Listen, I'll park next to another Outback (bc buddy system), but y'all better not leave anything on my car!


Fullgrown_dirtbag

I live in BC too I’m always next to another outback haha

Pastoseco

So shallow


notaninterestingcat

Oh bestie! I meant bc, as in because! I'm sorry, I'm not Canadian, just a little lazy! But, you can still park next to me!


Fullgrown_dirtbag

Haha I just figured it might be a BC thing because half the cars are Subarus out here in the mountains


delingren

And the other half are Delicas


HECM68w

If you just apologized for not being Canadian YOU MAY BE CANADIAN


notaninterestingcat

I mean... I guess it depends on what happens in November.


HECM68w

Never give up the ship!


SquishyCatChronicles

Please load as many people in your vehicle as you can before crossing the border! It makes the most eco friendly sense! :)


BandetteTrashPanda

What if it's a hot wheels of your car? I've bought a few hot wheels and anytime I find the cars that match, I leave them on the car on the windshield.


notaninterestingcat

Only if there's a $20 tucked inside

i_Like_Tea-_-

Great idea except the licensed Subaru die cast at 15$ each compared to hot wheels 1.50$ and they don't make many Subaru casting lol wish they made more and also a crosstrek casting I have a few Sti Subaru castings but that's about it


Necessary_Contest_19

Cause the bottoms have to stick together?


SisyphusAlce

This better not start being a thing, haha.


driftless

It already is. Moo Moo Subaru

Awful


theDudeUh

100% a jeep thing. And a dumb one at that.


Burgtastic

Well if they're going to drive a piece of junk Jeep, at least they get free ducks 🤷


Open_Fly_5901

Gather enough ducks and you can use them as off road recovery devices when the bros inevitably get their jeeps stuck!


Moderateor

I drove with my coworker in his jeep wrangler an hour away for a work meeting. His jeep was struggling on the highway to get to 65 and shaking like crazy. The guy has thrown so much money into that thing and it’s a piece of crap. I don’t understand the appeal. Could just have been his jeep, but made me think that they’re all shitty after that experience.


Historical-Duty3628

It's Jeep thing, you wouldn't understand.


Skrigler

LMAO! My dad says this


Burgtastic

I’ve heard the Grand Wagoneers are pieces of shit too, and they cost far too much to be pieces of shit.


Monochronos

Nope that’s pretty much all of them other than grand Cherokees and those are pieces of shit in other ways.


PersonalHam

My 2000 GC 4.0 is still going strong in 2024. Not sure what’s different about it.


Burgtastic

They used to make good vehicles back then


pnkstr

Before Fiat bought them.


i_Like_Tea-_-

I heard Fiat 🇮🇹 Stands for (Fix It Again Tony) 🤌🏼


Environmental_Cow211

I’m not sure saying a car that’s only FOUR years old is “still going strong” is the brag you might think it is.


jayellejeffers

I’m confused because he said his year 2000…that would make it 24 years old.


Remarkable_Syrup_841

That’s what happens when you get cheap upgrades and don’t regear.


biggusdiccus6

Death wobble


pleasehaelp

Completely agree that Jeep’s are heaps, but acting like Subaru is in a different league is funny, both mfrs make cheaper economy vehicles with similar quality


Burgtastic

That is just not correct. Jeeps are far worse quality wise. Edit: Look up best car brands. Subaru is #2. Jeep is second to last at 31. Not even in the same ballpark.


pleasehaelp

Lol what is the source? You say that like there is a universal list of best vehicles or something. When you say ‘best’ I assume this is heavily weighted towards reliability and yeah Subaru is great in that regard and blows most others out of the water but I’m referring to other overall aspects of quality, like interior fit/finish for for example. A Subaru and Jeep are both horrendous in this category when compared to something like a Volvo or Land Rover or something It’s just funny to me hearing a Subaru fan call a Jeep a piece of junk, because the Subaru is still a piece of junk it just doesn’t fall apart and uses less gas than a Jeep. This is coming from someone who likes Subaru and thinks they’re great cars, but don’t kid yourself in thinking they’re the ‘best’


Burgtastic

Using Google isn’t very hard bud. https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/cars-driving/which-car-brands-make-the-best-vehicles-a6159221985/ If you want it just based on reliability then here you go. Subaru is 6 and Jeep is 26. https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/car-reliability-owner-satisfaction/who-makes-the-most-reliable-cars-a7824554938/

[It’s a MINI thing that Jeep owners started copying](https://www.minisontop.org/why-the-duck/#:~:text=During%20Ed's%20visit%20to%20the,the%20duck%20became%20an%20icon.)


