger groups of women started going into the army and the army couldn’t figure out why they couldn’t hit moving targets so being a government agency, they appointed a task force and figured it out. My sister is a championship shot who paid her way through four years of college on a smallbore shooting scholarship and scored 22nd in the nation at nationals the same week that she got surgery on her elbow and her eye. She is a far better shot than I am, but I am a far better shot at moving targets than she is.

First of all, Catholics are not a denomination they are something completely different. Mormons are currently claiming to be Christians but the founder of Mormonism Joseph Smith, said that “ (Mormons) we are neither Catholic or Christian, but something completely different.” It does amuse me that a number of Christians will not drink, but Jesus turned water into wine and it’s his first miracle. The Bible nowhere condemns drinking it condemned drunkenness. But definitely do avoid drunkenness. It causes problems in the family and for people and of course you end up doing stupid stuff.

Some people have all their maintenance done at the dealer are they keep receipts or they faithfully do it themselves and keep track of the maintenance so you could ask about that

Look up Scotty Kilmer on YouTube. He talks about stuff like this all the time. I hear great things about Subaru, but I’ve owned two and they have cost me so much and repairs I would never buy another. I know a lot of people have good luck with them, but as I say 100% of the ones I’ve owned, small sample, two of two have both been very expensive and very unreliable. Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla’s

In the south east an inch of snow can often cause a snow day. I’ve had snow days in Colorado from anywhere from a minimum of about 8 inches to up to about 40 inches of snow overnight causing snow days.

First time I bought it I bought two bottles of it for my nieces.

That’s quite a bit of money and it’s rich not poor.

Jaguar. Some of the older ones are truly classic, but overall and more recent ones don’t seem that special.

Driving a 78 Ford bronco, the big one, across Wyoming and it dropped the rear driveshaft so I disconnected the driveshaft put it in the back and put it in four-wheel-drive and drove home on front wheel drive

I went to school in Idaho and never was at the Montana State versus Montana game, but I’ve heard it could be pretty wild

But the Duke versus UNC basketball is pretty entertaining.

Subaru. They are supposed to be great, but I have had two one brand new and the maintenance all done at the shop at the top recommended level and less than six years. I put $12,000 worth of repairs into it and this is not including the cost of the 60 and 120,000 mile premium maintenance packages which were about $1200 apiece. I have concluded that Subaru are poor quality, and they certainly are not backed by their manufacturer. I’ll never have another one unless I win it in a raffle and if I win it in the raffle, I’ll be selling it immediately.

Did not know this, thanks for the info

When you live in the west and it’s a long way to anywhere and you feel like you’re being told. Oh this is the best possible thing when you know it’s not, at least not for you. And when you’re driving cross country for hundreds of miles, who wants to stop and wait for two or three or more hours to recharge a battery. Winters are very cold here and using heat draws your battery down. And all these guys that are promoting electric cars act as if the coal that provides the electricity comes from the electricity fairy. The grid we have now will not support anything like the number of electric cars that they want to bring out, but these are often the same people who are protesting new power houses. It would be one thing if they had windmills and solar, and all these other things that were adequate to replace or supplement powerhouses, but they don’t exist And the number of craftsman carpenters, cement, workers, electricians pipe fitters is nowhere near close to the number needed to build the power houses that we absolutely have to have because our grid won’t support the electric cars. My father was a superintendent on quite a number of powerhouses in charge of big chunks of the electrical part of power houses and I can tell you for a fact that the number of powerhouse electricians out there is a minuscule percentage of the number that we need. I speak only of electricians because I heard my father speak of it multiple times and I myself have worked on two different power houses.

Rectangle pizza here as well for pretty much most of my school

You should be fine. I was around a university with thousands of students studying English as a second language to prepare for getting their college degree in English and I rarely saw any English speaker. Be rude to a non-native English speaker. This was several decades ago, but I think in general Americans often bet fluid in their own language are often don’t care that much about grammar, even when they know it.

Had a Toyota Highlander and it was a great car. I wrecked it so I bought a Subaru outback brand new model 2018. Got all the recommended maintenance from the dealership at the deluxe level and I’ve still put over $10,000 in repairs that I’ve paid for and I fought for months with them about paying for the screen in the dash after it went bad the second time. I don’t recommend Subaru.

My dad made the greatest stuff with a barbecue and always use good cuts of meat so I have no experience with that at all

I thought a Subaru was a reasonable compromise but bought a new one in 2018 and have spent over $10,000 in repairs so far. And I do all the maintenance religiously that is called for by the maintenance schedule. What I mean to say is I’ve gotten to the age where I paid to have Subaru do it so the maintenance is done pretty much right on time by the Subaru dealership and I’ve still had those repairs. It’s an outback for reference.

