Thanks Chase - you took me back to my solo 1988 backpacking trip in your Autumn through beautiful BC and Alberta so it’s giving my age away - I’ve owned 10 Subarus mainly Foresters here in South Australia but now own a Hilux for those offroad/touring trips - my stock Foresters have been very reliable and very capable in our Victorian/NSW Alpine country and remote outback - I may still get another Forester for a project weekender - John in SA
Oh awesome, I bet that was a great trip! I'm definitely grateful that I live here, it is a beautiful part of the country. Sweet! You should totally get another Forester, I might be a little biased though haha
I just bought a 2005 Forester today, as my first car. In a couple days, im going to go and pick it up. 190 miles one way, in snowy conditions. I'm really exited to get it! Been waiting many years now :)
@@Chase_Schrader Meh, not much. Maybe some bigger tires and a slight lift. But then again, you can't go offroading anywhere in Norway, what so ever. That's just sad :(
I know exactly where that is ! It’s so weird seeing it on video I took my mitsu RVR there, such great views! I spent the night there and looked at the stars in bed through my pano roof 😉 also great video wow good editing and lots of different angles and footage! Very well captured !
@@Chase_Schrader they are im assuming putting wrx suspension will make it handle way better xt handles good stock but i snow i did notice back end went out a little i do know if its lowered it will handle like an Impreza, very rare in Scotland xts i bought mine from England there that rare haha , my first forester was a SF5 S turbo that handled slightly better both stock but it does say online the S turbo SF5 has better handling was scored 80 and xt was 50 haha, but yeah lost my s turbo too rust and my xt will be needing welded by august when its mot yearly test is up
this is one of the most insanely cool things ive ever seen. cant wait to do this with my forester.
Thanks! Yeah it’s a lot of fun!
Just pulled my 01 forester out of moth balls to turn it into an overlander
@@excaliburfpv9113 sweet that will be sweet!

That’s always a good idea, they looks great with a bit more of an aggressive setup! Oh damn, that’s no fun
Looks like very fun drive. Best when in a group just in case. Your forester did very fine. Thanks for a well made and edited video
It was! Haha yeah I don’t think I would go on my own unless I got a lot more recovery gear. Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude this might be my favorite video you've ever done
Thanks man! I’m really trying to focus on make some quality content; I gottta step up my game with you and Logan making that straight fire 🔥

TransAlta is always a good time, I have definitely camped out there a few times, although I usually like to go more north! Thank you, I appreciate it!
Nice av got an xt in Red and manual Rare after here in Scotland most are non turbo and auto love it just snowed so ill be taking it out today
Oooo that awesome! The turboed cars are so much fun to slide around in the snow

Oh yeah, it might! Haha nice those S turbo SF5 are sweet, but yeah rust is always disappointing. I am always fighting it.
Subaru just makes some really fun cars

A small lift and some 16s with beefier tires and it should do awesome!
