Oh no, what have I done...

Damn I'm sorry.

Yeah gotta find some tin snips to cut open the filter for confirmation. If it is gone I'll either do a reman long block or a JDM pre 06 EJ253

[DCIV]

If that’s the case....how much will you have in this thing?

I have about $5k in it now. Reman would probably put me over $8k by the time you include incedentals. JDM would be about $6500 total.

About right for a used Subaru

[tabasco122]

It's like a boat. The 2 best days of ownership are the day you buy it and the day you sell it.

Granted Subaru has a 3rd one. The day you got it running.

[Chris GTO TT]

At least Bajas are a lot more valuable than other NA Subarus

My first one had two of those days in one lol

So glad I met you all before I ever purchased a Subaru

[Duck Vader]

I still debate on it. Mrs still really wants awd. I've tried telling her that her fwd soul with the tires she has is more than enough than she will ever need but she still wants awd eventually. She has the 4wd jeep, but she wants something safer. Subaru tends to get pretty good safety ratings.

[ChargerX3]

Lots of cars have good safety ratings.

[DCIV]

Why will she not drive her jeep when it does snow again?


Coop

[Duck Vader]

She will drive it in the snow.

Awd daily for rain and going up to the mountain is what she wants. Afraid to drive the jeep more than a few miles. Won't take it to the mountains or coast.

[mjannusch]

And you still have that Jeep why?

[Duck Vader]

It costs next to nothing to sit in the garage and use as a 3rd vehicle should something break down until we can afford a better 3rd vehicle.

[alienviking]

I never understood that logic.. how about putting the money for a better 3rd vehicle into a better first vehicle that wont break down?

[tabasco122]

you cant buy a third vehicle with air.

Eh. I understand it. We have a 3rd vehicle. It does come in handy. But his wife seems like me and wants a vehicle for every situation.

A third car? What’s that like?
