  • Not exactly what you asked, but the only problem I’ve found with Subaru (crosstrek / legacy) is lack of pick up. It’s worth it to shell out for even a slightly upgraded engine. (crosstrek wilderness) If thats important to you and you read a review that says it’s a problem, absolutely believe it. It hasn’t bordered on dangerous, but it is very noticeable at times.

    Other than that 100,000+ miles later and some regular upkeep and there has been absolutely no issues. Shifts fine, although sometimes the rpms hit higher than I’m used to.

    I do believe the WRX is manual if that’s more your style, and there are Crosstreks (which is essentially an Impreza with more clearance. Even people at the dealership have accidentally called it that) and Foresters that are strictly automatic, or so they say.

    Oh, and the windshield wipers are lame. It’s like the windshield is too big for the wipers, and the wipers move to slow. If it starts pouring outside, be prepared to be driving 90% blind. Rainx barely helps.




  • If you just read Promise #3 in the Forward of the Project 2025 document, I believe that’s the point.

    Any time globalization is mentioned, it’s in a negative way. They call the global US treaties and economic policy a woke, progressive failure. They blame much of America’s problems on our current path of global leadership.

    They have to pull it all in and weed out what they dont like before they try to expand in a way that fits their image. (Oil and manufacturing) It’s how governments like this function.




  • I agree with your premise, but from what I heard the union leader didn’t give a fuck. He said he wanted to speak at the DNC as well and went on about how nobody is helping the workers and they only help corporations.

    Here’s a write up and video(there’s a link to the actual speech)

    Labor law must be reformed. Americans vote for a union, but can never get a union contract. Companies fire workers who try to join unions and hide behind toothless laws that are meant to protect working people but are manipulated to benefit corporations. This is economic terrorism at its best, an individual cannot withstand such an assault.”
