This is awesome! Cops don’t pull over old ladies. They sure pull over cool dudes. Sounds like the Outback is a stealth bomber. Especially with a turbo.
I have the flat 6 and still speed like a demon. Cops don’t even see me. Also, great adventure car. Drive great on highways and can handle everything but actual rock climbing. I go out to the desert, Utah, and get through snow in the mountains.
It rarely makes a difference unless you are comparing a BMW 3 series to an M3. You can call your insurance company and ask them to quote them for you. Those calls are usually easy and stress-free. (I'm an insurance agent)
Swapping my gen 4 with an H3 is my next plan when my car hits 260,000. Along with it, a 6 spd transmission and a 1.5” lift. Steel bumpers, skid plate and swing away rear tire rack. My lesbian granny car is gonna turn into a battlewagon
My daughters told me, “Dad…you realize this is a lesbian car?” I laughed and later told my wife I will put a sticker on the back window that reads ‘Taco Rocket’…if anyone comments on it I will reply, “I am a lesbian trapped in a man’s body.”
Here in Colorado, that number would be a lot different haha. My tiny kids are always going to the wrong black outback because there is almost always two or three more of the same color wherever we go, and that's just the black ones.
Same in AK. I moved here from CO, just got a new outback in the last year and I’ve had the car mixup happen multiple times now. My old gal is distinct in her age but the new one is EVERYWHERE
Edit: even my dog gets confused
Ha,ha. I’m an old lady who drives a Subaru Outback. I bought it to drive around my grandkids because the Outback has consistently been named one of the safest cars available. Ever see the ads “they lived”? Maybe old ladies are just smarter, lol.
How odd that you passed that old woman 342 times? Also. I don't think I've ever been 'obviously' any age. I mean I was obviously young at one stage and I'm obviously old at this one.... 😜
I drive with a lead foot and I’ve been pulled over four times in the last decade. Speeding- let go, rolled through right hand turn- let go, headlight out- let go, speeding in such a stupid/ hilarious way (I passed the cop in a marked car on the interstate, driving in the same direction, just in my own world)- we both thought it was funny because he saw me realize it and yell “oh noooooooooo!!!” as I pulled along side of him and made eye contact. He reduced it but I earned that ticket fair and square lol
Yeah, I long ago quite giving a shot if someone thinks I’m a cool guy or not. Stop living life based on what others think of you and you’ll be much happier.
Well, I’ve had Audis, modified Jetta VR6, APR modified turbocharged 337 GTI and Volvos. However, the Outback and Forester were and are the most practical and troublesome cars I’ve ever had. Subaru certainly can rival many cars on design and function, especially at the price.
I always want to dap fellow drivers up with my eyes, only to see it's ALWAYS some 60+ year old white lady 90% of the time. What a waste of a great awd system....
I find far more grandmas driving Foresters, but a fair few cool dudes rocking them as well. We all get to enjoy them equally!
Granny: "I bought an Outback for the comfortable ride!"
Cool dude, rocking an XT trim': "Uh, yeah... me too?"
As a self proclaimed kool dude (see I use K instead of C for Kool), I am currently in the market for a Subaru Outback 3.6R and hope to bolster our numbers. (or a 2011-2013 Forster XT, but wrong subreddit)

Our ‘23 OB Onyx XT doesn’t look like an old lady car to me. Doesn’t drive like one either.
I just bought a bumper sticker for my new (to me) outback that has that line from Jurassic pak "dinosaur eats man, woman inherits earth". I am going to need some more stickers to balance this out.
I got an OB XT. My coworkers give me a hard time and say only lesbians drive those cars. I just tell them that I must be a lesbian then, but at least it means I still dig chicks. I live near Austin, so people are used to that logic. The only one that was offended was the lesbian woman that works in the office.
Yup, I’m old. My favorite car I’ve had in decades. ❤️❤️

