I think you forgot the part where you explain how it is genius.

Still waiting to find out why Subaru's New Boxer Engine is Genius.

[jimmyjoseph]

Bought my 2008 Subaru Forester brand new in October 2007. Aside from the usual wear and tear items that need to be serviced and replaced, my Forester runs like a charm and just turned 150, 000 miles. Regular maintenance is the key to making a car last, if you take care of it, it will take care of you. I'm very happy and satisfied with the Forester and it's boxer engine, despite the bad rap many mechanics give it. I'll take a Subaru over any European or American vehicle any day.

The 2005 OUTBACK that sits in my driveway no oil leaks 4, 000 lbs get 24 city/32hwy will go anywhere and has 358, 000 miles I think it speaks for it self!

Thank Scotty 🙏🏼 from a 2002 Subaru Forester owner.

You talked about history not why the engine is genius

Bought my first Subaru 2 years ago, a 97 outback in pretty decent condition... I'm Subaru fam for life now, hands down the best car I've ever owned. Taught myself to fix everything on this car too it's very easy to work on. Swapping my engine soon, can't wait to teach myself more and turn my car into a battlewagon

Our family have owned 11 Subarus over the past 20 years with very minimal problems and no major failures. Engines have been good for well over 100, 000 mi, and 250, 000 in three of them. Handling in all models has been very good (I in particular am an aggressive driver). My latest Outback Turbo is excellent even with the CVT, very quick, and pulls my 3000 pound boat easily.

Owned Subarus continuously since 1978. Have never had to do ANY work on them besides battery, tires, wiper blades and tires. That's on 15 Subies in our family over these 44+ years, We NOW own, 2013 Outback, 2014 Outback, 2015 Crosstrek, 2017 Outback and 2019 Ascent.
SAFETY & reliability are enough for us. The rest is all gravy.

[benjaminallen]

And now Subaru brand has one of the highest safety ratings. Change IS possible.

I worked at a Subaru dealer and I remember the guy that pulled in with his 10 year old outback with 650, 000 miles on the odometer, he bought another outback!

Non-Subaru owners: Subaru's are terrible

Subaru owners: I gawd dang friggin' love this little monster

[KoiRun]

I realized Scotty has a perfect voice for documentaries.

[DidierBan]

Haven’t seen documentaries like this since the end of the 80’s beginning of the 90’s . Bring me nostalgia and excitement.
Thank you Mr. Kilmer

[grif]

And look where we are now; Brikland is virtually unheard of while Subaru is selling us yet another "summer of love"!

[hg.]

Where's the stuff about the "genius engine"?

[Namesakes.unit-x-sq]

I love that Scotty has grown fond of Subaru, one of few honest car makers nowadays.

Yes, the 360 was inadequate for U.S. highways, but I experienced one in 1971 in suburban San Francisco Bay Area. Great for going back and forth to school in town, where speed limits were 35 - 40 mph, especially for a guy with limited budget. My buddy bought a 72 FF-1 with the boxer engine. It displaced 1.1 liters if I remember. Ended up replacing the motor at 80K miles. Two of us removed the spare tire and lifted the motor out, very light, That experience sold a whole generation of friends on Subaru, though the originals were "agriculturally slow, agriculturally dependable." Great fuel mileage.
