photo2001 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Hi all, I'm thinking of trading in my Forester for a Tribeca. I have a few questions I'm hoping you guys and gals can help with. My main reason for trading is I need a bigger storage space. Can anyone tell me what the height and width of the hatch opening is? (btw, I'm only interested in the 2008 5-seat Tribeca). Also, is there much more of a step-in height to the driver's seat? For any Tribeca owners, how do you feel about the vehicle? Thanks for all responses!

photo2001 Posted November 22, 2007 Author Share Posted November 22, 2007 Thanks for the replies! Apparently the Tribeca only has 2 inches more floor to ceiling height in the hatch opening than my Forester. Not gonna work, oh well. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarupusher Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Yep, that is why I gave up on the "big" Subarus and got a Chevy truck. I had a Forester or two and was excited when I first heard about the Tribeca. The original Tribeca with the caveat of only Premium gas made the operating expense the same as my truck. I still stayed loyal to Subaru by getting an Imp for commuting. BTW my sister loves her Turbo Charged Forester and it meets 95% of her hauling needs. My truck gets called for the other 5%.