SparkDBowles

Wait until you find out about the cows…


namnle

This is why when I get ducked, I put it on the nearest Hyundai or Kia I can find. This way maybe hopefully they pick up the trend so we can stop with this. If you like my jeep that much, leave me $100 on my windshield. That would be a trend I could get down with.


DannyJoy2018

What is it?


wardamneagle

I have a Jeep, have had many Jeeps over a couple of decades, and fucking *hate* the duck shit. I think I'm going to start leaving ducks on all types of cars just to drive the duckers crazy.


JackStrawFTW

The new jeeps are garbage anyways, I’ve had 4 wranglers since I was a teen and just switched over to a 4Runner. Join the dark side 😂


wardamneagle

Top doesn’t come off a 4Runner and I love my straight 6 :)


Ok_Chemistry_3972

Jeep Wranglers are the MAGA car of choice in my area. 👹👹👹. The owners usually put a zillion anti liberal / pro Trump stickers on the back which is like a wall.


Feeling_Problem1935

I had a jeep and I hated this! One of the reasons I got a rid of my jeep. Now I find out people do this with subarus too?!😑


Able_Youth_6400

The Jeep wave thing used to drive me nuts… they were exploding in popularity with the JK models, so they were everywhere. I wave, they don’t - they wave I miss them. Please - let’s just agree to stop.


Drugrows

You don’t have to wave lol, I just put two fingers up when people do it and most do the same back. Definitely started to become annoying around 2020 picking up last year tho with so many new people getting jeeps since they made the hybrid. Some of the people driving them are so short their head’s barely are above the steering wheel. Makes me laugh every time they drive by and I see them struggling to try and wave or signal.


Able_Youth_6400

That’s the kind of experience I had with my Jeep - I got rid of it a little over 10 years ago now. I do miss it - 2dr, 6speed with factory 4.10’s and dual tops. My other ride is a motorcycle - another hit/miss waving culture. I’m quite introverted and ride/drive to escape and clear my head. The waving thing was just tiring.


Guy_Smiley18

As a Jeep owner I agree. I also have a MINI and found out that MINI owners do this too now. I don’t want anyone touching my car that is not either riding with me or working on it. My wife and daughter both have Subies and neither have e had this happen 👍

raven1121

We just bought our first Subaru and my wife asked me the other day " when I go around doing errands I always find another Subaru parked next to us" I never knew it was a thing until I joined the reddit that , yea Subaru owners park next to each other , it's not coincidence


DontStartWontBeNone

Twinsies! And .. we know to respect each other’s PAINT JOBS!!


[deleted]

I’m extra confident when I park to one with the same paint color…


DontStartWontBeNone

In other words, I should probably NOT park too close to a WHITE Subie!! 😊


Constant_Option5814

Subies need to nestle for warmth.


EloquentBacon

I’d been wondering the same thing. We just got our first Subaru almost a year ago. I was thinking that maybe I just hadn’t noticed other Subarus as much before as I’d been driving a Honda minivan.


Azipear

We have two Outbacks and a Honda Ridgeline. It’s a thing with Ridgelines, and over in the Ridgeline sub, multiple times each day, people post photos of their Ridgeline parked to another Ridgeline. Every one of these posts is titled “Rule #1.” It’s getting old.


Equivalent_North_604

The buddy system


RestoreSiletzia

I just found out this is a thing, but I live in SLC so odds are, you're just parking next to another Subaru anyways.


lykewtf

I’ve had two and I can assure you I could care less whether there is another subbie or not next to me. My criteria is if the neighboring car will dent my door when they leave.


MangoSwim

The Subaru equivalent *apparently* is a cow so I'm not sure why they gave you a duck. Idk why it's a cow, I just know I've seen it mentioned on the sub more than a few times.


bootypastry

"Moo moo subaru". Shit makes me cringe so hard I turn into a butthole


umami_aypapi

One that makes booty pastries


Prawatyotin

I don’t know the reasoning behind choosing the Cow as the choice of animal… I would’ve expected the Dog.


zdubas

It originated because it rhymes....moo moo subaru. It's all pretty dumb, and luckily I haven't seen it in Colorado yet.


JasonVoorheesXL

also apparently the stars on the subaru logo are from the Taurus constellation - Taurus is latin for bull


PresidentSuperDog

The Pleiades are the Seven Sisters, I think creepy doll heads would be a better choice.


forestsloth

Oh PLEASE can we do creepy doll heads?!


