What happened here?

The brand is quite reliable so there aren't lots of folks posting problems/issues seeking help ;-)

So the brand was not very reliable when the message traffic on this group was huge?

You must be an absolute joy to live with...

There is the new Subaru electric Solterra EV. Then there are the new Wilderness models.

I am trying ...

The stated range is only 220 miles.

The front end looks funky. Is that where they keep the hamster?

Modelled after Darth Vader?

I was just citing what I had heard what is new. Does not mean it appeals to me.

I certainly would not pay over $10,000 more for an EV that does not even have the range to take me to a friends hunting camp.

Thread prompted me to look at local inventories and they are zilch with some dealers having only a few Outbacks available at only the high end. Apparently the chip shortage has impacted Subaru in a big way. I am glad I am not in the market for a new car.

I participate on a coupla Forums, ultimatesubaru.org and subaruoutback.org . Even they have reduced traffic as I think many folks find Facebook or other more popular places.
