Subaru recently announced plans for a new seven-passenger vehicle in the United States. There have been rumors of a “Grand Outback”, that would essentially be an upsized version of the super popular Outback. While the specifics about the design and layout haven't been released, Subaru has confirmed that there will be a new seven-passenger Subaru and it will be larger than the discontinued Tribeca. 

The company recently unveiled a new seven-passenger vehicle that will be sold exclusively in Japan - the Exiga Crossover 7.  While it’s unlikely that we will see the Exiga here in the states, it could…

1. The Subaru of Indiana Automotive plant has zero landfill status. That means nothing from the plant’s manufacturing process enters landfills. Not only does Subaru’s Indiana plant have zero landfill status, but also it was the first auto plant ever to achieve this status.

It's no secret that the folks in Colorado are fond of Subarus. But when you factor in the state's mountain terrain with frequent inclement weather, Subaru seems to be the perfect choice of vehicle.

There's a joke that Subaru is the state car of Colorado. Each of the 50 states has a state flower, a state bird, a state tree, and lots of other state things, but none of the states actually has an official state vehicle. Saying that Subaru is the state car has always been more of a humorous acknowledgement that Subarus are extremely common…

Accessories might seem like unnecessary luxuries or trivial trinkets, but accessories are more than that. True, a steering wheel cover or a novelty shift knob are both unnecessary and trivial, but those aren't the kinds of accessories we're talking about here. 

If you could add something to your Subaru that would make it last longer, make your driving experience better, or make it easier to do the things that you love to do, wouldn't you do it? That’s exactly what Subaru accessories have to offer.

The Pleiades constellation, also known as the seven sisters, is a beautiful and well-known, cluster of stars. In fact, many people are more familiar with this constellation than they realize. Sure, this star cluster can be picked out of the night sky from nearly any point on the planet, but you also probably see it on roads and highways on a fairly regular basis. Subaru’s iconic star logo is a representation of the Pleiades constellation.

In Greek mythology, the Pleiades were seven daughters of Atlas. Atlas was the big guy who held the world up on his shoulders. Literally…

Cake or pie? Puppy or kitten? Yellowstone or Yosemite? Legacy or Impreza? How are you supposed to decide between two great things? Whenever faced with a hard decision, no matter how wonderful the outcome, the trick is to get all of the facts and weigh those against your needs and preferences. Only then can you make those tough choices.

The 2015 Subaru Legacy and 2015 Subaru Impreza are both great vehicles with a lot to offer. If you're trying to decide between these two cars, you need to know what makes each of them special. Here's a look…

When the weather starts to heat up, do you blast the A/C or do you roll the windows down? Maybe you just sweat it out because you are worried about the effect that either option will have on your gas mileage. You might be able to hold out during the spring, while the temperatures are still manageable, but when summer rolls around you're going to have to deal with the heat one way or another. But which is the better option? 

The argument for using air conditioning or dropping your windows usually boils down to fuel economy. People…

Cell phones are pretty amazing. You can contact anyone from anywhere. If you want to listen to a song that's been stuck in your head, all you have to do is search for it. You can even hop into your car and drive to a completely new town that you've never been to without doing any planning whatsoever. There's no need to do research or have any connections; you can just go. There’s boundless information online, and you can access all of that information from your phone.

Unfortunately, humans only have two eyes and a single…

Spring is a great time to go camping. It’s warmer than winter, yet cooler than summer. You get to enjoy spring blooms without the thickets of poison ivy that come later in the year, and you don’t yet have to worry about mosquitoes and other obnoxious insects. So make a point to get out this spring and do some camping!

While testing your mettle on an extended backpacking trip can be a lot of fun, car camping is sometimes a better option if you're short on time or bringing small children. You can't beat a Subaru…

Some people love driving, and when they take a road trip, they relish every second behind the wheel. Others find driving to be a burdensome necessity that occurs between the places where you would actually like to spend your time. If you belong to the latter group, you can probably think back to a time when you were just over a drive. You had been behind the wheel for ten hours, still had another eight to go, and wished for a button you could push that would get you to your destination. Or maybe you wished that the car would…
