Better angle. Feel like that back panel needs something now. Lol.

No. It balances out the front panel.

I really want an outback in that color... maybe if I decide I'm so over invested in my WRX I'll paint it the wilderness blue

Her car. Her choice. I just think it looks "off" a bit to me. But totally her decision. Completely her car in her name.

First wash of the year.

Also washed the front of the truck (parked off to the left of the image). Didn't wash the vette but it could use it as well soon.

Re: Why?
Have you ever thought about building a carport or something off to the left? That'd be perfect for washing cars out of the sun.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Ya. We talked about it. Especially since 3 cars stay outside. Not sure how big though we can go. There are ordinances with how close we can build to the property line.

If it's not fixed to the ground it's not a building

True but I'd rather have something strong. We get crazy winds
Re: Why?
I'd definitely want one bolted down. You could always sink the legs in buckets of concrete, but that looks a little trashy.

County code requires a permit process and everything before installing a car port.

Debating on what to do about an oil change.
I'm at the year mark without hitting mileage for a change and I like to change at least 1x a year.
However I'm getting close to the 30k service which does oil, gear oil, brake fluid, etc. I'll be at that right around the mileage that this current oil should be changed at. The 30k service runs between $500 and $1000 depending on the "level" I pick.
Do I change the oil and do a late 30k service or push the current oil past the 1 year mark and drive it until I'm closer...
Feel like it's a waste to change oil now then have to do the 30k. Sitting at right under 27k right now.

Re: Why?
If you’re changing your tune then change it. Maybe don’t swap the oil filter if it’s not long. But oil change is cheap in the grand scheme of things.

Re: Why?
There is no tune or anything on the Subaru. Stock except for lift, tires, and armor.
At least $100 for oil change. Need to do it at a dealership to keep lifetime powertrain warranty

Re: Why?
I only put 2500 miles on it because I also drove truck and vette over the past year. Lol.

Re: Why?
$100 is a cheap investment to make sure they don't complain about the warranty if needed.
Also.. you drop $100 or more on random stuff on a daily basis for your cars so just do it

Re: Why?
Oh I thought you had a tune on it when you did the lift. In that case don’t do it. But if you do, just do an oil change when it’s needed again and not at that service interval.
