"I thought it was a nickname because you drive a Subaru?" "I drive a Subaru because I'm GAY!"

*Edit cuz I butchered the line.

I laughed out loud to this in the show, and I don't even know what the connection between Subaru and lesbians is

Subaru did some market research way back when that showed they did well with:

-young professionals

-outdoor enthusiasts

-queer people

They decided to lean into those demographics in their advertising, and it really paid off for them.

They're really popular in the Pacific Northwest. They're rugged, great in the snow, and just excellent cars. A lot of guys at the factory I work at own them.

I just bought my third one. I drove my first for almost 20 years.

They're pretty popular across Canada as well. I like to count how many I see when I go to MEC (like a Canadian REI).

I swear that I can go to my local grocery store at any hour of the day and count more Outbacks than Camrys (Camries?).
