Hi all, My name's Blair, I'm an academic working with Japanese history, and I'm a 2012 Subaru Forester owner. Perhaps I'll be owning 2 Subarus soon. Actually, that's why I came looking through here--to see how other people came to buy their Subarus in Minnesota. I'm actually in Western Wisconsin, so I have the odd location that Eau Claire is the same distance from me as the Twin Cities. I lurked for a while before I figured I should make an account and contribute as best I can... at least I can like posts now! And translate anything from Japanese to English if needed. Cheers!
Yeah, and then life hit us like a ton of bricks the day after I posted. Among many things, we're also undergoing the high oil consumption test in our 2012 Forester due to...high oil consumption! So, no new cars for now! But thanks to the suggestions from this forum, we'll give Morrie's a shot on service and see how that goes.