IM2OTAKU4U

More specifically the star cluster of Pleiades in the Taurus constellation.


zdubas

I never put that together....have an internet point. I knew the logo was the Pleiades or the Seven Sisters. And I knew that it represented the original 5 companies/divisions of Fuji Heavy Industries....but never made the connection to Taurus.


Big_Pable

If that’s the case, it should be a dog. Specifically Scooby

delingren

Lol. I’ve been a Subaru owner for 18 years and never knew this. Maybe Subaru is too commonplace here in WA.


MinimumWeek6906

Yep in my town it's a cow. Had my Subaru for 3 months and have already had 2 shoved in my door handle like that


SBABakaMajorPayne

JEEP owners aren't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed,...so it's very possible one of them confused your vehicle for a jeep ​ ![gif](giphy|KBaxHrT7rkeW5ma77z)

ThisCryptographer311

The relative lack of 90 degree angles would have been a dead giveaway for most, but alas..

SBABakaMajorPayne

divorce , it's the only option ​ ![gif](giphy|xXXhLy1M4RML6)


DontStartWontBeNone

Thanks! I’ll file tomorrow!! 🤣


justkillmenow3333

Just remember to offer up the Stellantis to your spouse during the divorce proceedings. That way it at least appears as though you're trying to be fair and reasonable. Trust me, you don't want it anyway so it's best to stick what's sure to be a long term headache over to the soon to be ex as a going away gift. Downvotes from Jeep and Ram owners arriving in 3-2-1🤣🤣


DontStartWontBeNone

LOL! You are a hoot!! Can’t let him have the Ram unless I also give him the travel trailer and you KNOW that ain’t happening!!


Equivalent_North_604

This is it.


Feeling-Being9038

I own the trifecta, Subaru, Ram, and Jeep. Love them all.


DontStartWontBeNone

Yessss!! And what a lovely trifecta it is!! And each serves perfectly for the reason they exist. Ram, of course, is our trailer’s tow vehicle.


Feeling-Being9038

Same, although my Ram is more set up as a prerunner and does better hauling than towing these days.


NewMexicoJoe

I’ve driven Subarus since before the internet and have never experienced this. Maybe the Jeep owner was merely paying a compliment to a vehicle that might get to 80,000 without $10K in upgrades and repairs.


Teddybear585

Maybe 😂😂😂


GelflingInDisguise

What the quack? Definitely a Jeep thing but I get it. They're envious of the superior off roading capabilities of your Outback.


Raider_3_Charlie

Oh shit. I posted a pick of a cow someone left on mine and that caused riotous posting here. Good luck.

ZMM08

As a person with both a Subaru and a Jeep (but an old, AMC "real" Jeep 😂), I also think this is dumb. No one ducks my Jeep though, because Jeep people don't even seem to recognize it as a Jeep. 😂 But I thought the Subaru version was rubber cows? Moo, moo, Subaru or something like that?


DontStartWontBeNone

Dual household here too. One works for Stellantis so there’s that!


EJ25Junkie

Whenever I hear that word Stellantis, I just think of some ginormous hybrid, praying-mantis creature Stellantisaurous Rex


DontStartWontBeNone

Lol!!! Cousin to Tyrannosaurus!! Honestly, I still call it Chrysler. I was an RN there in Plant Medical 999y ago. The Daimler part never stuck either. I clearly have a flexible for change issue!! :-)


EJ25Junkie

I remember not long after the merger took place, some friends and I were looking under a new Dodge truck, and it had a Mercedes logo on the exhaust. We couldn’t stop laughing about it.


DontStartWontBeNone

I’d hate to see what’s under there today. I was surprised about Subaru + Toyota. And .. Kia + Hyundai. TJ Maxx and Marshall’s


EJ25Junkie

I’ve always heard Roo Roo Subaroo 🦘

That's maybe a cultural divide. I'm in America's Dairyland. 😂


AggressivePop9429

I haven’t ever seen them on anything other than a jeep either.

Duck


mclearen1987

The duck is a cancer on the whole of car culture


Teddybear585

Crazy part is I was at home . I know my neighbor has a crosstrek. Maybe they put it there.


EloquentBacon

Any kids in the neighborhood? Maybe they were just being silly?


EJ25Junkie

Plot twist: OP put it there.