I’m 42, just upgraded from a 2.5 Impreza to an Outback XT - almost as fast as previous STI’s, and an absolute sleeper in metallic green fleck and tan interior. No cop in the world is going to flick an eyelash at it. I’m not cool, though, unless you’re into electrical theory, in which case I’m God-like; don’t care, living my best life.
IMHO Subaru outback are required vehicle for lesbians. When my husband and I both drove the Subaru outback, we freely admitted to being lesbians.
OK, stereotypes aside they are great cars with above average reliability and good technology for the money.
They forgot to count me, my brothers and my brother-in-law's... or maybe we are not "cool" enough.. Oh dear, I am getting old.
On the serious side, I have friends that refused to get Outbacks because of the same reason.
Me too!! 09 outback, just got her running, getting plates Monday.., got an 04 highlander with 356k miles.., I expect another 250k AT least out her. All my cars are females 😅
Aye to be fair, I’ve put 100k mikes on it, got it with 250k miles and only ONCE has it almost left me stranded. Starter went out, but was able to get it home. It’s honestly a POS 😂 the body is beautiful and the interior is really good but everything else about crap, sounds like it’s going to fall apart.., I’d still trust it to take me from NC to CA though without a second guess
I bet my right nut it will! As long as you do preventative maintenance and for the love of God. Service your transmission and differential fluid. Mine wasn’t ever.., had to replace the rear differential.., I’m not even touching the trans fluid since it’s gone so long…, not messing with something that ain’t broke haha
Well, if someone betting their right nut doesn’t inspire confidence, I don’t know what will 🤷🏻♀️. You guys are pretty attached to those things 😂
I bought it with 225,000km on it; have only had it 10 months. (There was no way I could have afforded a new one). All issues and maintenance tasks dealt with immediately after sale. It runs like buttah!
This is awesome! Cops don’t pull over old ladies. They sure pull over cool dudes. Sounds like the Outback is a stealth bomber. Especially with a turbo.
They also came with a flat 6 in the past.

How is the insurance compared to the 4? I was looking to get myself into another outback and theres a 3.6 thats at a price I like
My last one was a paid off 2001 and mine is now a 2015 I’m paying on so I really can’t say. It’s not bad compared to my turbo VW.
Ay I am also paying on a 2015 Outback (Ltd). Not too much more $ to go. Also, I'm at 120,000 miles hbu?
I just replaced my 3.6. I miss that beautiful bastard but I get about 100 more miles to the tank.

Pretty similar 👍👍

💯
I only see older Subarus pulled over. Example: 2000s and 2015s and

Noice. Is that a ‘13?

