You take your dog in your vehicle with you because of course you do. Why have a dog if you're not going to spoil it, after all? Camping, hiking, or just sunny days in a park are all great excuses for a drive with your canid comrade. But as a dog owner, you know that a regular vacuum isn't going to pick up dog fur out of upholstery. If you just want your car clear of doggie detritus without necessarily springing for the full shebang to make your vehicle like-new, we offer a doggie detail just for you…

Parades are fun to watch, and thanks to collaboration with Subaru of New England and the Abbe Museum, it was a blast to participate, too.

Subaru of New England let us show their beautiful 3-row Ascent with the fancy lettering on the doors. We are so grateful for their support. (We have a few of our own Ascents on hand if you want a closer look!)

All Subaru vehicles are equipped with maintenance-free batteries. The term "maintenance-free" can be misleading, though, because these batteries do require some attention to keep them clean and efficient.

It is really important to have your car's battery checked by a Subaru-trained technician regularly. A battery check includes examining cable connections for cleanliness and tightness. Loose or corroded connections can drastically diminish your car's starting power.

"We know a lot of teachers, and we know that many of them dip into their own pocket to help keep students fed, particularly at the end of the year like this," said Mark Politte, referencing the fact that 1 in 4 Maine children are food insecure. According to No Kid Hungry, most teachers spend hundreds of dollars of their own money on food for their students over the course of a year. "We're invested in helping these teachers continue to do the good work they do and letting them know that they're not alone."

We held a special invitation to our owners to be the first people in Maine to get an up close look at the all-new Subaru Ascent.

But we love to share, and we can't keep the excitement to ourselves, so we invited WABI TV5 to help us share the details!

And this being Teacher Appreciation Day and all, we couldn't neglect the opportunity to team up with our local Hannaford Supermarkets store to give $100 Hannaford gift cards to each teacher at a school selected by our guests.

We invited people to celebrate the success of Share the Love with The Grand this week. Grand executive director Nick Turner, Grand board members, and every guest who purchased a new Subaru during Share the Love were welcome to join us in appreciating our guests' accomplishment.

Stanley Subaru and our guests Wednesday presented Nick with a check for $15,000 raised through Share the Love.

Are you excited about the Ascent? We are. But it's one thing to know the details, and it's another thing to see how they stack up against other vehicles. So, with that in mind, let's take a look!

You’ve kept your vehicle going for 100,000 miles. Congratulations!

We think you’ve done something special, so we want to reward you with something special. When you service your vehicle at Stanley Subaru, we’ll give you a 1% discount on parts and labor for every ten thousand miles on your odometer, starting at 100,000!

(No, we’re not going to make you work that out each time. We made a chart. It’s very pretty.)

What, um, what is the word for when you're wildly jealous your boss got to preview the Ascent in person? Mark got to check out a preproduction model of the amazing 3rd-row Ascent.

As thanks for their outstanding service, we're partnering with At Home to provide complimentary detailing to engaged volunteers. “At Home does really meaningful work,” says Mark Politte, owner of Stanley Subaru. “These volunteers spend quality time in their vehicles with members of At Home. Their work helps people continue to live in their homes while remaining independent. It's pretty remarkable, and we want to thank them with something dedicated drivers can appreciate—a thoroughly clean interior and exterior so they can have a beautiful, comfortable driving experience.”