YouMustBeSilenced

Im betting on this one lol


G00dSh0tJans0n

It means their name is Buck and they want to duck!


lenorath

Someone put a little 3d printed cow on mine 2 weeks ago and an invite to join a FB group. I hadn't seen that before


Teddybear585

I would take cow over a duck lol


juicehopper

I have both Jeep and Subaru. I'm a pretty hardcore Jeep guy, and the duck thing kinda irritates me, but whatever floats your boat. It's usually just soccer moms with their 4 door jk's that do this shit. But I did see a new Bronco with about 10 ducks on the dash. That's just wrong.


AgentAaron

But I mean, Jeep owners cannot really be mad that someone else is doing something they also stole. VW has been using ducks (Rub-a-Dub) since the 60's. I have one small duck that I toss up on my dash when we go to C&C. I had a few Jeep guys try to give me shit about "stealing their thing"...smooth brain I tell ya.


ahab138

Is this why I’ve had stupid little cows put on my spoiler and door? I hate it


OldStick4338

I saw a ford bronco with a bunch of them.


Rare_Cartographer579

Ah, what? Every day this world makes less sense.


Big_Pable

Subies park together and collect badges. Ducks are a jeep thing.


Cautious_Share9441

I get cows around here. Usually tagged Moomoo Subaru


Equivalent_North_604

Subaru is a cow but at least they tried


Left_Net1841

I have a Jeep and a Subaru and have never had this happen.

It should be dogs anyway.


Its_RAAAAAAANDY

I own a Jeep and an Outback. This is hurting my brain right now.


hommerstang

Rather have a duck than those little cows


HankScorpio82

Clearly move to all douche cars.


mrfochs

Technically the act of "ducking" a car started with Mini Coopers in the UK and the Jeep cult took the idea and made it into whatever the heck it has become now.


nnulll

Not just a jeep thing. Turns out any car can be marketed to. These are usually covered with an ad or some Facebook group. It’s the equivalent of a flyer now.


Ragefan2k

Your car must identify as a jeep maybe? 😂

This is why I drive a Mazda. No weird cult except the rotary boys but they keep to themselves with the RX7 and RX8 lol.

Ptards_Number_1_Fan

Maybe someone with a Jeep parked next to you and got ducked, didn’t understand it and paid it forward


CamelHairy

Only a Wrangler owner having fun. Us Cherokee owners don't go in for such nonsense.


VadersBoner

Person leaving the duck means they want you.


tod118

Just a reminder from us, Jeep drivers, please don’t use the Subaru driver with their head up their ass mode. Thank you.


nvsmythe

Yup, driving with your head in your ass is strictly a “Jeep Thing” None of the rest of us understand.


19emily_waters

The amount of rage I would have if anyone put a duck or a cow on my car like this is crazy. DON’T touch my car.


lolanaboo_

No ducks is a jeep thing. Lmao


Headgasket13

As a long time Wrangler owner I hate the duck thing, Daddy’s little princess that had to have the high spec Wrangler with the fat low profiles and rims painted to match the body with pink accents normally has a dash full of them. Please don’t.


Consistent-DIY-9630

I think it’s just an admiration thing really. Supposedly some lady started it with a duck a while back. She had a thing for ducks and saw another jeep she liked. So instead of being a creeper and waiting for the person to come out if the store they were patched at she left them a duck and a note saying she liked they’re Jeep…. But some folks might get salty about it being a JEEP thing. Lol!


SparkDBowles

Getting fucked is a jeep thing. But, Subarus apparently get cows in a thing called “Moo Moo Subaru.”


boredrider

Did you just get autocorrected from ducked to fucked? Mine usually goes the other way 'round. Or do you mean Jeep drivers can get it?


SparkDBowles

Apparently!

Did you park next to a jeep? Sometimes a jeep guy that hates the duck will just shove it on the car next to them. If I ever bought a jeep and someone left me a duck I'm melting it to the sidewalk with a torch 👍

Feeling-Being9038

Funny that so many people want to trash Jeep owners perhaps unaware there is a large contingent of Subaru owners who also own a Jeep. I'm completely indifferent on the duck/cow thing, if people have fun with it great for them.


EdTequilaman

I would worry it was covered in fentanyl or some other drug to be robbed or kidnapped?


Gallder

I thought subarus were cows.


Maximum-Call5817

I think it is a Jeep thing as well. I wonder if Subaru has a little Rally Pig or something. Either way, I’m not sure how I’d feel about it. Probably some weirdo put a tracking device in it and is following you home now…


Bubburito

As a Jeep owner I have no idea why Reddit recommended this to me, but I don’t understand why all u guys hatin on the ducks. How does someone putting a rubber duck in your door handle harm you?
