I f you’ve never been out in a four-wheeler before, Ryan Weisenfeld has some advice: go with someone who has. The sales representative for  Olympia Chrysler Jeep  is a member of the Capitol City Crawlers, a group of 4 x 4 enthusiasts that routinely takes beginners out for a spin. “We help people get used to it,” says Weisenfeld. “You really need to go with someone who has experience when it’s your first time.” The area surrounding Thurston County includes several great tracks for 4 x 4s, ranging from relatively easy to quite challenging. For those just starting out, he recommends Tuhuya ORV Park near Belfair. Comprised of 23,000 acres in Mason County, Tuhuya has 84 miles of trails available and makes an ideal place to learn. “That’s where we go when we take customers on runs,” says Weisenfeld. “There are bypasses for every obstacle and a lot of people go there just to observe.” All vehicles will require a Discover Pass. Located near Buckley, Evans Creek ORV  offers 45 miles of tra

Time behind the wheel of a Subaru is more enjoyable when you have a clear view of the road. Knowing how to care for your wiper blades and when to replace them will give you the results you need in a variety of conditions. Windshield wipers wear down with time. If you hear odd noises or see streaks or jerky movements from your wiper blades, debris may be affecting their performance. Start by cleaning the blades with a soft cloth and a mixture of water and mild soap. Lift the wiper blade from the windshield and clear off the rubber with the cloth. If you have a rear windshield wiper, remember to clean it, too. Be careful when returning the wiper arms to their original position so you don't damage the blades or your windshield. If cleaning doesn't help, or if you notice excessive cracks or tears in the rubber, then you'll need to replace your wipers. For the best results on your vehicle, stick with genuine Subaru wiper blades. Our service professionals can recommend the

Where Love Meets Hope This June, in support of the Subaru Loves to Care initiative, Tacoma Subaru is partnering with The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Washington/Alaska to donate and deliver blankets and message of hope cards to community members fighting cancer at Mary Bridge Children's Hospital .  Our partnership with  The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Washington/Alaska  (LLS)  hits close to home for us here at Tacoma Subaru.  That's because a very dedicated group of employees have been fundraising for the annual Light the Night Walk that supports LLS for over 7 years now.  Every year they work tirelessly throughout the whole year to meet their goal. Why? Because in 2009 our parts manager's son was diagnosed with Burkitts Lymphoma at the age of 20.
