Great vehicle

My wife researched vehicles prior to our move from Missouri to Idaho. She selected this vehicle for us. I am glad that she did so. I do have a few comments as well. The voice recognition on the navigation system is just about useless, so if I am moving, I cannot use voice commands to help me navigate. Hopefully, this has been improved since 2016. In many other applications from 2016, including medical dictation, voice recognition powered by Dragon Naturally Speaking, does a far better job of converting the spoken work to commands.

Outback 3.6 rocks!

This vehicle has excellent acceleration, handles all road conditions with ease, and has all the bells and whistles, plus safety features you could ever want.

My 2016 Outback is a great vehicle

I love my Outback. It's solid, quick and has a very tight turning radius. It's sure footed in the snow and comfortable on long and short rides. Visibility and lighting promotes safety. I recommend the Outback to friends and family.

Love our 2016 Outback 3.6 Limited

Great car, Premium level model, graphite metallic gray, very comfortable, 23+ mpg combined usage just in Boise metro area. Overall it’s been a great car over the past 5 years we’ve owned the car. The 3.6 V6 is a great engine for this car.

Best car I have ever owned

This is my second Outback and there will definitely be a third. I love everything about it. I travel a lot and bring all of my toys( kayak, bicycle camping gear). I love the movable roof rack. 32.5 average gas mileage. Handling is great. It is just a fun car to drive, I love the way it looks too.

Luv my car❤️

AWD and fuel efficiency are great. All in one beautiful green package. This is my third Subaru and I consider it one of the most dependable brand around. It’s great for road trips and driving in bad weather conditions.

LOVE my Subaru

I've had them all, Dodge, Chevrolet, Ford, Nissan, Oldsmobile. Toyota, and Honda, and my Subaru is hands down the very best! Fun to drive, easy to handle, roomy but compact. Great great car. Bought it used but it seemed brand new.

Love my Subie

We are very happy with our 2016 Outback 3.6L Limited. Driven only 13,250 miles so far but it’s stayed fresh looking, great condition inside and out, and a joy to drive. I love the 3.6 engine over the PZEV four cylinder and I’ve gotten a combined mpg of just over 23 mpg-almost all in town miles.

Great Vehicle

Needed a practical, comfortable, economical car as we have retired. It has hit well on all points. Got the premium model with Eye Sight. Love the adaptive cruise control and blind spot monitor. The controls are easy to use, seats are exceptionally comfortable. Has a lot of room for passengers and cargo. All wheel drive improves safety in rain and snow. Only negative, had to replace battery as it is too small, had to jump start a couple times, replaced with larger size, no more issues.It is no wonder Subaru is selling as many Outbacks they can build, great vehicle.

Subaru 2016

Good car for any driving condition. Great handling. Ease of entering or leaving the car. Great ease and roominess for loading merchandise. Like the hands off lift tailgate. Eyesight and blind spot recognition is awesome.

My 2015 Subaru Outback

I love the way the vehicle drives and operates. It is the most fun vehicle that I have recently owned and has taken me to and from Kansas City Missouri three times as I was relocating and later fulfulling a temporary work assignment. I have received service at three dealerships and all have been excellent. Parker Subaru is at the top of the list. I do need to mention some things that should be improved. The visibility of the clock is poor, the speech recognition is comical and the GPS is worse than Google Maps, Microsoft Bing Maps or Waze. I would also like to see a Heads-Up display for GPS and some other features. Some of these can be corrected with new ROM software and use the same hardware. The HUD would require hardware or link to a cell phone and a semi-reflective sticker for the windshield. One more issue is that EyeSight will give you a "not working" message when you need it most. Perhaps combining visual light with radar detection (Toyota uses radar) would provide the ideal system for lane control and adaptive speed control. I wonder if when eyesight is off line, does the collision avoidance system still work.

Reliable, comfortable and economical car.

I'm very happy with my 2016 Outback. Great highway traveler, yet well able to handle back roads. I recommend the Outback to friends and family. Love the Venetian Red color. When we take long trips, the Outback is the car of choice.

A Great Car!!

After 2 1/2 years and 28,000 miles later, we would buy the exact same car again. Everyone seems to understand how good the Subaru's are in snow and mud, but little is said about how great they are in wet, rainy conditions...they are fabulous, really holds the road nicely. I am 6'6" and I have plenty of head and leg room. The seats are also very comfortable for me. As 2 older adults the car sits up off the ground at a very nice level for both my wife and I without causing back issues while entering or exiting the car. The Outback works great for us because it is very easy to load and unload various size items from the back. We bought our car through the Costco car purchase program. Costco recommended Falcone Subaru in Indianapolis. It was the easiest, simplest and best buying experience that either have ever had when buying a car.
