Second Outback that I have had

This is the second Outback that I have leased from Tom Wood Subaru. First class auto with a great sales experience (Tony Birsfield) and fast service (only needed routine maintenance).

My 15th Subaru

This is our 15th Subaru since 1986 and by far the best one. They really upped there game with the 2020 Touring XT model. Fabulous vehicle.

Not bad so far, but not amazing

Love all the normal things about the Outback. My biggest hesitation is that the turbo is good once you get going. The lag in acceleration shows the lack of pedigree for this type of engine. Second biggest gripe - too many ways to control my driving experience - braking, lane control, beeping, blinking lights, controlling the steering - enough already!

This car will last me for the rest of my life!

The Outback is comfortable, reliable, and very safe. At this stage and age that's exactly what I need. The number of safety features plus the all wheel drive makes it the best deal in town. What other cars add on and charge you for......Subaru provides most of them even in the base model.

New car

Excellent so far, but it's only been 4 days, it has so many nice features that was not available when I purchased my 2013. Can't wait to take a little road trip next week with a couple of friends for a luncheon date.

Everything we have come to like about owning a Subaru. Comfort, reliability and safety are important to us and the added style of the 2020 Outback is a bonus.

Great safety features!

First Subaru we’ve owned and we love it. It’s under a month old so we don’t have long term experience in it but so fat it’s been wonderful.
