    For maximum effect make sure it’s pristine clean without a molecule of dirt. You should be the only person to ever be transported in it, never take any passengers, and you must park across at least two parking spaces, four if you can manage it.

      Solid advice. Will do.

      Srsly tho, bought it because I’m leaving DFW and moving up north and thought the 4WD might be better for the winter. I do plan on taking it out on some trails at some point to see what it can do, and I’ll be installing a trailer hitch as well to help some comrades move piles of bricks. They’re…uh…building a house.

        Tbh unless you’re moving into the deep mountains, in my experience a Subaru is a significantly better choice for winter than a jeep.

          Subaru’s full time system definitely is more predictable and confident feeling in most situations for sure. You’d have to go pretty high up in the jeep hierarchy to get more practical capability than your regular base model Subaru.
