Congrats steve! That looks like it's in great shape!

for the last 12 years i've been driving a 15 passenger 1 ton ford van. With 356,000 miles on it and at 10 mpg it was time to do something different.

About time you retired the old van, it must be different driving the Subaru (even if it is one of the more wallowing estate (sorry, station wagon) models). Not sure if this model comes with the turbocharged Boxer 4 engine, if it does they're good engines and even with the turbo will get you more than 10mpg.

I recently retired an older vehicle for a newer one. Feels good Enjoy!

Anybody going? Maybe we could carpool? I dunno.

I will be there Sunday all day if anyone cares.(and possibly a few hours on SAT) I'll be there if you don't care lol. A BP python breeder I know in Vancouver, WA will have a table there. I'll probably bring my mt. kings and even one of my (Steves) Albino red sided just to display. What's a BP table without a few oddballs anyway. I'll be wearing a bright green tie-dyed Grateful Dead shirt, hard to miss.

Boxer(2.5L) but no turbo. I feel like I'm sitting on the ground driving this thing. Been averaging 19 mpg in town but that should improve once I get in the best operating shape. I can't believe someone would own such a fine machine and not do proper maintenance. I'm guessing it will cost me around $300 to do all the fluid, filters and parts needed. Once I get a service baseline things will be better.
