Now we're getting this thing going! Okay, okay, I won't dismiss Subaru. Must have been my faint memory of history telling me that Japan and Germany were trying to wipe us off the face of the earth a while back, and that combining the two again might be a bad idea. Kamakaze Vanagon, or something like that. Might just take control of itself and ram a boat.

And what happens when you need it fixed? There must be a reason there aren't any combo German/Japanese auto repair shops around here, they probably don't want to get the cars that close together for fear of an uprising! (Remember, it's Friday!)

I'll do a quick junk yard check, and any other Subaru experiences/photos would be appreciated. Man, another %#**&%$# service manual to buy and memorize. -- Stuart MacMillan Manager, Case Program 800-909-8244 ext 208
