It's hard to believe, but we are already nearing the halfway point of the year 2016. So while it seems like just yesterday that new 2016 Subaru models were rolling onto our Mitchell Subaru lot for the very first time, we can already start looking ahead to 2017 model year updates arriving sooner than you might expect.

One new 2017 Subaru model we are particularly excited about here at our Canton, CT Subaru dealership is the 2017 Subaru Forester. Slated to arrive sometime this summer, the new Forester variant comes with promised of enhanced efficiency, improved automotive safely, and…

Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial commencement of summer festivities--from barbequing to camping, boating to bonfires, if there's one thing we all want to be doing this upcoming holiday weekend, it's being in the great outdoors with our friends and family close by.

And if there were to be an auto brand dubbed the official car of all things outdoorsy, we think it's safe to say that Subaru would almost unanimously be named the victor.

Storytelling can be a truly powerful force. Sure, we could continue to bombard you with the facts and figures, the Subaru brand's lengthy list of both standard and available safety features, and tell you the shocking percentage of Subaru models purchased ten years ago that are still on the road today.

But Subaru thinks (and we here at Mitchell Subaru agree) that when you hear one of its many "I Survived" stories, you can truly get a feel for just how much of a priority the automaker places on its customers' well being.

We don't mean to brag, but like a proud parent seeing their kid score the game-winning goal, or one cruising around town with a "My Child is an Honor Student" bumper sticker, when we see the brand we so highly respect being recognized with prestigious industry awards, we can't help but to gush a bit.

As part of Subaru of America's "Share the Love" campaign, Mitchell Subaru of Canton donated over $18,000 to Gifts of Love, an Avon-based nonprofit organization that helps meet the basic needs of individuals and families in Central Connecticut experiencing a financial crisis so that they can achieve and maintain self sufficiency.

The Share the Love campaign donates $250 for every new Subaru vehicle sold or leased during their winter sales season. Since the…

Since being founded in 1926, Kelley Blue Book, The Trusted Resource®, has established itself as one of the most trusted and relied upon vehicle valuation and information sources for both consumers and the automotive industry at large. Simply put, we here at Mitchell Subaru, along with millions of others, take what KBB has to say very seriously.

It should be no wonder, then, that we were thrilled to hear that not only was Subaru named Kelley Blue Book's most Trusted Brand and Best Performance Brand for 2016

Subaru models are incredibly popular here in the New England area, due largely to their standard all-wheel drive. Be that as it may, there are a number of other compelling reasons for Canton, CT area car shoppers to make their way to Mitchell Subaru to take the 2016 Subaru Legacy out for a test drive...and the experts at Autotrader seem to agree with us there.

When we're young, we always seem to be yearning to be older and more independent. What we don't realize, however, is that while growing up does indeed grant us newfound freedoms--like the freedom to drive our own car, for example--it also bestows a great deal of responsibility upon us, as well.

Take a look at one of the Subaru brand's recently posted commercials and see how one five-year-old comes to the realization that owning his very own Subaru Legacy might to be the happy-go-lucky fantasy he's always had in mind.
