Everyone has the spirit of adventure inside them. Sometimes they just need a little nudge to bring it out. In this charming road-trip commercial, a young city couple ponders what they should do first in their new Subaru Forester. Inspired, they immediately embark on a whirlwind road trip filled with off-road adventures, unusual encounters with the locals, and a bowl of dangerously hot diablo chili. By the end, their Forester has reminded them that there’s a great big world out there, and a Subaru can help them explore every mile of it.
