What’s Up With Subaru Crosstrek Wheels?

Subaru XV Crosstrek 2013 – 2014

Subaru introduced the XV Crosstrek in with the 2013 model year.  There were many theories about what XV meant at the time.  Some speculated that is was the “15th” vehicle Subaru built on that platform.  What it turned out to be is that SV stood for “Crossover Vehicle”.  A crossover is basically an SUV on a car chassis vs. SUVs on a truck chassis like some of the giant SUVs […]

Subaru Accessories – Body Side Molding

Body side molding is one of those accessories people either love or hate.  The idea is that should someone open their car door next to your car, or a wayward shopping car is rolling towards you, it will it the molding and not the door.  In many cases, when deciding which options to add to a Subaru, my customers need to walk out an SEE with their own eyes, exactly what “body-side molding is”.
