I agree their list is too short. How about:

crowd, pile, heap, assembly, union, bunch, gang, congregation, load,
collection, ...

Of course, their character only fits one: a loose association of Subarus.

all of the outta touch latecomers say that! ;^)

We ran the open thread for quite a while, asked 2 other forums and this
NG to participate.(evidently a lot of folks just can't be bothered to
register-vote-unregister). I think we have 27 good candidates (though
from previous and most recent indications - looks like 'cluster' may win).

Feel free to vote for your favorite - we left off more words than you
can imagine. It's a free country - you can use whatever term you like.

Indeed, I have been out of touch ('been traveling).

Well, looks like the astronomers won (the Pleiades = Subaru are an open,
albeit somewhat untypical cluster).

Constellation is just wrong (that's pretty much the opposite of a
cluster: stars that look such that we like to group them visually in the
2-D projection we see in the sky, but they are not related by birth nor
distance to each other).

I still like association better, because cluster infers a relationship
that these cars, if gathered at random, would not have.

While traveling in the bay area, I just saw an association of 6
Foresters in an Andronico's (upscale health and World food) parking lot.

It isn't over yet - some folks want a name that's 'aggressive' like
troop,convoy - swarm, has a following (due to alliteration and perhaps
monosyllabic?) kinda a fun exercise, kinda bandwidth wasting too.

There are few Subarus here in D/FW are, comparatively, and when we drove
our new OBW to Co.Spgs. to visit our oldest daughter my wife got excited
just seeing 2 Soobs parked next to each other and one wasn't ours!

just go register-vote-unregister if you want too - but those USMB folks
have been a nice bunch - you might stay.
