A MUST READ HONEST REVIEW.
It is currently 06/13/2022, my 2007 Subaru B9 Tribeca Limited is (I mean this) the best factory SUV of all time. Of any brand, any year. I (24 y/o) was taught to drive a decade ago, in this car. Purchased it off from my mother, and still use it daily. I've owned other SUV's, and was a valet driver for 4 years which allowed me to drive just about any vehicle (besides the extreme) you can think of. I mean this wholeheartedly, my 7 seater, 2007 Subaru B9 Tribeca has been comfortable, seen 130mph, and has handled turns/curves at speeds any other SUV would never stand a chance with. This SUV defies sport utility vehicle. 180,000 miles on the dash, and will go 0-60mph in 7-8 seconds (fasted documented 7.38). I will hold onto this discontinued gem until the car world realizes the potential the H6 3.0 DOHC Boxer engine holds. When this car was manufactured I was playing little league baseball, I have been able to avoid life threatening accidents because of the responsive steering and control, driven through 9" snow storms and make it home safe. I've had the liberty, on closed courses, to drive in competitive timed course runs and beat out sedans like Lexus, Infinity, Honda, Toyota. Truly designed to be a "soccer mom" SUV, this vehicle has altered my perspective on modern day cars and SUVs. I cannot express enough how reliable, safe, and fun the B9 Tribeca has been to me through the years. The Subaru Ascent seems to be inspired from the B9 Tribeca, however I've driven it. Nothing compares. THE CLOSEST COMPARISON I HAVE: 2015 Audi q5 or 2017 Acura MDX. Thank you for reading, and please do not forget about the treasure that the Subaru B9 Tribeca, 7 seater, 4,100lb, 250hp H6 boxer engine, Symmetrical AWD has provided to the consumer for almost two decades. - Sincerly, Proud Subaru Owner

Love this car
The only issue I have is replacing the head gasket but that’s a given w Subaru’s at high mileage. Other than that I love this vehicle.

Underated SUV
I have almost 140000 miles on my 07 B9 Tribeca and overall I am satisfied with it. The MPG is terrible I average about 16 on Premium fuel. The car has held up very well it looks much newer than it is. Even in PA there is no rust or corrosion. It is extremely comfortable on road trips and I would not hesitate to take it anywhere. The 3.0 engine struggles to haul this hefty vehicle at low RPM's but once it hits about 4000 RPM performance is acceptable. Besides suspension bushings and an A/C relay I have not had any issues outside of normal wear and tear. The interior has held up VERY well and every feature works as intended. I would purchase this vehicle again but would find a 08 or newer with the 3.6 engine.

Sleek alternative to the minivan
This was our first time purchasing a Subaru. As our family was growing, we were looking for a dependable alternative to the minivan. This Subaru Tribeca delivers. We lucked out in our used car search and found a fully loaded one 7 pasenger Tribeca (navigation, DVD, leather, etc). Very comfortable ride, averaging 19mpg but mostly city miles. Took in on a trip up to MI and averaged 24mpg. I quickly fell in love with my Subaru and ended purchasing the Imprezza Outback Sport as our secondary vehicle.

GREATER THAN YOU THINK
I bought my subaru tribeca b9 with 93 k miles and three years old. It was a very good deal. The car is a little lazy when starting to run but then it's a pleasure to drive it. I have a limited 7 seats model and my two daughters love to have their friends with us. Enjoy your tribeca.

Best car I have owned
I have had my Tribeca for almost three years now and now have 125,000 on it. It has been a wonderful car and I love every minute I spend in it. No problems with the car. I hope it last another 125,000.

This is my second Subaru
I absolutely love this vehicle. We got a seven seater as we are expecting our third child. It feels luxurious inside this vehicle with ample space for the whole family. We traded our 1997 Subaru Outback for this car and boy what an upgrade! We know how reliable Subarus are and are stable in all kinds of weather. We live in Northern California where rain and hail are regulars. I couldn't be any safer with than the AWD of this car. Every time we look at our car we just can't help but have "perma-grins". Another LONG TERM keeper from Subaru. Haven't you seen a lot of old Subaru's out there that out live their owners? Yes Subaru's will last forever.
