PZEV EMISSIONS
a brief simple summary
|
UPDATE 3/1/12- ALL FORESTERS WILL HAVE PZEV EMISSIONS STARTING WITH APRIL 2012 PRODUCTION (a brief, simple summary) The EPA says PZEV is the cleanest running gas car on today's market based on emissions testing for carbon-containing compounds, oxides of nitrogen, particulate matter, and other tailpipe nastiness. What it does 1. A charcoal canister catches unburned gas left in the engine when it's turned off so it doesn't just evaporate. 2. Fuel injectors close tighter when they're not in use. 3. It has a finer mesh in the catalytic converter, as well as optimized placement of precious metal. 4. The engine's electronic brain is set to run hotter at start up so the catalytic converter heats up and works faster. |

HD Radio - In the 2011
Forester, Subaru was the first Japanese car company to offer HD radio
Digital radio broadcast
signal for improved clarity
The ‘HD’ in ‘HD Radio’ is
part of iBiquity Digital’s brand name for its digital AM and FM radio
technology.
It does not mean either
hybrid digital or high definition, it is simply the branding language for
this new technology.
HD Radio broadcasting is
free, there are no subscription fees.
You can get digital AM and
FM stations, including HD2 and HD3 multicast channels.
HD Radio broadcasting is
your favorite local AM and FM stations broadcasting digitally, producing
radically improved sound.
Very clear. AM radio sounds
like FM, and FM radio sounds like a CD.
Unwanted pops, hisses and
dropouts are a thing of the past with an HD Radio receiver."
HD2 multicasting means more
FM channels and new programming available from local FM stations, which
you can only hear on your new HD Radio receiver.
Across the country, local
FM stations are offering a wide variety of new formats on their HD2 channels:
reggae, blues, classic jazz, future country, new alternative, deep tracks,
bluegrass and local artists.
The service includes
iTunes
Tagging. iTunes Tagging lets you capture information about a song on
the radio and store it on your iPod by pushing the "Tag" button on the
HD Radio receiver. When your iPod is connected to iTunes, a list of tagged
songs will appear which can be previewed, purchased, and downloaded.

How to get a car
inventory, dealer trade, ordering
Inventory - Dealers are offered cars for inventory a month or so in advance. The quantity can vary from month to month. Most cars will have a extra options or upgrades and usually these are features that are popular in the area. Some, but only a few, will not have any extras at all. Cars in stock are available for immediate purchase and dealers might be more motivated to move them.
"Dealer trade" or "locate".
This is when a dealer looks for a vehicle in another dealer's inventory
and then trades cars, ie swaps cars, with that dealer.
This means the requesting dealer has to
have a car the other dealer will accept back in trade.
There are many people at the
dealerships
and at Subaru involved in the process.
The vehicle is usually driven from the
other location. This can take place within days if a vehicle is already
in stock someplace.
Pre-sell, incoming: You wait for a vehicle the dealer already has incoming in their system.
Order:
If you really want a specific vehicle,
you can order it. Subaru requires customer information and a deposit.
Once ordered Subaru will give an expected
delivery Month.
Within 2-5 weeks, there will be date,
an ETA, an estimated time of arrival. This is not a promise the car
will there on a specific day or week and the frequently changes. Your dealer
can watch for updates.
Orders are filled as the right model, transmission,
and color is available, on a first order in, first filled basis.
Usually a vehicle arrives at a dealer
within 5-10 weeks (typically 7-8), but delays can happen at any point along
the assembly and shipping process, so be patient.
If you are requesting a popular car with
a waiting list, or an uncommon car, it can take longer.
If a certain individual option or accessory
is not available for installation, the car will still be sent to the dealer.
The accessory can then be added by the dealer but the cost might change.
The dealer wants you to get your car as
quickly as you want to get it!