I’ve seen a few in the United States, but male carrier vehicles used to be made that were right hand drive I’ve seen them, but the more recent ones that I’ve seen seem to be left-hand driveK

Don’t buy a Subaru.

My grandmother didn’t drive and my father and his brother swore they’d never marry a woman who didn’t drive. When my dad’s youngest sister left the house my grandmother had learned to drive within 30 days cause she didn’t have anybody to drive her around.

Got my license the day I turned 16. Learned to drive when I was 12. It amazes me how kids today don’t have any drive to get a drivers license that they all get it next year when I’m 18 or when I’m 21 and that’s just fascinating to me.

Circuit city

Tariffs don’t end up well, and I don’t think it’s really a great decision, with the possible exception of China and that will still cause problems

Grew up in Wyoming and people wear them all the time. I have a cowboy hat that I wear for dress but when hiking, I usually wear a collapsible hat that keeps the sun off my ears neck, etc., but functionally it’s exactly like a cowboy hat.

My mom liked it and we ate it on crackers as kids

My parents were very blue-collar lower class when they got married, but they were very educational oriented and we had World book and encyclopedias We lived 18 miles out of town and there was no such thing as the Internet until I was almost 20

My great grandmother had a bunch of medicine bottles and asked kids would go over to her house and we’d play with them while the adults were talking and they were orange and this was 50 years ago or more They’re still orange so many American medication’s are dispensed in these bottles. If you get mail order medication’s with 90 day supply many times they’re an opaque white bottles. Not always but more commonly in my experience, which is just my experience. But the orange bottles yep that’s the real American thing and has been for at least 50+ years

I scored zero on this

Johnny Cash. He had such an encouraging message for the world.

My grandma often drink taster‘s choice and Folgers, but that was back when Folgers was pretty darn good coffee, not like it is now.

I really enjoy KFC gravy over their biscuits are over bread

Yep, if you’re gonna have sausage and gravy, you gotta have biscuits or bread if you have no biscuits

My wife has two or three complete cookbooks dedicated to different grilled cheese sandwiches

Not absolutely sure, but quite possibly not :-)

My grandma used to take me to the Woolworths in Brighton, Colorado. Even as a small child, I thought it was a really cool thing that they toasted their hamburger buns to this day. I regarded as the sign of a class establishment that they toast their hamburger buns, which I think it’s hilarious.. One of my coworkers in her 30s posted on our in-house teams messaging “what is a five and $.10 store?” I explained the concept of Ben Franklin’s and Woolworth to her

I miss the Sears tool department, although the Lowe’s locally has Sears tools, but I just like the whole department. I love the way they would bundle certain things on sale around holidays.

Funny, I was going to say Mervyn’s as well.

We weren’t allowed to have a microwave because my mom thought that it introduced radiation into the house. My dad was an electrician among other things and I’m sure he knew better, but he either didn’t care enough to argue with my mom or was just indifferent about having a microwave so I got my first microwave in 1992. I was pushing towards 30 at that point.

My sister and I when she was less than one and I was not yet too were taken care of by a lady named Mrs. Weddle in Golden, Colorado. (1961 and 1962.) So in 1974 my father was working on the Alaska pipeline and called my mother saying you need to take the bus and go down to Arkansas from Wyoming to spend Christmas with my family and before my mom could ask him why he said oh no, gotta go. The camp is burning down And so they weren’t able to talk anymore for a while. We ride the bus from Wyoming and somewhere in Kansas or Nebraska. The bus is overcrowded and people are standing in the aisle of the bus and an older lady gets on and there’s no seat so I get up and give her my seat and I’m sitting on a suitcase in the eye on she sits next to my mom. She asked my mom that make sure that she gets off at a certain town as she’s old and has difficulty hearing and paying attention. My mom agrees and a few minutes later they introduced themselves and it turns out this lady is the same Mrs. Weddle that took care of us in Golden Colorado, 14 years before. Just thought it was quite an interesting coincidence active God putting us there to take care of this lady who had taken care of us when we were young

It’s the stiffness and I really have to make a point of stretching a couple of three times a day or I noticed it when I get up and down

Yes they can refuse service to anybody they think is an inebriated or incapacitated

My grandfather was the ranking enlisted sergeant in the battle of the bulge on the American side.

I guess my question is why do you care what they think?

Your co-worker would have been freaked 500 S and W magnum.

Yes on Colorado for those outside the Denver Boulder area. They vote the stupidest stuff in like re-introducing wolves when the department of wildlife is said two or three times we shouldn’t do it.
