I’ve had mine for about 6 weeks and I can’t find anything that I don’t like about it. It has plenty of power to take me and my music and hunting gear anywhere I want to go. My friends have BMW’s and Infinity X-60’s and one Mercedes and they like taking my car when we go out, even if I’m not the DD. It’s a comfort issue. One of the X-60 guys is buying a Crosstrek and a Lexus driver as well !!! That speaks volumes

Crosstreks catch my eye on the road everyday. Love the way they look and the colors they come in. The blue.. The orange... And everytime I see another color I like it just the same. Nice to see the review I was wondering about the interior.

While researching wether or not the Crosstrek was the right vehicle for me. I'll have to say this review was what sold me. I ordered a Limited in black. Picking it up from the dealership tomorrow morning! I plan to do some similar mods. Thanks for the in depth and practical review. I'm sure I will be referring back to your install videos in the near future.

I have a 15 Crosstrek & just recently put Continental Terraincontact A/T's on it, have about 200 miles on them so far & I have alway's wanted a more aggressive tire for it especially for the winter time. I went up to 225/60/17 from the stock 225/55/17 & they fit fine, the reviews have been good on them! Power has never been a issue for me, even in the Mountains of Colorado!

I purchased the 2018 Outback about the same time you bought your Crosstrek. I have ZERO complaints. Great review!

Yeah, we picked up a 2018 crosstrek two months ago, my wife LOVES this car. I do want to want to put in a lift kit. Your car looks great.

Found this video looking at crosstrek videos because I'm considering buying one, and I must say thank you for you calm demeanor, well spoken vocabulary, and very informative review of the vehicle. You gave me every bit of info I was looking for in a review and more with you mods. GREAT REVIEW, SUBSCRIBED NOW THANKS

Just bought my brand new 2018 Subaru Crosstrek in Orange and I love it. I am already thinking of future modifications. I have heard similar complaints about the power, but for those people I say get a sports car for that. It helps me feel good that people are loving their Crosstreks because this is literally the first car I've owned. Thanks for sharing what you did to yours.

New first-time Subaru owner here, just bought a 2019 Crosstrek with 28,000 miles on it three weeks ago. Absolutely falling in love with this car! Base model totally stock pretty much for the moment. only initial change I'm planning is to try and grab a tiny bit more horsepower, 5 to 10 would probably be enough. Looking at an AEM Dryflow air filter and either a header back or cat back exhaust improvement.

You are so right about people complaining about how slow the car is and do not own one. So true. The car is completely able to do what you need to do in traffic, on the highway etc. Correct about the break in as well. Cheers for another great video.

I almost bought one of these a few years ago. I agree with the review in the fact that they are wonderful vehicles and I liked the styling and comfort. However I passed on it because it just did not have enough power... or at least doesn't handle the environment I live in well. Steep mountain roads (high altitude) are not what this is suited for. I think if Subaru put a stronger engine in it, they would have a killer combo.

Thank you very much! The wife and I have been looking at these for a couple years and are about to pull the trigger! I think your video set the target! Thanks again.

I owned 3 underpowered Subaru's myself and can really conform that they are nog slow and offer the best traction just thanks to that. All wheel drive just seemed to put all of the power on the ground and even my diesel powered Volvo with 100 hp more was not noticebly faster. Reality is more important than specs. Love the mods except for the mudflaps. Super video , enjoy the subby.

I agree! I recently picked up a 2017 premium and I really enjoy it. The trek feels more controlled, and honestly feels like it has more power then any other stock n/a SUV I've driven

I own a 2018 Crosstrek as well. I drove that bad boy for 5 hours during a blizzard in Minnesota, basically for the hell of it. It handled like a boss! I swear to god, there was no fear in me while piloting my Crosstrek. It handled smooth, couldn't get stuck, even in a reasonable amount of snow, I was basically unstoppable. I was doing 60mph on the freeway (both hands on the wheel) and it was like carving through butter!

I want a crosstrek so bad. Sticking with my Impreza hatchback for a while until I can invest in a crosstrek. Thanks for the links. I will definitely be saving all these for future reference ❤️

Great video, really has me thinking about the crosstrek in a totally different light. I love what you're doing with it.

I drove a stock one with a manual one time. I was really excited to drive it! I thought it would be so much fun and seeing yours lifted with sweet tires is sick!

Buying this car in a couple months and couldn’t really find anything concerning modifications, this video helped so much!! Honestly feel more confident in my choice after this, have a good one!

I am going to get a 2019 Crosstrek in February and I am so excited about this review. I will be doing pretty low miles driving except to go once in a awhile out of town to camp. I love the look of the car and I am getting a color I love called "cool grey Kahki". I think it is fine. I have been driving Rav 4 for the past 6 years and have loved them but just felt the ned for a change and the higher miles per gallon are very attractive. Thanks for the review. I am ever more pleased with my choice of a Crosstrek.

You have no idea how helpful these reviews on your Crosstrek are 😁

i just picked up a 2018 crosstrek as my DD. I have a 2017 sti as well. I went with the 2018 becuase i wanted a six speed manual in an suv... pretty much unheard of these days. also the 2018 model has 1st and 2nd gear much shorter than in previous years. I also only paid $20k out the door for mine...also unheard of these days for a brand new suv. that was a great review. i totally agree about how the subarus totally change after the break in. my sti and crosstrek's clutch was really touchy for the first 1k miles. both seemed a bit under powered as well. after that break in the crosstrek has a lot more pick up and shifts so much smoother. Sti was the same thing. I like the lifted look of our crosstrek and i agree about the tint. I drove my sti off the lot and went straight to the tint show with it. since i bought my crosstrek the sti has pretty much sat in the garage. i love driving it but after driving the crosstrek i thought i had a couple flat tires in my sti..the suspension is so tight on back roads.

