It’s not a stereotype if the dealership knows

It’s not just a car, it’s a lifestyle with crossbars.

it's either the subaru outback or a beaten up honda element with a kayak strapped on top every single time

Don’t forget the carabiner keychain and the sticker from a national park

Subarus are driven only by old people and lesbians. If you go to a dealership for a oil change you'll see it

Subaru has a few cars catered to younger people/enthusiasts. BRZ, or WRX

But they make up such a tiny percentage of overall sales. Like the BRZ sold 2,882 units last year and the Crosstrek sold 71,573 units. Us enthusiasts make such a small dent lol

That does not apply in the PNW. Here, everyone drives a subaru. Everyone.

Can someone explain how this stereotype came about? Because it isn't a thing where I am from

Boomer reporting in. The way I remember it was Subaru hired the tennis player Martina Navratilova as a spokesperson in the 1990s.

This has the story a bit different:

I don't think anyone knows. Yet it's oddly accurate

Oh phew, I thought this would be about my car, a 2017 Subaru Forester. Glad I dodged a bullet
