2023 Touring, Autumn Green with brown leather. Sure do like it. Comes with two years free maintenance which is every six months go in for oil and filter change, tires rotated, and general inspection. New cabin filter at the end of each of the two years. Seems a waste of good oil as I don't drive a whole lot, but I won't turn it down.
Picked up new Forester today.

Congrats!
It's nice that your dealer threw in 2 years of free maintenance. Normally only the first oil change is free.

Congratulations 
Wife is very happy with her Forester and I could see driving one myself.
While you probably won't need it in Texas, the AWD is very good in treacherous conditions.
Just filled the car and it took 14 gallons over 366 miles, for a mediocre 26.1 mpg, although this was strictly local use.
Put it on a highway commute, as wife did for the car's first four years, and 30 mpg+ was typical in warm weather.
Your DI engine should do better.
Enjoy your Subbie.

Esp after 5000-10000 miles
Also being in texas climate since these tend to not warm up fast so OP will be lowering the low mpg warming up miles.
My jeep 2.0 easily warmed up 2-3x faster.
These days the ridiculous “document fees” the dealer charges are more than enough to pay for that maintenance…
It‘s not “Free”.
Congrats!
Well, I agree, nothing is ever really free, but, it is not something they had to do.
Can you post some pictures of it when you get a chance? Thank you!
Congrats! I love the longitudinal setup in the Subarus. I wouldn't mind getting back into another Subaru some day!
I loved mine! Just wish the AC worked
7 times under warranty I had the AC fixed.

So they went back to round fog lights on some trim levels. My wife and I had a 2020 Forester Premium I was going to add round fog lights to, but it was totaled by a red light runner before I could do it. We liked it so much that we replaced it with a 2021 Forester Sport, which has rectangular fog lights. Nice color.
. Blends in thanks to the shade . Great color .
