Our Subaru journey originally began wwwwwaaaayyyyy back in North Carolina in 2016 with a Premium Crosstrek (Felicia 1.0) from Raleigh, NC. We moved to Fort Polk, La that same year. We have family up near Tyler and were in the area needing an oil change. Long story short we walked out with a 2015 Touring Forester I was not comfortable in the 2016 Crosstrek (I don't remember the salesmen's name). The Forester (Gertrude) was our only car for over a year. We first met Dorian when we were in town, again, to look at the Ascent and to get our Forester serviced. Wonderful car, but we weren't quite ready for it yet. We also looked at the 2019 Crosstrek too. We finally decided to purchase another vehicle, several months later, another Premium Crosstrek (Felicia 2.0). This time a 2019. For whatever reason the 2019 Crosstrek is designed way better than the 2016. Again, we only had one car at the time, my wife was away at a conference with the car and I was having to ride my bicycle 8 miles one way to and from work. Needless to say, in this Louisiana heat it got old riding my bike. But hey, I lasted over a year. I literally called my wife, told her to call Dorian, tell him what she wanted and to have him call us when the car was in. Momma got a brand new ride! I'm way more comfortable in the 2019, we even drove all the way to Myrtle beach, SC with ZERO complaints from yours truly! Anyway, we went in for services yet again, as we are about to move to Colorado Springs, CO and were needing extensive service done on the Forester (Gertrude). Roughly around $2500 worth. We put many miles on the Gertrude, over 111000. A lot for only being a 2015. My wife stated that I might as well get a new car and use the $2500 that we would have spent on repairs on Gertrude as a down payment on something new. Well......we told Dorian to make it happen and we walked out with a new car that same day! Helga is now apart of our family and we couldn't be happier with her (2019 Ascent Limited). Thank you so much Peltier Subaru, and Dorian, we are customers for life! Next up, (Name TBD-I'm digging Zoomer) WRX STI for my wife's graduation present for completing her PhD!
PS: With the Ascents 5000lb towing capacity we impulsively purchased a 26ft camper (2019 Sun Trail 215BH) the very next day from Gander Outdoors! What can we say, it was an expensive weekend! YOLO!
Also, of note, there are 3 Subaru dealers closer to us than Peltier Subaru. We went to two of the three for oil changes, but we are bougie and have standards and those standards were not met like they have been extensively met at Peltier Subaru! Don't go anywhere else! Go see our man Dorian and tell him that Mitch and Rachel sent you! read more
