    Looks like a good program, Just wanted to add some advice on Airing down tires.
    Airing down tires really doesn't lower clearance all that much until you get down to almost beadlock pressures (10 and below) .
    What it DOES do is allow deformation under more extreme obstacle shapes, like driving over fist sized rocks, or multiple sharp ledges. It allows the tire to deform around such objects before they would, and also reduces chances of tire damage and laceration, and improves ride comfort.
    I'd advise going down to at least 14 -18 or so, For most stuff the top end of that around 18. Otherwise, it's not worth the trouble.
    You won't start losing tire height in any significant way until you get less than 10ish, which is probably too low for a rocky trail, but might be advisable in sand or snow. You don't want to take a chance of losing your bead which is a risk as you go down that far. But. there is less chance of that in sand, than in traversing a rocky slanted rocky truck trail. So if you are getting stuck in snow or sand you can try airing down to 10, which makes a big difference compared to 18. Just be aware and don't put a lot of side stress on your tires.
    Airing down to 30 is meaningless. There is almost no advantage, maybe a hair bit more smooth comfort wise, but then back on the tarmac, your load rating and mileage suffer. I wouldn't bother to air down and reair unless I was going to at least 18. I have auto valves that will do that for me automatically, and a high flow pump that will get me back up in less than 5 minutes. Even so, I can honestly say I don't feel the need to air down unless I am going on a very long offroad trail, or something really soft or slippery. Again most of the time I am in normal mode with 36 pounds. But I SHOULD air down more, especially since I have the right stuff to do it. It's just that my car is so capable with my oversided Falkens on it that I haven't felt the need much.
    Also it's good to get people thinking about it, but really X mode is very misunderstood. In a sense you are ALWAYS in Xmode in a Wilderness. The non setting is in between two more extreme behaviors. No slip, and a lot of slip. And most of the time, Xmode off is the BEST setting for mixed offroad conditions. I have been on Ice and Snow, deep sand, and I have only needed X mode once, and it made the difference and got me right out when I was spinning wheels in deep powder dry sand with non aired down tires. Most of the time however the NON Xmode setting, is actually the best choice, even offroad. You will have better performance, less wear than Xmode1, and for most conditions, better traction than Xmode 2. Just being on dirt, or taking a hard track, is NOT a reason to turn on Xmode. It's always there if you need it. It is the Compromise ideal setting between Xmode 1 and 2 behavior logic. It has benefits of both, but for some conditions you really need to focus on ONE behavior that will get you out of a spot. no spin, or momentum spin. That being said, this is a trip to get used to the fun and features of your car, so I'm not really criticizing the choice to have everyone go to Xmode1. But take it from an experienced end user who has done enough research to put most salespeople to shame, NOT using Xmode is the best choice 99% of the time, for a variety of reasons from traction to wear to gas mileage. Some of those obstacles surely benefitted from Xmode1 tho. They looked iffy even on camera, and I know a camera does not even do justice to a trail.
    Another useful tool, as long as you remember you are in it, which I have cringingly forgot a few times, is to use the CVT manual mode, and keep your vehicle in an optimal gear for some of those obstacles. 1 is usually the best choice for carefully moving thru an obstacle or set of obstacles, But you have to make sure you don't forget it because then your car will be revving too high when you get going. The thing is, Subaru's are designed to have maximum economy and shift super early, and aren't really LOCKED into a gear. For some of this stuff you are better off being in a lower gear with a slightly higher RPM for more torque. You can use the paddles from automatic mode as well for short transitions that automatically go back to auto mode, so that saves you the problem of forgetting, and allows you to tell your car you want it to stay in first gear (or go to first gear) for a few moments for maximum power and control. People will have to get used to pressing the pedal down further to get response, and it really is a thing you need to practice, even if you are good at driving manual transmission cars. These cars behave uniquely and a little manual practice goes a long way. Good trail for it.
    And hey, I forgot that these had hill descent control, because I believe it is tied in with the Xmode, and as I said earlier I have almost never used that feature. I was to the point that I didn't think my car had it, until I saw this video. And I am thrilled because there is a few places I go where the smart descent software will really help me keep control coming down some steep slippery stuff. Yay, I can't wait to try it.
    P.S. To those of you that are like me and wanted to maximize stock capability without putting in a hard lift, and just going with the respectable factory strut lift, I can absolutely confirm no rubbing with 245/65/17 Falken AT Trails (non LT version is for crossovers and are strong and light, they offer two versions). And I put them on Motegi MR139's with a 40MM offset size 7.5X17. No rubbing, and if you air down your full sized spare to about 5 pounds (just enough to hold a bead) it will fit at an angle in your spare tire well, you must eliminate the foam tool caddy. I put a bottle jack some ropes and soft shackles, a tire star, a few hitch ends, and a tarp and some towels under there to help support the bottom of the spare well hatch, which is also the cargo floor.

    Nice! I’ve been on that same trail in my Jeep and I wouldn’t have thought a Subaru could make it. respect! Ps… don’t try it in the winter or early spring. There are some shaded steep spots that stay icy for a long time and you need lockers and lots of momentum to get back.