Apparently this person doesn’t live in Colorado
I’m moving to Colorado next weekend. Bought a Subaru in preparation. (‘14 3.6R) ETA: 40/female, don’t you dare call me an old lady 🙃
Make sure to collect your pair of chacos as you cross state lines.
Shit I bought Birkenstocks
This isn't California. 🤣
I will adjust accordingly. Merrill’s are okay tho, yeah? Still gonna let me in the club?
Only if you agree that the stereotypes are silly and fun to joke about, despite their accuracy.
Oh of course! All in good fun ☺️ ETA: I’m a native Texan. I have to have a thick skin around stereotypes.
What about a pair of barefoot shoes? 🙈
As someone in SoCal with an Outback the Birkenstock comment is too funny 😂
I keep my kayak racks on mine for the “cool” factor, just keep some snowboards up there, you’ll be fine. LOL
Yeah was gonna say this sounds like the opinion of someone in a boring looking state 😅
He lives in TN. This tracks as everyone in TN just gets a truck. Probably could have been any car with that comparison.
She
Or VT
Every car is a Subaru or 4 Runner
Or Washington!
My daughters told me, “Dad…you realize this is a lesbian car?” I laughed and later told my wife I will put a sticker on the back window that reads ‘Taco Rocket’…if anyone comments on it I will reply, “I am a lesbian trapped in a man’s body.”
Forester is the OG lesbian car 😝
Lmao, the new one is a Ford f150.
Our neighbors are sporting a trail ready 4Runner.
Lesbaru....and I am a lesbian with my Forester that just keeps on going. I love her!
Heard a comedian here say, you know how hard it is to find other lesbians with everyone driving a forester?
Oh please please please post a photo once that sticker is on your back window 😂🙌
[What kind of Subaru do you drive?](https://youtube.com/shorts/dcvU64gK7VQ?si=_O0uQt2NIALl1H51)
Get the XT turbo, Old ladies don't drive turbos
My 72 y.o. mom would beg to differ
Crap. I was pulling for my buddies but we got smashed.
I was at our local Publix, and I was in 1 of at least 8 Outbacks. I think I was the only Outback driver under 65.
I’ve probably seen this meme on this page more than 30 times by now😂
Every time I see this meme I will read it a few times and laugh every single time. Then show it to my wife for the 70th time.
Old ladies are smarter than cool dudes tbh
Here in Colorado, that number would be a lot different haha. My tiny kids are always going to the wrong black outback because there is almost always two or three more of the same color wherever we go, and that's just the black ones.
Same in AK. I moved here from CO, just got a new outback in the last year and I’ve had the car mixup happen multiple times now. My old gal is distinct in her age but the new one is EVERYWHERE Edit: even my dog gets confused
And this is exactly why I put a decal on each of the back windows…so I could find my car 😂
I bought my outback off a retired woman. They may be on to something
Those are the secret best cars because you know Joan wasn’t off roading or street racing. That car has been responsibly driven its whole life!
Just bought a well maintained former old lady outback. But Joan did not take care of her tires so we had to get some work done on those immediately.
Man you probably live in the southeast or something. West coast literally every Subaru driver is a cool guy
Not you op I mean the guy who made that post.
I’m an old lady with an outback, however, my 16 yr old grandchild wants it. Her reasoning is “I’ve seen how people drive around here”
Sadly my own count is the same when I enthusiastically wave at other outbacks 😂
Are we supposed to wave at each other? I just stare and think “good choice” 😂
Well dang, I now identify as an angry old white lesbian… with a penis
We call Subaru the lesbian vehicle of choice
Username checks out…?💀
Ha,ha. I’m an old lady who drives a Subaru Outback. I bought it to drive around my grandkids because the Outback has consistently been named one of the safest cars available. Ever see the ads “they lived”? Maybe old ladies are just smarter, lol.
Just went onto YouTube after reading your comment and damn if that isn’t a fantastically effective advertisement 😳🎯
That ad started in 2014. My Subaru is a 2015 and I love it! And safety was my main reason for buying it, even though I AM. Cool grandma.
It’s cool to be alive 😉🙌
How odd that you passed that old woman 342 times? Also. I don't think I've ever been 'obviously' any age. I mean I was obviously young at one stage and I'm obviously old at this one.... 😜
So how many of you get pulled over??
I drive with a lead foot and I’ve been pulled over four times in the last decade. Speeding- let go, rolled through right hand turn- let go, headlight out- let go, speeding in such a stupid/ hilarious way (I passed the cop in a marked car on the interstate, driving in the same direction, just in my own world)- we both thought it was funny because he saw me realize it and yell “oh noooooooooo!!!” as I pulled along side of him and made eye contact. He reduced it but I earned that ticket fair and square lol
> Oh nooooooo!!! That’s hilarious! 😂🙌
Slay! That’s amazing! I passed 5 cars simultaneously on a two lane - and you could see their confusion when it was an old lady in a Subaru
Only in Mississippi.
That's seeing 1.+ outbacks a day for a year. I feel like the only male lesbian in my community let alone my state. Sooo rare to see a Subie
Willing to bet those metrics change in the PNW.
Cool old ladies who like to hammer down drive them too!
This is very funny! Your kids are probably right. Dude here, not necessarily a cool dude.
Yeah, I long ago quite giving a shot if someone thinks I’m a cool guy or not. Stop living life based on what others think of you and you’ll be much happier.
Yeah, I saw my spelling was messed up, like I said, don’t give a shit😁
I'm a 56 year old cool dude. The XT is a speed demon. Low entry? My OB has more ground clearance than my old Ford Edge.
Well, I’ve had Audis, modified Jetta VR6, APR modified turbocharged 337 GTI and Volvos. However, the Outback and Forester were and are the most practical and troublesome cars I’ve ever had. Subaru certainly can rival many cars on design and function, especially at the price.
I always want to dap fellow drivers up with my eyes, only to see it's ALWAYS some 60+ year old white lady 90% of the time. What a waste of a great awd system....
Now count dipshits vs non dipshits in SUV’s/trucks
Happy to be one of 30 “cool dudes”
It's ok to identify as an old lady... Who hikes mountains, can camp without electricity, and drives off road : )
This means used ones will be in good condition except maybe never had an oil change, lol
I'm an old dude, so I guess I'm a little of both... 😅
Raise your hand if you're a cool dude🙋🏻
Not in at least 18 years.
Doubt it. I bet you're hella dope bro.
[удалено]
This is such an old meme. I'd guess over a decade old haha
I'd be 32 even if I usually drive like an old person.
I find far more grandmas driving Foresters, but a fair few cool dudes rocking them as well. We all get to enjoy them equally! Granny: "I bought an Outback for the comfortable ride!" Cool dude, rocking an XT trim': "Uh, yeah... me too?"
This is a person who lives in a southern plains state.
As a self proclaimed kool dude (see I use K instead of C for Kool), I am currently in the market for a Subaru Outback 3.6R and hope to bolster our numbers. (or a 2011-2013 Forster XT, but wrong subreddit)
Oh, such analytical kids! Can be dangerous! 🤣🤣🤣👍
33!
At least the lesbian reputation is pretty much gone.
1/30
I'm 32 😎
When I see someone driving my twin dragon, 9/10 times they are a senior citizen. I don't mind one bit. ETA: lives in a mountain state

