@Romanmicagearguy I have been wanting to see an outback vs an Audi allroad on a snow climb. I wanna see which has the BEST awd system once and for all. You guys should do it. Do a ski slope and see which one goes farther.

@LikwiDgAngStr Love your snow climb idea. We've added it to our list. Now we just need to get a hold of the new Audi Allroad.

@Nellybui Im very sorry if I seemed to come on that way. Really, I am. I just get all hyped up when people dont agree with me. Aha. I do think Subaru's system is good, but its just the way Mitsubishi shows their AWD system in action while Subaru cheats in their videos comparing them to ford, toyota, honda, volkswagen, and nissan. It doesnt seem fair, but it would e nice if an unbiased source came along and compared the cars' AWD system such as the roller test...

@gadgetguy4000 When did I say the Outlander can't go over twisty terrain? Never! Because I know it's a good car too...And yes, I said "I think" because I know I dont have absolute knowledge, but you seem to believe you have it ;)

[gadgetguy4000]

@Nellybui I can see where youre coming from..you havent seen the outlander in action, i happen to know subarus cant go over twisty terrain since my friends dad has an outback 2012 and he was disapointed and its a brand new one i have a 2010 outlander and if you want proof that it can go over twisty terrain i have a short video prooving me right. Just look for outlander auto locking diff on my channel, and you said 'I THINK..." its a matter of opinion but mitsu's system is better

[Nellybui]

@gadgetguy4000 And yes, the Symmetrical AWD is better than the S-AWC (not saying the S-AWC is bad, it's a good system too). The fact is that the Subaru Symmetrical AWD is more about mechanics, when the Mitsubishi S-AWC is more about electronics. In that sense we can say the S-AWC is "more advanced", but it doesn't mean it's better. Because the Symmetrical AWD (mechanics) coupled with DCCD (electronical gestion) is just awesome. It's, I think, the best AWD system actually.

@gadgetguy4000 Lol it's BS. That's funny because everywhere I search, I find the same numbers : 19/21/25 mpg. Prove me that you're right, but it's gonna be hard, cause you're not ;)

i wouldve took my WRX wagon on that hill

[gadgetguy4000]

@Nellybui no she has the Outlander GT s-awc 3.0 V6 that gets 30 :) and actually she just recorded 32 a few hours ago...and how is it better when mitsubishis system is more advanced and works better?

[Nellybui]

@gadgetguy4000 I dont mean fuel economy...can't you understand the word "efficient"? Well, let's say it's "better". And by the way to get 30 mpg, you must have the 2.0L 2WD, so you can't compare...but if you take the 2.4L 4WD, it does 27 mpg when the 2.5L from Subaru does 29 ;)

[gadgetguy4000]

@Nellybui more effiecient? i have no clue what you mean by that but if you mean fuel economy, then the mitsubishi gets 30...yes 30 my mom has one and she gets that and the subaru get 28 :( sorry pal