I never thought I'd buy a Subaru but I could see being a Subaru guy for the rest of my days. Thanks for the great review. BTW - Quartz Blue Pearl. Gorgeous!

The best dang review on the new trek!!!

I'm glad you said That about the car learning. I have a 2.5 Outback and people complain left and right how slow and sluggish it is. I have been told I would never be able to oass anyone or get up and down big hills quickly and In in the exact same boat as you. I have found no issues with get up and go for what it is. If I wanted a powerhouse I would have bought an STI

I had a 2014 Crosstrek. I LOVED everything about the car BUT the power. I installed a K&N drop in air filter and a Borla axel back exhaustion and gained about 2hp. After the break in (I did do it right not going over 5000 rpm) the power was better, but I felt like I was thrashing the poor thing on the highway. Passing was the biggest problem. I WAS able to get the handling great by adding just a strut tower brace up front and a rear subframe power brace. I DID love the looks and room the car offered. I did have the CVT with the paddle shifters that I used pretty much all the time. I traded the Crosstrek in on a 2017 WRX Base. I have to say I am much happier with the WRX. I also own a 2016 Forester. If the Crosstrek had the same power as the Forester, I would most likely still have it. Your 18 Crosstrek looks VERY NICE. Glad you enjoy it....

Thank you for the update man! Also thanks for replying to my tweet about your Crosstrek asking about it :p

Your car looks great man! I have a 2013 Subaru Forester, Limited. I put a 2 inch lift on it from King Springs which increases the suspension travel as well as lift the car, instead of just lifting it and using the stock springs. Big time advantage for wheel articulation. I also put BFG T/A KO2 tires on mine: 225/75/17 tire size. I kept my stock wheels for a cost savings. It looks sick, and the off road performance was massively improved. In January of 2016 there was a big snow storm in the northeast which put feet of snow on the roads. I had no trouble getting around, even on roads that had yet to be plowed. This car pushes through the snow and mud like it was on dry pavement. I couldn't be happier. By the way, to accommodate the larger tires, even with the lift, I also had to do some minor modifications to the wheel well to ensure that there would be no rubbing. Now though, I have full wheel articulation at maximum turning radius with no rubbing.

I've been planning to get the Limited model with the Eyesight Driver assist package and Auto-dimming rear-view mirror. Those are the only two things I really plan to get due to cost but I feel those are the most essential I need. Again, great video!

hsn t Anyting over 87 octane, or regular fuel, in a non-turbo Subaru motor is just fattening oil companies wallets and potentially hurting fuel economy since higher octane has less energy density. The only reason for higher octane fuel is if you have high compression engines or turbocharged engines where pinging could occur on lower octane.

Welcome to the channel 👍🏻

On California roads a Ferrari and a Prius goes about the same speed 90% of the time,,,,, 5 miles an hour :D leave the 0-6 times in the drag strip on the road the 0-60 times are useless :D

I have an fbo e85 2017 Mustang GT and I’m currently in LA. And yeah I pretty much have this car for nothing. All those ponies with no room to stretch the legs. LA is one of the worlds biggest parking lots

Why didnt you go with the 6 speed manual?

@@TalonSei But a 6-spd Man would be sweet as Hell, I love my 5 but... When the time Comes I'll upgrade to the 6... In the Crosstrek, this is my forever car, Zero buyers remorse! Just doen't haul as much as the F-150 I traded it for... lol.... which 95% of the time only hauled my fat ass to work in the City... ;)

Nice video. I just purchased one last night. I totaled my 2016 Impereza Sport Premium (hit a tree at ~ 30-35 mph and WALKED AWAY!). I can't wait to pick it up next week. Might go for the light bar idea as I drive in Maine a lot (critters). I'll be putting Michelin Winter X snow tires on ASAP. Had them on the Impreza for 3 weeks before the accident and they were solid in the little bit of snow I drove them in. Most of my "off-roading" happens in the Sunday River parking lot or on the local streets near Boston.

A smart young man, great communication skills. Really enjoyed the video, am looking at Subaru right now this was helpful

JohnnyRebel: Yeah, I do about 3,200 per month. I'm really interested in the Crosstrek, but wonder what those MPG and maintenance/repair numbers would look like.

damn dude should have gotten the 6spd manual

If I decide to get one it will definitely be the 6 speed, though it dose concern me a bit that the advertised MPG is about 5 less with the manual.

I have my 6 speed now for just about 3 weeks but I drive a lot PA to NYC everyday.I already have 3400 miles on it and like what was said in the comments depending on how you drive I'm averaging some where around 32-33mpg. Not bad at all for a AWD vehicle. Better than my 13 Scion TC that I just parked with 233000 miles on the clock.

Loving the crosstrek videos homie 🤙

Just get it tuned.. Tire size problem solved.

Oreo Cat No. It's not. If he would have went with 35s then yes. You can recalibrate the speedo based on the stock gear and new tire size with HP Tuners. But thanks for the lesson.

I’m waiting for someone to pump 500+ hp into it

Just found you because of your Crosstrek. Wouldn't mind picking one up and lifting also. Also nice to see a fellow PA res that has a following. Subbed!

Man you are good! You know your stuff thanks for all the info. I made up my mind because of you, Crosstrek is in my future!

You mention your gas mileage after the wheels & tires, but not what it was stock! I'm trying to figure out how much it will go down.

My stock 18 crosstrek is getting around 31-32mpg of mixed, but mostly highway driving. On a long highway drive (7.5hrs 460mi) I got almost 35mpg and managed it on one tank. that was also through several mountain passes. Mine is a 6-speed manual though, so not sure what the CVT would get. The manual is great though, don't get a CVT.
