It's a Friday night and you’re trying to think of something for you and your family to do. You want something that's fun for all ages, not too rambunctious, but not too tame either. Maybe something fresh and exciting that you don't normally do. Why not mix it up by taking your family to the drive-in movie theater? 

Drive-in movie theaters aren’t new by any means, but since they’ve fallen out of fashion, it’s probably been a while since you’ve visited one. Maybe some of your family members haven’t ever been…

Travelling to Italy is a bucket list regular. In 2013, Italy had 47.7 million visitors, making it the fifth most visited country in the world. Whether it’s the history, the culture, the architecture, or the food, Italy has something for everyone. But be careful on the roads if you’re heading to Italy, especially in the southern region.

According to an article from the Telegraph, a new regulation allows drivers in the Avellino region to consume as many as 8 glasses of wine, and escape with a just small fine if pulled over.

What do you know about the Subaru WRX? If your answer is, "It's fast, and it wins a lot of races because it's fast," you're not alone. The WRX has a reputation for speed and performance, especially when compared to the rest of the Subaru lineup, but there's more to the WRX than flat out speed. Like all Subaru vehicles, the WRX is also incredibly safe and great for families.

Safety isn’t the first thing that comes to mind with a car that has a 268 horsepower engine that can go from zero to sixty…

People don’t always consider the hazards that can come from summer driving. After all, the things that make driving dangerous happen in the winter, right? Frozen roads, heavy snows, and all of that. While you're safe from icy freeways during the hot summer months, summer presents a number of other hazards for drivers, and the fact that you might not be expecting these hazards can make them even more dangerous.

Over the years, Subaru has been known for a lot of different things. The first Subaru brought over to the US in the 1960s was marketed as "cheap and ugly." This earned Subaru a reputation as being a little peculiar to say the least. The next thing Subaru became known for was All-Wheel Drive and Safety. Subaru vehicles were, and still are expected, to handle any type of terrain and weather condition, and provide unrivaled safety. Now, the manufacturer is earning a solid reputation for environmental stewardship. 

Back in 2004, Subaru decided that they were producing too much waste at…

Chances are you haven't given much thought to your timing belt. You might not even know what a timing belt is, for that matter. And why should you? Unless you work on vehicles, or you’ve had to replace a timing belt in the past, it’s not something that comes up very often. Unlike the tires on your Subaru that should be rotated every 7,500 miles, or your oil that should be changed at that same mileage (if you’re using synthetic oil), timing belts don't require such frequent service.

Less frequent maintenance doesn't mean…

Keeping your family safe is important to you. That’s one of the reasons you bought a Subaru. Every vehicle in the Subaru lineup has earned a Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for six years straight. Subaru is the only auto manufacturer that can make that claim. But sometimes it takes more than just owning a safe vehicle to ensure that your kids stay safe. Here are some tips for keeping your child safe in the car.

You've probably heard of the dog days of summer. The phrase refers to the hottest time of the summer season, and while it conjures images of panting dogs and heat haze, the term isn’t really related to dogs in the way that you might think. In ancient Greece, "dog days" indicated the period surrounding the time in which Sirius, or the Dog Star, would align with the sun. This is typically between early July and mid-August. 

That being said, the dog days of summer are extremely hot, and you should take extra care to keep your dogs safe…

When you love your vehicle, you don't have to look for an excuse to plop down in the driver's seat (Subarus are great, we know how you feel). But even the most fuel-efficient vehicles have a negative impact on the environment. Sometimes you can’t avoid driving, but a lot of the miles you’re putting on your vehicle might not be necessary. Driving less can be good for you, the environment, and for your vehicle.

If you work 30 miles away from home, or you want to visit your family in the next state over, or you…

If someone asked you, "What U.S. town has the highest percentage of Subaru vehicles?" what would your guess be? Maybe Denver? Possibly Portland? Could it be Seattle? Those are all good guesses (though none of them are No. 1), but no matter what your answer is, you’re probably making that guess based on the city's close proximity to outdoor recreation, and reputation for environmentalism. Those are, after all, two of the big values Subaru owners hold dear. 

So which towns have the highest percentage of Subaru owners? 

According to the Nielson Scarborough market-research firm, these are the…
