We know how important the environment is to Subaru owners, and it's important to us as well. We've only got one Earth, so we have to take care of it. We must do everything we can to limit the impact that we make on the environment, and we must do our best to preserve the beauty that nature has to offer.

Businesses, especially manufacturers, have a greater impact on the environment than most individuals do. That's why Subaru started the Subaru Eco-Friendly Retailer Program. 

The Subaru Eco-Friendly Retailer Program is designed to help Subaru dealers reduce carbon…

Many Subaru fans look forward to two events during the course of the year. Those events are Christmas and the announcement of the new Subaru Forester. The Forester is the most popular vehicle in the Subaru lineup, and the 2016 Subaru Forester looks to be just as good as it’s ever been.

Pricing and specs were released for the new Forester last month. The 2016 Forester will continue with the fourth-generation design that was introduced with the 2014 model. The 2016 Forester 2.5i base model will start with an MSRP of $22,395, a slight increase over last…

We all know what a speed limit sign is. It’s the maximum speed at which you're allowed to go on a particular road. If you drive faster than the speed limit, you might get pulled over and handed a ticket. But a speed limit is just that, right? It’s a limit, a speed that you cannot go over. You can drive as slow as you want to drive as long as you're under the speed limit, right?

Well, that's not the case in more than half of the United States. 38 states, including the state…

Fireworks may get top billing on Independence Day, but we can't forget the 4th of July parade!

The Rodeo of the Ozarks parade begins at 10:00 on Independence Day at the Rodeo grounds in Springdale and will meander through town with horses, floats, and bands. Bentonville is holding a Kids Bike Parade on the Square.

The nation's oldest 4th of July parade is in Bristol, Rhode Island, where they will be holding their 230th consecutive Independence Day parade this year. Maybe. The annual celebration began in 1785, but it's not known exactly when the military exercises…

At first glance, you might not think that Subaru and Ferrari have much in common. Subaru makes vehicles that are known for safety and outdoor adventures, while Ferrari makes cars that are known for their blistering speed on straightaways. Whenever you think of Ferrari, you think of red race cars. When you think of Subaru, you think of roof racks and dirt roads. Ferrari has always been regarded as stunning, while Subaru has been noted as quirky. However, both auto manufacturers are renowned for their quality. Quality aside, the two auto manufacturers do have something else in common. 

Both Subaru…

Subaru's assembly plant in Lafayette Indiana became the first auto manufacturing plant in North America to achieve zero-landfill status. Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA) achieved zero-landfill status back in 2004, and for the past decade has not contributed any waste to landfills.

Most households can’t say that they haven't contributed to a landfill in the past ten years, so this is an incredible accomplishment for a factory that manufactures thousands of vehicles every year.

The Indiana plant didn't reach zero-landfill status as a requirement, or to appeal to the public. Subaru challenged Subaru Indiana Automotive to…

They take a number of factors into account, focusing on those which parents and families would be most interested in. Factors such as how much a vehicle costs, the fuel efficiency, the number of seats, the storage capacity, and, of course, how safe a vehicle is are all considered when choosing the best family vehicles. 

You can't pick your family vehicle like you pick out a pair of socks in the morning. You…

How often should you rotate the tires on your Subaru? Subaru recommends that you rotate your tires every 7,500 miles. That's roughly the same time that you would want to get your oil changed if you use synthetic motor oil. So that's typically a good reminder for rotating our tires. If you get your oil changed, see if you need to get your tires rotated.

Of course, 7,500 miles is just guideline recommendation. How often you drive, the conditions you drive in, the way that you drive, and the roads that you drive on are all…
