Might be joining Darky

Wow! That sounds like a good deal. Post some pics if you get it!

I spend "some" time on SubaruOutback.org. There are a LOT of fanboys over there, though. So, they seem to either be bragging about "the best cars every made" or whining about "how screwed-up the new Outbacks are, because Subaru is going mainstream now" / "Subaru is the next Toyota." (i.e. recalls, etc)

There is some good info over there, though.. You just have to weed through some of the fanboy non-sense..

Good luck, man!

...and, like Clancy said, the headgaskets on those 2.5's is a COMMON issue... Every 90k miles, I think..? There's a "service interval" on the timing belts, too. From what I've heard, it's not a "sometimes you have to do it that often." It's more of a "do it or screw stuff up" thing..

You mean like over on GM Trucks?


People do love to beat their chest as long as the group is on their side!

I had gotten so used to this place that I got really frustrated going over there. I think I took a 3 or 4 month break from that place, because it seemed like the same 20 or so people were always beating the same fWONking drums, over and over and over and over..

Since GM still hasn't fixed their AFM'z.. er.. uh... Well, you know what I mean.. Those same topics are still being beat on.. And Lord forgive the person who wants to disable their DRL's.. THEY sure as heck won't!

I'll buy it for 400 bucks.

Sounds like she is going to buy it but I will be snagging the Mecury Tracer wagon that she is driving now since it's free and runs.

The major push behind getting a car is fuel mileage. Will find out for sure on monday when the bank opens but there is a chance I will be taking in a new truck that gets less than stellar fuel mileage so I need a back and forth beater.

Post pics of whatever you end up with, Ian.
