great car for the money

I have had my 2007 B9 Tribeca for almost three and i have loved every minute of ownership! It is a great car. It is amazingly comfortable to ride in and for such a large car it has amazing performance and handling. I live in upstate NY and we get a lot of snow and the car handles it like a champ.The only problem i can see with the car is that the gas tanks is a little small and we have had to replace the front right bushing twice. But beside that this car is amazing and i would not trade it for the most expensive car in the world!!

LOVE IT!!!!

I love this car!! My husband drove It and fell in love, we have 3 kids all of which are in car seats and It fits them all great. We previously owned a minivan and now are no longer sacrificing style in this vehicle. Great car and I plan to pass this down to my son when he starts to drive.

Never again

This was my first and last Subaru. No pickup, gas mileage was horrible. GPS needs updating and the wipers needed to be replaced 4 times in 2 months. The visability out of the side rear windows is dangerously poor. Pros....great dashboard, back up camera is a nice feature and it does go well in the snow...that is if you can see out of the front windshield due to the poor WIPERS!

Great crossover vehicle

Changed from GMC Envoy to Subaru B9 Tribeca and absolutely love the difference in handling and comfort. Sweeping dash makes the front interior feel very roomy. Back cargo compartment passed the "hockey bags" test.

Blows away the competition!

I have owned this car for a year and have loved every day of ownership. After a 4-month long investigation into every vehicle in the class (from Cadilac to Volvo) I settled on the B9 Tribeca and have not regretted the decision once. The B9 is a go anywhere car, with great flexability, tremendous comfort, and a look that will turn heads and garner approving nods. For anyone interested in a great vehicle verses a status symbol must go with the Subaru. Too bad Subaru made the 2008 model look like every other crossover on the road.

7 Passenger Limited. We Adore this Luxo crossover

This is our first full size SUV (crossover) and thanks to the Tribeca we are extrmely happy we moved up. I have been driving luxury sedans and my wife small SUVs for the last 9 years. We drove numerous luxury and full sized SUVs and cross overs, and fell in love with the Subaru. And it has not disappointed. After a couple of long trips and wife driving to and from work the Tribeca is a joy to drive. Extremely comfortable and rides great on highway and local roads. Getting about 19.5 - 20.5 mpgs city and highway combined. We adore the styling of the Tribeca and can't figure some of the bad press and change for 2008. The interior is a work of art with sweeping lines and the very secure and exciting feeling of being in an aircraft cockpit. Ask my daughter and she will tell you every time we walk up to the vehicle I get tingles and exholt - what a machine. The Tribeca just exudes quality. The vehicle has the quality of the Lexus and Acura's of the world, but for a good chunck less in price. We bought a 7 passenger limited with Nav system that works wonderfully. Can't say enough about how much we enjoy this (luxury) and versatile vehicle.

Wow, can't believe this is a Subaru

I woke up on Saturday and decided it was time to trade-in my Mini Coopers S for another car. Family is growing and realistically need something larger, safer, softer on the bumps... without sacrificing my sense of coolness (even though at this point, it's only wishful thinking). Well, saw an ad in paper, sounded too good to be true (and it was...but that is another story -bait & switch). Anyway, saw Tribeca from a distance and always liked it. Decided to take a closer look. All I can say is WOW! This is some car/SUV. I drove the 7 passenger limited w/ ALL bells & whistles. Incl: AWD, leather everything, Navigation, DVD Entertainment Center, rear camera view (comes on automatically when backing up - extremely cool). Interior styling is very high tech looking, seats are luxorious, DVD system comes with two wireless headphones - you can even play games. This car is loaded and well worth price. I thought I would have buyers remorse. Nope! Couldn't be happier with my decision. the Tribeca is stylish and has a look and feel of a very high end luxury crossover/SUV. This is a headturner, safe and cool.

Best Crossover out there....

My wife and I drove all of the new crossovers that are on the market. We felt the Tribeca and the Acadia were the two best on the market. We decided to buy the Tribeca because for the money it cant be beat. For a similar Acadia it would have been 10,000 more coming from the pocket book. We absolutely love this vehicle and would recommend this to anyone.

Safest Car I've ever owned

Only complaint about this car is the space for the third row seats. I am a long time Subaru owner so I may be biased. This vehicle rides extremely well and handles as well as any I've driven. I credit the VDC and great brakes with avoiding what I thought was a certain accident. I guess the exterior beauty is in the eye of the beholder; my wife loves it.

Luxury+Quality+Style=Tribeca

Test drove this vehicle and bought a 2007 the same day. Loved the interior design and exterior lines. The grille, I think, is one of its best traits, although looked down upon by many. It is an SUV of its own, and the fact that it may be different from others is what makes it stylish. I have taken this car on only one trip so far, and it has been a dream. It offers a smooth ride, great handling, and extreme comfort with its fully loaded options and features. I like the fact that not many people have it. It is a head turner, and I have had many compliments on it so far. I cant wait to get this baby out in the snow. I have no doubts that it will last me 10+ years. I recommend to anyone in the market for a luxury SUV. Although many think it is overpriced, I think you get a lot of bang for your buck- it is truly a wonderful vehicle.
