Andrew,

what do you need all that power for, do you live in
the jungle?(jungles in New Zealand?)

Its a shame they paved almost every road in
America(except N. wisconsin) Becouse i would love to
have a Synchro with the SVX set-up. Ironically
Americans have the most Sychro's/Suburus on the
planet, its just too bad we've paved everything.

For 10 years i drove a 90' toyota truck 4X4 V6 with a
4" body lift and 33"12"-50's mud tires on 10" wide
rims. I sold it when they developed my favorite off
road spot(in Florida) I drove to Baja Mexico MANY
times and never once used the 4X4, but I used that
horsepower..He,He!
GOD I MISS THAT TRUCK.
