Three Months to the Day!

I took delivery of my 2023 Subaru Crosstrek yesterday morning, exactly three months to the day since I ordered it. I'm doing yet another 3-year lease, 12K miles per year. I've done a lot of vehicle leasing in my lifetime, always my preference. With the average monthly payment on purchased vehicles topping $700/month countrywide, leasing is the only way I can afford a new car. I am fine with leasing.

I highly recommend Morrie's Subaru in Brooklyn Park, MN. I worked with two different salesmen, one of the sales managers and even spoke with the dealership's general manager. Since the auto industry has been turned upside down during the pandemic, you can throw out any previous way of doing such business. Thanks respectively to Keith, Dennis, Tina and Jerry for helping me negotiate the murky waters.

restoman just posted that Micron is building a computer chip manufacturing facility in Syracuse, NY. There are incentives in play to bring the manufacturing of chips back to the US, so future disruptions can be minimized. Good news for Glenn as well as all Americans!

I am very happy with my new Crosstrek! BTW, The Subaru Crosstrek was much less expensive to insure than the Honda's I've previously leased.

Congrats on your Crosstrek! We have an Outback but my step-son has the Crosstrek too. I think his was new in 2020. I rode in it when I visited him, yes they are very nice.

I heard that about Micron. They are expanding their offices in Boise too. And I know Boise wanted that plant that went to Syracuse, but I am glad it went there. We have such a housing shortage here.

Happy driving! :)