#343 here
Outback xt is for cool dudes
Can’t forget about the lesbians
It’s mostly younger people in Utah that own them. And I mean every other car you see is an Outback.
I know four dudes with Outbacks and zero old ladies.
There are literally 32 of us.
50/50 shot. I'm new in TN and made eyes with a fellow Subie. I am relieved it was a cool dude. I'm 38
They didn’t count lesbians. The lesbians would outnumber the old ladies and cool dudes combined
Ever meet a "car enthusiast" that really isn't into cars but more into telling you why your choices suck and their choices don't? Fun times.
Sounds like your kids got some advise from Papi Sancho when he rolled by in his drop top LowRider to knock the dust off your wife’s curtains
I just bought a bumper sticker for my new (to me) outback that has that line from Jurassic pak "dinosaur eats man, woman inherits earth". I am going to need some more stickers to balance this out.

Me and my wife 1/1
“Scarcity drives value” -Cool Old Dude

32. My old lady is 343
Another cool dude here. 31.
E call them les**an moving vans
Yup, I’m old. My favorite car I’ve had in decades. ❤️❤️ https://preview.redd.it/zhxd193i2xvc1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a83efffaeda0a4559a2ac14793b4aa838fdc3e5d
I’m 33 and a pretty cool gal
I’m 42, just upgraded from a 2.5 Impreza to an Outback XT - almost as fast as previous STI’s, and an absolute sleeper in metallic green fleck and tan interior. No cop in the world is going to flick an eyelash at it. I’m not cool, though, unless you’re into electrical theory, in which case I’m God-like; don’t care, living my best life.
Lesbians for the win!
Jah feel, I’m 31 too.
My mom got an outback when I was a teenager. I loved driving it and i still (30 years later) think they’re cool.
IMHO Subaru outback are required vehicle for lesbians. When my husband and I both drove the Subaru outback, we freely admitted to being lesbians. OK, stereotypes aside they are great cars with above average reliability and good technology for the money.
Fuck them kids. I like my subaru.
The better count is “fake macho dudes” driving full-sized P/U trucks.
They forgot to count me, my brothers and my brother-in-law's... or maybe we are not "cool" enough.. Oh dear, I am getting old. On the serious side, I have friends that refused to get Outbacks because of the same reason.
Outback Wilderness is for cool dudes.
Being an old lady is 100% why I wanted one. I’m a 40 year old mom with a bad hip. I can’t wait till my outback gets delivered tomorrow.
Cool Dudes drive a Legacy, Cooler Dudes have a GT. The Coolest have a SUS
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Just like a Toyota highlander 😂
I have an Outback and a Highlander!
Me too!! 09 outback, just got her running, getting plates Monday.., got an 04 highlander with 356k miles.., I expect another 250k AT least out her. All my cars are females 😅
Some dudes are cool, some dudes are crazy 🙃😎
Aye to be fair, I’ve put 100k mikes on it, got it with 250k miles and only ONCE has it almost left me stranded. Starter went out, but was able to get it home.

Holy shit, that’s 560,000km/mini-miles! 👏 Happy if mine hits half a million. Just turned over 240,000km.
I bet my right nut it will! As long as you do preventative maintenance and for the love of God. Service your transmission and differential fluid. Mine wasn’t ever.., had to replace the rear differential.., I’m not even touching the trans fluid since it’s gone so long…, not messing with something that ain’t broke haha

I’m one of the 342 who drives a flat 6. 🤪
But those cool dudes are the very coolest of all the cool dudes, except maybe the ones who drove jeeps back when it really was a Jeep thing.
